Love the fact that its a darker movie, I think a lot of these modern day retro re-makes are too soft and fuzzy. They are really made for modern day kids, not the 25-40yr old fans and lovers of the originals. I think the nostalgia is lost on modern youth. Its just another movie to them..
Astroboy plot was too puffy and light, i would have loved it to be far more dark and scary.. I remember being on the edge of my seat when i was a little tacker even crying watching some episodes (yes, i have cried at cartoons :P )
