Winick, McGowan, and Mueller prove able to reinvigorate a tired May-December premise through observant character comedy. In the pivotal and tricky role of the sexy stepmom, Weaver is all class, dancing with Stanford through words and looks her reactions range from bemused to sympathetic to aching.
Stanford, in his debut film role, shows both heart and comic acuity, while reliable troopers Neuwirth and Ritter do some of their sharpest film work. The photography has the foggy look of the digital-to-film transfer, but its a worthwhile trade-in for the film's easy charm and on-the-nose performances. Gary Winick adds a level of efficiency with his resourceful direction and nifty use of interstitial Voltaire title cards (though they sometimes seem randomly placed, they add thoughtful flavor and transitional punch). Undeniably riffing on (and alluding to) The Graduate, the screenplay by Heather McGowan & Niels Mueller hits the right notes with simplicity and sensitivity for its likeably searching characters. Matters farcically complicate when an unscheduled meeting with Eve's chiropractor friend Diane (Bebe Neuwirth) takes an unexpected turn. Stanley and Oscar's best friend Charlie (Robert Iler of The Sopranos) pester Oscar about getting something going with a nice young girl his age, but Oscar harbors a secret crush.on his middle-age stepmother Eve (Sigourney Weaver).

This is also my first mod for DCS (however I did a voice ATC mod some month ago which will also be released shortly) so I will hopefully get better and can also work on some cool features for CA.With clever writing and direction, the looseness afforded by shooting digital, and crack performances, Tadpole overcomes its essential slightness to become an amusingly cheery comedy about miserable people.Īaron Stanford plays Oscar Grubman, the WASPy New York offspring of John Ritter's Stanley Grubman. The first release of the prototype will be next week, however in case someone has suggestions I decided to open the thread a little earlier.

I do own Steel Beasts Pro PE and I get inspired from it however some interiors are also missing there.Īlso post feedback and suggestions in this thread! It is extremly tough to gather references of some vehicles out there so I would appreciate some help in case you are interested! Just post it in this thread here. If the interests is high enough please help me to get further references of vehicles like for example the LAV-25. I decided to make this mod public in the future so if someone likes it and wants to have it. The zoom mode will hide this information. The interior view will also show where the turret and vehicle is facing but this is not done just yet. Basically an Alpha version to get out of the prototype state. When these are done I will however redo the interiors and polish them in the second pass. Planned replacement of sounds: Bushmaster, Coax Gun, EngineĪfter I've finished the Bradley I will move on to the M1A2 Abrams and the Stryker.
The next step would be to modify the sounds.
