I have a suspicion that maybe the end of this film sets up a need for a Monica in the sequels, how else do you explain Trevor being there?  Many episodes of the cartoon worked heavily around this wall (the girl that gets cut in half trying to leap her way through the opening, Aeon\u2019s special car that passes under and through the highway wall, etc.).  Without the wall, who are they going to say Aeon is working for?   The website says the city is a practical Utopia, who needs to hire a spy in a Utopia?<\/p>\n<p>Why is nobody allowed outside the city?

Such a letdown considering how awesome the original Peter Chung animated show was.  I think they should have just made it a CG animated thing.  Like the Final Fantasy movie except everybody would still have the very stylistic look of the cartoon.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m going to have to go back and watch all the old episodes again (I have them as mpegs on a CDR  somewhere).  Of course I\u2019ll probably notice even more faults with the movie if I do that so maybe it isn\u2019t a good idea.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By the way, if you feel like seeing something cool ruined once again by Hollywood producers \u2013 check this out.
