Ichi the Killer wouldn't translate. Period. Not saying it wouldn't translate well, it would not translate at all. Even the name wouldn't work.
A lot of Miike just wouldn't work. Audition wouldn't work because one of the biggest things was the contrast in the girl between the first 90-ish minutes and the last 30. The girl would NOT be that meek if the movie were American. The movie would pretty much fall apart. Hippie censorship groups aside, Visitor Q MIGHT could work, but it would be toned down anyways, and then the point of the movie is gone.
So no. Miike won't be remade, mostly because most of his stuff can't be remade.
