AstroBoy Online Forums

I've seen these topics show up on other boards, so I think we should this put up here as well. It's basically for people who are bored and still want to contribute something visual.

A few basic rules:

1. Do not post any offensive or adult oriented pics
2. Keep the pics in sceen fitting sizes (therefore no horizontal scroll bars, as they're a pain for Jeffbert )
3. Each member is allowed to post only one pic per day (otherwise we would have this topic flooded with a sh*tload of images way too soon).

Since we're in the General section, the pics won't have to be related to Astroboy or any of Tezuka's works, but of course they're welcomed anyway here.


I think I'm starting off:

Those who have seen 300 will get it.

I don't think I'll be good at finding them, but I'll look forward to those that will be posted.

I haven't seen 300, so probably this one isn't as funny as it could be (it's still funny in itself, I just don't get the "sparta" thing).

You may want to have a look at the original movie sequence the pic's referring to:
This is SPARTA!! (scene showing up at 2:48) :d evil:

I'll have nightmares!!!! (Where's the scared smiley?)

Reminds me of a scene in the movie 1492. They made us watch it in high school and at one point, the vilain has a choice between facing his ennemies or jumping off a cliff. Imagine a movie theatre full of high school students... guess what they started screaming?

I remember this one, I saw it while I was in school too. I also remember not having been horrified by the visual content, more by the idea of the thing: the guy had ruined everything, then had cowardly refused to face the consequences by committing suicide.

Anyway... I don't know if animations are allowed, but I have a try anyway

It is taken from Sith Apprentice, a parody from Star Wars. Unfortunately, I have no URL to give, but I will eventually find one soon.

You mean 1492 - Conquest Of Paradise? Shame on me, I never saw it actually. I can only recall that it was very popular, especially the song by Vangelis that got aired by almost every radio station around the time of the movie's release.
Anyway it's noted on my next DVD list.


I like the GIF, fafner! Anything visual is allowed here.

I found the URL for Sith Apprentice: http://www.zteamproductions.com/sithapprentice/index.html

- Darth Sidious: Lord Vader! Red!
- Darth Vador: tap tap tap

Nice one fafner!

Yes, that's the movie I was thinking of. I do own the main track... It's not a bad movie but I don't remember that much of it. I basically remember what I said above, plus my classmates being disgusted at the part where Columbus walked on some disgusting insects. Oh yes, and the part where the "indians" and the Europeans met for the first time... Okay, I still remember it a little I guess!
