    Default SPEED RACER THE MOVIE!!

    Emile Hirsch Is The "Speed Racer"
    By Garth FranklinWednesday March 21st 2007 12:42am
    Emile Hirsch ("Alpha dog," "The Girl Next Door") is in talks to star in "Speed Racer," the live-action version of the anime cartoon being directed by Larry and Andy Wachowski says The Hollywood Reporter.

    Based on the classic 1960s series created by anime pioneer Tatsuo Yoshida that was retooled for North American audiences, "Speed Racer" follows the adventures of young race car driver Speed (Hirsch) in his quest for glory in his thundering gadget-laden vehicle, Mach 5.

    The movie will feature other characters from the show, including Speed's family and his mysterious arch-rival, Racer X who has a mysterious connection to Speed.

    Joel Silver is producing the film, which the Wachowskis are writing as well as directing. The plan is for the Wachowskis to shoot in Germany this summer for a May 9th 2008 release worldwide.

    The Speed Racer Theme Song
    Here he comes
    Here comes Speed Racer
    He's a demon on wheels
    He's a demon and he's gonna be chasin' after someone
    He's gainin' on you
    So you better look alive
    He's busy revvin' up the powerful Mach 5
    And when the odds are against him
    And there's dangerous work to do
    You bet your life Speed Racer will see it through
    Go Speed Racer
    Go Speed Racer
    Go Speed Racer, GO!
    He's off and flyin'
    As he guns the car around the track
    He's jammin' down the pedal
    Like he's never comin' back
    Adventure's waitin' just ahead
    Go Speed Racer
    Go Speed Racer
    Go Speed Racer, GO!


    ...lol...

    That dude doesn't look queer enough to be speed racer... In fact I'm pretty sure speed racer was either a woman dressed as a man or a really feminine man who dressed like a woman in the offseason... Either way he def wore makeup.
