AstroNerdBoy Taika Waititi Ready to Destroy “AKIRA”
Hey gang! I got pinged last week regarding Taika Waititi’s next project. It seems that his announced Star Wars project is going to wait until he finishes working on his next project — a live-action remake of AKIRA. 😑 Here’s my video on the topic.
If Thor: Love and Thunder proved anything, it is that Taika Waititi shouldn’t be given the keys to write, produce, and direct a film. That’s not to say he hasn’t done good stuff in the past. But I just can’t imagine him doing justice to AKIRA.
I would also like to say that in the video, I called AKIRA a great movie. But I went back to my Community Anime Review and discovered I didn’t care for it that much. 😅 But to be fair, it has been almost 20 years since I watched it. I don’t think I want to rewatch it, but since all of this dropped, there is a part of me that would like to give it a gander.
Maybe if Taika actually gets the moving going, I’ll rewatch the anime movie.
