We got our hand on a bundle of Astro Boy preview clips:

Plot:
“Set in futuristic Metro City, Astro Boy is about a young robot with incredible powers created by a brilliant scientist in the image of the son he has lost. Unable to fulfill the grieving man’s expectations, our hero embarks on a journey in search of acceptance, experiencing betrayal and a netherworld of robot gladiators, before he returns to save Metro City and reconcile with the father who had rejected him.”

Astro Boy may look like a small boy, but he’s the strongest robot ever created!

Release date: October 23, 2009.
:)

Take a look to this new international poster of Astro Boy:

Astro Boy fly for freedom! Go Astro Boy, Go!
:)

A new preview clip of Astro Boy is available:

Astro Boy – The Robot Games
Astro Boy does not want to fight…Plot synopsis:
“When an android replica of a boy is rejected by his aggrieved creator, he goes off to find his own identity in an adventure that would make him his time’s greatest hero.”

I was quite surprised by the little robot splitting and transforming into two dangerous robots. The movie Astro Boy is definitely likely to deliver much more than first expected!
:)

Here’s an old style poster of Astro Boy, the upcoming CGI animated movie from Imagi Studios:

Astro Boy looks like a puma on that poster.

The upcoming Astro Boy movie produced by Imagi Studios won’t be a bloody hell, but still, it will be action-packed flick if this extended clip of Astro Boy is any indicator:

An action-packed 3 minute scene from Astro Boy
Not only we will have a lot of action in Astro Boy, but also some good humor. This preview clip of Astro Boy is rekindling my interest!
:)

Some twisted mind (kudos to him!) is pitting the poor Astro Boy against nasty gladiator robots:

I hope this scene closes with metal scraps of destroyed robots scattered all around! But it’s Astro Boy, so I guess it won’t happen…
:-/

Those two new movie posters of Astro Boy, the feature film produced by Imagi, look quite good:

This Astro Boy movie is rather faithful to the original manga. But I actually yearn for a darker version of Astro Boy… That little robot could do so much more if he wasn’t so starry eyed!
:/

Here’s a new trailer of Astro Boy, it gives a much better look to the CGI animated movie from Imagi Studios:

ASTRO BOY
Plot:
“An origin story set in futuristic Metro City, Astro Boy (Freddie Highmore) is about a young robot with incredible powers created by a brilliant scientist in the image of the son he has lost. Unable to fullfill the grieving man’s expectations, our hero embarks on a journey in search of acceptance, experiencing betrayal and a netherworld of robot gladiators, before he returns to save Metro City and reconcile with the father (Nicolas Cage) who had rejected him.”

I have the impression Imagi Studios have been somewhat inspired by the the work of Japanese filmmaker Hayao Myazaki. I really like that: it gives a perspective that suits to Astro Boy.
:)

Astro Boy is a weapon with chubby face: don’t bug him!
:)

Some new footage of Astro Boy aired on a Japanese network (it’s called Atom Boy over there):

Imagi is rising studio from the Far East as a potential competitor to Dreamworks and Pixar: they do a great job, with some quite impressive CGI.

We’ve got a Japanese trailer of Astro Boy. Well actually it is a teaser trailer of Atom Boy,the robot boy hero is originally called Tetsuwan Atomu in Japan, literally Mighty Atom, so actually we should call him Atom Boy!

Check below this new teaser trailer of Atom Boy, aka Astor Boy:

The Plot:
“Set in futuristic Metro City, Astro Boy is about a young robot with incredible powers created by a brilliant scientist in the image of the son he has lost.

Lucky Japanese: not only they’ve got the latest robots, but they also the best teasers when movies deal about robots! This Japanese teaser trailer of Astro Boy is awesome, it is much appealing than the material we’ve seen so far: it makes my day!
;-)

Think about a robot boy with an Ipod in place of a heart: that’s Astro Boy!

Meet the boy built for adventure!

I know Astro Boy is not a dark hero, but he is a bit too starry eyed for me… Maybe one should send him t get trained with the Cylon Calvin from Battlestar Galactica.
:)

Something I have always wondered about Astro Boy: does Astro Boy add up to global warming when he flies? I mean, it seems that his boot propulsors lot of gas…

Astro Boy Greenpeace is gonna crucify you: beware!
;-p

I know boy isn’t supposed to look really badass like the transformer, but Imagi Animation Studios could have slightly differ from the original manga and make him look more agressive…
