They just didn't understand the assignment.Įdit. What they did was a hack job at best for something that will always be better than they could ever make.īy them I mean everyone but the actors. They thought what they were making was going to be great. We all knew that this was not going to bed good. Sure, it was "interesting" to see anyone take on something so loved. Little hints of her and the past would have been better to play out in later seasons. To me she had to much of the roles in the first season. Vicious was awful, missed the mark and base of the character he is as a whole. I have no issue with her looking like a person and not a super sexy or like a Instagram fake model. Spike, was okay even knowing an age differenceįaye I'm okay with her, just made her more than she needed to be. If they would have been even close maybe we would hated it less and been "okay" yet they didn't take into account any choices they made and what that did to how picky we are. I know most of us would never been happy, i get it as much as the next. Paying attention to anything that made it good and cared less about how it could be close or nice.

They picked one of the best anime series and just hopped it did well instead of doing things right. They could have done so much to fix things and imo ignorance killed this before they started filming. Radically altering the dynamic that two of them have is concerning for how the overall show will come off. It may seem like a minor point but the heart of the show is how the three main characters interact with each other and how those interactions inform and shape each character's past, present, and future. Spike being older than Jet fundamentally alters their dynamic because Jet scolding a visibly older than him Spike is going to be perceived radically differently than it was in the anime. Their ages reinforce and inform that characterization. Spike is rash and fly by the seat of your pants and Jet is more a methodical anchor in the story. I think the problem is that it alters Spike and Jet's dynamic. Faye did as good job as she could with the writing but again, not embodying the Fayeness that Faye has.Įdit: also one thing about the age of Spike I thought someone in the past made a good point: He just doesn’t embody the Spikeness that that character needs. But if the show fails with cho, I can throw up my hands and say “look we put the most famous Asian male, you can’t put this on me.”īut he just wasn’t the right man for the job. If I’m an executive there’s no way I’m putting in a no name because if the show fails that’s on me. I understand why they chose Cho, as a executive it’s the safe choice even though he’s about the last person who represents Spike’s aloofness he’s basically a very well known Asian male lead. Yeah by the end a few things became very clear: 'Cowboy Bebop' Netflix Live Action Soundtrack To use the spoiler tag type the following (/spoiler) The good thing is that the show is only a month away, so we’ll get our answers soon.Welcome to reddit's foremost hub for all things Cowboy Bebop, the 1998 series created by Shin'ichirō Watanabe. So, if Netflix is keeping Ed in its arsenal for season 2, it makes sense why the character is kept out from the promotional material as of now.Īnyway, these are all speculations, and we can’t be sure about anything until we watch Cowboy Bebop on Netflix. Also, if that’s the case, it could mean that the creators plan to release a Season 2 of the live-action series, with Ed playing a leading role in the second season. And considering that Netflix’s adaptation will feature ten episodes, there’s a chance that Ed will make an appearance in the final episode. In Cowboy Bebop, Ed is a non-binary child prodigy for hacking however, the character was first introduced in the ninth episode of the anime.
