New Speed Racer Video Revitalizes Interest

This year could very well go down in history as the geekiest year in movies, thanks to a bounty of films created just for the geek in all of us. At the top of that list is Speed Racer, and a new video has revitalized interest in a movie that is going to be a love or hate movie.
The source of this video forces me to quote Empire, who said of the source it was the “strangest news sources we've ever credited.” Not surprising, considering that the video is found at Esurance.com – an automobile insurance company.

Just what the link between the two is, is for the moment, unclear, but if you head along to the website here, you can enter the sweepstakes. Assuming you have to live in America to qualify, for the rest of us, we can head along to the ‘Video’ tab and check in with the “Exclusive Speed Racer Clip.”

It has some great new footage that has once again emphasized two points; a) I’m going to love this movie and b) it’s going to be mind-bendingly awesome!

Speed hits theatre’s beginning 7th of May in Egypt, 9th of May in the USA and 12th of June in Australia. The movie stars Emile Hersch, Christina Ricci, Matthew Fox and is directed by Andy and Larry Wachowski.
