Robin Williams: The Anime Fan Date: 3/10/2005 |
The Argus Leader reprinted a USA TODAY interview with the actor Robin Williams on his new voice role in the American CG Animated film ROBOTS and uncovered the following jewel: Q: Did you always like cartoons? A: I was always a hard-core Warner Bros. fan. Elmer and Daffy and (animator) Tex Avery. I collect a lot of Japanese anime. I am waiting to see "Steamboy." The Japanese are very aware that animation isn't just for kids to the point of making pornography. They make deeply dark movies, science-fiction movies. Williams' character in the Hollywood film One Hour Photo bought the little boy of a family he was stalking a Neon Genesis Evangelion action figure. |
