People not tethered to the past aren't that stuck on something like Speed Racer.

What next? Should I be upset about a Popples revival that is not faithful to canon? Sorry, I just vomited as I typed that. :x

Gosh.  They look like someone chucked up Trix in stuffed animal form.

The reason I brought it up is there was a cartoon too. I think one episode used a car wash as a setting.

Speed Racer - the movie in which John Goodman looks like Saddam Hussein.

There's one thing to improve on a product, like Nolan's Batman over Burton's cartoonish shitfest bullshit, and then there's taking a product like Speed Racer, and remodeling it for the animetard Assburger generation.

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

My biggest beef with Pitch Perfect was that it was supposed to be a capella singing competition but they beefed up all the songs with instrumentation.



They did?

I had the same!  :w00t: My brother had the one who turned into a football.

Speed Racer is a bad movie based on a bad cartoon.
