Talk about the hard sell...
-
Wow looking better and better...
And no way I got first.. is there? -
awesome
-
But I will watch it bitches!!!!!!!
-
Unless the script is absolutely fantastic, that CGI overkill is gonna get old after 10 minutes.
-
I looks like they're behind on they're rendering and they keep sending new footage to the trailer cutters. Which would explain the improvement in the trailer quality...
-
I don't know if the movie will be good or bad, but it's obviously going for a purposefully super-stylized world that the CGI is there to create. At a certain point bitching "too much CGI" in a movie like this is like saying "too much animation!!!" when you go to see an animated film.
-
WB needs to start stepping up their marketing for this.
-
can't see the movie for the CG!
-
I'm sure not too long ago it was just 1 teaser, 1 trailer and probably 1 international trailer.
-
Honestly I don't get all the complaints about the CG...it's Speed Racer! Why would you expect realism in Speed Racer?
-
the more times I watch trailers for this psychedelia.
-
I have no idea how much this movie cost, but can you spell 'Ishtar'?
-
Can't wait lol
-
I need more Cowbell.
-
I've said it once, and I'll say it again, no 10 year old in any industrialized country in the world will miss this movie!!
-
Seriously, why is it the internet has to push this button with me all the time. 2nd Grade people - To vs. Too, Their vs. There vs. They're, etc
-
This movie will make an ungodly ammount of money. Seriously. This will make more in the first showing that n Leatheheads makes in its entire run. Looks perfect. By the way- Walmart and other places have Hotwheel speed racer cars (mach 4,5,6 Racer X, and others) for very cheap. $$$$ makes movies. As Mel Brooks said--Moichandising.
-
It's too easy to say they're too lazy with their grammar. There.
-
Who's interested in this friggin lame kiddie pic anyway? Can we have real news plz? Thanks.
-
I'm there.
-
...before going along with the biggest film cliche ever of a movie you most likely haven't even seen...
-
the careers of those one trick pony motherfucking Wachowski brothers I don't know what will. How many flops can these two shit nuggets make before people realize The Matrix was all they ever really had? What a waste of time and money.
-
Sorry to disappoint, fella, but I have seen it. A miscast so-so buddy movie at best. The point I was making was the about the amount of money thrown at it vs. the return, which is what I think will be echoed with Speed Racer.I may be wrong, but I'll buy you a beer if it makes it's money back domestically.

The movie looks like a lot of fun and i am not even a SpeedRacer fan. Cool.
-
love the firecrotches
-
You are wrong. This is exactly what the Wachowskis needed to get there career back on track. While I won't deem it until I actually see the movie, all signs are looking good. Wachowskis- if you pull this off, I'll officially forgive you for Matrixes parts 2 and 3. There.
-
Mammoth has a frickin' rocket launcher on it that speed jumps then racer x inverts he car and opens on on the Mammoth with 3 Gatling guns! THAT is why this movie is going to be cool!
btw, it just so happens that the mammoth car episode of the cartoon was my favorite! -
And release ALL the footage before the movie opens. D'oh!
-
Yippee!!!
-
The world that made in this looks amazing, it's just what a Speed Racer movie SHOULD look like. It's also the definition of how CG can work. You can say it looks like a cartoon and bitch, but why it's stupid to bitch about that is it's BASED on a cartoon! It's a live-action cartoon for christs sakes, how can you be so narrow-minded to understand that?
-
Since we are defying the laws of physics in this movie in such a blatant manner I will pretend it’s a cartoon and enjoy it.
-
Yes, and so was 'Rocky & Bullwinkle' and we all know what a fun-packed family rollercoaster that was, don't we?
-
I have a friend who is working on the special effects for Speed Racer (still, as the movie isn't finished, yet) and he says it's an absolute clusterfuck. Apparently, everything looks like shit, so they've been telling the animators to just have shit move really fast, so you can't tell how bad it looks.
-
and he looks good here, even if his voice sounds like Kermit the Frog trying to talk tough.

Are people pretending they were fans of this as children?
by nocalflicks
I am not trying to insult anyone, people like what they like, but it just seems like there are way more people claiming they "loved this as a kid" then actually watched it back in the day....
-
banana show 4 bhat!
-
I wonder how stuck up you gotta be to not get the pure joy from this movie? Oh wait I forgot this is AICN where people come to hate on everything.
-
Fuck the haterz, they have no souls. I can't WAIT for this.
-
Looks good, but that part completely threw me out of the film. :P
-
the pretty colours
-
brother/sister film director duos who stick so much CGI into their movies that they literally transform you into the opposite sex.
-
I hope their crippling addiction to candy is addressed in this film. They would routinely sell Speed out (or tell a secret) for a box of sugar coated treats, and then feel bad about it, and cry like lunatics. Never trust a junky! Seriously, they need to seek professional addiction help of some kind or continue their downward spiral into sugar-coated addiction.
-
Good name for an avant retardo band.
-
... but this looks badass. A rip-roarin', ass-kickin' movie that might work for adults too. I don't know, but I'm still a big fan of the Wachowskis, so I'll check "Speed Racer" out.
-
What the fuck! Honestly... can't you guys read one article without having to resort to the need to comment in the talkback?! Look at how many fucking comments there are!!! TOO MUCH!!!P.S. The Matrix Trilogy OWNS your asses! Hate 2 and 3 all you want but monetarily speaking they were far far far from flops... and that's precisely the reason why the Wachowski brothers can make whatever they want, and it's all good to me because Reloaded and Revolutions were awesome! I need Speed Racer on blu-ray the day after I see this in the cinema! This is going to be the movie that hi-def enthusiasts use to calibrate, test and compare the true worth of their set ups!
-
And added to the fact that the new Mario Kart comes out a couple of weeks before the movie. Gonna make we want to see it even more.
-
A Shaolin Cowboy sign at the start of the last 1/4 of the trailer where Speed and Racer X are racing at night... Can't tell you the timeframe though... I'm just going through it in IE.
-
I think it looks good. It obviosuly wont be a "serious" speed, but fun all the same
-
I watched the four minute international trailer and was very surprised to see not only Matthew Fox talking to Speed NOT in disguise but Speed actually make his trademark "Aaaah!" exclamation and then follow it with "This race is full of cheaters". I'm so there when this comes out. Imax or bust.
-
Adventure's waiting just aheaaaad!
But---wtf's ALPHA TEAM's "Go Speed Go"?? -

This fracking chimp joke was lame in the 80s already!
by motoko kusanagi
I mean, WTF?!?!?!?!
-
If you aren't a fan of the original show, you suck. If you aren't salivating at the visuals in these trailers, you suck. If you whine about too much CGI in this film, you suck. If you think Speed is gay, you suck. If you think Matthew Fox sounds like Kermit the Frog, you suck. If you whine that the movie looks too unrealistic, you REALLY suck. Essentially, if you are one of the typical AICN'ers who trashes movies you haven't seen, not only do you suck, but you will never have children, and your life's great achievement will be that you complained on TalkBack, you loser. . . . Just kidding. Jesus loves you.
-
Did I see guns on the Mach 5? Uh oh. Not a good sign.
-
Every single time, its happened over 5 times now, whats up?
-
This movie is going to flop BIG and reveal the Wachoswkies as the fakes they are !
-
getting ready to push the dirt in on the Wachowskis while they sit in that hole they dug for themselves with The Shitrix 2 and 3. Speedracer, bombing at a theater near you!
-
you're probably fucking stoopid and will be the one lone viewer in the theater. Feel free to SUCK yourself off. Lord knows you SUCK, SUCKER. PS, put down the dope and pick up a book fucktard.
-
Honestly, complaining that this looks "too CG" is ridiculous!The only thing that's supposed to be real is the actors...and THAT'S IT!!!Like 'Sin City' or '300', the environment is supposed to be COMPLETELY artificial and COMPLETELY sylised!Seriously, it's time to stop bitching about filmmakers trying to make films that are genuinely DIFFERENT (I mean, that IS what we all want, isn't it?), and it's time to start cheering for 'Speed Racer' to GoGoGo!!!
