Get your tissue box and get ready to pretend you’ve got something in your eye because some genius Japanese movie exec decided it was a great idea to produce a live action version of Grave of the Fireflies. The tragic story about the two kid brothers surviving after an air raid in WWII will get sadder tenfold as real life starving orphans are much more shocking than their 2D counterparts.

It really tops the Grave of the Fireflies candy can as worse tragic marketing ever. The tearjerker is set to be released on summer 2008 with shooting starting next month.
