Fullmetal Alchemist Live Action official poster released

Well ok, I guess the good guys don't look that bad. Winry is kinda cute

But dear god the Homunculi

>>161869745
>all this yellow-washing

Hughes, Alphonse, and amazingly Gluttony are the only good looking ones.

Is Alphonse CG?

Why not literally just make a metal suit? Surely that's cheaper and better than a fucking CG animation.

>>161869745
Hughes looks pretty good to be honest

>>161869983
>Surely that's cheaper and better than a fucking CG animation
>Surely that's cheaper
Surely you jest. Besides, the author herself said that it would have to be CG in one of her end-of-the-volume extras.

>>161869745
Is that Hughes on the left? Why does he not have a beard? What in the actual fuck is with all of this?

>>161870155
Hughes in the manga had a stubble and you can sort of see that on the guy's chin

Also is it safe to say we can't expect Ling and his ninjas in this

>>161870083
A steel suit can't possibly be more expensive than the post processing and camera tricks necessary to put a CG Al into the film

http://www.darkknightarmoury.com/c-61-functional-full-suits-of-armour.aspx

Here's the first thing I found after looking it up. ~5k for a suit. Let's say that to make one custom costs four times as much. That's still a measily 20k. And that's assuming you make a literal plate armor suit, and not just go with some plastic shit that looks like metal.

>>161870272
A massive steel suit can't move as fluidly as CG. That's the problem. Alphonse is very agile.

>>161870272
You're not factoring in the actor's fee for moving around in that bulky clanging suit for hours and hours on-set without being able to scratch an itch

>>161869745
Gluttony looks like Uncle Fester.

>>161870317
>real life thing can't look as real as CG
That's definitely an opinion

>>161870348
>actors fee
Yeah, because wearing a green motion capture suit is poverty work. Also I'm sure the fact that their acting doesn't factor into the price. It's all how comfortable they'll be as they work, which is why all uncomfortable jobs pay top bucks

Where the fuck is King Bradley?
I see two literal who's right next to Shou Tucker and Ross.
Where the fuck is Scar?

>>161869745
>tfw my ex gf look like lust

>>161870317
I'm sure there are large martial artists in nipland who would jump at the chance to take a movie role, even if they're masked the whole time.

>>161870514
>green motion capture suit
anon this isn't Iron Man. Al's armor looks a lot more involved than that

>>161869745
Both the series were an incoherent mess, even though the general idea behind the series, and the characters were pretty great. Why would you make something needing so many special effects live action anyway?

>>161870580
I don't quite get what you mean by 'involved'

>>161869745
>german characters
>played by gooks
okay

>>161870597
>Both the series were an incoherent mess
I'm sorry it's not as straight forward as Naruto

It looks good.

>>161869745
Are they gonna make Lust scissorhands and have her fingers size static?

>>161871259
No, it's already obvious from the CG in the trailer.

>>161870642
too bad, a gook wrote it and it was published by gooks, ergo its theirs. They'll cast Somalians if they wanted and you'll like it, get fucked entitled faggot

>>161872085
No, I wouldn't watch it id they were niggers,
Still gonna watch the piss-skin version but would have prefered white actors for realism.

Alphonse looks great

>>161869745
Mustang needs a fucking haircut.
Everything else looks fine.

>>161870317
whos going to move inside the giant suit? superman?

So what are they gonna do when they get to the part that reveals Ed and Al are half Xeresian?

Sorry but those mudshit eyes are not anywhere near the color of gold.

>>161869745
I'd fuck Hawkeye and Ross.

>>161869745
So that's Dr Marcoh and I'm really hoping that's not King Bradley

>>161869745
Is that geriatric above Roy supposed to be Wrath?

>>161869745
Well at least they tried their hardest to look visually similar with the characters unlike Jewmerica that would just straight up turn them into niggers or have a very terrible casting and pretend that everything's alright as long as he can "act" the mannerisms and personality of the character.

>>161869745
Is that meant to be Nina Tucker in the bottom right?

>>161869745
y'know, after all the whitewashing US live action adaptations of anime/vidya tend to do, it honestly wouldn't hurt them to yellowwash this one, and make the series take place in a westernised asian-inspired country, instead of the european one in the manga. because those gooks failed at passing off as europeans. also,

>Over gelled/dyed hair
shit like this never makes me excited for most live action adaptations of anime/vidya

>>161869745
Dat Hawkeye and her tight turtleneck

Where's Scar?

>>161869745
Where are the Chinamen? Or is Ling not going to be in this?

>>161869745
Doesn't look all that bad desu, is this your first jap live action movie?

>>161876239
Chinamen come in a bit later, I don't know how far this movie is going.

>>161870525
Pretty sure middle row is Marco, Ross, Falman and Tucker

who is right middle supposed to be?

>>161869745
If this actually has a budget worth half a shit it could be an amusing watch, it probably won't though.

>>161869745
This looks cheap.

>>161869745
Me neither.

>>161869818
This, they were ment to be germans.

For all of you saying why they didn't cast white people. Have you seen the state of Hollywood these days? They would miscast horribly and not even try to emulate the original look. Europe will probably replace half of the white characters with blacks/Arabs for the sake of diversity.

Honestly this isn't the worst they could have looked. They may look like cosplayers but hell I'd take this over another Death Note or DBE.

>>161880339
>replace half of the white characters with blacks/Arabs for the sake of diversity
Ishval was already a thing in FMA

>>161869745
spoilers guy on the left dies

>>161880245
they havent germans in japan for do it

>>161876731
Seems about right except for Falman, he has grey/white hair but he isn't that old and he's not that high ranked.

>>161869745
Looks like garbage and probably is garbage just like the Shingeki no Kyojin movie. Nips are fucking horrible at live action. Also I can't take these characters seriously. A bunch of mongloids playing what are supposed to be Caucasians with the exception of Ishval and Xing.

Ed id too tall.

The actress playing Lust looks like she does JAV porn, who is she?

>>161870642
they would be black if played by germans anyway

Needs more white people

Not enough Scarlett Johansson

>>161880738
>Nips are fucking horrible at live action
To date their only successes are RuroKen, Cromartie and 3gatsu no Lion

>>161869745
Cast is not that bad honestly.
Ed and Hawkeye are weird looking, probably because they're blond.

>>161882355
I could see her as Riza.

>>161869745
Welp.

Atleast Riza looks good.

Asian adaptations of manga:
>character designs look exactly like their manga counterparts but the 1:1 transference ratio looks bizarre and awkward, eg. Phoenix Wright film

Western adaptations of manga:
>designs are completely different but story is adapted so that it looks natural in a real life setting

>>161876177
they hired the guy who played L in netflix death note. he's on his way to japan now

>>161869745
So I'm the only one who wants to sex the Envy?

>>161884689
Yes. now go kill yourself

>>161880245
There is no Germany in the world off FMA.

>>161883192
Same here. If they ever did a Burger version of this she'd be perfect for it.

>>161886019
Amestris is not-Germany, Xing is not-China, Drachma is not-Rusia and Ishval is not-Middle East.

>>161886174
>any setting that involves European architecture and military uniforms in anime is automatically Germany

Right, kartoffel

>>161886174
Well yeah it's not

They even have a moustached genocider Führer.

>>161886314
>>161886427
Amestris has many similarities to Nazi Germany. They are both ruled by a dictator and have similar enemies: the Nazi nation had Russia while Amestris had Drachma. And they allied with Aerugo similar to how Nazi Germany allied themselves with Fascist Italy by the Berlin-Rome Pact.
However, these similarities were not intended by the author in terms of making Amestris an "allegory" of Nazi Germany of any sorts.
Some of the equipment the Amestrians use are based off of real life German examples, such as the Amestris Tank being based off of a mix of the Panzer III and Panzer IV respectively.
In keeping with Amestris' similarities with Germany, the German Empire (1871-1918) had a population of 56 million in 1900, close to the time period of Fullmetal Alchemist itself. However, it isn't known if this was intentional or unintentional.
Another point that can be made is that Amestris' history in some ways mirrors that of Brandenburg, the state from which the Kingdom of Prussia was founded, and later the German Empire. If one views alchemy as a 'religion' of sorts, the date at which Amestris begins using alchemy is highly similar to when Brandenburg converted to Protestantism.

>>161886794
Yeah there are obvious similarities nobody is denying that, but to complain about the lack of German people playing not German characters is silly.

Couldn't care less about the rest of the cast, it's all about Cute Hughes for me.

Ed and Envy are the only actually ugly characters in here. there rest are convincing, at least from a live action perspective.

But holy fuck, I want Hughes to daddy me up.
