Speed Racer The Next Generation: The Beginning Trailer

Speed Racer The Next Generation: The Beginning builds on the adventures of the original series by focusing on Speed's orphaned son as he juggles school life at the Racing Academy while uncovering secrets behind his father's disappearance. The new chapter of Speed Racer utilizes a cutting-edge style of animation inspired by the original series, while incorporating topical storylines like the pursuit of a car built with a gasless engine. The movie features Peter Fernandez (as Headmaster Spritle) - the voice of Speed Racer in the classic TV series and the man responsible for the lyrics of original Speed Racer theme song. The DVD (out May 6th) includes an interactive racing game and the "Creating The Next Speed Racer" featurette.

Speed Racer The Next Generation: The Beginning sets up and launches the new animated half-hour TV series which airs Fridays at 7pm ET on Nicktoons Network; and also coincides with the Warner Bros. live-action feature film which hits theatres on May 9th.

Chuck Jones, Walt Disney, and all the other animation greats would be STRANGLING the people who made this fallacy against man if they were still around.

Philistines! You little shits don't know anything about good animation. go watch some good cartoons, the ones your terrible soccer moms wouldn't let you watch because they were 'too violent'. In fact, they're the reason this unrecognizable steamer even exists!

Lol, when I saw Speed, he reminded me of Luke Skywalker, particularly the hairstyle Speed has. This is just my point of view.

@Foxhack Oh I don't know, they put effort into it?

[Foxhack]

@porechatot Also, even NEW ADVENTURES OF SPEED RACER has better animation than this!

HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?!

[Foxhack]

@porechatot As a guy who grew up watching the 1960's version (in the 1980's) I say, shut up.

The original show had almost no animation to speak of but the races were pretty okay. How can a show from 2008 have WORSE ANIMATION THAN THE ORIGINAL? How?

[porechatot]

@Foxhack Um, The Original was released in the 1960's. And it is a decent cartoon so keep your stupid remarks to yourself ok?

I think watching this clip just gave me brain cancer.

I feel like this should be on the fake TV on GTA IV.

[christianbangs]

Cyber Formula is still the best ...!!

[JPPT1974]

I like Sprittle as an adult. He seems more mature and more level-headed.

[Foxhack]

Wait, this looks like a crappy cartoon from the 90's.

EIGHTEEN YEARS LATER, THEY STILL CAN'T GET IT RIGHT.
