[s]Let's just say every attempt America tried to make a live-action movie out of an animanga franchise[/s]

Ahem. Well if cartoon-turned-movies like Transformers and Last Airbender have the respective fans cringing hard, I present you:

Just no.

(Side note: while Scarlett Johansson isn't a bad actress, I just can't erase the image of Black friggin' Widow pretending to be Makoto Kusanagi. So yeah not really looking forward to the US' take on Ghost in the Shell.)
