Sarah is 8 years younger than me and she doesn't quite recall it. I think she said she does but she always turned the channel LOL. @Katelyn: Thanks for the comment. Sarandon's tears fall over the place in this one. I found her character annoying and not endearing. I did like her in Dead Man Walking. A better suggestion might have been Dee Wallace. @Patrick: I loved your stream of consciousness images there dude!

It seems different and interesting, but a tad bit "kiddie" so we weren't sure if we'd like it. From your review though, it sounds like it'd be intersting to watch! Susan Sarandon only does well at the "cougar" type characters I think...oh, but she was good in Little Women...But I really started liking her as an actress in Alfie (: She seemed real in Alfie.

Big Speed Racer fan as a kid. I haven't really been paying attention to anything about this movie and I thought that picture of Cristina Ricci was Katie Holmes at first. I can't believe how much they look alike! I laughed when you said you wondered if kids on drugs were the target audience. Not that that's funny, because it's not, but I always thought that of the movie Tron. Maybe this is the Tron of the next generation?
