Speed Racer Review Part 1

Here its is! My triumphant return! I hope you like bright lights and flashy colors because there's plenty of both in this cinematic turd of a movie. It's really sad tho, being that I loved the show when I was a kid. I was really looking forward to this.... but as fate would have it, I haven't felt THIS let down since Casino Royale! But that's a different story all together....

Anyway, sit back, relax, and FOR THE LOVE OF GOD KEEP YOUR LIGHTS ON and enjoy while I rip Speed Racer a new track tunnel.

Hey dan I think the movie that dethrones this movie for excessive flashbacks would be the GI joe movie, which I like inspite off.

[DanSheaMovieReviews]

@BrontoSmilodon1 GI Joe didn't have so many tho, the flashbacks were just much longer and more drawn out. On that note, I will admit I kinda wanna see the second one. It looks better in every way and it seems they finally got Cobra Commander right. That was my biggest gripe with the first one. Well, that and the fact that the USA had a British President lol. I like Jonathan Pryce and all, but that was just a stupid idea tbh

why do hollywood directors get 60's shows and turn them into movies?

[Joecbg100]

@DanSheaMovieReviews Exactly. :)

[DanSheaMovieReviews]

@Joecbg100 That's not what I meant when I said "true sequel." I personally loved Predator 2. When I said true sequel, I meant that Predators was worthy enough in my book to be called "Predator 3" and not some lame knock off. And another shock? Topher Grace stole the show. He did a great job I thought. Kinda makes you wonder about Spiderman 3... hmm

Also I can't wait for Wright's take on Ant Man :) What a great fit

[Joecbg100]

@DanSheaMovieReviews One of the reasons I think he should be Henry Pym in Edgar Wright's Ant Man film. Hey, don't discredit Predator 2, Danny Glover, Gary Busey, and Bill Paxton, not to mention Adam Baldwin.

@Joecbg100 NOT an Army of Darkness fan??? FOR SHAME!!!!

Ya know, I was quite shocked when it came to Predators. I coulda sworn they were gonna fuck it up with crappy overdone cgi and make it PG13 and whatnot. But to my surprise, they kept to the series' roots and made a worthy "true" sequel complete with great practical effects work and heavy gore and action. One of the bigger surprises of the last couple years imo. Also, who knew Adrian Brody could play a hardened badass so well?

[Joecbg100]

@DanSheaMovieReviews It's okay, same hard time for me too.

[Joecbg100]

@DanSheaMovieReviews Rough time for my family too, rough Holidays also for some of my friends. Sorry to hear about that for you, Dan. I can wait. Nice Ash figure, not really a big fan of Army of Darkness. But I'm kinda busy with the AVP movies, and the great Predators.

[DanSheaMovieReviews]

@Joecbg100 Oh hey, been a while :) Sorry I've been gone for so long btw. Its been a rough time for my family and I the last few months and, well I just needed to tend to more important tings so to speak. I WILL be back soon tho, just bear with me.

Now with that out of the way, to answer your question, no. That is not a Predator. Its an "Evil Ash" figure from Army of Darkness that I picked up at Comic Con one year. Love that movie! Notice "normal" Ash on the opposite side as well.
