He's a Demon on Wheels

So here's the new Speed Racer movie's first trailer. Warning: It's in the insipid Quicktime HD format, which takes more processing power than a Los Alamos supercomputer to do its job. Aka, if you try to run the largest file, it's going to crash.

Doesn't matter if you have a 1920+1200 display. It's not going to fit properly, or work, half the time.

God I hate Quicktime.

On a less whiny note, the trailer actually lowers my expectations for the movie. It seems like they spent all that money on creating Wipeout: The Movie. I'm referring to the PSX game series with anti-grav racers and somewhat annoying techno music. Only about ten thousand times flashier and brighter than Wipeout. Which is saying something.

Eh. It might be like a 3D movie, in that it takes a few minutes for the eyes to adjust in the theatre and then it feels silky smooth and natural. One thing's for sure: see this one in DLP, or don't see it at all.
