Alex-7 01-04-2007, 09:58 PM Did it look like this? http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a289/Alex-7/Sig.jpg wotnartd 01-04-2007, 10:02 PM Black Samurai, with Samuel L. Jackson. Looks funny.

DarkAngelKamui 01-05-2007, 11:28 PM Afro Samurai, it's an adaptation of a comic that's been kinda popular in Japan: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afro_Samurai Supposedly only 5 eps long, but I bet it'll hit Big O status. Show's just too good to leave like that. Though with each episode totaling out @ $1M, I can see why they only made a handful. lol Herschel 01-06-2007, 05:53 AM Afro Samurai, it's an adaptation of a comic that's been kinda popular in Japan: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afro_Samurai Supposedly only 5 eps long, but I bet it'll hit Big O status.

Hope it comes out on DVD tho, cuz we don't get anything good on TV like that overseas:tear: .

Well as far as the story line...It's a revenge plot....sure its all been done before, but the art is good and I like the concept of stepping outside the box a little with kung-fu type stuff (i.e.: black samurai, kung-fu with guns). I didn't see any of the other trailers except for the one I mentioned in my previous post so maybe I missed something, but what exactly do you find wrong with it, just out of curiosity. Zero 01-06-2007, 12:36 PM 1: It's anime. 2: It's black-based. 3: It's anime. 4: It has samuel jackson not playing jules. 5: It's anime. vrooom305 01-06-2007, 02:38 PM "I'm Afro Samurai bitch!!!!" yep it's gonna be stupid. just as stupid as Asians trying to act black. DarkAngelKamui 01-06-2007, 06:31 PM It's blacksploitation with an asian chanpur. Like a futuristic take on '70s cult films. There's more to appreciate about the show then action and black people. It's a pretty interesting art project, if you take time to notice the elements. I'd say the same folk who couldn't "get" Boondocks wouldn't really go for this show either. cool3865 01-06-2007, 07:08 PM Afro Samurai, it's an adaptation of a comic that's been kinda popular in Japan: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afro_Samurai Supposedly only 5 eps long, but I bet it'll hit Big O status.

ComradeGiant 01-06-2007, 08:15 PM Its a great show for pure goofy fun. If you take it seriously, you're a retard. Cosby 01-07-2007, 08:39 PM wow jackson must have some gambling debts. Manntis 01-07-2007, 08:42 PM I miss Ren & Stimpy...

GITS > Afro Samurai It's been around longer and has much more of a backing then AS does. If anything, it's surprising that a 5 series show has managed to get the same budgeting as such a successful series. :bigthumb: DarkAngelKamui 01-08-2007, 10:32 AM I miss Ren & Stimpy... Pre-Spike TV or post? They made a return not too long ago, but the show wasn't all that great AFAIK. DarkAngelKamui 01-08-2007, 10:40 AM wow jackson must have some gambling debts. lol, debts or not, he's getting paid. He's doing quite a few voices on the show actually, since the main character isn't much of a talker. If you hate this show though, wait till you see the live-action adaptation. :P ComradeGiant 01-09-2007, 01:41 PM wow jackson must have some gambling debts. I saw an interview with him on the Late Late Show, he's not making very much on this or The Boondocks. He says voice acting is the most fun he's had in a while, aside from Snakes on A Plane. Sam Jackson is just a goofy bastard, I think. |
