Here’s the second full-length trailer for the first installment of Yukihiko Tsutsumi’s 20th Century Boys trilogy. It’s the longest one yet, coming in at over 2 minutes, but is still careful to hold back on footage of the giant plague-spreading robot that will likely be the “money shot” segment of the movie. Jason Gray got to see it in its entirety a few weeks ago and seemed pretty positive. The rest of Japan will get their chance this Saturday (8/30) when the film gets its nation-wide domestic release, courtesy of Toho.

@yobgol Most DVDs are interlaced to look better on older TVs. It does seem a bit tougher for PC players to deinterlace Viz releases though (Thu. 4:47pm)
