The movie breaks in half before sinking, with one half staying afloat a little longer than the other!
Don't I get a cookie?

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm not sure another movie can approach that without Jason Statham on crack.
I know that John Goodman fights a ninja. And there's a snake-apult. And Vikings.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
John Goodman fights a ninja
Dude. That's like Newhart flipping out like a mammal in The Librarian. Which I haven't seen, but wouldn't mind catching.
And Vikings are always good.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I actually enjoyed the hell out of Speed Racer. But I saw it in Imax, so that might just have been the visual overload talking.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
There's nothing wrong with Speed Racer that a competent editor couldn't have fixed. The Wachowskis need to have their final cut card revoked, is all.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I saw Speed Racer with mac and enjoyed it. It is totally like watching a video game with non-action bits in between that are in a candy world with super saturated colors and awesome cartoonish clothes.

Oooh, wait, I thought John Goodman fought ninjas in Crank 2. And there were Vikings. This makes more sense.

Always Anti-fascist!
John Goodman ninja fights might be worth a rental...I find having prepaid movie rentals makes me more accepting and more willing to try stuff than paying for individual viewings.
