Take a look at his big screen message to New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, and Washington DC movie theaters

Synopsis:

The as-yet-untitled film will explore the root causes of the global economic meltdown and take a comical look at the corporate and political shenanigans that culminated in what Moore has described as "the biggest robbery in the history of this country" -- the massive transfer of U.S. taxpayer money to private financial institutions.

ASTRO BOY BEHIND THE SCENES

Known as the Japanese Mickey Mouse, the boy wonder robot known as ASTRO BOY hits movie theaters October 2009 featuring the voices of Nicolas Cage, Freddy Highmore, Kristen Bell, Donald Sutherland, Bill Nighy, and Eugene Levy.

Created in 1952 by Osamu Tezuka, the godfather of anime, ASTRO BOY, began as a manga (Japanese comic) and later became a television series in the 1960's and brought to the United States in the 1980's as an American television series. The television series started the visuals associated with anime.

Now Imagi Studios brings a big screen version of the boy robot this fall. Imagi Studios, based in the United States and Hong Kong, gave CineMovie a sneak peek at the story about a robot made in the likeness of a scientist's dead son. We're with the line producer Pilar Flynn and character designer Luis Grane of Imagi Studios who explain their efforts to stay close to the original material.

Joining Tarantino for the first time is Academy Award-nominated costume designer Anna Sheppard.

Academy Award-nominee Lawrence Bender is producing Inglourious Basterds. Erica Steinberg and Lloyd Phillips, and Bob and Harvey Weinstein are the film’s executive producers. The co-producers are Charlie Woebcken, Christoph Fisser and Henning Molfenter. Pilar Savone is the associate producer.

Inglourious Basterds begins in German-occupied France, where Shosanna Dreyfus (Mélanie Laurent) witnesses the execution of her family at the hand of Nazi Colonel Hans Landa (Christoph Waltz). Shosanna narrowly escapes and flees to Paris, where she forges a new identity as the owner and operator of a cinema.

Elsewhere in Europe, Lieutenant Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt) organizes a group of Jewish soldiers to engage in targeted acts of retribution. Known to their enemy as “The Basterds,” Raine’s squad joins German actress and undercover agent Bridget Von Hammersmark (Diane Kruger) on a mission to take down the leaders of The Third Reich. Fates converge under a cinema marquee, where Shosanna is poised to carry out a revenge plan of her own...

Inglourious Basterds will be released worldwide in 2009.
