646f9e108c An animated TV series centered on the child of the legendary Speed Racer – a young talent named after his father who enrolls in an academy for the fastest kids on Earth. I just don't get why Lionsgate made such a horrible animated show as this: Most of the criticism made by the modern viewers about the original "Speed Racer" cartoon is concerned about the quality of the animation…But seriously, compared with the poor CGI and the incredibly unappealing character designs(Everyone has exactly the same face!) of this pathetic series, the original "Speed Racer" seems like something from the Golden Age of animation. <br/><br/>But despite being slow, ugly and choppy, the animation quality is not the only bad thing about this show:The plot is idiotic and clichéd ( A "Racing Academy"? Seriously? As if the "Duel Academy" in Yugioh GX wasn't idiotic enough) All the new characters are boring and lame, and none, absolutely none of them was likable, or at least interesting. The voice acting is bland and forgettable, at best. <br/><br/>This cartoon…is horrible beyond belief. I tried to watch a couple of episodes, but I couldn't stand it. The amount of annoying clichés, stupid characters, the atrocious animation and ugly designs are the elements that made this pathetic series an unbearable spectacle that is better to forget.<br/><br/>"Speed Racer: The Next Generation" is so bad that makes "The New Adventures of Speed Racer" animated by Fred Wolf look good in comparison.<br/><br/>0/10 I know one reviewer says that the villains are lamer and less violence. But I happen to like it that way. As the villains use more high tech and brains than the original villains that used more brawns and more violence.<br/><br/>Speed Jr is a great driver but is not at all a martial artist like his father of the same name, was though he has used it a couple of times. Rex Jr, Speed's older brother and another race, and the bad boy in the school the two are attending for racing. Have a love-hate relationship but grown to love and depend on one another.<br/><br/>Speed Sr is now a lot of cautious and a lot more calmer. As he is undercover like his older brother Rex is. Rex Jr if you have caught on, is named after his Sr's older secret spy brother. Speed Sr and Speed Jr seem to have a lot more in common than Rex Jr does. But Sr loves both of his sons the same.<br/><br/>Sprittle is now a headmaster and more calmer and more wiser than his child like attitude in the original. Plus he is much more authoritative when running the school and his Speed and Rex's younger brother. He won't bend the rules for his nephews and for that matter, his older brother's sake. But gives them advice and help from time to time.<br/><br/>It is a much more tamer version of the show with the kids. Original is the original but still, this is much more tamer.
