Takashi Yamazaki’s first feature, “Juvenile,” while nothing groundbreaking, was a charming directorial debut that teased the potential of the director’s talents moving forward. Sadly, the same cannot be said for his second movie, “Returner,” a visually ugly mess that fails to entertain with its action or engage with its sci-fi storytelling. Much of the production team returns, including visual effects companies Shirogumi and Robot Communications, as do some actors, notably Anne Suzuki, in a more prominent starring role. Starring alongside her is Takeshi Kaneshiro, who cinephiles may best recognize for his collaborations with acclaimed filmmaker Wong Kar-wai. While “Returner” would be a box-office hit, it was met with generally negative reception.

Here’s the first movie poster that we’ve seen from the live-action adaptation of Attack on Titan! It comes from the Anime News Network, and that Titan design looks insane! I’m way stoked to see that thing brought to life in the upcoming two films. To see some previously released character promo art, click here.
According to the report, the taglines on the poster read:
"The world is cruel.""Creator Hajime Isayama x Director Shinji Higuchi x Special Effects Director Katsuro Onoue""Attack on Summer 2015."
The movie is based on the manga and anime created by Hajime Isayama. Here's a breakdown of the story:
Attack On Titan depicts the battles between humans and the giants who now rule the world outside humans' walled enclaves. A typical Titan is on average 30 stories (200 feet) tall. The story initially centers on Eren Yeager, his adopted sister Mikasa Ackerman, and their childhood friend Armin Arlert,...
