Astro Boy Trailer
Starting out as a manga, Astro Boy first hit Japanese television screens in the 1960’s. It was a major influence, helping shape anime as we know it. I never was fan of the original, only seeing a few excerpts from the manga and/or clips of the television series. As a result I carry little, or no, baggage with me about this CGI update. Does it over Americanize the concept? I don’t know and I don’t care; not as long as I find it a fun movie experience come October.
