Good thing she doesn't wear it a lot.
Your literally describing the demographic these live action adaptations are made for. They're made for insecure Americans who think all animation is immature.
If she would have just said "we wanted to go with the original look but for live action purposes it wasn't feasible for action scenes", none of this would be happening.
They are literally an essential aspect of her character though, the way she looks is an essential aspect of her character.
One of the cleverest things about Bebop that sets it apart from most sci fi is the, I don't know what exactly you'd call it, not anachronistic technically, but that blending of present day elements with sci fi, ie they're on a space station, but it just looks like Tijuana or they're on a city on Mars but it looks like 1980s Hong Kong.
Much better.
Post nudes so we can properly judge her lack of T&A.
Just search 'Mr Roosevelt'
One of my favorite background details of the show. It's a nice touch to see a lot fo what's on Earth in Bebop's universe, seeing as humanity basically transplanted itself into the Solar System and built all sorts of things that existed on Earth mixed in with higher tech.
It's depressing they seem to be turning her into a stronk female or a Ramona Flowers type cunt. No more multi layered sexy ladies are allowed it seems because the speds in charge seem to think Faye was always fan service.
Nice touch getting one of her with her arms over her head, holy shit they look like man-tiddies in that one.
Some people just have an unfair bias against anime, I remember Sean O'Neal, a writer for the AV Club, tried to watch Cowboy Bebop among other animes and just couldn't get into it due to the fact that it was anime.
It's funny too because Bebop turned out to predict what the future is actually like, here we are in the year 2021 and yet many things still look the same as they have for decades.
This is the actress they got play one of the hottest characters ever?
They want the clout for anime that comic book superheroes got thanks to the live action movies.Im sure it has been asked before, but is there a reason why directors are more fascinated with turning anime, cartoons, etc into love actions? Besides the (rather stupid) belief that animation is just for kids, I can't really see any reason to spend so much money on a film that will not fully capture the beauty or art of the show they are replicating from. Sure Cowboy Bebop isnt as outlandish compared to Dragonball or Monster Hunter but it has a certain noir tone to it that would be difficult to capture.
I just feel that making an animated movie would be the better choice, but it feels like Hollywood now a days want to see who could take the biggest crappiest dump on Japanese shows and make hardcore fans ree for all eternity.
I wouldnt be surprised if Hollywood tries their hand on a live action My Hero Academia or Demon Slayer.
jesus fucking christ how can any sentient being cast those pathetic half-assed bolt-ons for Faye
His gun is a very specific real life model, though. All of the characters in Bebop have very specific firearm models that exist irl, that's just another thing that appeals to fans of the anime- it helps to add to that "modern day real life stuff transplanted into a sci-fi future" vibe of the show and is just generally a treat for gun nerds in the audience. A character's choice in firearm can also reflect a surprising amount of that character's personality, past, values, and lifestyle.
I mean, a good chunk of the fans are pretty unhappy with John Cho's casting for reasons already stated in this thread. The reason why nobody is pissed off at John himself is because John hasn't been a dick about the whole situation, while Daniela has. Turns out that if you don't act like a raging asshole, people tend to not have beef with you as a person.
