In 2008, the Wachowskis presented pure, uncut, psychedelic exuberance on screen for 2+ hours... and the world shrugged their stupid shoulders. But now, we're reclaiming the masterpiece that is 'Speed Racer' for its incredible cast (John Goodman, Susan Sarandon, Christina Ricci, Rain, and who could forget young Paulie Litt? Not us!), its eye-popping visuals (a neverending fall down an Alice in Wonderland rabbit hole), and the Wachowskis' form-breaking filmmaking that has us stoked for 'The Matrix Resurrections'!
Go, Speed Racer! Go, Speed Racer! Go, Speed Racer, goooooooooooo!
Throughout November, the NeverEnding Movie Marathon crew will answer that query with three of their favorites-- starting with the Nicolas Cage crashterpiece (or trashterpiece?), 'Con Air' (1997), then continuing with Bong Joon-ho's sleeper(car) hit, 'Snowpiercer' (2013), coming in third is Speed Racer, before we wrap things next week with 'Planes, Trains, and Automobiles' (1987).
The NeverEnding Movie Marathon is a weekly podcastic celebration of cinema. Dive deep into fan-favorite films (#NoStinkers!), thematically curated to enhance your movie viewing by hosts Matt Detisch, Alex Logan, and Michael Rocco.
