I'm not sure if that is Samuel Jackson at the end. I think he's meant to be voicing the main character. The last character, from what I've read, is supposed to be annoying.
Great art, but I expect it will suck giant donkey balls. My reasons? One, sam jackson. Two, black samurai makes no sense. Three, Music by the RZA... wtf. I dont like it when people start rapping in my fight scenes. Lastly, the script. We can all tell it sucks by the only speaking lines they had in the entire trailer.
aesir, there actually was a black (congolese) samurai in the nobunaga clan in 16th century japan. He was brought to Oda Nobunaga by christian missionaries, and upon observation Nobunaga ordered them to wash his skin in front of him. When he realized the man's skin was black, he made him apart of his clan. When Nobunaga's house was attacked and destroyed the African was the only member to survive.
While aesir was griping about virtually everything, he somehow neglected to mention that this cartoon is also responsible for tripling the national debt and is suspected of causing eyeball cancer in anyone who looks directly at it for more than 15 seconds. Plus, it killed your dog.
I dunno, Marine, I was thinking it already looks and sounds a lot like Samurai Champloo. Untraditional characters and a hip-hop vibe, it's pretty much the same approach as far as I can tell from the trailer.
The art is nice, and I will own up to being a fan of The RZA. He's totally into this stuff and I think his style works well.
