Anime that is based from a western movie


There are a lot of western movies that are based from anime, such as
[Dragonball Evolution](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragonball_Evolution),
[Tekken](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tekken_%282010_film%29), [Blood the Last
Vampire](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood%3a_The_Last_Vampire_%282009_film%29)
(based on [Blood+](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood+)), and [Street
Fighter](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Street_Fighter_%28film%29). [The
Matrix](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Matrix) movie is also strongly
influenced by [Ghost in the
Shell](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghost_in_the_Shell_%28film%29) and the
action scenes were drew upon their admiration for [Ninja
Scroll](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ninja_Scroll) and
[Akira](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akira_%28film%29).

So my question is, was there an anime produced based on a western movie or
series (not on western literature or novel, so movies that are based on novel
are excluded) ?




Off the top of my head, there's [Highlander: The Search for
Vengeance](http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=5552). It
was produced by Madhouse and written by David Abramowitz, who worked on the
Highlander TV series. Obviously, it's based on the Highlander movie and TV
series in the west.
