    Default Speed Racer movie!

    I am soooooo psyched about the upcoming live-action movie that's coming up! Along with Sailor Moon, Speed Racer was one of the first Japanese animations I had seen. It's so cheesy and nostalgic, I love it!

    Here's a link to the trailer, and it looks great! Hmm, I envisioned Speed being more of a pretty boy, and IMHO Christina Ricci is more glamorous and womanly, unlike the lighthearted Trixie. THe rest of the cast looks great, especially the dad and the little brother. I wonder how the Japanese will like it.

    Doesn't that movie just look ridiculously entertaining? And the colors!

    I agree, though, Emile Hirsch as Speed Racer is... iffy. That's my only point of concern at this point. Christina Ricci, however, I think has enough acting fu to pull off Trixie...

    Not nearly as much as the Koreans, I'm guessing... mainly because of Rain being in the cast.

    YAAAAAYYYYYYY!

    I actually used to watch Speed Racer when it was first run and I used to love it.
    I question both Emile and Christina.

    Maybe because I see them as too edgy? I picture Emile as Jay Boy in Lords of Doggtown whenever I see him and Christina...well, is there a movie where she isn't edgy besides Mermaids?
