SPEED RACER 2008 GAME MOVIE

Smokin' hot.Whether you love or hate the look of the Wachowski brothers latest film, Speed Racer, you have to admit that it's certainly got style. Did we mention the slash possibilities being high?ДЄnd here's a link to a dance-off between Rain and Steven Colbert. Alcohol poisoning is a distinct possibility.ДЇinally, for your viewing pleasure, Rain and Joon Park (who were in a band called g.o.d. You'll be completely hammered by Rule One alone. If they stuck to the original comic, there is no need for a rule two, or any additional rules. Any time Tony Stark takes a drink, take a drink.Дў. However if we were going to make a drinking game for Iron Man the rules would be considerably simpler:ДЎ. Tomorrow we go see Iron Man completely sober. We could probably add more rules, but ten seems like a good number. When Joon Park finally shows up (near the end) because you will need to cool yourself down. Any time random hot chicks in revealing dresses show up.ДЎ0. Any time a scene is absolutely rife with sexual undertones and/or you are thinking 'those two (or three or four) so need to get in bed together'Д©. The first appearance in a new scene of that stupid monkey.Д§. Anyone pushes a button or flicks a switch on their car's dashboard to launch some kind of offensive or defensive weapon, like the Mach 5's razor wheels, or Snake Oiler's oil-slick. The Mach 5 vaults over or around an obstacle or other car.ДҐ. You see speed lines, shoujo hearts, or ninja.Д¤. The slash potential was high there, oh yes.ДЄnyway these are the rules for the drinking game:ДЎ. The double gasps from our seats when he appeared were priceless. Momo and I would happily have traded a good half hour of story development scenes for five more minutes of screen time for Joon Park. Leather daddy Racer X for one, and Rain playing racer Taejo Togokan, who was his bitch in white leather with a dragon winding around it, and at the end Joon Park as Yakuza Racer, with white spiky anime hair and tattoos, shaving with a straight razor. The campiness totally worked, but what worked even better was the extreme hotness of some of the actors. Over all the show was campy, with a purple-shirted and rather fey villain, and a lot of really silly bad guys, and ridiculous car acrobatics, and visual effects that probably will be blamed for inducing seizures in some ten-year-old when it's released to DVD. Loops and ramps and jumps and absurd vertical drops and crazy spaghetti interweavings. And the races were conducted on fantastic scaled up Matchbox Car tracks the likes of which you could only fantasize about having enough track to construct when you were a kid. The Mach 5 was anime-perfect, and had the A-F buttons on the steering wheel and everything. Momo leaned over during the film to inquire about that thusly: 'What the hell is a race car doing with a trunk?' Momo says, 'fuck that fucking monkey.' But they stuck to the tropes from the anime, including Racer X/dead older brother angst, hand-wringing anxiety about fixed races and crooked drivers, and the idiot Spritle and his monkey sidekick stowing away in the trunk of the Mach 5 and showing up at a critical moment to save the day with a well-placed rock from a slingshot. I never cared for Chim Chim and Spritle much in the anime, and they kind of sucked here as well. Just like the anime, the live action version featured speed lines, and had Speed and Trixie and Sparky and Mom and Pops and Chim Chim and Spritle, and of course, Racer X. It was my first taste of anime, and you can see why it took me until Ghost in the Shell and Princess Mononoke and Cowboy Bebop to get back into it, if you know anything about the old Speed Racer cartoons. I mean, I grew up watching Speed Racer after school in the 70's. Anyway the taxi was to keep us from being road menaces. So we're not completely hammered here or anything, just pleasantly impaired.

Our flask held ten ounces, so that's five ounces each, distributed in the giant movie theatre sized cokes, or about three shots apiece. Let me just say here that she and I agree, pineapple rum goes excellently in coke. We took a taxi and a flask of Captain Morgan Parrot Bay Pineapple Rum, bought two large cokes, and made ourselves pineapple rum and cokes once they lowered the lights for the previews. Messypeaches and I went to see Speed Racer tonight. Unless they're Momo and Nezu, in which case they encourage each other. NezumikoWarning: Friends don't let friends drink and post.
