Yeah, I know I’ve already posted a bunch about this film but what can I say, I’m looking forward to it. Six minutes of footage from Steamboy – the new film from the director of Akira, due out in North America on October – is now streaming online here. Nummy.

dudes, I just came back from Japan, and while I was there I saw the actual movie, which was really cool. It kinda reminded me of Metropolis for its kind of Busy Metropolis-type look in a lot of the movie, but one thing really concerned me… is Rei(the main character) Russian, or English?!
The link didn’t work for me.
Is there an english version of this clip? Google just sent me to all the Japanese clips.
Either way, even though I couldnt tell what they were saying. It looks incredible. The animation looks like the style of Akira too, not just directed. I hope it has a good story! I am excited on visuals alone.
There is a review of this over on The Japan Times website.
