SAM RAIMI X HIROHIKO ARAKI ARAKI: DO YOU SENSE ANY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN JAPANESE MANGA AND AMERICAN COMICS? SAM: AMERICAN COMICS TEND TO HAVE TOO MUCH DETAIL, GIVING THEM A VERY CHAOTIC LOOK. I FIND JAPANESE MANGA TO BE A BIT MORE CLEAR-CUT IN WHAT IT'S TRYING TO EXPRESS; IT'S VERY SIMPLE AND ELEGANT BY NATURE. STORY-WISE, COMICS CATER TO A RATHER LIMITED AUDIENCE. I THINK IT'S WONDERFUL THAT MANGA CONSIDERS A MUCH BROADER DEMOGRAPHIC AND INVOLVES MANY PEOPLE. ARAKI: CGI'S BECOMING MORE OF A THING IN MOVIES, THOUGH. IT'S GOING TO BE VERY DIFFICULT TO ADAPT MANGA UNLESS THE MEDIUM STARTS USING MORE WIDE-ANGLE SHOTS. SAM: YOUR WORKS ARE VERY DYNAMIC, ARAKI. I THINK THEY HAVE AN EXTRAORDINARY AMOUNT OF ORIGINALITY. THE FACT MOVIES INFLUENCE THEM, THAT'S A GOOD THING. THOUGH THESE DAYS, IM BECOMING MORE INTERESTED IN THE PEOPLE AND THE STORIES THEMSELVES. IM ALSO BEGINNING TO UNDERSTAND HOW THE TECHNICAL SIDE OF THINGS CAN BE USED AS TOOLS OF EXPRESSION. ARAKI: IS THAT SO? AS SOMEONE WHO WRITES STORIES MYSELF, I'M QUITE A FAN OF "TRAGIC LOVE", WHICH WAS A BIG ASPECT OF WHAT I LIKED ABOUT "SPIDER-MAN." IT WOULD HAVE BEEN GREAT IF, AT THE END OF "SPIDER-MAN 2," YOU DID SOMETHING LIKE "THE GRADUATE (1967)," WHERE MARY JANE IS A BRIDE WHO GETS SNATCHED AWAY CLAUGHS). SAM: THAT'S A PRETTY GOOD IDEA; YOU MIGHT SEE IT IN "SPIDER-MAN 3" (LAUGHS). OJOJO WIKI SHUEISHA PLAYBOY (JULY 27, 2003) JOJOWIKI.COM
