No, no. You win the grand prize of a two week internship with the Science Patrol.

This movie was awesome. Go see Speed Racer.

Don't listen to the critics, they all start off talking about how much the Wachowski's suck or are supposed to be gods or how 2hrs is too long for kids. A lot of them think it's too psychedelic or whatever.. I'm not sure most of them saw the film.

The kid who plays Spritle is hilarious, he and the chimp had me laughing out loud a bunch of times.

The design is beautiful.

Critics talk about how Emile Hirsh is one dimensional but that's the whole point. Speed Racer is futuristic white trash. He grew up in a family of poor mechanics and only wanted to race cars. He's dating a girl he met in grade school, and "only got through high school with her help." He doesn't want to sign with corporate sponsors cause daddy says they're the devil.

He's not aspirational at all...aside from being the best race car driver in the world.

It's not deep..it's PG.

GO WATCH SPEED RACER AND HAVE FUN.

I've got an original 12" die-cast model of the Mach 5 in my office, does that count? The saw blades are operational.

the best speed racer was the one where they dug up the grave to get the engine that was so fast you had to take a special drug in order to drive the car...and the drug makes you crazy and the bad guys use chim chim and spridle as test subjects.

That one WAS rad.

This movie looks like crap.
Wouldn't see it in the theatre even if you paid me.

"it's still a great yarn about family and not selling out. That's an important message to the Wachowskis and why we all connected to the show."

LOLZ!!
