He was virtually unrecognizable until he spoke and then played the role so well. You knew he was going to be bad but he brought more to the character then just "I'm EVIL!"... and looked really bad-ass. <BR/><BR/>There's a bit near the end when Pepper is downloading info from Tony's office computer. She sees a weapons bill/file/document with a customer name of "Lebowski." <BR/><BR/>Heh.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14165988845401770445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30422841.post-89544373000847794422008-05-15T09:53:00.000-06:002008-05-15T09:53:00.000-06:00It's hard not to pre-judge Speed Racer negatively ...It's hard not to pre-judge Speed Racer negatively because of a)Wachowskis and b)previews of the movie and c) my dislike of pure CGIl. I'm not expecting much more than pure style with no substance.<BR/><BR/>But seriously, they make a Speed Racer movie and fail to make an ACTUAL PHYSICAL Mach 5? Personally I don't want to see a CGI speed racer, I want to see some great real stunts and cars racing and crashing. I'll rent it on DVD... but otherwise I'm honestly kind of happy it's flopping.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14165988845401770445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30422841.post-59136239131217800602008-05-15T05:43:00.000-06:002008-05-15T05:43:00.000-06:00LMAO at "suspicious that the Wachowski Bros. were ...LMAO at "suspicious that the Wachowski Bros. were on Cartoon Acid when they made it"...<BR/><BR/>Oh god, WHEW. That was funny, Mike. Well played. And so accurate.<BR/><BR/>Also accurate, though Facebook (rightfully) says that our taste in movies is hardly compatible, I will agree with you on Iron Man. I'm not a comic book movie fan but I loved this one. And most of the success has to rest on Robert Downey Jr's shoulders. That man is amazing. Christian Bale plays a hot intense and I'll give that I like his Batman best after Michael Keaton (I'm such a Burton purist) but Robert Downey Jr's Tony Stark is what movies are made for! He is to Iron Man what Johnny Depp is to the Pirates franchise.<BR/><BR/>Also, I thought the suit was cool. And Gwyneth Paltrow offended me much less than I expected.Corinne Simpsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07345531819211476370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30422841.post-78651495345446508352008-05-14T21:14:00.000-06:002008-05-14T21:14:00.000-06:00Carl, I'll check out Speed Racer on DVD, as the pr...Carl, I'll check out Speed Racer on DVD, as the previews make me suspicious that the Wachowski Bros. were on Cartoon Acid when they made it. I can't get out to the theater much with 2 small children, so I have to be highly selective about my theater attendance.Mike Perschonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09335943113292616702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30422841.post-19905596160145905822008-05-14T18:07:00.000-06:002008-05-14T18:07:00.000-06:00True story!

On a side note check out Speed Racer.
