Speedracer Pancakes

These newly released stills from the upcoming ‘Speed Racer’ movie do a lot to lend credence to star Susan Sarandon’s claim back in August that the Wachowskis’ entirely unique vision for the film required the development of new, unprecedented technology and visual effects trickery. Her summary of the film’s thematic elements: “It’s all about cheating and betting and how things are fixed and everything else, but it’s also about family values and pancakes are love.”

At the time it was just a whimsical sound bite, but these new images make me head-splittingly happy, enough to buy all the way in to the pancake love. (thx joseph)

Update: Greg over at greg.org poses the question: Why does the media refuse to grant Lana (nรฉ Larry) Wachowski her right to the feminine pronoun?
