I strongly believe that FMA has a lot of potential in becoming an Oscar nominated film. The characters, world, and story are so three-dimensional. The anime itself has being very successful in the US and in Japan, also in other countries. To be honest, I think that out all of the Animes being adapted into live action films right now, Arakawa 's creation is the most original and realistic story I've ever came across. What are your thoughts on the creation of a real - life full metal Alchemist film?? How would you start the film? What would you leave out??? I would love to know your opinion because I am interested in writing a screenplay adaptation. I’m an aspiring screenwriter (screen writing student) and would love to know what you think about the idea??? :kakashi:

Granted yes, the series was phenominal, as is the Manga. However, 3 home runs in a row is pushing it. I have high doubts that the depth of character, story and emotion could be captured into a movie. Mainly because, since it is an anime, they'd have to do an entire movie as an exposition. The general public has no idea what FMA is. That is a large problem nowadays. If you want to do a movie like that you have to do one movie to introduce the concept to a new audience, and then you can based the sequel(s) on newer concepts. If they made an FMA movie I'd want it to be new material, not a rehash of the anime. It would just lose its shine to me.
