While I can see the similarities, one could easily draw parallels to countless shows and movies. If I had to, I&#8217;d channel my love of anime and say it&#8217;s a mash up of Bleach and YuYu Hakusho.<\/p>\n<p>While it isn&#8217;t completely original, it still looks interesting enough to me; and I&#8217;d like to think it&#8217;ll have its own personal spin on the genre. Plus, I have been a fan of Ryan Reynolds ever since Two Guys, A Girl, And A Pizza Place &#8211; so you can&#8217;t go wrong with that. Also, I am really glad they went with Jeff Bridges versus the original choice of Zach Galifianakis &#8211; but that&#8217;s just my irrational dislike of the guy.
