看來意馬最後仍是要賤價將Gatchaman 的開發權賣比Sony。 :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
雖然只是傳聞,但已令人十分期待 Sony 版的 Gatchaman。

IMAGI Studios proposed a Gatchaman movie but the studio went bye-bye. And this has just popped up today: Sony has registered a domain name for a Gatchaman movie.

Does this mean Sony has taken over the project?

Oh, that thing again.

BIG MOVIE STUDIO BUYS DOMAIN NAME RELATED TO ANIME PROPERTY - FILM ADAPTATION FORTHCOMING?!?!?

Short answer: maybe.

Long answer: this happens all the time. Big movie studios are always hot on the trail to track down viable properties to adapt to feature films, so you can virtually type in any sort of intellectual property, add "-themovie" at the end, and sandwich it between some www's and a .com, and boom. Most of the properties associated with those domain names will never see the light of day as films.

It's a form of insurance, more than anything. All this means for Gatchaman is that, currently, Sony has an option on the property. Gatchaman has been optioned by nearly every movie studio in Hollywood over the past two decades, on the off chance that they can find the right script and the right director (read: cheap) that'll fit within their release window. It almost happened with IMAGI Studios, but then a little film they made called Astro Boy was released. And, it tanked. Badly.

Now, the property is out in the aether. Sony is probably just eyeing it as a possibility on the off chance that some hotshot director with a screenwriter in tow manages to wow them with an impressive pitch, but that's unlikely to happen, at least in the near future. But, just in case that happens, they'll have the domain all to themselves. That way, if the film happens, they won't have to pay some domain scalper an ungodly sum of money to purchase it after the film is being developed.

But, any number of things could happen. Sony could just sit on the license until their rights lapse and let the domain expire. Sony could sell the rights to the property to another studio willing to put the time and the money into it. Hell, maybe some billionaire will buy the domain name and fill it with spam and pornography. Who knows.

All I can say is that, yes, Sony is "looking at" Gatchaman. In filmspeak, "looking at" something means "if a good pitch comes along, it's ours."
