What Haak is trying to say is this Hollywood has never been good with adaptations . The people who are handling the project have little or no understanding of the subject matter . The actor chosen hardly reference the original material . Also as anime and manga are long running, a movie is maximum 3 hours . So either they end up bastardizing the plot or packing too much into 2/3 hours
I am basing this matter on fact, Vanilla Sky (Abre los Ojos) Wicker Park (L'Appartement) Grudge (Ju On) The Uninvited (Janghwa, Hongryeon) One Missed Call (Chakushin Ari) and Dark Water (Honogurai mizu no Soko Kara) These movies adaptation were pure mockery compared to there counterparts
