Shingeki no Kyojin

Who would you cast in an American live action adaptation?

Who fucking cares about this bullshit

>live action adaptation
terrible
>American
even worse

I wouldn't.

Endgame right there, brothers.

These responses were totally predictable, yet I held out hope for a fun thread.

Never bothered with this crap, aren't they all supposed to be Jews? You'll have to find Jewish actors then.

MAH WAIFU. God bless whoever made that pic.

...

The fuck? They have German names for the most part.

If they ever do, which believe it will, it should be very loosely based on the manga ala Edge of Tomorrow.

...

...

Perhaps you don't realize this but Jews didn't show up in Germany with German names, they were at one point ordered to take on fixed family names, which were German obviously. If you're German you'll often recognize these because some of them are irreversibly associated with Jews.

Don't go mixing my waifu Kim with that AoT trash.

Who would play her daddy?

...

Cast kids. Make it similar to Ender's Game.

Sorry about that OP. SnK threads usually attract the shittiest of the shitty shitposters so you were shit out of luck.

But I'll try to contribute to this as much as I can.

In my honest opinion, Chris Evans should 100% be casted for Erwin. Literally no one else could portray him better. Chris was made to play two people: Captain America and Erwin.

For Levi, I believe that Erza Miller would be best fit for him. I know that Levi would probably be fully americanized in an American adaption, but Erza is perfect for Levi who is supposed to be apparently Asian. Well, not too perfect. I don't know if Erza could play Levi's character that good, but he definitely looks the part.

Melissa Benoist should be casted as Historia/Krista. She's definitely cute enough and spunky enough for it.

I'd say that Dakota Fanning could make a decent Annie. I'm not too picky since most female actors can't bulk up, but it's not like she'll be seen half naked or anything. In reality, I'm sure that the overrated Jennifer Lawrence will play as Annie, but I suppose that she wouldn't be the worst choice.

I seriously had a feeling that somebody was gonna do this shit.

I'm still fucking rustled over it even though I anticipated it.

everybody is gay

Seconded

Yeah I know that, and Yaeger, Ackerman, and Arlert aren't Jewish names.

You're not the brightest I suppose? Jewish names are written in Hebrew. A name that is associated, or often used by Ashkenazi Jews, is written in German. Just like Ackerman.

Yaeger sounds like a transcription into English and comes from a German surname, yes.

I'm not saying these are all Jews by the way, the original point was more related to me seeing the Madagascar threads a few months ago and thinking it was interesting and made the connection after reading the thread and looking at some of the names of the characters. I don't know anything about this show.

top fucking kek

I am Jewish, user and have one of those German names. I have never met another Jew with a name like Ackerman. It's as you said; there are Ashkenazi names which came to be ethnically Jewish despite having German roots. My point was that none of the characters in AoT have names that sound Jewish. They're just generic German-sounding names for the most part except Eren's who was obviously named "Yaegar" aka "Hunter" intentionally.

>live action

Your personal experience isn't that relevant when you can just Google Ackerman and find the Jews with the name yourself. No name other than Hebrew names sound Jewish, Ashkenazi names are still German.
Also, as a Jew you should know damn well that Levi is an actual Jewish name. Now add Levi, a clear as day Jewish name, and Ackerman, a common Ashkenazi name, and tell me with a straight face you can't understand why someone might start asking questions.

I was going to say "Did you see what happened to GitS?" but SnK is about as deep as a wad of spit, so there's nothing really to misinterpret or ruin. It would still be shit regardless.

I disagree.
SnK is mindless action for the most part. Something (((Hollywood))) does well.

...

I'd pay to see that.

lol small itallian man

>Your personal experience isn't that relevant
Yes, you obviously know more than me, the one who actually grew up in a Jewish community, going to synagogue with hundreds of Jews.
>No name other than Hebrew names sound Jewish
Shows how much you know. There are also the Sephardi.
>Google
Yes, I can use the internet too. An excellent retarded point that there are Jews named Ackerman. You're sure to find some Jews named Smith too, but that doesn't make it a common Jewish surname. Not as common as Cohen, Roth, Rosen, Epstein, or Goldberg.
>Levi
I chalk that up to coincidence. Most of the names seem random, merely chosen because they sound German. Eren is a Turkish name for fuck's sake. We don't even know if the world of AoT even has real-life religions or is entirely alternate.
