Thanks for the information, frankie _fan. They're great, and I hope the movie does justice for the anime itself.

'You heard it here, first!'

I'm just glad to help. I'm looking forward to this movie more than ever now.

My brother is obsessed, and I think we have every episode on DVD... Let's see if the movie is any good.

Nothing news-worthy, but here's the car as it will appear in the film:

Looks nice, doesn't it?

Ah... this is a good start. Hopefully, this *wonderful* Mach 5 is just the beginning of what's to come... I honestly can't wait.

According to IMDB.com, post-production has begun.

Hey, Sparky. I know that you're going to Comic Con at San Diego, and I just couldn't help noticing that on Friday 27th July, the Warner Bros panel will be showing a sneak peek of Speed Racer!!

If you're going to that panel, PLEASE let me know what's it like! I would love to see it!!!!

Here's proof:

Okay, according to IMDB, it's back to filming. I think someone made a mistake on IMDB and didn't know that it's still being filmed in the Berlin area of town. Either that or the directors (Larry and Andy) are switching between filming and post-production

Ahh... as much as I love IMDB, there are times when (like Wikipedia) I take its information with a grain of salt.

Apparently, there's a new filming technique being used for Speed Racer. Collider chatted to Susan Sarandon (Mum Racer) about this use:

"They're using some high def thing that comes with guards and it's beyond anything I've ever... I saw 10 minutes before I left, they did a special thing for me cause they're just wrapping and having a party tonight, they were still working after I left. They're doing something where they're layering film so that the front and the back are in focus like a cartoon and they're also doing two dimensional and three dimensional stuff and mixing and everything is very, very saturated with some new kind of film, so they actually have to treat the actors in some way so we can hold our own with the background. So it's every color that wasn't in The Matrix is seriously in this film."
