The trailer for the Wachowski Brothers’ take on Speed Racer has dropped. My reaction? Um… I know I’m a fussy and sensitive gal– really, I’ve the tendencies of a grandmother– but is this too “too” or what? Check out the blaring colors, nonstop music, and overall frenetic wonkiness.
Or if you fear your head exploding from sense stimuli–and you’re not wrong to as I honestly think a wee bit of brain matter dropped from my nose during viewing–look through some photos that USA Today has up.

I finally saw this one when I went to see the Golden Compass. I was disappointed that they didn’t play the song (Go Speed Racer!) What’s up with Emile Hirsch being everywhere all of a sudden? Maybe this one will shake my association of him with “The Girl Next Door.” Anyway, it does look a little overly-kinetic. That kind of sensory overload is why I couldn’t stand Moulin Rouge. However, the inimitable Christina Ricci will get me into the theater seat every time.
