:: Steam Boy

i admit it, i love steam punk. i love the idea of giant victorian robots powered by impossibly complex systems fitted in fine brass and working with inconceivably complicated clockwork details in lieu of computers.

That's why i'm very happy to have found out about Steamboy even if i don't understand a word of it and kinda sorta understand the plot (i believe it to be the story of a young boy who befriends Einstien during his heavy drinking days, and fights Sir Edmund Locutus who plans on using the evil power of steam to dryclean London), but, it's from the guy who did Akira, distributed by the guys who do Godzilla, and doesn't feature Adam Sandler, so it's all good as far as i'm concerned.
