Cowboy Bebop Thread - Live-Action Adaptation cancelled after one season (it was shit)

[Pentex]

Fuck, why do I look things up?
This is Gren from Jupiter Jazz:

And they've declared Gren is a heckin' valid Bowie-esque nonbinary.

At this point, the easiest way to predict how Netflix will write the story is what is most likely to piss off long-time fans of the series. Here it goes:

Vicious was mercilessly pounding Gren's pooper in the trenches of Titan. Vicious, unable to come to terms with the blazing inferno of his homolust framed Gren for espionage. Gren volunteered to have his body experimented on because he realized never was a 'man' in the first place. Gren sets up the deal for Red Eye with Vicious so xir can make xir's anguished declaration of love of Vicious, who terrified of his own sodomite urges, runs away. A fight ensues between Vicious, Gren, and Spike, Vicious shoots down Gren and runs away. Gren gives an LGBTQ monologue and asks Spike to put xir in xir's ship and set course for Titan, where xir was last happy getting xir's rectum wrecked by bad boy Vicious.

Ew, it's not even hot like the original. Kill it.

At this rate I'm expecting Ed to be revealed as being played by Desmond is Amazing or another groomed child victim.

I think the show has already said that there won’t be an Ed.

 

[Doctor of Autism]

That's both good and bad. It's good because Ed won't be bastardized and have some angst bullshit for them. Bad because it removes the heart from the Bebop crew.

True. Just seems like a pointless adaptation.

 

[Doctor of Autism]

True. Just seems like a pointless adaptation.

That's not true. This adaptation is needed for the Insecure American demographic

 

[ToroidalBoat]

Irony is, remember back in the 2000s when online fan outrage would actually get projects canceled?

Remember when that steampunk Batman thing fell through because fans did not like it?

(I think that's what happened.)

But yeah, nowadays they must preach wokeism, regardless of what the audiences say...

Cosplayers always do better job than Hollywood.

When people cosplay Faye it really activates my autism whether they style the front part like it's her hairline or bangs. I personally think it's her hairline

edit: I hate it when prudes bitch about Faye and use her as ammunition to complain about anime SeXuAlIsInG women, they're never happy, even when a character clearly has agency over herself and works it like she does. It's harmless (and hot), I'd rather that than current year anime where they're all paper-thin tsunderes who might have big tits but are drawn with the huge heads and tiny hands of children with annoying whiny voices.

Also it's been a while since I watched Bebop but I thought Gren's attitude over his gynecomastia was a giant weird cope, he's managing the unfortunate side effects of a drug without being in a position to get it treated properly, not an E-doping faggot.

Yup. Taking experimental drugs does that. Which is why troons can't relate that someone might be given hormone-altering drugs against his consent.

EDIT: Had to fix "their" as it was causing subject-verb disagreement. Because troons keep fucking with languages.

Now you know how I feel since I used to ace English in school.

[StarkRavingMad]

This remake's PR has turned out exactly like I predicted.

It's all about trashing the fans and morally posturing at the altar of wokeism.

Ah yes, the tried and true formula of something that is guaranteed to not be good. I'm not going to even bother with this shit.

And shame on you if you hate-watch it and give Netflix the streams.

Remember everyone, the opposite of love isn’t hate, it’s indifference.

Don’t take the outrage-bait, just laugh in their face and move on with your day.

That's exactly what I did with the Kevin Smith He-Man debacle.

Heard enough about the show, saw how that soyboy shill reacted to the criticism, and then nope'd right out of there. Still haven't watched that crappy show, and I don't intend to.

Irony is, remember back in the 2000s when online fan outrage would actually get projects canceled?

WB originally wanted to do a Justice League movie all the way back in the 2000s, there was going to be a US remake of the UK TV series Spaced, but online fan dislike of these killed both projects.

Now Hollywood shows open contempt for the online fans and intentionally does things to piss them off.

The contempt comes from Hollywood executives believing that they are better than the plebs. A LOT of rich people think they're far smarter than the average person when most rich people are probably the stupidest people I've ever met. They believe that their ideas, their philosophies, their stories and their politics are superior to the masses. Its why they get angry. Because these dirty inferior plebs are DARING question their superiority.

Their ideas are simply BETTER than the original and the fans are just a small minority who represent nothing, after all, the name is just there to attract new viewers.

And of course since there is no introspection, failure is blamed on the plebs so it keeps happening while retards keep getting promoted.

Go back to uber eats you stupid faggot, you're a nobody and a retard and the internet's punching bag you fucking cuck. God Mundane Matt is a fucking retard. Maybe write another book on how to be a successful Tik-Toker since the book you wrote on YouTube did so well.

Oh and Hollywood is not going to give a loser like you access, so stop trying to deepthroat their corporate dick.

Shouldn’t this guy go back to collecting boulders instead of having hot takes

I can name only two instances of a live action adaptation of a Japanese Anime/Manga/Whatever that worked

Edge of Tomorrow: mostly because it did its own thing and still kept AYNIK's spirit
And Alita, which I'm amazed even worked.

I was honestly surprised when I found out Alita was based on Nip manga and not just another new YA creation (along the veins of Jupiter Ascending and Hunger Games).

But yeah, Western adaptations of Japanese media historically never worked well, which you can boil down to typical Hollywood arrogance.

tbf Japan doesn't have a much better track record of adapting their own stuff into live action, either
