I got machine guns..In My Butt?



This new trailer has some great character designs. That old robot he activates is obviously inspired by Laputa.

I notice it crops the video, at least in firefox it's cropped. The title is a link to the youtube video

    Never known anything about Astro Boy before except the name, but this looks like a "Must See" to me.

    Looks very interesting. Lots of cool looking robots. I'll have to show this to Dan, he really liked Astro Boy as a kid (and still has the coloring book somewhere!)

    I'm not sure about "must see" ... maybe if they limo me to the multiplex, buy me popcorn, Raisinettes, and trinkets, and allow me to decorate my office at home with the print of the film when we're done watching it. I used to watch Astro Boy when I was a kid and while I think they may have the spirit of the original in reasonable shape, the "guns in the butt" thing doesn't rub me the right way.

    Wow ... I just types a whole "anti-Astro-Boy movie" manifesto and found I was signed in under another gmail address ... I hope the "admin" will allow it because if I type that much again my fingers will fall off ...
