This is a static copy of In the Rose Garden, which existed as the center of the western Utena fandom for years. Enjoy. :)

As much as I love Gael I don't think it would work

That's because he's too busy making out with the guy's on instruments to actually sing. Fanservice is much more important then being on pitch when you're Gackt.

i know, the minute anyone says ANYTHING remotly sounding like Gackt, my friend goes into a frenzy of "O MAI GAWD! GACKT! WHEN!" (where, who, which! sorry...i had to do that...*beats self up*)
but even before, when he was in Malice Mizer....he couldnt sing live (examples in live illuminati and juat about everything else you can see of him on Youtube....except Je Tu Veux!! i looooooove that song! *squee*
but again about a live cast, i think if my boyfriend shaved off all of his "stubblies"...he woud make an EXCELENT Touga....one of the many reasons i made him dress as Movie Touga one year....*sigh* that costume looked so damn good!
and i only sugested movie Touga cause ive never seen my BF wear white and i was a-scared...

Some people are live and some people are not. Gackt, I believe, needs a fair amount of props and direction to look fantastic, though he does it incredibly well, and is really, really pretty.
I also think that for casting suggestions, Hyacinth wins.
And @Shattered for an earlier comment, 9/10 times, high school anyone in a movie is played by someone ten years older than the character's age.
Keira Knightly could never be a Utena because she is kind of dry, and lacks the wholesome girl look Utena's got. I also think she's too overtly sexual. Juri I would go for though, that's closer. Keanu Reeves is too much of a flimsy wuss to pull off a good, solid and neurotic Utena character....
and I really have no extensive knowledge of actors, from anywhere.

YAAAY!!!! I WIN!!!
*does dance*
Hey, so with the high school thing, it's just like in Ferris Beuller! Matthew Broderick was, like, 30 or something when he did that movie, but I still don't believe it.
I hate Gackt, but he's so pretty. I like to look at him every now & then out of pure masochistic urge.

Thank you Yasha
Weheeeeeeeeee~ i'm bringing 3 Mikages
William Fichtner. I totally adore this guy, and all his characters.
Mikage Rhys Meyers
Souji Cobain.
And this is Miki, i think nobody can get a better Miki than this one. Jeremy Sumpter, AKA Peter Pan.
Eva Green as Juri! The red car helps much.

I'm seeing Eva more as Mrs. Ohtori.

Too young...

Sumpter is perfect for Miki tho! And I like Eva as Juri...
Offline
Hahah, not only is it post necro, it's double posting. Oh well.
If they ever make a live action, they MUST have Monica Bellucci as Mama Ohtori. That is all.
Fix'd. Sometime ONTD sucks.

Then, I understand why Akio kisses her feet
An stunning woman, isn't she?
I also like Peter Pan as Miki, and Eva Green looks great in Juri curly hair.

Have I mentioned yet that Prince would be perfect as Akio? They could even work in a musical number and it wouldn't be any trouble at all.

We are talking about movie Akio right? Because I for one fail to see just what it is that is so great about the Prince that was formerly known as that squeggly line thingy, whatever he has that appeals to soo many people flies way over my head.
Offline
Most things about Prince defy description, and my admiration of him is no exception... If anyone else tried to pull off the Prince attitude and affiliated bullshit, I'd say that they deserve to be beaten to death with concrete reinforcing rods, but somehow, for him, it works. Sort of like how most people feel about Akio...

Oh thank God you mentioned her! She's the perfect Mrs. Ohtori!
Offline
I don't think she was mentioned either, but for Juri...
How's about some Kate Winslet?
Esp that last one, she just looks so...fierce.
Offline
I see her more like Chigusa
Offline
^ ^ ^ that was my second choice for her! I couldn't decide.
Offline
I'd have to vote for Juri for Kate Winslet, since I don't know Chigusa that well, and haven't quite come around to liking her at all, yet.
Those are some very nice shots of her, either way...
Offline
Wow, those pictures really do look like Juri! And Winslet has the acting range to pull it off, I think.
Also she's hot.

Some years ago I didn't like her, but I the pictures morosemocha's post... God, she is gorgeous!
And SO, SO HOT!
She could do a Juri worth to be seen.

Necro'd!
I think I just found the perfect Akio, gaiz.
Sendhil Ramamurthy from Heroes.
Offline
He's definitely hot ( ), but I'm not sure white hair would suit him.
Anyway, I don't watch Heroes, is his acting good enough?
