Wachowski Brothers and the Speed Racer Movie
Steven Weintraub writes "Susan Sarandon talks about the Wachowski Brothers Speed Racer movie and confirms the revolutionary way the brothers are making the film — the entire frame will be in focus like a cartoon."
I for one welcome our new always-in-focus overlords.
Now when the theater projector is slightly out of focus you won't be able to see ANYTHING.
So if I take a photo at, say, f/10 instead of my usual f/1.8, resulting in greater depth-of-field, this is revolutionary?
How can I patent this?
Village idiot in some extremely smart villages.
Now we can have Persephone in focus ALL the time.
you must be new here
As far as I know, they are not literally "brothers" anymore..
But perhaps they couldn't. Perhaps what you perceive as a choice between 10 better ways on their part is a choice, but at the same time the choice they made is the only choice they could have made. You choose to think otherwise, but do you really have a choice in thinking you have a choice, did you choose to have a choice, or did you decide anyway?
The Wachowski brothers made the choices they made because they were the only choices they could have made. (Continued ad-nausium until the exciting car chase in the middle of the film. To be continued after car chase.)
You are not alone. This is not normal. None of this is normal.
Oh come on, that scantily-clad, elaborate dance scene in the cave was genius and essential to the storyline.

Assuming for a moment I don't like V for Vendetta (a fair assumption, I found it to be awful) they've made three movies since The Matrix. I'm sort of shocked I had to spell that out for you, since you had the list right in your post, but I'm happy to provide such services to the cognitively challenged.
Also, I am smoking Camel Turkish Silver. Don't see the relevance, but I'm happy to answer you.
Slashdot - where whining about luck is the new way to make the world you want.
A film where the script, the acting and now the image are all flat and two-dimensional !
Woo-hoo! Next they'll invent super-xylem vision, so they can all be wooden as well!

When I first saw that scene, my first thought was, "They're doing it in Yoda's bed!"
Redundancy is good And also good.

Freewill is a myth. I didn't choose to have this headache.

which is totally what she said
Filippo Brunelleschi, is that you on /.?
In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is usually crucified.
Racer X was actually his brother the whole time!
I prefer to have the subject circled with a big red arrow pointing at it.
It is by the juice of the coffee bean that thoughts acquire speed, the teeth acquire stains. The stains become a warning
Incidentally, anyone else always read "freewill" in the voice of Geddy Lee?
No, but thanks to your sig, I now read other sigs in the voice of "Chef."
"I'm just here to regulate funkiness."
I'm still disappointed that the rumor I once heard, that the Wachowski brothers would direct Arnold Schwarzenegger in "Conan the King", did not come to pass.
I mean, I wish I could get a copy from a parallel universe where that movie was made....
