It seems like people are almost incapable of making a decent movie based off of an anime/manga/game or anything except a book. I think a lot of it is because marketing doesn't want to spend a lot of money on it, they have always been so bad it's considered a studio risk and therefore under budgeted, and the mediums allow you to do different things. I'd like it if a studio would put everything they can behind at least one project in terms of talent and marketing. Just to see how it goes. Kinda like the new resurrection of superhero movies.

I've always been preferential to Gantz. It doesn't get bogged down in the drama but still explores the natural human responses to an over-the-top situation.

Sheesh, this red garden is nothing but drama.

This started with the potential to outdo Gantz, but unless it stops focusing almost exclusively the Oxygen/Lifetime Network girl-drama and gets back to the purported plot soon I don't see that happening, which is a shame.

I'm trusting all of you who said that this show was worthwhile here

I noticed, but as you might have noticed my post references others in this thread. Wouldn't make a whole heck of a lot of sense over in the other thread.

My thoughts as well. I am a huge Gantz fan, and I was hoping Red Garden would be half the series Gantz was. It was no Gantz, but I did enjoy it.
