20th Century Boys: Japan's Marvel movies



The trailer for 20th Century Boys has been leaked. This movie is equivalent to Spiderman (first one) here in the U.S. Based off a popular manga (Japanese comic books), 20th Century Boys follows a group of friends, who as children, passed their time by imagining to be superheros and saving Earth. As they grew older, they realized that their powers are real, and everything they had imagined as kids is coming true.

Production for this movie looks like it's on a scale of War of the Worlds with a "WTF Effect" essence to it.

(Fast forward the video to about 2/3 into it.)
