I always had this idea if we were going to get a high budget Gundam movie, they'd be able to scan in the 1:1 Gundam statue in Japan as a CG model and make all the mobile suits look in that style.

But I don't get the idea Hollywood could never make a good live action anime movie. Is it just that the people involved don't understand the source material? Is there something inherent in the anime medium that does not transfer to live action well? Because I can't think of anything in the typical Gundam show that couldn't be done in live action with CG.
