I got the astro boy movie today!!!!!!!!

everybody alredy knows about the main film so I woul't bother describing it here but the extras are pritty cool, they has a behind the seans with the cast, a bunch of footage of them recording lines, they had one where they talked about how they made the movie including a how to draw astro part and some of the chalinges of makeing him 3D, there was a bunch of kids getting there hear done to look like astro, one girl git her hear done like cora, I found myself woundering if the junkyard jirates short was set before or after the gang found out astro was a robot, and the RRF short was just silley, it will make you chukle.

OMG: I can't beleave I am the first person to post on here about the dvd after getting it!!!!!!!!!!!!

Technically I've seen it, and yet haven't. I've got the dvd and haven't bothered to watch that part yet, but Its in the novel. Takes place after they met astro (Only about five minutes after meeting him.) The junk yard pirates kidnapped Widget and Astro beats them up and takes her back...has it changed since?

I looked everywhere for the DVD... But the stores around here only have it for Blu-Ray! I don't have a blu-ray player, nor theres no way in heck we can ever afford one. :/....No one thinks about the poor people any more lol. By the way... If by chance can a blu-ray disk play on a DVD play...at all? I don't have a 'card' to order one online either... I'm totally screwed. T^T

Astrogirl91, unfortunately, Blu-Ray discs cannot be played on DVD players at all as they use a much tinier data format (read with a blue laser instead of red) that only a Blu-Ray player can read. (Blu Ray players, can, however, still play DVD's).

It could be the Blu Ray shipments came in sooner than the DVD shipments - I can't imagine the DVD not being available where you are eventually as Blu Ray is just starting to pick up steam and DVD is still a big, big seller. Give it a few days and check back I guess? Best of luck!

:lol: :lol: :ninja:
The Blu Ray is beautiful! I feel the sound is far better than what we had at the theater. And the Picture seems to have more detail. This is just the best Astroboy production ever! :w00t:
The Extras are great! There is extra animation also as everyone knows by now! It'll all be free online before a fortnight no doubt. :lol:
But the Blu Ray is just beautiful! :wub: :tenma:
