20th Century Boys Live-action movie teaser

Yeah it's been out for a while but I just found out about it and **** yeah it's awesome. Naoki Urasawa's epic masterpiece comes to life.

Keeps the Book of Prophecy in tact perfectly and everything, and they even got the song by T-Rex! I hope it stays true to the manga, not because I'm an elitist fag, but because I want to see every inch of it portrayed in live-action.

Coming out this August this year, which is too soon...I'm really excited to see this movie as 20th Century Boys is one of the coolest manga in the world. Matter of fact if you haven't read it, read scanlations (that's all there's out of it right now, although official releases will be coming out) of it RIGHT NOW. I mean it, it's worth it.

From what I can tell, though, from looking at the actors and teaser...it seems to be portraying it accurately which I have my doubts about the alternate Monster (another manga done by Naoki Urasawa) movie that's being made by some American director (apparently he's gonna take a lot of stuff out from what I hear).

Hope they keep Kenji's song (a.k.a. Bob Lennon, yes an intentional tribute to Bob Dylan and John Lennon) in it too, and even have it's own movie cover. Yeah it's a mediocre song, but it has a lot of meaning to it relating to the story if you know what they're saying; I don't feel like getting a translation right now.

Discuss!
