I dont know if theres alrady a thrad about this, guess not cuz i couldnt find it :p

its the Official long version trailer from the live action adaptation of the worldwide famous series 20th Century Boys, by mangaka Naoki Urasawa, the same autor of master pieces like MONSTER or YAWARA!

In a press conference, where they introduced the actors, they showed this 4 min leng trailer for the movie.

This is one of my favorites mangas, and if somebody likes it too, this is something you should watch, even if the live action its not as good as the manga, it should be a interesting watch.

The manga was awesome and I think it could actually be a pretty good live action. I can't wait to see it

This will most likely fail. Even if it is an adaptation of 20th CB. There's no way in hell that they're going to capture the spirit of the manga. I'm hoping I might be wrong, but past cases of mangas being adapted into live action clearly show that failure is pretty much guaranteed.

It's true that most live action things are pretty bad but I have a feeling that this one might actually be okay. I could be wrong though..

Live Actions movies are not esactly as the work they are adaptating. This has always been like this, if you expect it to be a true and accurate copy of the of the original, then you will be dissapointed.

I always have this in mind when im abuot to see a Live Action adaptation, and i always enjou them. But hey, Death Note movie wasnt at all like the manga, still it was pretty good. Live Actions got their own style.

Maybe the reason why Live Actions arent that good as the originals its because japaness actors really suck :p

Yeah, that's really the reason why. If it wasn't for that, I would have really liked the Death Note live action
