As a child, the Mach 5 was the coolest car on the planet, and driving it was the next best thing to flying an X-Wing. An entire generation of kids watched transfixed as Speed Racer beat the bad guys time and again in the best possible way: on a race track with the fastest, sleekest car ever.
The Wachowski brothers, better know for the Matrix trilogy, are making a live action film out of this cartoon. Given the fond memories of this cartoon and the credentials of the writers, I have high expectations of this movie.
