not sure that the "saving the environment" calculation really works out. Printing 50,000 (or however many) copies of something uses a lot of paper, yes, but so does however many man-hours of computer time it took to make this, which I'm assuming was quite a few from quite a few people.
Will you have to understand that this is a motion picture you can't really complain, why need bubbles when they are already Narrating it . Beside it in motion we wouldn't have much time to follow and read the bubles :/ and not only that it block the pretty picture.
..well, im sold! I understimated what this would have looked and sounded like. I guess i was expecting to be completely disapointed but I was not. It's less animated and more....ohhh I'd say "audio book" like, escept that there are pictures to the sound! Takes me back to my CB reading days......ahhhhhh :)
To be honest, the only voice that sounds right is Cyclops! Emma is ment to be from England, so make her sound it, Beast sound to high pitched and old! Kitty is, alright, but could be better, and Wolverine is just, off!
I have the suspicion that this is not the real motion comic that marvel is working on, I'm guessing this is a fan project maybe? The trailer that has been around for a while now has waaay better animation than this video here with y'know, real animation. Also, if this is real, why isn't there anything about it on the official site?
I think Cyclops's voice was actually the only decent one. The rest were crap however. They didn't do a very good job on the whole "motion" thing. Watchmen was really we animated and it's pretty damn old. Yea, I also liked the dialogue boxes in Watchmen too. But the one guy doing all the voices and female ones as well. Gay!

I haven't read an X-men comic since the days of 'Onslaught'. But i really enjoyed this. I think the voice actor did really well in voicing the comic book dialogue. I really like the artwork too.
I would much rather pick up a comic and read rather than watch. This does nothing to promote more reading, that is if Marvel places all the Astonishing X-MEN in this format. But those are my two cents....
