understands better even than a lot of animation that the most characteristic and most effective way for animation to manage movement and make it coherent isn't montage but compositing. it's composed of layers, not constructed with physical spaces. material and technical innovations in animation production are primarily ways to rationalise the animetic image across intervals between multiple image-planes under conditions of movement, from the animation stand to whatever software the wachowskis and company used on this. layers slide over each other. characters (or better yet cars) don't move in static worlds, but it's more like worlds move around dynamic characters. that's anime baby

compare the stylistic flourish in the rally at the end here to what yuasa does in the rally between smile and peco in ping pong's last episode if you want to see how a real artist operates. and please, get zendaya out of my cinema. she's got the charisma of a bratz doll and the range of a 10 year old jock forced into a school play. not a lick of acting talent
