I just saw the Flash Gordon movie for the first time this past weekend. For something that has supposedly garnered a cult following it seemed pretty damned 'meh. Except for Brian Blessed anyway.
The artwork in the article is pretty great though, and animated seems like the way to go with this one.
Live-action Akira though... still seems like a huge waste of time, money and talent.
