Re: Initial D Movie
I've heard about the movie being made... first time seeing any trailers for it though...
Looks like they're taking the time to do the series justice... Hope to see it soon myself.

Re: Initial D Movie
Only thing that gets me thus far is the description about the Movie...
For those of you who haven't/can't read it...
"It's a story about the fastest street racer of Mt. Akina. Takumi, a delivery boy, Ryousuke, an engineer of speed: and Kyouichi, a professional racer. The three of them become duelists of drifts.
For five years, 18-year-old Takumi has been delievering tofu in his fathers's obsolescent Toyota AE86 every morning. Not only has he become a good racer, but he as also unwittingly perfected the art of drifting.
He was never an aficionado of hill racing until he was asked by his father to drive his AE86 in a Davind and Goliath race against Night Kids' EVO IV. A glorious but unexpected victory awakens the competitive genes in his blood, while his overnight fame inevitably leads to hellraising races one after another, each one more perillous and exciting than the previous one."
Ok... wtf is that all about? It's not really even close to the original. I can understand small differences in the story... but in the manga and animated series... the story was basically the same.
This is soo far off. It'll be hard to watch it in my opinion if they go with this route. Cause I'll keep thinking to myself, "this is all wrong... it never happened like this."

Re: Initial D Movie
They probably fashioned up that story to keep the audience interested. The beginning of the series was pretty boring, so they needed something that was a bit more riveting.
