The speed racer movie is going to be more than another cartoon turned into a bleh movie. The biggest "things" about the movie will be the Matrix style action sequences (with the people who invented Matrix style action sequences) and some 2-D "all in focus" camera.

This movie was filmed with some super secret digital camera that comes with security guards. Most of the information known about the camera comes from actors blabbing off post filming. Some kinda film and digital focus tricks cause the entire frame to be in focus. With the seamless CG, the film is very .... interesting to see.
