Thats a good question in the movie they say they lived peacefully in the sky for years and they never say that theres imminent war between like two political factions or something so why would you need this
@@papersparrow899 I mean, it's a drone. By definition it is controlled remotely. Probably some sort of central computer that controls the little shooty boys. Why would you give sapience, or even sentience, to something whose only purpose is to be blown up?
It didn't destroy anything non biological, meaning that it only affects biological subjects. But then again I could be wrong, it's been a while since I've seen this film.

As a kid, I was like... Did he die? And the following Astroboy clone/reincarnation thing FREAKED ME OUT. The real kid is super dead and this robot just sorta assumed his identity
@@Joawlisdoingfine That was exactly the dad’s intentions at first, even in the original series from the 1950’s; he wanted to make a copy of his dead son to pretend his son was still alive. Though originally little Aster died driving a car on his own, the same death used again in the second anime; his name changed to Tobio. At least this version of Dr. Tenma didn’t sell him to an abusive robot circus when he realized an android copy wasn’t going to fill the void. Back in the older series it got a lot darker than this movie...
@@kiddfaith4397 In the anime show I watched, Dr. Tenma is actually a bad guy who wants to make Astro the "King of Robots", and I am not sure he even cared about Astro in the first place.
Forget the fact that the scientists had the red core in the testing area, forget the fact that someone not assigned to the project was allowed to directly interact and influence it, forget the lax security that allowed Toby to be there in the first place. The most unbelievable part about this scene to me is that Tenma didn't instantly fly into a psychopathic rage and beat the SHIT out of Stone there, because he was advised not to use the Red Core and he did it anyway, knowing explicitly that it was an "evil energy". It can be proven that he knew it was malicious energy after he himself described the blue core as "sweetness and light, save the dolphins, give peace a chance and so forth?". With that comparison what else would he have thought the red core to be if not the exact opposite: evil. If I was Tenma, I would have kept punching until he stopped moving.
1) They were testing both cores. 2) He sponsored it. They were showing him their progress. 3) It’s Tenma’s son. All of the guards were focused on protecting Stone should something go wrong. Also, they’re idiots. 4) Sorry bud, that’s not how emotions work. If your son fucking DIES in front of you, the first thing you do isn’t blame someone else.
@@littlemoth4956 1) No, they objectively were not. They scheduled this demonstration for the mayor with the explicit intent to ONLY use the Blue Core. They may have developed the red core there and were testing it in other experiments but THIS experiment was ONLY meant for the blue core, and again it was a demonstration planned in ADVANCE, meaning they had time to move the red core to another area. 2) He SPONSORED it but he is not qualified or authorized to use the scientific equipment and why the fuck would he be? They have no idea what training, if ANY, he has with the controls. He barely manages to just guide the robot over to the red core. If you can honestly say you would allow the mayor to hijack control of the project and mess with the controls you don't understand how basic safety protocols work. 3) This is the only fair point you made specifically because I agree they're idiots and that's the only viable explanation for what happened. 4) If you wouldn't violence the man directly responsible for your child's death I don't know what to say to you. Better to simply agree to disagree.
Can someone tell me why that scientist loading the blue/red cores into the robot (that the president eventually pushes aside to insert the red core) is absolutely STACKED
Trust me, whenever someone close to you dies, it's your natural reaction to blame yourself. You can't control what anyone else does, but you're always responsible for your own actions. You get into this mindset that if you'd done something, anything, differently, your loved one might not be dead. It might not be a rational belief, but it's an understandable one.
As a person who watch this as a kid like a million times yes he dies but he dies cause he wants to get a closer look at the peace keeper cause he didn’t know what type of technology it was but when it went on a rampage he got to close and died but your right it was the presidents fault this happened cause he needed a “war machine”

@Richard Thang Sometimes when making a RUclips comment, the comment itself won’t load. Even if you refresh. It may be due to a shitty connection, something went wrong, whatever.

I'd say quite the opposite. In terms of jokes it was hit or miss, and the character designs were a fluke. The edgy kids under rule by Hameg were weird, and Zog's voice was better than his appearance.
It's genuinely hard to tell which version of Astro's origin was darker: Disintegrated by a prototype military robot gone rogue while his father watches on helplessly, or stealing his dad's car and getting run over due to his father's neglect.
At least he isn't like the guy in charge who does not take responsibility and showed as much care as one would give to a broken toy you never really cared for.
One of my childhood fulfilling movies. Even tho i didn't knew it's actual origin. "If you lose your son like that, and you don't go crazy You are not a human being."
You know this make kinda curious as to how peacekeeper would have acted if he has taken the blue core instead of the red core, like how would he have responded to being attack by those machines
If I had to guess, instead of attacking everything around it, it would have defended itself. Destroying/neutralizing the drones then just standing around for whatever else may attack it. More defense rather than offense
I was curious about that too but I guess that’s fan-fiction for another year about that but if I had to take a guess just like they said “sweetness and life save the dolphins give peace a chance” so yeah
When the robot was near the glass wall and looking dead in the eyes of everybody behind that glass... the sound effects were non other than the first video game ratchet and clank!!!
@@ruttsuco.804 it's a possibility but non the less he should have told him to go far away from the conmotion, it was the best option specially if he really didn't knew the outcome... poor guy, everything happened so fast he was probably focused on how to get his son out of there overall
@@terror.g6015 yeah I liked that cause it shows to kids that being a kid doesn't mean that everything is gonna be alright, parents some times won't be able do anything, the importance of being cautios, and self preservation... you know, stuff we don't see nowdays
This movie was alright. Just like the peace keeper it had a few noticeable flaws (my biggest one being the villain president stone cause man is he a boring man child) also if this followed the source material a bit more it’d be awesome. In the original manga and animation toby’s dad went coo-koo for coco puffs levels of crazy and he’s played by Nicholas Cage! I mean cmon Nicolas Cage as a mad scientist that’s like everything I could ever want! But he plays it too subdued and somber while it’s sympathetic it’s just making his only problem being he never really knew his son that well so it has to be a failure. Cage isn’t the only massive star hardly used to full potential either, Samuel Jackson is ZOG and while his lines are awesome being the original Baymax in this movie he’s not utilized much either aside from bringing Astro boy back. There’s also a lot of little kid jokes and jokes that are just hit and miss in general. But it’s still a fun film and that’s why I like it.
As a kid I loved this movie. As a young adult... why the hell would they leave the dangerous core out in sight? Like if they didn’t plan on using the damn thing why the hell wouldn’t they just... leave it in a dark pit somewhere?
That’s touched upon earlier. Dr. O’shay (I know he’s called something else in the movie) had no interest in letting the red core see any use, but said that he and the other scientists hadn’t figured out how to properly dispose of it yet.
"We're not putting something that dangerous into something, that dangerous." This sentence is literally every evil robot movie to ever exist except this one is was a lot cooler and a tad bit dark if you know that the robot literally vaporized his son in front of him.
WOW 1st - there is the stupidity of positive and negative "energy" being tied to morality. 2nd - they have sentient drones 3rd - they use those sentient drones as fodder in a test 4th - they have a live fire test like that without the big protective barrier 5th - they disintegrated a kid Just WOW; but also WHAT
A little late, but there's also the plothole of "WHY?" Why did the senator NEED a weapon like this in the first place if the city has been at peace for decades. There's no imminent threat , so therefore no reason for it. You could make the argument he needs it to scare off the opposing political party, but the fact that we're never even shown or told about it is a massive misstep. They could have made it so the city SEEMS perfect on the surface, but that behind the scenes its at the brink of civil war. That would have been pretty interesting and would have actually made the inciting incident make more sense
1. there not really tied to morality just the core make the thing they power ether less violent or more violent 2. robots with full a.i people have done this in fiction a lot 3. people dont really care bout robots because they can be rebuit plus thos droins were design for this kind of thing that like making a car and not driving it 4.ok i gave you that but maybe that what the emercy barrior is for 5. its astro boy the kid had to die somehow plus in the original astro get sold to robot abusing circus by his own creator so this is actully less mess up
The part where the Peacemaker was trying to get out and just ignoring Toby implies that killing all of the scientists LATER was more important to it than killing the boy NOW, which truly is philosophical when you think about it
(Mega Man and friends crossover) Dr. Tenma: TOBY!!! Mega Man (fully charged): NOOOOOOOOOO!!! (Later) Dr. Tenma: Where’s Toby? Where’s my son? Auto: No idea really! Assistant: I’m so sorry, Tenma! Roll: Look! Rush (Fully Charged): (Whines) Zane: He’s gone! Dr. Tenma: Toby! Zero: Toby! (Shouts)
*"You're right about one thing, I DO need capital AND votes."* *"Wanna know why? I have a dream!"* *"That one day every person in this nation will control their OWN destiny."* *"A land of the TRULY free dammit."* *"A nation of ACTION, not words. Ruled by STRENGTH, not committee."* *"Where the law changes to suit the individual, Not the other way around."* *"Where power and justice are back where they belong: in the hands of the people!"* *"Where every man is free to think -- to act -- for himself!"*
I like that in these kinds of movies where you have the positive and negative energy, they don’t do anything to hide the obviously evil energy or lock it away, they just Have it sitting there
Personally I love this movie! I always thought Astro was very cool! This was even my first interaction with him. My mom thought the story was too depressing with his son dying and him later giving up Astro. Yet she’s watched and loves the Never-Ending Story. Also this has always been the story of Astro Boy. The ways Tobio dies may be different but the rest is the same. Plus it has great cast, Arthur, Ghost Rider, Princess Anna (before Frozen too!), Nick Fury, etc.
@@internetduck1114 I just don’t like how unlike all the other robots in the movie like Zog, Tobie, Orrin and Trashcan, they refer to the Peacekeeper using the pronoun “it” instead of “he”. I feel like if they used “he” instead of “it”. It would make the Peacekeepers character more specific or accurate. I mean you understand what I’m saying, right?
It’s funny how when you watch movies like this for the first time at the ages 8 - 12, they seem like masterpieces. Until you turn 18 - 22 and say to yourself, “What the hell is this? Nothing really makes sense, and it’s stupid.”
You can find flaws in most movies if you look hard enough. Doesn't mean you can't like it. And imo, a story only has to get 70% of the stuff right to be generally likeable. The rest, you can ignore or fill in the gaps.
Original thought: I thought it would be cool, that if a second movie would have been made, that the original astro would come back from a negative energy dimension as a villain. Like, it might not follow the OG story, but a biological being with red energy consuming him sounds awesome.

If I had to guess, instead of attacking everything around it, it would have defended itself. Destroying/neutralizing the drones then just standing around for whatever else may attack it. More defense rather than offense
@@ruttsuco.804 Probably, you think it'll be like zog situation like being friendly and all that?
@@dantenadir2850 honestly, maybe. And on the flip side, Zog with red core energy would probably be very violent
I was curious about that too but I guess that’s fan-fiction for another year about that but if I had to take a guess just like they said “sweetness and life save the dolphins give peace a chance” so yeah
@@ruttsuco.804 Aside from neutralizing, I think it would also prioritize the absorption technology.
When the robot was near the glass wall and looking dead in the eyes of everybody behind that glass... the sound effects were non other than the first video game ratchet and clank!!!
Pretty sure ratchet and clank is not the first ever video game but ok
@@moltensh4dow506 he talks about the first Ratchet & Clank game
Red core, the power of rage.
Blue core, the power of hope.
Put them both together
The power of loyalty. & Both. Edit.
The animation in this still looks amazing. Totally one of my favorite childhood movies out there
This entire scene is just a masterpiece
My childhood memories were right. They WERE THAT BIG!
I think it’s ironic that the robot is called the “peacekeeper” because it’s violent and scary.
I always loved that the guards on here aren’t technically evil they’re just doing their job.
1:15 That doc had no business packing so much meat, got me developing a crush as a kid
Down bad.
@@abovearth6740 damn straight
"Ha ha- oh you're not joking"
He should have told Toby to run to the bottom of the room, he may have survived by standing behind the robot
I was thinking the exact same when I saw that scene 😂😂
I don’t think he knew what the robot was going to do
@@ruttsuco.804 it's a possibility but non the less he should have told him to go far away from the conmotion, it was the best option specially if he really didn't knew the outcome... poor guy, everything happened so fast he was probably focused on how to get his son out of there overall
@@LuxCirilo but in all honesty that death was on Toby himself lol. It was his bright idea to get closer to the killing machine.
@@terror.g6015 yeah I liked that cause it shows to kids that being a kid doesn't mean that everything is gonna be alright, parents some times won't be able do anything, the importance of being cautios, and self preservation... you know, stuff we don't see nowdays
This movie was alright. Just like the peace keeper it had a few noticeable flaws (my biggest one being the villain president stone cause man is he a boring man child) also if this followed the source material a bit more it’d be awesome.
In the original manga and animation toby’s dad went coo-koo for coco puffs levels of crazy and he’s played by Nicholas Cage! I mean cmon Nicolas Cage as a mad scientist that’s like everything I could ever want! But he plays it too subdued and somber while it’s sympathetic it’s just making his only problem being he never really knew his son that well so it has to be a failure. Cage isn’t the only massive star hardly used to full potential either, Samuel Jackson is ZOG and while his lines are awesome being the original Baymax in this movie he’s not utilized much either aside from bringing Astro boy back. There’s also a lot of little kid jokes and jokes that are just hit and miss in general. But it’s still a fun film and that’s why I like it.
This movie is definitely getting the attention it truly deserves
I wouldn't say it's getting the attention it deserves, knowing that the 60's and 80's anime including the manga had a better lore than this movie.
"Ha! It's like a video game!"
- President Stone
"I will admit, I am very good at video games."
- President Obama
COINCIDENCE? I THINK NOT!
You take the blue core, you go to the energy you know.
You take the red core, and you never look at energy the same way again.
As a kid I loved this movie. As a young adult... why the hell would they leave the dangerous core out in sight? Like if they didn’t plan on using the damn thing why the hell wouldn’t they just... leave it in a dark pit somewhere?
That’s touched upon earlier. Dr. O’shay (I know he’s called something else in the movie) had no interest in letting the red core see any use, but said that he and the other scientists hadn’t figured out how to properly dispose of it yet.
They couldn’t dispose of it. Besides, they were testing both cores.
The pure luck everyone has to never be struck by any bullets while being so close
I probably haven't seen this movie for a decade and I still somehow remember almost every line.
1:12
“Ha, it’s like a video game.”
3:01 look how Toby's father is already depressed
0:53 President Stone: Well, Call Me A Dreamer
But, I Think We'll Get A Bit More
"Bang For Our Buck" Using The Red One
(Red Core)
3:17 *WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOU LUNATIC!?!?*
- One of however many people watching this movie probably
2009
"We're not putting something that dangerous into something, that dangerous." This sentence is literally every evil robot movie to ever exist except this one is was a lot cooler and a tad bit dark if you know that the robot literally vaporized his son in front of him.
This movie had its issues but it has some banger lines.
"We're not putting something that dangerous, into something that dangerous."
2:06 no wonder he's the bad guy. He flunked out of college.
WOW
1st - there is the stupidity of positive and negative "energy" being tied to morality.
2nd - they have sentient drones
3rd - they use those sentient drones as fodder in a test
4th - they have a live fire test like that without the big protective barrier
5th - they disintegrated a kid
Just WOW; but also WHAT
Yeah this movie is big dumb
A little late, but there's also the plothole of "WHY?" Why did the senator NEED a weapon like this in the first place if the city has been at peace for decades.
There's no imminent threat , so therefore no reason for it.
You could make the argument he needs it to scare off the opposing political party, but the fact that we're never even shown or told about it is a massive misstep.
They could have made it so the city SEEMS perfect on the surface, but that behind the scenes its at the brink of civil war.
That would have been pretty interesting and would have actually made the inciting incident make more sense
I agree with you in all of that but I have to guess is that it's for the sake of the plot.
@@filipvadas7602 maybe the guy is a Communist who wanted to control the city?
1. there not really tied to morality just the core make the thing they power ether less violent or more violent
2. robots with full a.i people have done this in fiction a lot
3. people dont really care bout robots because they can be rebuit plus thos droins were design for this kind of thing that like making a car and not driving it
4.ok i gave you that but maybe that what the emercy barrior is for
5. its astro boy the kid had to die somehow plus in the original astro get sold to robot abusing circus by his own creator so this is actully less mess up
"Its like a video game" proceeds to do manslaughter
Just like a video game
"Just like the simulations"
The animation for this movie held up very well, looks like a movie that would be in 2021.
Disintegrates everything,organic and inorganic ... except one single hair and a cap ...how convenient! 😁
You know I always had a theory that he was absorbed not killed
I think that is what happend too. You see it happen later in the movie as well.
@@Casperdroid5 the robot can absorb but it shows he tried to destroy the barrier and it kills Toby
Imagine if they went the route of Toby becoming the peacekeeper and having him fight Astro
@@purpledragon1945 NOW THAT would've been pretty twisted and dark, even for Astro Boy standards...
1:15 I just want to say, she looks really good
Grandson: Grandpa was is “Astro Boy”?
Me: Let me tell you a great story so sit down
"Hey Boss should we leave that dangerous red core near the equally dangerous robot?" "Yeah sure what could go wrong?"
I remember watching this as a kid:0 Brings back memories and nostalgia
This is a total nostalgia
Honestly, this was the best scene in the whole movie.
This movie was literally one of my faves back then!
Ngl, that female scientist STACKED though 😏 1:17
I loved this movie. Seeing this gives me so much nostalgia!
The part where the Peacemaker was trying to get out and just ignoring Toby implies that killing all of the scientists LATER was more important to it than killing the boy NOW, which truly is philosophical when you think about it
0:44 president stone. Always thinking of yourself.
HOLY SHIT IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS CLIP FOREVER
*Rest in peace, Donald Sutherland (he voiced President Stone/Peacekeeper in this film)*
(Mega Man and friends crossover)
Dr. Tenma: TOBY!!!
Mega Man (fully charged): NOOOOOOOOOO!!!
(Later)
Dr. Tenma: Where’s Toby? Where’s my son?
Auto: No idea really!
Assistant: I’m so sorry, Tenma!
Roll: Look!
Rush (Fully Charged): (Whines)
Zane: He’s gone!
Dr. Tenma: Toby!
Zero: Toby! (Shouts)
Why do I love the effect of the glass being absorbed?
That hat is indestructible
Shoulda made his whole outfit outta that and he woulda survived
Where's my son ?
Scientist : I think he's here👈, here 👉, a little bit here 🖕and a lot here 👇. Sory I was obligated to say that 🤣🤣🤣
I feel like an old man now
Thanks for making me sad
That stacked scientist lady should get her own movie.
Down bad.
Bro u just gave me a ton of nostalgia I remember watching this when I was 3 now I’m turning 16 ! Time goes by so fast.
The Blue Core is positive energy and The Red Core is negative energy.
Were the Red and Blue Pills even a Political Analogue in 09?
Those soldiers must be super well-trained. They just watched a child die and didn't even flinch.
There is always this power thirsty politican/general who wreacks everything and then dies at the end
Exactly
But he didn't die at the end. He got arrested.
*"Typical Politicians, big promises but all talk"*
*"You're right about one thing, I DO need capital AND votes."*
*"Wanna know why? I have a dream!"*
*"That one day every person in this nation will control their OWN destiny."*
*"A land of the TRULY free dammit."*
*"A nation of ACTION, not words. Ruled by STRENGTH, not committee."*
*"Where the law changes to suit the individual, Not the other way around."*
*"Where power and justice are back where they belong: in the hands of the people!"*
*"Where every man is free to think -- to act -- for himself!"*
@@VegaFic he doesn’t sound too evil
I like that in these kinds of movies where you have the positive and negative energy, they don’t do anything to hide the obviously evil energy or lock it away, they just
Have it sitting there
Could be a magnetic containment field.
Personally I love this movie! I always thought Astro was very cool! This was even my first interaction with him. My mom thought the story was too depressing with his son dying and him later giving up Astro. Yet she’s watched and loves the Never-Ending Story. Also this has always been the story of Astro Boy. The ways Tobio dies may be different but the rest is the same. Plus it has great cast, Arthur, Ghost Rider, Princess Anna (before Frozen too!), Nick Fury, etc.
I like how he said it's like a video game! Cracks me up
The peacekeeper played a really good good role in this movie, but there’s one thing I find concerning about its character.
The core scene really gets me. Especially with Astro Boy's robot recreation 😄. A pretty good part in my childhood
@@internetduck1114 It sure does.
@@internetduck1114 I just don’t like how unlike all the other robots in the movie like Zog, Tobie, Orrin and Trashcan, they refer to the Peacekeeper using the pronoun “it” instead of “he”. I feel like if they used “he” instead of “it”. It would make the Peacekeepers character more specific or accurate. I mean you understand what I’m saying, right?
Imagine seeing a full on war zone in a laboratory and thinking "I should approach that"
The peacekeeper looks like a robot version of the hulk to me.
This movie was amazing
Love how I got recommended this, years later, I almost forgot about it
This film was pretty good when it came out
It’s funny how when you watch movies like this for the first time at the ages 8 - 12, they seem like masterpieces. Until you turn 18 - 22 and say to yourself, “What the hell is this? Nothing really makes sense, and it’s stupid.”
Usually with a good movie, this process is backwards, but yeah this movie was a bit strange, not really that into it
I'm almost 18 and I don't think this movie is stupid.
@@TheoTungsten well everyone can have their own opinion, I just think they could’ve done better
You can find flaws in most movies if you look hard enough. Doesn't mean you can't like it. And imo, a story only has to get 70% of the stuff right to be generally likeable. The rest, you can ignore or fill in the gaps.
“Put both cores together to create an imaginary robotic mass-“
Hahaha this is the comment I was looking for XD
That hip bump push though.
Original thought: I thought it would be cool, that if a second movie would have been made, that the original astro would come back from a negative energy dimension as a villain. Like, it might not follow the OG story, but a biological being with red energy consuming him sounds awesome.
The total misunderstanding of what "positive" and "negative" mean in a scientific sense
