Tag Archive for ‘Speed Racer Movie’ at Fash-Eccentric!

After all my Speed Racer hype, I finally caught Speed Racer last night - and it was a mind-blowing experience! I don’t understand how it got such conflicting reviews but I guess this isn’t a movie for everyone. This is prolly the coolest ‘shot-on-green-screen‘ film since Sin City or 300.

Trixie has a distinct sense of style. She’s always seen in matching hair clips (see above, aren’t they cute!), lipstick and top or even shoes! Let’s do pink entirely, or red - depending on your mood. I was so smittened by her character that oozes with everything cute and quirky. And, don’t we love that bob?

Watch this music video of “Go Speed Racer Go” by Ali Dee and the Deekompressors.

I’m so hooked!

Fan Girl alert! This summer is going to be crazzzyy. As you know, my first love is filmmaking/movies (that’s why I’m in the business) then it’s design (fashion, product, you name it). I’m a film buff, but not a snob - I dig summer blockbusters, especially comic adaptations, cartoon remakes whatever. I love the occasional obscure, indie films - but I can’t be watching depressing, f-up films all the time no?

Right now, I’m counting down the days to Wachowski Brothers’s SPEED RACER! OMG, the screenshots are amazing, and the trailer is freakin’ mind-blowing! I’ve been humming the song all week. I mean these guys revolutionize The Matrix in 1999. I tell you, the Wachowski Bros are back in business. I’m sooo lovin’ the styling for the film and the costumes are crazy - check it out:

Red gloves, anyone? I love Trixie’s (played by Christina Ricci) hair. It’s uber-chic. And the scarlett lips.

In the candy-coloured world, we love sparkly bits, hoop earrings and hot short-shorts.

1… 2… GO!

Ooh, don’t you dig Speed’s (played by Emile Hirsch) retro white racing jacket? Trixie’s hot pink tank top is so cute! Also, check out her interesting eye-makeup (although I’m not a beauty expert - I think it’s awesome).
