This is the kind of fun Jalopnik content that I miss. Maybe this site isn’t a lost cause after all.

Thank you! I’ve always hated Tokyo Drift. In a very Cars 2 sort of way, it’s all about a dumb American guy getting dropped into a foreign culture and somehow being better at everything than the locals, despite being, you know, a blithering idiot. It’s the white savior trope taken to comical extremes. And like Mater,…
I’m sorry, but Cars 2 is two insufferable hours of Mater bumbling around like an oblivious idiot, fighting with toilets, and accidentally saving the day over and over again. It’s barely watchable the first time. Also, a spy car is tortured with a death ray until he bursts into flames in what is ostensibly a children’s…
Galaxy Quest is the only good thing Tim Allen has ever done, and a damn good thing it is.
I’m guessing they probably have a tube with a funnel going to a jerry can or something. Either that or just a really big bucket that somehow fits under the car.

Same. I was mostly here for Jalopnik, but after Kristen Lee, Jason Torchinsky, David Tracy, and most of the other good writers moved on, there’s not much left that I actually bother to read.
I don’t either, I just figured it was part of this site’s general “slightly-humorous” tone (i.e. one or two jokes per article/listicle/clickbait headline).
I think it’s something known in the business as “a joke”.
Interesting that these same people haven’t had a single word to say about Disney’s infamous history of blatant racism in their early animated films. Song of the South much?
I remember seeing the original announcement for these long before the Mach-E was announced. I’m glad to see they finally managed to actually build them. It’s a pity they’re so expensive, but they’re awesome nonetheless. The ‘67-68 Mustang body style truly does not ever get old.
Did I miss something, or do they not want us seeing the front of the car for some reason?
I’ll wait for the Tyrannosaurus Imperator Furiosa.
I’d actually watch that. At least it would be something original and different.
Vanishing Point is entertaining if you’re absolutely in love with the 1970 Challenger. In every other respect, it’s a bizarre ‘70s fever dream that feels like it was written in about two-fifths of a draft.
Shit. “Bullitt: Reloaded” is actually a genius marketing idea, and I’m kinda mad that I didn’t think of it. The pun is so in-your-face stupid that it just might work. I wouldn’t even try to disguise it.
I’m strangely not inclined to disagree with any of those choices, although their relative ages are all over the board.
Unfortunately, pretty much all of Jalopnik’s good writers have jumped ship at this point.
This is the correct answer, especially since he’s done with Bond. I can’t think of anyone current actor who strikes me as more Steve McQueen-ish.
I’ll give you a few minutes to google Armie Hammer and find out why he isn’t the best idea (besides the fact that he’s an incredibly bland and boring actor).
