Some Great New SPEED RACER Footage Shows Up Online!

Hey, everyone. “Moriarty” here. Okay... I had to backtrack this one to the source. I see that The Moving Picture.net ran this footage on April 1st, but I can't tell when The Trailer Addict.com ran it. I've never clicked on either of those sites before in my life, so I'm not even sure if they were the first to post links to it. All I know is it's new to me, and it appears to be an exclusive that was given to an insurance company. So respect the exclusive. I'm not embedding it. Go to this site and select “Exclusive Video” from the three options you’re offered. Then come back here so we can compare notes. Personally, I think it’s awesome. The format it’s encoded in sucks, it doesn’t do the image justice, but even so... wow. It’s TRON. That’s what this reminds me of most. It’s TRON, but with the palette of THE FIFTH ELEMENT. And that sounds pretty good to me. Thanks to Ari for the heads-up on this, and at this point, I am counting the days till I can see this and IRON MAN. I think May’s going to get off to an unusually strong start this year, and I can’t wait.
