Live Action into Anime franchise
We all know there's been buzz about Hollywood adapting anime into live action movies. I ask you about the reverse: are there live action movies that you feel could be successfully adapted into anime? Any that by all means shouldn't?
For my part, I think Firefly would have made a better anime than a live action series. I realize I'm setting myself up, but I think if done right visually and scriptwise. Note: I am talking about the television series, not the movie. Any nit pickers please shaddap.
Speaking of shutting up, I'll open up the floor for people to shout out things.

Firefly already was an anime, it was called Outlaw Star.
*Awaits angry mob of nerds listing off all the differences in a feeble attempt to disprove it's a total ripoff.
God damn this is a long action caption.
Note to self: buy bread.*

Okay I missed that one. I will however make the geek point that Firefly was an ACTUAL space western while Outlaw Star was a space pirate-chinese martial art/mysticism-sci fi gun action show. The western element was more seasoning than an actual part of the set up.

whatever dude, Outlaw Star was the biggest sci-fi western I've ever seen. theres a showdown with guns in every episode and its got so many elements that mirror western movies that its laughable to call it anything other than that.

I've seen DVDs for an animated version of Yojimbo. Not sure how I feel about that. Then again, there are already so many versions of it, why not anime?

They did the HighLander and the Matrix.
I always wanted to see any thing violent, very stylized you know, Like Robocop or The Terminator. No Sissy Salior suit wearing wimpy girls Androids, I mean very badass robots from the Future that Kill anything in the way

Well, a lot of movies are made into cartoons. Ghostbusters, Clerks (it was awful), Robocop...
Almost everything in the 80's ended up with an animated series.
Why does it specifically have to be anime style animation?

I simply put that out there because anime is typically seen as a more serious or comical style of animation depending on the situation. I also wanted to stay away from the campy saturday morning school of animation. If I have offended, I apologize. And I'm an anime fan, what other school of animation would I suggest? Don't say CGI.

I have to say that anime has it's fair share of campy crap from what I've seen...and that's just the stuff that was apparently good enough to be translated and brought over.

Ah, but anime is the in-style for people tried of traditional American animation. Does NOT mean their right.
Ok, for live-action to anime....I dunno, how about the recent Grindhouse films? Maybe Fifth Element? How about Clockwork Orange?
