It's the movie of a magazine that's big in Japan.BuckRodgers wrote:I like Eng's style, a throwback to early scifi book covers IMHO, and I like the layout of the variant title. But why Japanese? In an age when animation (for an audience over the age of 15) is owned by Japanese studios, why use Japanese font for an American/Canadian film? I get annoyed when artists throw in Japanese script for no apparent reason.

The magazine, Heavy Metal, is not, to my knowledge, popular in Japan. After a quick search, all I can find is ヘヴィメタル (the Japanese title of the film Heavy Metal). Either way, I don't get it.

Maybe they did it because it looks cool?
I don't really get it either, but it fits. It'd probably be more appropriate in French, but the Japanese looks much better than I expected.BuckRodgers wrote:Bikejoh wrote:It's the movie of a magazine that's big in Japan.BuckRodgers wrote:I like Eng's style, a throwback to early scifi book covers IMHO, and I like the layout of the variant title.

I agree, the Japanese def looks better than the English title on the reg. I'm just hyper-sensitive to the use of Japanese script for its cool factor.

Only Mondo could do a series of character portraits, and do it without likeness rights.
