Speed Racer is the anime movie by which all anime movies are judged.

None approach its throne.

actually I just realized how unclear it'd be to just say "speed racer"

The funny thing is, the movie was critically panned, and the usual trend with these adaptation movies is that they suck, so I think most people earnestly believed it was bad. I haven't seen it for myself, but a bunch of friends of mine have seen it, and they all liked it!

The live action Speed Racer? It's like an acid trip about cars, it's fabulous.

I saw it in theaters

it's a live-action Redline, except that the other racers are significantly less interesting

Would any of you guys wanna do some Gundum Friday night ? I'm going out to a Christmas party Saturday so just in case I want to show early this week. If I can make it back early we can do some extra + host club if Beefs done showing what he is gonna show.

I'll let them have Teen Titans because that did premiere episodes in Toonami, but Powerpuff Girls did not. Neither did The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest for that matter.

Just popping into say that Speed Racer is not just the finest Anime adaptation, its probably one of the best films of its decade and in editing is an actual not-joking achievement in cinema language.

But Jonny Quest was the longest running show that had like 5 episodes.

Tokyo father's is a fantastic Satoshi Kon film. The only real problem with showing it would be that it's sub only. The good news though, is it also works as a new years movie as well!

One of my low-key favorite things about the Zeppeli episode is how Tompetti is leaning back all gangsta when he's reading Zeppeli's future

Pickle: Inspected.



Who else loves watching the first half of this Boondocks episode twice in a row?
I know I sure don't.

BTW I haven't had TV in a couple years and coming home for the holidays to discover that Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell has a third season makes me infinitely happy.
Finding out Norm MacDonald voices the pigeon in Mike Tyson Mysteries makes me a bit sad, though.

Also seeing Downside Dregs put the Akira motorcycle homage inside the promo feels really cheap and tacky.
