Live Action Cowboy Bebop

I genuinely have no idea how to feel about this.

On the one hand, they used Tank! for the opening and that's great, because you were never going to have a better opening than Tank! so there was no point in even trying. But on the other hand, it also kind of makes you wonder what the point of all this is because it's really got no shot of being better than the original show, and immediately being reminded of that right off the bat sets a strange mood.

Beyond that, assuming the non-stylized clips in the intro are how the show is going to look...it has a real neon lit, cartoony vibe with gonzo camera angles that almost gives me Batman and Robin vibes, and is in very stark contrast to the anime which was absolutely a sci-fi noir in terms of style. Cowboy Bebop could be goofy and over the top, sure, especially during comedic moments, but it could be dark and depressing as hell, too.
You summed up my feelings pretty well
I will definitely give it a chance, but I am not exactly optimistic

Maybe that's the key. Seems like everytime I get excited about am adaption I end up disappointed

I was genuinely excited for The Gunslinger especially when I found out they got Idris Elba and Matthew McConaughey

I don't normally get angry at a bad adaption....it isn't that serious but I was truly upset at that steaming pile of sheet
