Will 'Speed Racer' be 'Rain'ed out?

Oh... my.

Nothing less should be expected from the most influential person of the year.

oh hell no.

I like Rain. I'm not expecting too much from him in this movie though because foreign actors/actresses in US movies tend to not get very much screen time. It'll be good to see him in the movie though.

Stephen Colbert will not be pleased.

it's not really just korean girls - nor is it just pre-pubescent girls - anymore...i'll bet stephen colbert is trying to get a part in same movie :)

Can someone please tell me what colbert has to do with this?

He did a skit making fun of Rain.

Steven Colbert Oppa!!!!!! AAAAIIIEEEEeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!1!!one!!!eleven1111111111

There was a Time online poll for most influential person or something and Rain was first, Colbert was second. And of course Colbert is milking it for all it is worth.

I don't know about you all, but every time I see the words "Speed Racer" and "the Wachowski brothers" together I laugh and laugh and laugh. Adding in Rain just makes for more laughs. I hope he's Racer X. And Colbert is Chim Chim.

Speed Racer will be a great test for the directors. Essentially, they have to turn "campy" into "cool." Let's see if it can be done. It will either be really cool or really lame.

Rain is the reason I will go see this movie, I hear he has a important role that "holds the key to the movie;
Rain will manage the flow of the movie between the two main parts."

Yes, ppl those who don't like Rain..too bad, he's a hella actor. It is quite coureous that mostly its guys that don't like Rain. wonder why? Well I'll try not to scream in the theater whenever Rain appears. lol

i think that raiN will have a biG break in US market...and who know?? he will do a good job in doing this film...
besides he is known as the asian superstar so it's easy to be popular overseas...by his songs that are very great...who knows right??? and please is that all wat u got asian movies are way cooler thatn western movies....western movies are not that realistic when it comes to horror film....unlike asian horror films,it's very realistic and when i watch some western movies,all i do is YAWN....gimme a break and besides,you don't know rain that much.......DUH??!?!?!?!?

HOLLYWOOD has always put a ceiling in the industry to stop ASIAN MALE ACTORS from rising to the top. We are always portrayed as geek, kung-fu fighters or funny guys with accents.

Well, that's quickly changing -- as more and more ASIAN MEN are stepping-up and becoming Alpha Males (Sexy, Confident, Talented, Rich, Educated, Fit, Smooth)

Because Asian comprise 50% of the world's population, America has been afraid and reluctant to see ASIAN MEN appear sexy, attractive and dominant on-screen.

They're fearful that once we truly recognize our value in America, we would start taking over their women, start forming more companies, start penetrating the movie and music industry -- and their lack of talent would show.

GO ASIAN-AMERICAN MEN GO !!!
Let no one stop you from reaching your dreams.

SHow the world that we are no longer the stereotyped image they have seen for decades.

The MODERN ASIAN MAN in AMERICA is sexy, rich, attractive, seductive, talented, intelligent and highy-confident and competitive.

JOIN THAT GROUP that's quickly growing strong.

IT'S GONNA RAIN !!!

one word - WOW! .. can't wait til the production start. hope he'll do great and more success to RAIN .. For sure, his fans will watch it. hopefully, make it a great grossing film.
