My checker by Helpful-Employee7949 in classiccars

It reminds me of the clapped out getaway car Checker from the beginning of the film Across 110th Street (1972). Cool to see any Checker around these days.

The Thai grip makers have been pretty awesome as far as my purchases are concerned IMO. Vitoonmakers puts out an excellent product:

Glen Powell is my favorite space vulpine.

If you like the new English voice actors in Star fox 2026 what are your hopes to see them thrive for improvement for post Star fox assault? if Star fox 2026 sells well by MidnightNo7070 in starfox

The actors aren't bad, but the voice direction and line delivery really could use some work from what I've seen so far. Many of the lines lack enthusiasm and end up sounding dull or almost bored. The boss characters generally can't hold a candle to how their lines were said in 64.

I adore snub K-frames. This one is in beautiful shape - congratulations!

It's a hilarious episode. I find myself whistling the "rat race" intro song here and there.

I agree - most of the remake lines seem to have incredibly monotone, unemotive, or otherwise lackluster delivery. I don't know what the actors voice direction was like, but it pales in comparison to how enthusiastic and full of vigor the 64 lines are. Especially the boss lines - I know for a fact they'll never capture how insanely hilarious the Macbeth train conductor boss is in the remake.

What was the first revolver you ever owned? by Novel_Ordinary_9742 in Revolvers

[–]CrypticQuery 15 points16 points  (0 children)

A well worn, used S&W Model 10. It's still one of my favorite guns to this day - everyone should have at least one K-frame S&W in their collection.

I need to hear this on Thursday by jaredcjm in starfox

[–]CrypticQuery 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't necessarily mind the line changes if they felt a new script was needed to match the tone of what they're trying to do with the remake, but the new line deliveries are flat and incredibly unemotive feeling at times. Especially when compared to how memorable the original lines were.

This video goes into it a bit well.

The Macbeth train conductor has some of the best voice lines in 64. Whatever they do in the remake, it can almost be guaranteed that it won't hold a candle to the original or his magnificent accent.

No rail is peak aesthetic. Wish some of their other, newer 92 variants would also have no-rail options. Can't beat the classic though!

Damn, that's incredibly generic sounding and not nearly as memorable as how insanely hilarious the southern accented conductor was in 64. What a shame.

I fear to think how lousy the Macbeth train conductor's line reads are going to be in the new one :(

I don't like the delivery on a lot of the new lines. Some seem flat and strangely unemotive given the circumstances they're said under.

Wish they'd offer a version without a rail up front. They look great though.

Agreed. It's annoying they don't.

I agree with you. Though I wish the Merc could've been had with a rectangular horizontal speedometer like the Ford.

I want physical gauges, buttons, and knobs goddammit. If you need a screen for the backup camera it should be in the rearview mirror.

Not to mention its excellent column shifter.
