Just found out about this a couple of days ago...The creative team behind Shin Godzilla/Godzilla Resurgence (Anno Hideaki/Shinji Higuchi/Shiro Sagisu) is back with a live-action remake of Ultraman. Coming Summer 2021. New release date is now May 13, 2022.

Judging from the Japanese trailer above, it seems they are taking the formula used in Shin Godzilla and applying it to the world of Ultraman.

What do you guys think?

Not exactly thrilled with purely CGI Ultra and kaiju, but still eager to see what Hideaki Anno does with it. This has to be a dream project for him afterall.

Click to expand...

I do agree though that the CGI shown in the trailer needs to be worked on further...Hopefully they still got time until release this summer.

What I'm really excited about, though, is not this movie, but rather what possible live action projects could come after this one from Hideaki Anno.
If this one is to become successful like Shin Godzilla did (at least in Japan), then I think the only logical next step for Anno would be to finally make that live action Evangelion movie people have been talking about for so long (Me being an Eva fan with fingers crossed).

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
