...what really makes the film are Maher’s interviews with the religious elite, including Dr. Jeremiah Cummings, a bling-blinging sugar daddy of a preacher who defends his wealth by citing Jesus’ possession of “fine linen.” Another notable subject is Ken Ham, president of the creationist group Answers In Genesis, whose bold statement, “If you believe in evolution, you’d have to believe women came from ape-women,” clearly puts an end to evolutionary theory.

Effects supervisor John Gaeta itemizes some of them in the forthcoming book The Art of Speed Racer: "Faux lensing," "Photo Anime film format," "designer shape de-focus," "infinite depth of field," "bling and super-bling flare enhancements" and "candy-inspired Techno Color." You can tell that everyone had liberated fun making the film; it feels like the group effort of Mensa kids let loose in a paint store...
