Speed Racer cost around $100 million to make and it only pulled in around $20.2 million this weekend. Cameron and Ashton's douche fest "What Happens In Vegas" only made around $200,000 less. I can't believe people are spending their hard-earned money to see those two tampons together in a movie. Those bitches would have to pay me and throw in a jumbo popcorn and some Red Vines. You know they don't sell Red Vines at movie theaters in Manhattan? Tragic.

I feel like watching Speed Racer will bring back acid flashbacks that I don't need in my life right now. Just watching the preview made me see little green elves and pink clouds.

Here's the Top 10 weekend box office:

1. Iron Man - $50.5 million
2. Speed Racer - $20.2 million
3. What Happens In Vegas - $20 million
4. Made Of Honor - $7.6 million
5. Baby Mama - $5.8 million
6. Forgetting Sarah Marshall - $3.8 million
7. Harold and Kumar... - $3.2 million
8. The Forbidden Kingdom - $1.9 million
9. Nim's Island - $1.3 million
10. Redbelt - $1.4 million

Fuck all these movies. I'm going to rent Alvin and the Chipmunks instead. That shit is best served with a fully loaded bong and a plate of Velveeta nachos.

Iron Man was fucking AWSOME!

I want to actually see it again.

I won't go see Speed Racer, I think it may send me into seizures or a severe acid flashback.

Huge cost! Is it wrong for a woman like her to have sugar daddy?? you know it is an absolutely extramarital relationship, but more and more services come out on Internet focusing on this kind of relationship..like [bullshit].. what will the world be??

bo_tatoe, It's not just you. They're all lame. I have NO desire to drop 8 bucks on any of them. Not worth it.

Although Speed Racer might be fun with a hit of acid. Actually, most ANY movie would be fun with a hit of acid, except "Eraserhead". I speak from experience.

bo_tatoe's picture

Help me out here:

- am i getting old?

- or are this flicks so lame i don't even crave watching a piratemurdercopy of these which i could get within the hour over the internet for free?

Is this the filmindustries ingenious diabolical plan to stop piratemurdercopies? Did they scientifically research what kinda films piratemurdercopy viewers fancy and henceforth produce the exact opposite of films?

Whenever I think of Speed Racer I think of this comment from jumptheshark.com:

"The other thing is there were too many damn people in the car: Trixie, the chimp, and that other little man-boy mutation. Very distracting while you're trying to drive."

Always cracks me up!

Agreed! I did really enjoy the movie but they really needed less of that kid and more of say, Trixie. The target audience isn't/shouldn't have been young kids. I saw a matinee and it still mostly teens and adults.

I don't understand how people did not enjoy speed racer. My 4 yr old son could not stop smiling, my husband was excited like a child, and I was at the end of my seat for every race. Everyone in my theater loved it. It was fun, the critics that gave it a bad review are obviously old and don't have a sense of what is fun for kids.
I loved it, I loved Iron man. I read reviews that Speed Racer did not have enough heart, I think it had a TON of heart, it held a lot of messages about family, media, corporations, all great messages for those smart enough to "get" it. But what did the critics want? Its not Gone with the Wind here, its a kid movie, what were they looking for?
This movie was fantastic.

gucci-long time no "see" :)
I don't say this often but IronMan is fucking awesome! I rarely make the effort to physically view a movie in the theater but not only did I do that but was so thoroughly entertained I can't wait for the sequal.
And ditto Stockbroker, i'd love to beat on the douches that pay good money to Asston and zitface...speed racer looks awful-thank god my son forgot it came out the other day-I would have a seisure if forced to see it.
