I'm shocked they didn't change the name. It's one thing for anime fans, but the reaction of normal people to "Bubblegum Crisis" is to
assume it's a comedy.
I admit this was one of my first thoughts too. "No way is the average person gonna go see a movie called Bubblegum Crisis." But hey, I guess that
didn't stop the rest of us from viewing it
Star: the image I posted, to me, looks like Priss' suit on the left (with some moderations, it seems) and the D.D. on the right. But you're right, it
could be one of the K-suits. It looks too clunky to be a Boomer (or at least I'm hoping that's not a Boomer).
Casting-wise, the article says they want two Caucasians and two Asians, and another article I read said they want a mixture of newbies and A-list actors. Over
the years, I kept hearing people suggest that Tia Carrere play Priss if there was ever a live-action film. But what does everyone here think? Who should play
who?
(I would argue that Priss is probably only half-Japanese, since she has brown hair, but I suppose it might be hard to find a haafu to play her...)
