I think the metropolis movie was very good and was a good enhancement of the original manga. I watch the dvd every single night but i think it is rediculous that it took them 2 hours to paint one cel and there are 15,000 cels. That doesn't include the time it took to draw them. That is like 30,000 hours!!!!!

Glad to see how open-minded you are, InSeRtNaMeHeRe. I'm sure that you've enlightened us all with your in-depth review of a completely gorgeous resurrection of an amazing classic by the man who invented both manga and anime as we know it.

Wow, I think I've pegged a GATSU on the ANN sarcasm scale.

You forgot to jab at his miserable treatment of the English language. I would have done a "(sic)" filled quote box, but I'm starting to realize the people I'm mocking won't get that.

I wish there were IQ tests that you had to take before you were allowed to watch a movie.

Craeyst: Actually, ANN trashed Metropolis, because it wasn't like the manga, which was so cartoonish that even Tezuka was embarassed by it. I'll just say I felt the themes in Metropolis the anime were a lot stronger than in the manga. But without the manga, you wouldn't have had Astroboy.

Sadly, both times that I tried to watch it, I fell asleep. It's not that I think it's poorly done, but I am certainly not qualified to judge it myself.
