Speed Racer looks pretty good so I think they'll do this one right.

I thought Patrick was being sarcastic....


But Leonardo DiCaprio as Kaneda? Neo Manhattan instead of Neo Tokyo?

The only thing I'm digging about this is Joseph Gorden Levitt as Tetsuo and the director.

By the way some custom bike maker in Japan actually built a street legal version of Kaneda's bike. It looks KICKASS!

The American film industry is gonna screw up Akira just like they are screwing up Dragonball.
