The second movie SUCKED and I pretend it doesn't exist. I think they need to go with a retro soundtrack, but that's just me. The first soundtrack was fantastic, as Darren said and it's sitting on my shelf right now. As long as it lives somewhat up to the first Heavy Metal I’ll be happy.

One of the finest memories I have of the first one is John Candy commenting on his "dork". And the fact that all the breasts seemed to grow exponentially with each scene.

There were even shots that <em>repeated themselves</em>. I missed FAKK, (Heavy Metal 2000) w/ Micheal Ironside and Eastman's wife, B-Movie video vixen Julie Strain...(is Strain gonna cameo here in the new HM...?) and Butter summed it up best. But I would think the animation would be more improved upon by now. So the dated look of the first Metal is, in my POV, irrelevant. What *is* though, is the same problem as before. While I think a call should be made to Rob Zemeckis to direct a segment (any part of Beowulf would have been welcomed in a HM,methinks) I also think that ...well...even Japanese Anime has a tough time crossing over to big screen wide releases in the US (and Canada) from time to time...because sadly, when we think animated, we either think of superheroes or fuzzy penguins. Not that anything's wrong with that, but you know what I mean. G/PG rated fare. Family/nostalgia stuff. But it seems "mature" cartoons only get a DTV release, regardless of quality.
