its really a shame that speed racer was a flop. i finally ended up watching it on dvd this week, and i was quite impressed with it. i thought it was really good. but thats just me. and who the frak am i?

totally agree with you herbyneo
Just saw it on a plane and wished I'd went to the theaters to see it. It was actually really well done.

Yeah, that's about where this movie belongs, on a plane.
I'm sure people were kissing the ground once they landed.
