Frontal lobe: I'm far too cynical about these sorts of films now. Just tick a bunch of boxes on a sheet - robots, girls, guns, katanas - toss it into a blender and try and hold it together with whatever flimsy script you can concoct. It's hard to view a trailer like this and give the makers the benefit of the doubt. I predict a film composed of numerous flashy set-pieces that exist for no valid reason story-wise.

Hypothalmus: Hurr. Pretty girls in their underpants... Fiery explosions! Big guns are cool! I like robots! Boobies!

You have brought me to the realization that I must be missing my frontal lobe.

New trailer with more story to it and less carpet-bombing of the senses, which has the odd effect of making me less interested in seeing it:

if I went 'round saying I was an Emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!

Funnily enough I had the same feeling. It went from seeming a crazy surreal romp to just seeming a little implausible. Now I know that seems a ridiculous thing to say but I couldn't get past the fact that all these glamorous, heavily made up ladies were all in the same institution and the story just seemed like a standard 'quest'. I could imagine the people creating it sitting around saying

"Oh lets just have 'um find five things that means we can blow up five cool worlds?"

" Okey that'll do, right lets get back to the giant samurai robot... "

I'm still into seeing it, but yeah some of the brain melting oh golly factor is gone once you see it's an actual movie and not just some awesome and quite random eye candy. Still, looks gorgeous.

Someone on Bleeding Cool summed this up nicely, it's DeviantArt: The Move.
