Today, Jay (@TheJayOfSpade on Twitter) and FutureFriend (@FutureFriendLP on Twitter) rejoin the cast to discuss the oft-belied but fondly remembered Speed Racer movie from 2008! While the Wachowskis may have produced a flop that failed to impress in its time, more recently articles and discussions have popped up in defense of this movie, saying it was ahead of its time and worth a re-examine. And with no one asking for it, we decided to include our own opinions on the topic as well, with three pairs of fresh eyes diving into the anime and the movie! Does it hold up to modern standards? Does it have to? Did we get the weak shit off our track? Find out in a mile-a-minute episode of Cocoa?Disaster!
