I can't remember if I already asked this but wouldn't it be awesome if the movie was released in Imax theaters? I'd pay to 15-20 bucks to see it in Imax

Imagi do some decent work, so I think it'll be a good movie in it's own right, but I'm not expecting it to be Tezuka's Astro Boy. American producers haven't shown they understand Astro on any level beyond a kid with super powers.

David Bowers interview, for those who have not seen it yet.

That picture at the bottom is pretty darned incredible. If that's the final look of the film, then they'd got a winner on their hands in my book.
Sayonara.

Thanks Ninjatron.
Wow, that's so much better than Marc Handler's attitude. There's hope yet.
David Bowers wrote:"I want Astro Boy to be a really special movie, a mix of action-adventure with lots of comedy and a really emotional story at its core. It's an iconic property and deserves respect, so I don't want to give it the glib, pop-referential treatment that so many animated movies have today. Instead I want it to stand as a classic superhero origin story, something befitting the icon of Astro Boy, kind of along the lines of Richard Donner's Superman. I want it to serve as an introduction to Astro Boy for western audiences whilst remaining faithful to the lore of Asian audiences. Astro Boy is a treasured icon in Japan and so I'm working closely with the Tezuka estate to ensure I get everything right."

I want a giant monster for Astro to defeat. Monsters and Kaiju...
