Astro Boy is a classic and a forerunner to the amazing anime we have today.
Who knew about this?! I sure as hell didn’t. They must have been keeping it pretty secretive since the only trailer I could find is on a French website. I can’t read French, but what I could figure out from the site was that is suppose to be released in October of 2009 and it is voiced by American actors. Nicolas Cage, Kristen Bell, Nathan Lane, Eugene Levy, and Freddie Highmore are just some of the names associated with the film. Adapted by Summit Entertainment and Imagi, it actually looks like it could be a good movie. I hope so anyways because Osamu Tezuka would have it no other way!
Check out the trailer here!!

I think CG was the only way to do it. I hope it turns out Pixar good!!!

A French website? Really? I’m pretty sure they don’t even have computers in France.
Hopefully this won’t end up another Speed Racer.

wasnt Imagi the ones that did the animated turtles movie last year, if so this could be a good movie.
