SPEEEEEED RACER

Speed Racer In Theaters May 9th (http://speedracerthemovie.warnerbros.com/)

Dude, whut? I saw it on the side of a bus and I was like "i'm awake aren't i??/" :confused:

It's been harrowing my dreams.

Opininos pls?

[Flying Mullet]

It looks like crap.

[Bahamut2000X]

I might see it just for the hilarity factor. But then comes the issue that I'm spending money on that atrocity.

If their lips move in synch with speech then it ain't Speed Racer.

[Dreddz]

It looks like crap.

[Breine]

I actually think it looks pretty good. The Warchowski Bros. are talented, and with them behind the steering wheel (get it? ;)) it's bound to be at least well made. I think I'm gonna see it in the cinema when it comes out, but I'm not entirely sure.

Also, I hope this'll be Christina Ricci's big break. She deserves to get one already!

[I Took the Red Pill]

I won't see it in fear that it will rape the nostalgic glory that Speed Racer brought to my childhood.

[ljkkjlcm9]

I think the movie is taking itself too seriously... which I think will be a major hurt to it. Speed racer should be comedic, not extremely serious. But from everything I've seen, it's extremely serious.

On another note, you can watch it and see all the crazy colors and stuff instead of getting high or what not lol

THE JACKEL

[Raistlin]

I was wrong about Iron Man, but this movie is definitely crap.

[Fonzie]

I might try it when I'm on acid just to see how better it'd be.

[Madame Adequate]

Everyone here is clearly already on acid, because Speed Racer looks totally kickass.

[Goldenboko]

It looks like crap.

[Bunny]

Horribad comes to mind.

[Dolentrean]

I don't think it looks very good, but for some reson I am drawn to it... I can't explain it.

[Boney King]

I don't think it looks very good, but for some reson I am drawn to it... I can't explain it.
This.

[Big D]

I've got only the faintest glimmer of interest this film and the TV series that spawned it, but I'll say this: the film's visual style, whether you admire it or utterly loathe it, is damn creative. Gloriously artificial, like the worst aesthetics of the 1950s and the present day blended into a surreal new reality.

The film manages to look like a live-action cartoon, even though that notion is a blatant contradiction (and I shall smite any annoying weeaboo who insists that Speed Racer is an Annie-May and not a cartoon), which is an impressive feat.

I doubt I'll see the film. I'd have real difficulty getting into a movie where a character is actually named 'Speed Racer' (although I cope just fine with 'Cloud Strife' and similar silliness...). But, I say we should give credit where it's due, and it looks like this film will be stylistically and cinematographically remarkable.

[Citizen Bleys]

Speed Racer, like the original Star Trek* series, is mainly good because of the unintentional comedy.

A remake? Sounds like fail.

*Still going to see the upcoming Star Trek movie, but only because Sylar is Spock.

[Miriel]

This looks so horribly bad but the Korean community, including my immediate and extended family are all sorts of excited over this just because Korean pop singer Rain (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rain_%28entertainer%29) is gonna be in it. :p

[Nominus Experse]

I am made very afraid of the coming weeks...

[DK]

In my opinion, Susan Sarandon is the hottest 61 year old around.

[Tallulah]

It looks like crap.

[Monol]

Well i like speed racer and soo...

I Freakin loved the movie! It was actually really really fun

And john goodman kicks some butt and thats all that truly matters.

See it for john everyone....see it for john

[Roogle]

I saw a trailer of this movie and I became very interested and excited because I heard a few seconds of the theme song; however, my interested waned as the creative style of the movie does not appeal to me.

The theme song is played only for a few seconds in the trailer and is not referenced after that. That was my favorite part of the whole show!

[DMKA]

Took my little brother to see it opening night. It was a psychedelic cheesefest that I loved every minute of. ^_^

[Shlup]

It looks really good for what it is (I mean, c'mon people, it's Speed Racer), but I like character driven stories, which this is not; therefore, I have no interest in seeing it.
