So this is the Wachowski's version of speed racer that hit's theater's next may. The first time i saw this i was like "what the fuck?"

that definitely looks.....different.

It seems like for everything they got right, they got something really wrong. The casting is good, but most of the acting isn't. The only people who seem to have gotten the idea (at least from the trailer) is Christina Ricci and the guy playing the business tycoon or whatever. I'll have to wait and see, I guess. At least they put the grease guns in there.

Sold. I don't even know if I like it, yet I'm sold. It could be great, it could be Dick Tracy.

I think it looks pretty good. I like the CG. It seems to work for this particular movie.

i hate how people try and make movies into cartoons.... he new batman was great cause it was a movie, not a cartoon. this looks like a bad joke

during the audio, i would mistime the dialogue by about 2 seconds just to make it seem more like the cartoon

It has a chimp named, "Chim Chim." Sign me up.

for some reason i still don't know what to make of it? it definitely looks interesting though.

i really enjoyed this one.

This looks almost as good as Jumpers.

I had fun watching this. It certainly wasn't a great movie or anything, but it was visually spectacular and really just a cute homage to the old cartoons.


I will say that what's his face from V for Vendetta (the guy that played Prothero) was great, except that I kept expecting him to shout ENGLAND PREVAILS.

There's something I've always wondered about Racer X, and mind you this is coming from someone who's never really seen much of the TV series. I know the deal is that he's Speed's older brother "in hiding", that for as much interaction Speed has with him, he never knows this fact.

But basically, does that come across as silly, because pretty much every other character in the story can tell quite easily that X is Speed's brother? Is it that kind of set up?

I'm also assuming based on all the trailers that Racer X is supposed to be talking that deliberately and stilted, I mean I realize Matthew Fox may not have a ton of fans in the world, but he's not that bad of an actor. His dialogue in the trailers comes off as SO strange and forced, I figure that has to be on purpose.

this movie looks like poop.

I'm going to see this in 3 hours... i'll post thoughts later.

Very colorful film... not as long as I thought it was going to be. I enjoyed it.

$20M at the box office. Big-time flop, based on its $160M budget.

Sucks for them. I still enjoyed it though.

Holy shit, yea I just looked at the IMDB breakdown. The Wachowskis must be looking at themselves in disbelief right now, saying "dude, we made the same amount of money as What Happens In Vegas..."
