kiggy007I have no idea why there are suddenly a torrent of live-action projects being green lit in Japan.
FMA
From the look of the cast Al most likely be CG, I guess that'll be easier than practical effect. The guy they cast for Ed is not really that short 5'5" (I looked at the still) so I guess the rest of the cast member will be considerable taller than he is. His height is important in plot if they want to take it further or they can just gloss over it.
Tokyo Ghoul
Mmkay. Masataka Kubota the man that plays Kaneki looks old for the role though, he's 28 yo.
Gintama
This is one project that made me immediately said "not gonna be good". Out of all manga/anime in Japan they picked Gintama for life action? It's not that Gintama is not good but more like it comics (as in comedy) don't work in real life, well at least I feel that way. They can go for the more serious arch but even that is very difficult to pull off.
