I wonder something. Do you think, that back in the 1960’s, that people working on T.V. shows, every T.V. show, ever thought to themselves; “Someday, in the distant future a full-length, feature movie will be made that is based on this show?”
Latest victim, the goofy cartoon “Speed Racer”.

“It’s going to be like nothing you’ve seen before — really,” echoed “Lost” star Matthew Fox, who plays the mysterious Racer X in the flick. “Larry and Andy [Wachowski] are huge fans of the material, so they’re going to pay homage to that and respect that in their version of ‘Speed Racer.’ But the world that they’re defining is so unique to itself.”
You know, just because something is “like nothing you’ve seen before”, that probably isn’t enough to get me to go see it. There are a lot of things I haven’t seen before that I don’t need to see.
In the original Speed Racer; the best part was the opening sequence.
That’s going to be tough to beat.
Question(s) of the day:
What is the best movie based on a T.V. series?
What is the worst?
