Assault Girls (Trailer)
Screw Legion! The Japanese have their own versions of angels vs demons and it may out legion, Legion. Directed by Mamoru Oshii who gave us Ghost in a Shell and Sky Crawlers, we may have our first international feud in this heaven vs hell subgenre of scifi/horror.
Check out the teaser below.
Compared to Legion (Red Band trailer below), which do you think will be more megapocalyptic? Hey, you know for a fact, Tyrese will shoot a gun in Legion.
Takashi Miike heads to NY Comic Con this year to premiere Yatterman, his new film based on a Japanese anime of the same name.
So what's the hype all about?
Why would Miike come all the way to America to show us this insanity of this live action cartooney craziness before the manga and anime loving otaku's of his homeland?
Because from the trailer below, it's something us geeky American nerds, comic lovers and manga and anime obsessed Ameri-taku's are going to love as well.
For the uninformed, the plot is below.
A mysterious gem called the "Skull Stone" said to be able to reveal the location of the largest vein of gold in the world. This legend has entranced many people who wanted to get their hands on fame, power and wealth, including the Dorombo Gang. However, their hunt for the Skull Stone is not as easy as they imagined, mainly due to the faulty information they receive from their leader; and most of all, by a justical duo of pursuers called the "Yatterman".
