did you know that speed racer's look was based on Elvis? ....a white guy.
Perhaps, but with a name like Mifune, he's obviously intended to be Japanese.

And and Entropy Chicken. Did anyone else think that Larry/Linda Wachowski played that ugly androgynous truck driver in the movie?
Iron Man dominated the international box office this weekend, adding $39 million from 7,500 theaters in its second weekend, while What Happens in Vegas earned $23 million from 3,902 locations and Speed Racer made just $12.8 million from 3,940 theaters overseas
Holy crap ... this movie wasn't even on my radar until I saw these trailers.

The racing segments look like live action clips from the Wipeout video game (and that's a compliment IMO). This has jumped into my Summer Must See List.
Yay! Another Speedracer thread! Man, people are so lazy to check for other threads. hehe
I can't decide if Larry is uglier as a man or woman.
You got me pegged brother.
cue Irish in 5... 4... 3... 2...
It seems like some people expected them to turn Speed Racer into MacBeth.
Tim Robbins commented on how the video and television branches of the same company basically sold themselves the Shawshank TV rights for almost nothing, so whenever it airs he gets a check for like thirty-five cents.
Yeah this will probably be a hit with kids and stoners....
and people with bad taste in movies.
