Apr.28.2008 Speed Racer is seizureiffic

I just came across the “music video” for the remake of the Speed Racer theme song for the film coming out on May 9th. I’ve never seen such a pleasant array of colors not found in a baby’s diaper.

I don’t know why, but this trailer really got me excited for this movie. I mean, it looks like it’s a movie consisting entirely of Emile Hirsch making angry faces while driving a car created in a Playstation 2 but man, these colors are like so bright. And the camera really seems to spin. I want to bring everyone I know who has a weak equilibrium to see this movie and joyfully eat my popcorn while they roll around on the floor with slobber falling out of the sides of their mouth.

Also I don’t really recall Speed Racer pistol whipping someone in the cartoon but then again I didn’t really watch the cartoon other than when I passed by it on the Cartoon Network at 2AM when I was younger. It definitely had less pistol whipping, more yelling with poor English-synching, and less Christina Ricci breasts. So I’m thinking these are improvements we can all support.
