The article didn’t make it clear whether the whole vacation was being spent in Vegas. I’d guess it wasn’t.

When David Foxx reached out to Jalopnik, he was on his 10th day of a 19-day vacation

The lights of the Strip with crowds, like a circus.  Maybe entice European market?

It should still be a night race, though. Vegas looks like shit in the daylight.

Fair enough, but it makes it a hard watch for a lot of folks.  But agree it would look a LOT cooler doing it at night, though cooler could also be an issue with getting heat into the tires and what not.

Y’know, you’re right, I don’t know what I was thinking. Let me make it up to you by sending you a surprise gift package from the good folks at ACME; it should arrive in a few days, and just ignore the ticking that you hear coming from the box :)

I’ll be damned, we actually won’t be able to see him this time.

I call journalistic incompetence here. There’s not even a mention to the effect of “the Acme Corporation was contacted for a statement, but gave no comment/did not respond before publication time”.  Shelving this movie has their fingerprints all over it, so as not to shed any possible negative light on their fine…

The quality of Arcane’s animation is far beyond anything else on Netflix, so it taking a long time is really unsurprising. Season 1 took closer to 6 years, I believe.

Tax write off

Great. So now we all have to try and not die a whole nother freakin’ year?! UGH

They really need to adjust the tax code so that in order to claim writeoffs on completed work, you have to release that work to the public domain.

So, no Blankman sequel?

It is not similar to those at all. This truck’s gasoline engine will not power the wheels in any way. It is a generator. 

Based on Ram’s description, it appears to be a plug-in series hybrid electric vehicle. The truck only receives propulsion from the electric motors, but has a range-extending gas engine onboard that powers a generator. The truck can determine how to use the generator’s power, depending on how much power it needs to…

Watch Mecum or Barrett-Jackson and you will see fat boomers paying stupid money for sixties-era “muscle cars”. I keep thinking I can have a REAL modern muscle car for half the price they are paying.

Great. I look forward to being forced to sit through presentations where the presenter simply reads the text on PowerPoint slides that they didn’t even create. Also, I guarantee that if anyone I work with attempts to attend a meeting by letting their computer do it for them, they will be booted quicker than they can…

Hey - some of us LIVE here and use the West Coast for other things than laying around and playing in pools of money like Scrooge McDuck.  Please use tactical smart-bombs and not nukes, so as to avoid wrecking the place when you take the ritchie-ritches out...

He’s accidently correct... the Stealth’s underpinnings and engine were from a Mitsubishi 3000GT, and the Dodge Avenger was an Eclipse.
