Cool cowboy was 1 of the few animes I thought were actually decent, I hope that Keanu does the same hairstyle though. I don't really know who else would be caste for that role though what did you guys want for him?

With the way Hollywood has been going lately, just be grateful they didn't cast Jack Black.

Spike is fluid. Keanu is rigid. Not good casting, at all.

That's assuming this movie actually goes anywhere...

As odd a disappointment as the live action DB movie FOX is also distributing...

Then again, can't say anything until the trailers...

There's already a trailer on Youtube. It's just as bad as it sounds.

Yeah, I groaned when I saw this too.  At the least, you can take comfort that this will finally bomb Reeves' movie career so much that he'll never defile anything ever again except for a Bill & Ted remake.

I'm looking forward to it. If only because they may keep the music and I love the music :P

I'm not sure if they'll wind up using Yoko Kanno's music if they can pay jazz musicians here to pony up their own soundtrack.  If they can get Wynton Marsalis or the trumpet player from this concert, I won't care if Keanu Reeves also plays the roles of Faye and Jet.
