Astro Boy: False Advertising

Postby Alittleacorn » 15 years ago

If you look at trailers and previews for the Astro Boy movie, they all lack the same one thing.

What's really going on!

They talk about how cool Astro is and that he has to save the day, but nothing about a grieving Father creating a robot to replace his dead son, and not even a whisper of abandonment. Or maybe they do mention it, but we just didn't understand it. :hyo:

Take a look at this TV Spot, The Perfect Robot
http://www.moviejungle.com/videoDetail.aspx?MovieID=84c194ac-dca6-46cc-be38-893f6ca759c1

Now with my great translating powers, I will tell you what's truely being said...>:3

Original = Italic
Translation = Bold

Voice: He was built to be the perfect robot
He was built to be replace an annoying brat

Tenma: He has the most advanced systems ever created
MY TOBIO! ALL MINE MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Voice: But all he really wanted
But soon he got thrown away

Astro: Wooooo
NOBODY LOVES MEEEEEEE-*crashes into building* :cry:

Was to find, where he fit in
After being abandoned! DISOWNED!

Astro: Fetch!
LEAVE ME ALONE! :cry:

Trashcan: Woof?
Hahaha you missed me! Nah! nah!

Astro: Opps
Stupid dog...

Voice: Now...
Loser :3

Stone: Declare war on them
Even though he's not a country but whatever!

Voice: When the world needs a hero
When the world needs an emotional wreck

Astro: I have to take care of this
Cause then Dad will wuv me again! :w00t:

Cora: Astro no!
Astro go! You're a terrible kisser anyway! >_>

Voice: He'll discover, he was made for the challenge
He'll discover, having guns in your cheeks makes utterly no sense! :eek:

Astro: I got machine guns in my butt!?
Nooooooo! Not my beautiful tush! :cry:

Voice: Astro Boy
Tutu Boy
Voice: rated pg, in theaters 23rd
Don't bother, this trailer killed the crowds :d oh:

If they worked harder Imagi could've had a nice trailer, already all their fans went here.

Edward, Vampire, Sparkle, Hot. The 4 words that run through a Twilight fan every 10 seconds.

The movie business is MAD! :d oh:

:lol: Hilarious! And yeah, the commercial has nothing to do with the story.
Astro is great, but he was built to replace Tobio, not be the worlds most awesome robot (Although, he is awesome... :d oh: )
They made the movie sound so cheesy, that's why I didn't want to watch it at first.
Actually, I never did want to watch it, I just ended up watching it cause there was nothing else to watch. :eek:
No offense Astro, the movie was just a bit cheesy. I wonder what Osamu Tezuka would say????
:astro: < :mad: Hurmp!....

And what Cora said: Astro go! You're a terrible kisser anyway! >_>
