XiaoXiaoNeo Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Saw a preview in at the movies a while back, didn't seem all that great to me. I watched the show as a little kid, and enjoyed it a lot, but something doesn't seem right here... looked a little TOO crazy. (If that's at all possible.) Too much CGI for my taste, but hey, whacha gonna do? I might give it a try when it's out on dvd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral_C Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Unfortunately no it isn't. At least its DB not DBZ. Still I can't see them making it any less sickening. Look at the actors again. You think they are doing DB? With young Goku? NO. They've already screwed it up royally... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cecilff2 Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Yeah they aren't doing young Goku which is seriously messed up. The plot is the DB one though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devyn Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Yeah they aren't doing young Goku which is seriously messed up. The plot is the DB one though. Well, the kid playing him is pretty young, don't you think. And even a kid as young as him can play someone 5 years younger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strike911 Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 All of the races look hella fake, the spinning car halfway through the trailer looks hella fake. I'm cool with the acting, but at this point, knowing little about the film and not having seen it, the parts where races take place seems to jar me, removing me from watching a live-action movie into an overtly fake, over the top race. I don't know if they can establish some kind of motif with the fakeness, or if they can spin it so it comes out okay, but right now, I'm intrigued more than anything... and still a little confused.

Adam_Slight Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Looks amazing. Looks less hella fake than a cartoon does.....If the cheesiness depresses people I'm not sure what they're looking for in Speed Racer.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJT Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 it is logically impossible to ruin speed racer. if it was the most campy, horrible movie released in the last 20 years, it'd still be a lateral move. also, i don't wanna spoil it for you, but racer x is speed's older brother.

What? Rex Racer is Racer X? Nonesense. And I feel most people here saw the 90's speed racer cartoon and not the original one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subz1987 Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Well, this movie has a chance of being good. It is being made by the same people who made The Matrix and V for Vendetta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toadofsky Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 It looks like they tried to retain the feeling of the show, kinda strange looking, but I think it won't be too bad a film, you just have to look at it from a different perspective... And in response to the DBZ or DB movie, I've never really liked the show (the Cell Saga was the best to me), but since I've seen nothing in regards to the film, I'll hold judgement. But I wonder, will the whole DBZ film be just Goku charging an attack? Seriously, some of those episodes took 2 hours for an attack to let loose.
