Steamboy is the
most expensive animated film in Japanense history with a budget
of some 2.4 billion yen (roughly $20 million). Steamboy is a retro
science fiction film that has a very strong sense of design. Fall
2003 Release Date was pushed back until early 2004 due to Katsuhiro
wanting the ending of the movie to be well done.
Ray is a young inventor living in Great Britain in the middle
of the 19th century. Shortly before the Great Exhibition, a marvelous
invention called the "Steam Ball", behind which a menacing
power is hidden, arrives at his door from his grandfather Lloyd
in the United States. Meanwhile the nefarious Ohara Foundation
has sent men to aquire the Steam Ball so that they can use its
power towards their own illicit ends.
