Up until now, all we've seen from the CG Astro Boy adaptation was a simple teaser. Well, now we have a trailer that should actually give us a pretty good idea of what to expect. Check it out.
As you can see, there is some level of Americanization. The childish puns and visual gags often seen in Pixar movies are present, which may anger some long time fans. What the fans probably don't want to admit is that Astro Boy was a kid show to begin with that's with a comedy style reliant on the same gags used in the trailer. As an adaptation, it still looks amazing and very true to the original despite a few minor nuances. I am still looking forward to the movie very much and expect it to be classic. Yes, there will be whiners, but I'm predicting fan acceptance even from some of the purists. You can catch the movie in theaters this October.
