One of Top Cow’s most celebrated comic titles, Witchblade, is coming to
the big screen. I know one
GEN editor who is squeeling right now!
LOS ANGELES, May 12, 2008 – Platinum Studios, Inc. (OTCBB: PDOS), an
entertainment company that controls an international library of more
than 5,600 comic book characters which it adapts, produces and licenses
for all forms of media, in conjunction with Top Cow Productions, Inc.,
an entertainment and publishing company specializing in building
intellectual properties through comic-book and graphic-novel
publication, and Arclight Films, one of the leading international film
sales companies, today announced a deal to co-produce a feature film
based on the action fantasy thriller Witchblade. The best-selling comic
book franchise created by Top Cow has sold over 100 million units
worldwide since its #1 debut in 1995.

As for the Freshmen, I think that The Freshmen has the capacity to be a little irreverent. Seth can somehow get investors to back it I'm certain. Feature film? Perhaps it could very well get the TV series treatment as well (speaking of which...)
Back to Witchblade, I would like to check out the TNT Network produced TV series from 2001, written by Silvestri himself, although that seems to be a standalone adaptation. Which leads me to my next point... should the film be a purely adapted work, or should it be an extension of Witchblade continuity?

GodSin, I'll begrudgingly admit that I have otaku-esque inclinations sometimes, however, I never really had any inclination to be interested in that license of Witchblade. Even if it was studio GONZO handling it. After reading some reviews though, it does sound substantially better than haphazardly licensed trash, and Top Cow considers it canon to boot. Still, I doubt I'll go out of my way to see it.
