User blog comment:Finchelfanno1/A possible Bleach movie??/@comment-1532456-20110620121352

That's gonna be in tricky. From the looks of it, its been in negotiation for over a year. One of the problems with doing a live action version of something already made in a comic or animated form is the existing fanbase, who need to be pleased without making the movie strictly for them. Also to consider is for something like this what the rating might be, Bleach is kids-teen oriented as a comic, anime that amount of fighting, killing, and wounding would get any movie a high rating. Special effects for stuff like Zanpaktou relseases and Kido won't be cheap, nor makeup/costume for some of Bleach's more...eccentric characters (MAYURI! AIZEN!) <-all their fault. To sum it up, it could turn out a disaster, or a great success, depending on how the movie is handled. It'll be costly to make, so if a company or director looks it over and doesn't see much potential for success, they'll drop it like a hot potato.
