[JAPAN MOVIE SPRING 2011] Paradise Kiss

[yuns]

As cute as I find Osamu Mukai, he is so not what I envisioned George to be. I think there are probably better Georges out there, especially someone with a bit more of a delicate and sophisticated look to them. Osamu Mukai is a bit too much of a cute boy from next door look. I guess we'll have to see how he manages to pull off the role because George is seriously epitome of cool in the manga.

The film will open in Japan in 2011. Eiga.com notes that Mukai is literally Kitagawa's sempai; Mukai is four years older than Kitagawa (who turned 24 on Sunday), and they both have attended Meiji University in Tokyo. Eiga.com also states that over 5 million copies of the manga have been published, and the story has been translated into 10 languages for America, Italy, Korea, and elsewhere.

exactly what i thought. For me, mukai doesn't seem like he can pull off the enigmatic persona of George. I had envisioned more someone like a japanese version of lee hyuk soo or yang seungho.

There goes my fantasy of George .. rofl. Just kidding. But I can't wait for the movie to come out. I LOVE Paradise Kiss!

can't wait for the movie to come out no more

The cast is alright but maybe because I was looking forward to a more NANA cast kind of vibe. I don't really feel the cast and they don't seem to fit the roles. Plus, the fashion in the manga/anime has that lolita twist to it.

[Guest Aein]

I do wish that the actor playing George had stronger features, but oh well. Still excited!

[Guest .:daRkwinGs:.]

saw the trailer awhile back...

im soo excited!

[Guest pockii]

I`m a bit disappoint.

[jisol]

keiko kikigawa looks the part in the magazine editorials when her hair is darker and her makeup is more dramatic...

but i know the movie isn't going to be that close to the manga version t_t

which makes this a tad disappointing since i just read it....

[suzzah]

Wow, this was unexpected! Im going to go reread the manga now!!

I am a huge ParaKiss fan, but I am seriosly dissapointed with the casting choice for the movie. I do like Osamu and Keiko, but they are nothing like George and Yukari. Ovarall, i think it is a very bad idea to make live-action from Ai Aizawa's mangas. Her characters are was too unique. Nana was a huge dissapontment as well.

I think this looks very cute. And the leads are gorg.

Hm.. I'm actually quite excited about this! I like the main cast, and I really loved the manga. 

I will definitely be watching this! 

[emilydark]

Huge favorite of Paradise Kiss, I'm really looking forward to this. Please do a good adaptation of the manga.

[Guest Special Ed]

I honestly envisioned George to have features similar to Gackt. Sharp, gorgeous, and intimidating.

[Guest lokkita]

I really enjoyed the anime, I hope the movie turns out good! I hope they have an AWESOME soundtrack for it...

[Guest Montblonc]

I'm so excited to see this! When is it coming out again?
