Astro Boy!

>

Astroboy finally opens today! Are you excited? Are you excited? Are you excited? You aren’t excited are you? Dammit. Where is the buzz for this movie? I’m still super pumped for it and I will definitely be wearing my astroboy t-shirt, even if I am the only one in the theatre!!!

The movie stars Freddie Highmore, my best-friend Kristen Bell, Nicolas Cage, Samuel L. Jackson, and Charlize Thero.

fun fact: I used to get a ringing in my ear when I was a kid, I was convinced I was astroboy’s secret brother. Just putting that out there for you to think about.

Live you Basterds, LIVE!

Is anyone else becoming obsessed with Inglorious Basterds? Okay, well I’m not there yet, but the levels of excitement are bordering dangerously close to obsession. Which is probably not that healthy, just ask the cast of the new Astroboy movie, who have deemed my daily emails “Level 3 security.”

To feed my excitement for the movie and since I’m in the states, I’m going to have to check out How to be a Basterd: Inside the New Film by Quentin Tarantino, which is actually not about the last five years of my life, which have been nothing but inglorious. It’s actually an exclusive 30-minute behind-the-scenes look at the making of Quentin Tarantino’s newest movie and it’s going to be airing on THIS TV here in the USA on Thursday 8/20 at 10p-10:30p and 8/22 at 12a-12:30a.
No word yet on a Canadian air date, but MTV had Quentin on last week, so I guess you could always watch that on replay for thirty minutes.
Come to papa you basterds.
Sad/fun/useless fact: I’ve never seen any Tarintino movie besides Kill Bill I and II. Bad blogger, bad.
Thanks to Adam for the tip.

More Boy!

>New Astroboy Trailer!!!!!!

I’m concerned that my love of Astroboy (I own a $50 astroboy t-shirt), is blinding me of the potential stupidness of this movie.  But I don’t care.  I will be there opening night, by myself if I have to.
Just a thought: I think the story line of this movie is the same as Robocop 2.  That can’t be good.

oh boy astro boy

>It’s still a month and a bit away from my birthday (may 10th), even though I am currently accepting gifts.

Like this one for example from the movie gods:

This is the newly released promo poster for Astro Boy.
Dreamy.
UPDATE: And now they just released a new teaser trailer!  Awesome.  Sadly, Kristen Bell’s voice isn’t heard, but her name on the screen will do for now.

More Astro Boy!

>Screw Twilight, the movie I’m most excited involves a robotic little boy!

Wait, that sounds bad.
Check out the JUST released Astro Boy teaser trailer!!!!!

Question: Is it normal how excited I am for this movie?!?!
Only 336 sleeps!

Astro Boy's new poster!

>You already know I love me some AstroBoy, but I just found the poster for the movie adaptation that comes out next October and I couldn’t be more excited! Is it too early to start lining up?

The good: It stars Kristen Bell!
The bad: It also stars Nicholas Cage!
