Holy S**T. This really blew me away, it is a whole lot better than the first one. More realistic it felt more like a live-action movie than anime. John Woo and Aramaki are the best team for a movie.

 

[Ennui]

Got a link to a trailer or anything, bigpapa of 400lbs?

Also, word to Jacksonville, I live in Durham and some of the people I go to school with in Chapel Hill are from Jacksonville.

 

[Sulkdodds]

I wonder who founded the town of Jacksonville.

 

[Adrik_Senturu]

Johnson.

 

[Asuka]

I have the 1st and cant wait to get this on blu-ray.

 

[Krynn72]

I watched it. I liked the first one a lot, but this one? Holy **** I loved it. Its my favorite all-cg movie yet.

LOL

Must keep an eye out for this. I liked the first one although the style of CG didn't sit quite right with me. The trailers I've dug up for this one look much much better.

I've got to see this. On top of John Woo being one of my favorite directors (I love the HKBO genre), the original Appleseed (1988, not 2004) defined my entire philosophy on giant robot suits: sacrifice armor for speed. Armor doesn't matter if you can't be hit.

 

[Krynn72]

But other robots can easily calculate your next probable position easily, no matter what your speed. So all they have to do is shoot where you'll be, and not where you are. A common misunderstanding in sci-fi is that robots can miss when shooting at you. The fact is... Robots never miss.

Saw the commercial trailer all over Adult Swim, looked fantastic. You can tell it is very high quality. I wasn't a fan of the original. Bored me to tears, 'course I was like 16 at the time I saw it some 9years ago. :|

^Evasive maneuvers can solve that robots never miss problem. Robots never miss if their target is poredictable.

 

[Krynn72]

Robots have computer brains. They can predict any move.

 

[_Z_Ryuken]

The only solution then is an illogical anti-move unevasion procedure.

You are confuze srs com puter.

Out-witting the unwittable.

 

[Darkside55]

If a robot can predict any move, the way to beat it is to create too many possibilities for it to predict, and move at random.

 

[_Z_Ryuken]

Now you are just making sense. Good luck fooling a computer with that kind of logic.

 

[Krynn72]

Fine. Enjoy your robot that randomly evades right into a wall and wrecks itself.

 

[Bad^Hat]

Robots never miss.

That doesn't sound like a very long movie.

 

[Krynn72]

Indeed. Good thing there arnt any actual robots in this movie. Just manned mechs and people with cyborg body parts.
