[@theskullyhippiedude3719]

John Goodman's "terrible what passes for a ninja these days" was the best line of the movie.

[@lucasgibbs4050]

Don’t you mean nonja?

[@leonardovelasco5625]

That's what I've been saying! Hahaha how could he possibly know what passes for a ninja??

[@kamixakadio2441]

More like a Nonja

[@Nerdomaly]

I have defended this movie since I first watched it in theaters. It is exactly what it is supposed to be: a live action kids anime. The same feeling that Detective Pikachu would cash in on years later. I unabashedly love this movie.

[@bauloprete3905]

@@bauloprete3905 huuurr duuurrr poor taste huuuur duuuur

[@josephmuniz2839]

Agreed

[@AVdE10000]

Just saw it yesterday and... Yeah this comment is pretty accurate. It's nonsensical, super over dramatical, extremely over the top, all the racers are ridiculous archetypes, the editing and visual effects are cranked up to 11... And I had the biggest goofiest smile on my face during the whole thing. It was everything I hoped it would be and more

F-Zero + Beyblade is a far funnier and accurate description than I would have ever come up with. Kudos on that line especially.

[@youpickwario1992]

Not gonna lie it actually got me excited for the idea.

[@lordicarus8807]

True man, I was watching the video and his comparison made me audibly agree that "yeah, that actually sounds pretty neat!"

I'm surprised there's no mention of John Goodman casually beating the hell outta ninjas.

I tried to turn his weight changes in the movie into a drinking game. I remember more of that night of him buying beers than I did of that game. Sorrynotsorry, Boss.

[@jasonblalock4429]

Dude, he SUPLEXES a ninja. That makes it, like, a billion percent more awesomer. 😀 (Shameful what passes for a ninja these days.)

[@prismal418]

Well, he´s John Goodman after all.

[@brandonquist8394]

@@jasonblalock4429 best part of that was seeing the ninja look at the wrestling ring and just go, "uh-oh" and proceed to have his butt handed to him.

[@nickbh15]

Legitimately one of my favorite movies, that last race still gives me goosebumps

[@frozenninja4030]

They nailed the anime racing bonkers-ness with this movie. It is a blast from start to finish. Love it. Also loved Jupiter Ascending, incidentally.

[@XeniaChow]

One of the awesome things about this film is that they managed to make an action movie out of what is basically 95% close up of faces. It's about the acting and the selling of the characters. It's funny because the original show would use that technique to save on money, but doing so they really stumbled upon a compelling, awesome way to tell a story.

[@master-of-mind5881]

The wackoskis know how to tell a story.

[@Rubiecat]

@@claudiadarling9441 well said ! I'm not a fan of all their films but the ones I love I REALLY love, and I can never criticize them on their lack of investment, even when the stories are bad they remain visually creative with them which is better than a lot of big hollywood names...

so what you are saying is that this movie inspired Oppenheimer

"with races that feel like watching an earthquake at the hot wheels factory" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 accurate asf

[@zachpottinger1842]

Out of all the live action anime adaptations, I still find this more fun.

[@GhostCrowBrother]

Can only agree with you here ❤

[@LuisSierra42]

This one and Alita are the best

[@imaadshahrukh4829]

This is actually the most faithful.

[@hadiferlan3760]

Few of the best anime live-action made by Hollywood.

[@starkillersneed]

@@imaadshahrukh4829 I feel like adapting anime to live action has always been the Wachowski's true calling. A lot of thhe Matrix choreography feels straight out of DBZ.

[@ocuyo6044]

It's more cartoon than the cartoon itself. More colorful, more energetic.

[@TheRockerX]

Still, to this day, one of my favorite films of all time. The final third act race is one of the most HYPE moments I've ever experienced.

[@TheAgr08]

This made my day. I love this movie so much. Never get tired of it. The very definition of 'earnest.'

[@daviddalrymple2284]

Yeah. I love that the Wachowskis so faithfully adapted the source material, warts and all.

[@chriswylie9056]

Earnest Trailers, then?

[@patrickcalip948]

The final race in this movie was so compelling and action packed. A literal acid trip where you got an entire movies worth of exposition in what felt like seconds. It was one of the most hype 3rd acts that I have ever seen. And I still get massive dopamine hits directly to my brain when I watch it. I really loved this movie, and I'm glad that not everyone is hating on it. I guess all the oscar bating is making people long for more simple and fun movies.

[@magus3553]

Now for me to inspire you to watch it today. The final race where RacerEx stands up... When he starts his engine, the sound of it roaring to life, the challenging of the champion "Teach me something," The first time he goes down the huge drop.

[@boeingnz]

Before that I didn't know car can do phycho crusher.

[@sorryitsmoops]

Let me tell you, this movie is wild on an actual acid trip lol. But at the end, when the night is over and you just want to watch awesome flashing colours.

[@SunGawdRa]

There's a video of this race that's set to Jet Set Run. I can't really hear the original anymore. I might have to give Speedracer a rewatching anyway.

[@OhWhatASave]

One of my favorite movies of all time. The final grand prix sequence is outstanding.

[@tonybarnes2920]

I saw this movie when it first dropped for home and thought my TV was going to explode. I didn't get it and didn't want to get it, but my kid loved it, so I ended up seeing it 1000x. After the 3rd time, it started to click and I "got it". I got what it was about. I got how the Wachowski's weren't trying to hide their greenscreen/CGI but embrace it and break the 4th wall with it. I got Susan Surrandon's speech at the end and how not all "art" is a drawing on the page or paper on the wall. Good stuff.

[@TheArtSmith23]

it'a crazy that i never noticed how much green screen was in this movie when i was a kid, but now i can't unsee it

[@TwinRiver100]

3:48 ...oh snap that's actually a good idea. an F-Zero movie does sound interesting if they can get it right.

[@Kytetiger]

Since the movie 1st came out, i'm always telling my friends to watch it. This movie has a coherent fun tone throughout, and the editing skills are still impressive !

[@sherryengle-xe6fv]

WHERE, HOW DID I MISS THIS, LET ME KNOW PLEASE

[@MrDeedsly]

I saw it that Alamo Drafthouse a few months ago for the first time. I was little enraged at myself watching it for sleeping on it like I did.

[@allenchyr7473]

I loved it! The unfortunate thing about its release is that it was eclipsed by the release of Iron Man a week later back in 2008.

[@danielgertler5976]

Really, and it's funny how much films take from this and Scott Pilgrim despite the fact they were box office flops.

[@PurpleRizz]

That "Racer Twitter" is totally spot on 🤣😂

[@hypnotican]

"A bob so sharp it should be called a robert" 😂😂😂

[@GeekSHO]

That Dom Toretto bit was gold.

[@gridlore]

I love this movie simply because it is a cartoon. Over the top action, over-dramatic, silly, and a lot of fun. Not everything has to be Citizen Kane.

[@LuisSierra42]

I've always liked it ever since it came out

[@motor4X4kombat]

[@paakdisayaniyom]

In my opinion, this is his most underrated soundtrack (when people thinking of Giacchino best soundtrack, it would be 2009-2016 Star Trek movies or Pixar's movies or The Batman but in my opinion this is one of his best if not the best)
