sigh I wonder how badly this will be buggered? :(
i hope it has the same balance of special effects and story, like XMen 2 or Spiderman 2.
at least that way, the commercial masses will be able to enjoy something that is quite mind-blowing.

Actually, it better have a similar musical score to the animated series also. Otherwise heads will roll.

MAXX was AWSOME...fuck, i never got my head around what the hell it was about, other than he wanted to get back to the outback or something, and there were too different types of little critters, white ones and black ones, and posably a hot chick or two
hey, does anyone remember the cartoon around the same time (MTV again i think) about i guy, with a huge head, that had a little guy living in it, and there were other wierd peeps, like one guy with a bit knife through his head

The MAXX persona and Outback were all internalised. I can't recall how Mr Gone fit into it...

According to wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Maxx
Julia was raped, tied up and left for dead by Mr Gone. She created the outback to escape from her anguish and pain. Then she accidently created Maxx and made him part of her outback when she hit a homeless dude called Dave with her car. Sarah, the other girl in the show is the daugther of Julia's friend. Sarah's dad is Mr Gone.
Pretty twisted cartoon. Very original, too.
Here's the full details about Gone. It looks like the cartoon only touched on limited bits of the full comic book plot:

Word to that.
Toilet Trained you're talking about The Head. That was awesome, Roy (the alien) cracked me up. Liquid Television, The Head and MAXX were my staple for quite some time...

Urrrgghhh...
WHY Charlize Theron?
WHYYYYYYY....
so incredibly wrong for the character.
Aeon Flux is UGLY-HOT. Which is the best kind of hot.
Charlize Theron is just pretty...
I mean yeah they made her ugly in monster but that chick was really significantly, tangibly ugly. and besides from the screenshots ive seen, it's just Charlize with black hair.

I don't know.. I trust the director. Charlize looks dark (in emotions, I mean). it could actually work.
I really like the trailer images.
the only person I'm not sure about is Johnny lee Miller as Oren....
