Cartoonist Harry Partridge has done up a quick video that*encapsulates*what Akira, a Japanese Animation movie, would look like if it were made in the USA.

Described as:
A kinetic, dystopian vision where young motorcycle gangs roam Neo-Tokyo. Post-nuclear war and all hell breaks loose when one is exposed to a government experiment, thus gaining menacing powers.
The live-action version*will be developed into two parts with the first installment tentatively scheduled for a summer February 2010 release.*Warner Brothers*and*Appian Way*will adapt the two movies from the manga, with each movie covering three volumes of the original comic. Leonardo DiCaprio is slated as one of the films producers, but there is no*official*word yet on who the cast will be, although speculation puts DiCaprio as Kaneda and*Joseph Gordon Levitt*as Tetsuo.
