J. J. Abrams looking to adapt “Your Name”

J. J. Abrams and Paramount team up to adapt “Your Name

OK, I have quite a few problems with this:
1. The movie has heavy Japanese cultural references in it, so what are they gonna do to Americanize this?
2. The movie isn’t even that old, are they just rebooting it because it made big bucks around the world?
3. After what happened with Ghost in the Shell and Death Note this year, do they really expect this to be successful?

I’d be willing to give the benefit of the doubt but I just really don’t think this will work…At least Shinkai is looking forward to it…

I could totally see them turning it into a generic teen romcom.

I thought the original movie was a good 7/10, but I can't really see a good, non-money-driven reason to remake it.
