I'm not going to lie. I've never liked Speed Racer. Frankly, it just always seemed moronic to me... you know, like Scooby Doo, but with more explosions. Anyway, someone out there must like it since the Wachowski brothers saw fit to make a big insanely colorful cinematic version of it (which I'm quite sure will also be terrible). I guess I vaguely understand the nostalgia factor for people who enjoyed the show when they were young, but I just tried to get through an episode and it really hasn't aged well. Ugh, the dialogue... And every time they talk about the car being a Mach 5, I think of razorblades. Oh, and what is up with the strange man with the little Hitler-style mustache? Give me Grape Ape any day.
