INITIAL D REAL LIFE MOVIE
Mux213:
SupraSaiyen, well it wasn' tposted by someone else and sence a lot of discussion about it was going on...
tinlunlau, I wonder how much CG they will use, so far from the footage that has been released they've done all the racing scenes for real..
KillJoy:
I hope for the most part it is real with maybe some close calls like how clsoe he gets to the gaurd rail, if they put the rail in afterwords, that could be o.k.
tooocool49723:
No it wouldn't be OK to CG in a rail afterwords, it's not that difficult a maneuver. Go watch some of the D1GP and tell me that they cant get someone to do the drifting scenes. I'm hoping that the CG is only for little things like blending greenscreen into background or just the "normal" CG things. If they do any part of the drifting (that could possibly happen, no drifting in mid-air through a flaming hoop, missing the small poodle dog in the center of the road and passing your opponent at the same time) then i'm gonna be angry.

Anyway, about tokyopop... well... I'm just glad i've got ebay and my region free DVD player ($24 at best buy, lol, if you see a "cyberhome" dvd player that's really small and <$40, get it, it's region free and cheap).
(as a sidenote, the only reason for this post was to subscribe to this thread. There are easier ways, I know, i'm looking at the button right now, but this way is more fun)

Yes the movie is played by HK actors, but it is mostly filmed on location in Japan from what I've understood. The story line is based on the comic but since you can't push 25 episodes iinto 1.5 hours of movie.. well you get it.... Â One of the things I've heard but I am not sure if it is true, is that natsuki becomes ryosuko's girlfriend in this version...
Owh and all the driving is real, not CG.

--- Quote ---there is confirmation that there will be CG in the movie but as to how it's going to be used, no one really knows yet. the movie's already wrapped up. only thing they're doing now, is the CG and post production. it'll release in the summer in which i would guess will, come out on DVD september or early october 2005

agreed... most likely we'll have to wait till sept 05 for the dvd, then (if tp hasn't bought the rights) live evil could sub it. sort of like the naruto movie, but with less wait, since it's a chinese movie.
