    It's going to be hard to improve on the original animation. Even today, Astro Boy is an enjoyable cartoon to watch. Sure, it's dated in places. But quality will last, even as technologies and storytelling styles evolve.

    Dude (XJWS79), you have no f*cking clue as to who or what Astro Boy is. He's a Manga character, not a DC character.
    You get a D- for not doing your homework.

    Yet another movie I must say just made the voice cast even better. This comic movie won't be much for the adult crowd, but then again Holly wood likes to mess things up, so I doubt it follows the DC comic.

    Warner Brothers is the studio for a DC comic movie, won't have never guessed.
