Speed Racer goes to theaters, reported by USA Today. It’s not really a big deal with all the recent big-screen TV adaptations going on lately. But the fact that this is being headed by The Wachowski Brothers, creators of The Matrix, is enough reason for me to watch this movie.
I’ve been a big fan of The Matrix, it was the movie which popularized the “Bullet-Time” effects which simple kicks ass. And judging by the preview pictures provided for Speed Racer, I can’t helped but drool. The special effects are truly awesome!

The effects are beyond belief. We called it ‘car fu,’ because it was like kung fu with the cars,” Silver says. “We couldn’t have made this movie until right now.
That’s sweet! Aside from the heart pounding special effects, the producers have also included John Goodman and Christina Ricci in the project.
More pictures after the jump! ![]()

Look me in the eye, and tell me that those effects doesn’t make you drool. Can you even try?

Christina Ricci plays as the faithful girlfriend Trixie.

I can just hear the engines heating up now.

Spritle and Chim Chim from the original cartoons are still here.

I find Racer X weird here in this pic. Hehe. Let’s see how well it goes in the movie.

Hope you enjoyed the awesome pictures. I’m really forward to seeing this movie. How about you guys? Are you fans of this cartoon series?

Wow pre! The special effects really does look great. I’ll be sure to expect this. Hehe.
This was my favorite comic growing up, I really hope they don’t mess it up!
Better keep our fingers crossed then, the main actor they took doesn’t really look like speed racer from the cartoon series. Hehe.
Yeah. That’s right Vincent. The effects looks pretty awesome. I’ve read that most of the scenes were shot in a green screen.
