I have seen the film and I am HAPPY

I don't care that it's been "Americanized". I don't care that it's in 3D (though I saw it in 2D). I don't care that they've changed minor details. I saw this film today, and I am HAPPY.

I love the fact that a version of Tezuka has a "cameo" in this film. I think the "God of Manga" would have approved and liked this film. :)






TITLE SONG from Astroboy Fan site


Soaring high in the sky,
He may be small but only in size.
AstroBoy, AstroBoy,
He is brave and gentle and wise!

Stronger Than all the rest,
this mighty robot will pass the test,
Oh villans fear him, so we cheer him,
The amazing AstroBoy!

When you need someone strong,
Our robot friend will never be long.
AstroBoy, AstroBoy,
He will try to right any wrong!

When there's danger near by,
No matter who, what, where, when or why.
He'll defend us, he'll defend us,
The amazing AstroBoy!

I have watched Astroboy since the early 60s, and I am content.
