A truly underappreciated film when it was released. I think it's beginning to get some respect over time by a new audience who gets it completely. I always enjoyed it.
One of the best things about this movie is the CGI and the transitions of every scene were amazing. You don't see a lotta movies do stuff like that very well nowadays
As a simracing fanatic, I find it amazing that they used rFactor in making the driving scenes. I just saw the sim while scrolling through the credits, made me wonder how it played its part in the movie.
There are five pedals within the cockpit…. There’s the two for acceleration and braking…. Then one is for the thrusters, one for the clutch and one for unlocking the back wheels for drifting….
I like how all the previs background cars have that almost uniform style of 60s-70s racer car look. Kinda wish the cars looked a bit more retro to match the anime
