Brandon Sanderson, renowned author of the Cosmere universe, has sent shockwaves through the gaming world by declaring the 2008 Speed Racer movie as 'unironically a 10 out of 10'. During his podcast, Sanderson shared his thoughts on the greatest villains ever, but couldn't help but sing praises for the Wachowskis' animated-live action masterpiece. Despite a lukewarm initial reception and lower ratings on Rotten Tomatoes and IMDB, IGN's 2008 review praised Speed Racer as a 'masterpiece of its kind', full of exciting races, vibrant characters, and unstoppable fun. Sanderson attributes the film's poor box office performance to its over-the-top style and simplicity. Recently, Speed Racer has seen new life with a limited-edition 4K and Blu-ray steelbook release, and fans have been quick to support this nostalgic revival. The steelbook is already sold out, but the film can still be purchased in 4K for $24.99 on Amazon. Jacob Kienlen, IGN's Senior Audience Development Strategist and Writer, shares Sanderson's enthusiasm, urging gamers to check out this 'summer distraction', 'singular work of art', or simply 'sensory overload'.
