Was Aeon Flux's veiwership bigger then Daria's? What if the movie flops?
The reason I'm asking this is because MTV found time to release an Aeon Flux box set yet there's no rational explanation considering it's culty nature in comparison to Daria's. Unless I'm misunderstanding the cult of Flux.
i never got the show either. i don't understand it's appeal...

The original shorts are great, really a parody of action films and the like. I mean, you have rivers of blood and she dies in each story (a pre-Kenny, if you will). If you have Netflix rent the 3rd disk of the box set, which has all the shorts with commentaries. Never cared for the half hour episodes myself, and those are what they're basing the movie on.
Maybe AF was chosen, because Daria doesn't have such cool latex outfit? ;)

Probably closer to the truth than some might like. Methinks that its vague similarity with some of the anime hits might have made Viacom execs believe that it might actually have made an impact with the otaku out there.
As for Daria in a cool latex outfit... we can dream, can't we? ;)

I didn't watch anime for a few years, so I'm not up-to-date. Surely anime fans are also interested in other kinds of animation, comics etc. And Aeon Flux movie is coming (already came?) out. It's time for AF t-shirts, AF games, AF cereals... so there's also AF DVD release.
Rrrr... feisty! :D

The creator of Aeon Flux was hired to do the character designs for an anime, "Reign", about iirc Alexander the Great. His art style is... different :)
Isn't that the same guy that did Rugrats?
