Maybe this explains why South Park parodied Heavy Metal in last night's episode. I thought it was strange that they randomly decided to parody a movie that came out in 1981, but it turns out they were being topical after all.
I actually liked the first one, even though it is almost as juvenile as South Park makes it seem. It was fun sci-fi with at trippy, dark atmosphere. Plus the B-52 bomber scene is the only time a cartoon has ever been as scary as a live-action horror film. Also, it sounds like this movie will go back to being several short animated films, which automatically makes it better than Heavy Metal 2000.
