It was originally titled Blazing Samurai! I haven’t laughed so hard at an animated movie trailer in a long time. Since I first heard about it several years ago, I’ve been looking forward to it. So hopefully, it won’t disappoint.

This flick is a Blazing Saddles, The Karate Kid, Kung Fu Panda, and Isle of Dogs homage!! That is why it is deserving of a Golden Globe or Academy Award nomination for Best Animated Feature Film in 2023!! Do you agree, fams?

This trailer gives me mixed feelings. It appears to be terrible, yet it has the potential to be fantastic. I’ll check it out when it comes out to see whether it’s any good.
