This can go either way really. If they decide to follow the original Manga, it will win a Oscar award guarenteed. If they follow the movie (which they probably will, because it is that franchise that is making this movie possible), it will be the worst film I've ever had the pleasure of spitting at. I was always kinda pissed at the way the original anime was handled (Obtain the original Manga, Take the semi-good parts, drop all the excellent parts, mix in 3/4 gallon of stupid religious symbolism, throw in some meaningless explosions and action sequences that were never in the manga to begin with, stir vigourously and let sit for 10 years), so maybe they'll learn from their mistakes this time around, but probably not. I fully expect a word-for-word recreation of the anime.
In any case, I'll probably end up seeing it anyway just so I can hear someone scream :
