This isn't a huge surprise, given that it's becoming standard practise for big effects-heavy movies, but First Showing is reporting that they've had confirmation that the Wachowskis' Speed Racer will be released on IMAX screens later this year.
Given the break-neck, ultra-colourful trailer we've seen for this story of a young racing driver (Emile Hirsch) who wants to become the best in the world, this could be either the most exciting experience you could ever hope to have in front of the big-big screen or it could reduce your eyes to mush and send them dribbling down your face as they give up all pretence at keeping up with the images assaulting them. But wouldn't you like to try?
