There are people, and there are robots.

Some of both are evil. One guys tries to kill them. : )

Not much help if it doesn't have subtitles. Although I guess someone will sub it eventually.

that looks awesome. looks very Americanized though. Are all Japanese films so remniscient of American films?

No, actually - you'd be very suprised, a lot of typical American flicks have a lot of outsider/foreign influences - a lot of famous American movie directors have emulated Akira Kurosawa and his works, and he was inspired by older US westerns . . ..

The vibrant colors in this movie are very typical of newer Japanese flicks IMO; I think the US has/will be following suit - think of the Matrix/Kill Bill: a lot of those american movies have scenes that are carbon copies of their inspirations, which are anime/Hong Kong cinema - and in turn, like the Matrix, a lot of other movie makers, foreign or nation, it doesn't matter, will imitate them too.

More likely, Hollywood will remake it with Ben Affleck in the leading role, include every possible cheesy cliche, and give it a happy ending.

yeah, i think it was awesome [the colors]. so the matrix took asian influences? thats interesting [besides the obvious martial art sequences]. I dunno why, but I always thought international films were less speical effects, less violence, and explosion driven [i.e. slow and boring ;)), and more plot driven than American films. I'm not familiar with Japanese films, but I think for the most part European, Spanish, and Indian films are like that.

Wow looks really cool, live anime. Bets on the amount of boring dialog? I'm going with 80% of the movie.

Looks cool, $6 million budget? Interesting comment from the director: To tell you the truth, I am really surprised by the reactions we are getting from the international audiences. I'm even beginning to think that the trailer was misleading. You might be disappointed if you are expecting a feel good action movie.

Looks like this movie is based on Anime Casshan: Robot Hunter

Nope.

Americans don't like to read subs. Or rather, they have difficulty reading and watching at the same time.
