USA Today has scored the first eight pictures from Speed Racer, the next movie from the Wachowski brothers. Click the image below for the full gallery. We think the look of this film is really going to divide people. The brothers have really gone for a cartoon look in adapting the cult anime. Seriously, this is bright. Do not view if you have any kind of hangover. This is a family film, so the look may prove to be the perfect choice for conveying simple family fun. But could it risk turning off the Matrix audience who will be so anticipating it? Also, we must apologise for the fact that the images here suggest that there were clearly crossed wires when Emile Hirsch told us that the movie would shoot all on green screen. There are obviously sets present. So, how do you feel about the Speed Racer look?

you know, if they're really going to go with this ammount of CGI it would've made more sense for them to just do an animated film. ... Read More Hughezy About me

RE:
that shot of the racetrack reminded me for some reason of one of the first imax films called rollercoaster through new york. If they made this specifically for 3d and the race sequences were partly from hirsch's perspective it could be a very exciting movie. ... Read More BatFan About me
