    This worked only if the Tenchi cast is actually in it. I don’t see them blush1

    One of the things I have a hard time with is also Eastern vs Western adaptation, because the western adaptation would invariably be white-washed, and also try and change everything to fit into a stereotypically money-making but generic movie with elements from Tenchi, I’d love to say that wouldn’t happen, but Hollywood’s track record hasn’t exactly been great to anime.

    The only reason I bring that up is because a western adaptation would be completely western, and an eastern one comprised of all eastern casts.

    Director: Either Joss Whedon or James Cameron

    Joss Whedon because he owes anime a part of his career (literally), but in saying that, he knows how to take eastern elements and make them work to more mainstream western audiences, so Tenchi would be something I think he could really do.

    James Cameron because, well, James Cameron is one of the greatest Sci-Fi directors to ever direct, period, and IF ANYONE could do justice to the Sci-Fantasy epic that is Tenchi Muyo, it would be him.

    Another thing I would like to see (and what ADV had in mind when they had (has?) the Evangelion live action movie, was have some of the original english voice acting cast make cameos, I think it would be only fitting that at least once, each of the girls would run into someone in a store or someone during the movie who would actually be Petrea Burchard or Sherry Lynn, as a nice homage to the fans showing this movie knows where it came from.

    I really don’t know who to cast for everybody really, but that’s my 2 cents.

    Those are also why I think Whedon or Cameron are good choices to direct.

    As for music, I went with Steven Jablonsky due to his work on Transformers and Battleship, as I believe for my vision he can make a good convincing soundtrack.

    As for trailer music, The Glitch Mob – “Becoming Harmonious (feat. Metal Mother)” from “Edge of Tomorrow” Trailer #2:

    Thought up another idea:

    A crossover with The Big Bang Theory, called “No Need for Sheldon Cooper,” in which either a.) Sheldon, Raj, Howard, Penny, and Leonard end up staying at the Misaki Shrine after losing their passports while on vacation (no thanks to Sheldon Cooper), and chaos ensues and that’s even before they find out the girls are aliens. It gets worse when they do find out. Or. b.) Sheldon Cooper goes to Japan to confront someone he met on a science forum over an argument about string theory – someone by the forum name “CuteCrabGirl” (three guesses who that is >=3).

    Either way, Sheldon would drive Tenchi & Gang crazy.

    SHELDON: “You’re in my spot.” iloveit1

    Director:Ang Lee

    Scriptwriter:Joss Whedon

    Music and songs composed by:Yoko Kanno

    Insert songs:Sung by Maaya Sakamoto

    Cast:Ming-Na Wen as Kiyone

    Johnny Depp as Yosho

    Sarah Michelle Gellar as Ryoko

    And that’s all I can think of for now castwise.

    Synopsis:While chasing the renowned Intergalactic thief Ryoko to Earth Kiyone’s ship is damaged and she is forced to

    land near the Masaki shrine.There she faces off against Ryoko in a final battle where both girls are seriously wounded.

    Ryoko manages to slip away to a hideout where she has ready for such an emergency.

    Later Tenchi coming home from school encounters the wounded Kiyone and manages to half carry her home with him.

    What Kiyone doesn’t suspect or know is that her long lost partner Mihoshi is already staying at the Masaki Shrine having

    crashlanded there two years earlier.

    The reunion turns out to be none the happiest as Mihoshi is still the total klutz.

    Meanwhile objects begin to disappear from the area around the shrine,with the help of Tenchi and his grandfather the two

    GP dectectives manage to trace the missing articles to the cave where Ryoko is in hiding.

    After a brief fight Ryoko decides to surrender after catching sight of Tenchi.

    Meanwhile a UFO is reported by locals and it unexpectedly attacks the Masaki Shrine…

    Johnny Depp as Yosho…. I think it can be done. playing an old man who’s a jurai prince would be a interesting role for Depp. I like it.

    What about Ayeka, Sasami, and Washu? What’s their role in your vision?

    Moved to main Tenchi discussion because, well, it’s about Tenchi!

    One night in mumble we actually had quite the extensive discussion stemming from what famous actors Disney would cast if they got Tenchi, which then evolved into who could play who in a live action scenario, some goofy, some legit, all great suggestions, and of course before I let others make their points and I make a whole long post myself….

    Well, what actors would you’ve chosen to play who the cast? I’m curious.

    If only we had recorded said mumble night, because we went on, and on, and on, and we really did have some ringers (and of course many humorous ones that weren’t). We even got into who would handle the score and which bands could cover the OST.

    Can’t remember everything, but I do remember our suggestion for live-action Ryoko!

    (I bet she’d love to do her hair up all crazy for the role.)

    While the thread and mumble discussion focused more on Disney, I like this opportunity to form a “dream team” for a live-action adaptation. I don’t have time to list all the criteria, but here goes:

    DIRECTOR: Wong Kar-wai (In the Mood for Love (2000)). Though perhaps best known for aforementioned romance piece, via 2046 (2004) Wong demonstrates his ability to also engage in sci-fi, and in my vision of a live-action adaptation of Tenchi Muyo! the emphasis would be on romance and less on the more fantastic elements (because let’s face it, there are still things that can only be pulled off via animation, and trying to literally bring to live action certain facets of the franchise seems ill-fated to me).

    2046…why didn’t I think of that?…Still, that’s a good choice, Who.

    If I were to run Toonami?

    Well, since it’s currently in the Saturday 11:30-6:00 run, that’s 13 shows. Well, for one thing, no Star Wars. That Clone Wars series should stay in the daytime. No non-anime American cartoons (Boondocks is the exception, though), so Sym-Bionic Titan is also out. Anime only.

    And these are the anime I would put on the run:

    11:30: The Boondocks

    12:00: Super Dimension Fortress Macross (2006 English dub)

    12:30: Accel World

    1:00: Gundam 00

    1:30: Outlaw Star (uncensored/uncut version)

    2:00: Cowboy Bebop

    2:30: Gurren Lagaan

    3:00: Tenchi Muyo!/Tenchi Universe/Tenchi in Tokyo (uncensored/uncut versions)

    3:30: Love Hina

    4:00: VanDread

    4:30: Geneshaft

    5:00: Hell Girl

    5:30: InuYasha: The Final Act

    Washu + Skuld = Fun and Chaos! 😆

    I suppose Urd might be able to give Ryoko a hands up on how to win Tenchi’s affections by selling her a love potion.

    I’m surprised none of us as so far come up with the ultimate crossover featuring Mihoshi:Tenchi/Gilligan’s Island. 😆

    But are we really prepared for Gilligan and Mihoshi together? Is there enough insurance in the Multiverse to insure the

    chaos that would reign?

    Well, even though GreatDragonAD is doing a MLP crossover with Tenchi, I would love to read one in which Pinkie & Mihoshi are together, and the way they behave in front of both the Tenchi gang & the Mane6, they would react like, “Oh my God/Celestia! It’s like having two Mihoshis/Pinkie Pies!” XD

    I didn’t even mention The Shadow Chronicles movie that came out a few years back which continued the

    Robotech legacy as another possible reason for coming out with a new Macross series.I should’ve though.

    Just shows how popular it continues to be even after over a quarter of a century.

    As I’ve might have mention, it was Robotech that got me hooked on anime in the first place, when I first saw it on Sci-Fi Channel’s old Cartoon Quest in the 90’s (in fact, I remember the first episode I saw, Ep. 11 First Contact). However, it was also through Robotech that I got into it’s original course material, Macross. Specifically, when I saw the OVA Macross II for the first time in early 2000, that cemented my love for the original source material (even though Macross II is consider non-canon). Before the VF-25’s of Macross Frontier, The VF-2SS of Macross II was always my heavy favorite valkyrie in the franchise.

    Plus, over the years growing up, I’ve always built LEGO mocs up of veritechs and valkyries from the series, as evident by these pics here:

    http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=62041

    I currently have built a smaller version of the above ATAC-01-SCA SPARTAS/ Veritech Hovertank (that can fit in the palm of my hand), as well as a fully functional VF-1J based on Max VF-1’s moc-ups, however, I have yet to take any pictures of them yet. Just waiting for the right time. ^^;

    But anyways, I’ll always be a Robotech fan, first, but I’m mostly neutral, as I enjoy both versions of the franchise. Either way, I’m looking forward to a new Macross series. I would love it if it were a reboot of the original series, or basing it on the Macross: The First manga. That would be awesome, reinventing the original series for a new generation. =3
