Report: Max Makowski to Helm Voltron LIve-Action Film

…set to direct the upcoming live-action adaptation of Voltron series, which aired in North America from…directed episodes of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy…

Ray’s take: so, the guy who directed some episodes for Queer Eye is going to direct Live-Action Voltron…Well…I wonder what Carson would say about Golion/Voltron members’ uniforms and hairdos…Should I really say more on this? Oh and he’s going to direct a movie adaptation of the Kung-fu show with the REALLY TRULY OH-MY-GOD-IT’S-SO-FAKE-CHINESE-GUY-SHOW…AHEM AHEM, I mean, “Kung-Fu the TV series”. Wow, sounds fun. Let’s line up for the tickets to the premiere!!!!!!!!!!!!

Or not. I think about that concept and I puke. Well, that’s just me. But directing Voltron? That may be interesting after all. A cameo of the Fab 5 picking the lives of the pilots apart for absolute lack of fashion sense or simply living sense would be gold.

Update: Check out this interesting Wiki entry about Max Makowski’s Indie work. Thanks, Gerald!

About the Author

I'm a hardcore Anime Fan and I'm proud of it. I know so many things and I've acquired so much knowledge you wouldn't believe. But my love is anime. I've been drifting in this world for so long that I don't even know what an anchor means. I've seen so many shows that I've lost count. The only thing I'm sure of myself is that I care for the lowly and disenfranchised. I hate the rich and powerful and I love what I do, or what I can do. I like anime and I don't mind watching different types of shows. I have experience in different types of Japanese animation. I would be called an "expert" in a bizzaro world. One day, I'd like to start a revolution. I love the US, pizza, beer, sashimi, Chinese food, and steak. But I love freshly baked bread more than a well-aged steak. In reality, if I were born Japanese I'd be a real, hardcore Otaku. I love to love and I can hate strongly. I'm passionate in nature and I don't mind shedding tears.

Haha, did you check out the wiki entry for Makowski’s The Pigeon Egg Strategy? Pure gold.

Lol! Now I wonder whether that should be called brilliant for being able to premiere at Sundance and without paying back a single penny, or pure farce with its concept, either way, I wish I could see it. It actually sounds like my kind of indie movie!

Thanks for the link!
