speed racer

i just went to megaria to watch speed racer with dita. it's such a blessing to have megaria renovated. i use to hate going there cause it's all dirty and gross. now it's as good as any theaters. anyway back to speed racer, i use to like the cartoon. well not really like it, but some episodes were pretty cool. and i like the theme song as well. for some of you who are F.R.I.E.N.D.S fans, you might remember in one episode, ross, chandler and joey sang the theme song and i think they have a poster of speed racer in one of the apartments but i don't remember who's. i thought the movie was going to be one blasted summer movie with all the effects and plot lines, but no. well it wasn't that bad. but the story was just weird and the effects aren't actually that good. feels like you're watvhing a semi cartoon movie but the real life and cartoons are mixed ultra badly and it's missing an ingredients. here are the links to watch the cartoon episode
