"And if you're wondering who Faye Valentine is, she's one of the main character's in the series and a fan favorite."
Fans of Cowboy Bebop hate Faye. I mean, you kind of have to.
"Sony released a full-length animated film titled Cowboy Bebop: Knockin' on Heavens Door in 2001 where it was greeted with immense praise from fans worldwide."
I'm pretty sure that most fans weren't thrilled with the movie, and if any praise was paid it was far from 'immense'.
The point is, conceptually Cowboy Bebop is already very American. If anything can be translated to a Hollywood produced live-action movie it is this, but I'm sure it'll still be terrible. I am a gigantic fan of the show, and I have no desire to see it brought around again. The package is complete. Whatever point Wantanabe was trying to make was already made. All they can do is throw together some 2-hour long filler episode about Spike's past (about which we already know enough) where he confronts Vicious at some ominous location with cool music. It still won't be Ballad of Fallen Angels, so why try. If it is just some story about them chasing a bounty, like the other movie, then why bother. What is the point? I like the series for a lot of reasons but the average Bebop fan isn't the same as the average fan of those junkie animes. I have no desire to see Spike and the gang get mixed up in some wacky adventure. The story was magnificent but it is done, let it be dead. |
