    Screw Snakes on a Plane!

    http://www.afrosamurai.com/

    Afro Samurai is most notable for the involvement of American actor Samuel L. Jackson as the lead voice-over in the upcoming animated series of the same name.
    Yesssssssssss!

    Ill just post the same thing I have for this anime everywhere else.

    Nice concept.
    One of the better drawn animes ive seen in awhile.
    Poor choice of a VA, I think his voice will completly ruin this series, it sounds horrible in the trailer. Ill wait till it gets imported to Japan and watch that version with a new VA.

    Sorry, but no 'omg JP VAs are so good!' here, I just think this is a poor NA choice of a VA, he sounds ridiculous.

    It's Samurai Champloo with black people.

    Good to know Blaxploitation is alive and well in Japan. I was getting worried with the wane in popularity of personalities like Bob Sapp and Bobby Ologun.

    I think it looks awesome.

    Animation looks great, art is superb, story might be lacking but I dunno and the VAs..well we'll just have to see if it works or not.

    Looks awesome. Gay choice in a VA though, for sure.

    lol I was only able to get 2 people who didnt think it was stupid to go, everyone I know seriously thinks the movie is retarded and won't go.

    I applaud the area where you live for having cool people with open minds.

    I think Snakes on a Plane is simply to see how much Samuel L. Jackson brings to a movie all by himself. I don't know how many people are going for the concept as much as it is Samuel L. Jackson being in this concept.

    And AfroSamurai seems to be attempting to get black people to watch anime. Which honestly I can see happening cause Anime is pretty awesome.
