why?

so they've decided to go ahead and make a live action movie from possible THE gayest cartoon of all time... Speed Racer coming soon to a theater near you!

if you watch the trailer, it looks like the pile of shit that was Batman & Robin... all neon colours, unintentional camp, and bad acting.

my question is: how did such seemingly legit actors (emile hirsch, christina ricci, susan sarandon) get roped into such a disaster??

i'm predicting this thing is gonna tank big time... but at least they got the phallic car right!
