Get hyped.
What even is this?
Like a live-action Naruto movie would be magically better if it was made by a black, gay woman?
Why the hell even drop this in there except to be hateful and inflammatory?
I'm gay and I can't stand people picking my battles for me and being so damn sensitive and pandering.
What the fuck does race, sexuality or gender have to do with making a movie about magic wizard ninjas?

That's the stuff of nightmaresGet hyped.
This literally cannot be good, it doesn't matter how they choose to adapt it. The source material is just rotten shit.
I've got poor vision but even i can see the point flying over your head as though it were moving in slow motion.I hope the cast is full of Asians just so that some Gaffers here can realize that it won't magically make the film a good adaptation.
Lionsgate exec: Damn it, we're out of YA franchises to adapt, and we like being a semi-major studio. What can we do?
Temp: Manga is kinda like YA...
Lionsgate exec: GET ME ONE NOW

What is this from? I take it just a bunch of cosplayers got together? Because it looks damn good. Only one I don't care for is Sasuke, but mostly the person dressing up as him. Face is a bit too...old.Hate this idea. They better at least make all the characters Japanese and not the usual Hollywood bullshit of making everyone white.
But who am I kidding. Dragonball Evolution and The Last Airbender is a thing.
I doubt it will ever actually happen. Kinda hope it won't. I don't trust Hollywood to get Naruto right, and I'm not eager to see another Dragonball Evolution.
I can't think of an anime -> live action adaptation that is even tolerable or decent.
An adaptation of a medium that only produced ONE awesome movie (speed racer is awesome and I will fight anyone who disagrees) after numerous attempts to be directed by a first time (white hetero man) director with only special effects credentials ?
WHAT COULD GO WRONG ?
I can't think of an anime -> live action adaptation that is even tolerable or decent. The decision to feature Naruto and his gang of ninja weirdos is going to look incredibly bizarre.
The source material is fine for how strictly it will probably be adhered to. They're going to make Harry Potter except Ron goes evil and more knives than wands.
The only hope for the movie is to be so over the top terrible that it's entertaining but the source material isn't necessarily the problem.

Does Edge of Tommorow count?
Pretty much. Hollywood can go head and whitewash the character of Naruto but sasuke hiruzen etc would have to be AsianSasuke better be Asian. Naruto can be white I guess.
What in the flying fuck does that have to do with this?

Kinda. It's a very loose adaption, but the movie still uses the light novel's basic story.

I was thinking more like X-Men, but I guess Harry Potter works too. Both incolve schools for people with superpowers. Of course it's understood Takeshi Kitano will be part of the cast even if everyone else is white. Would he be the old hokage or Jiraiya? We all know Grimes is gonna make her film debut as Sakura. Either way and I can't wait to see the Rock as Bee, even though Bee's not black.The source material is fine for how strictly it will probably be adhered to.
