Bro the first few ratchet and clank games were my jam and captain qwark was quite funny in all of them. Those games were also just amazing on the voice acting end in general. Garcia was only 50 as well shit sucks bro
 
I remember being sad when Jim ward retired about 5 years ago because I love the rachet and clank games, he died to young but at least he had some time to relax.
Jeff Garcia was so amazing as sheen it's hard to imagine sheen bring voiced by an actor. Garcia was just that good. He also voiced the best character in clone high Jesús christo, I'm sure it'll be taken in good humor.

i was going to blackpill, but not today satan.

i hope they knew the extent of how many children they helped through difficult times, the sheer web of kids that got solace or comfort from horrible days at school or home, or just entertainment from their characters. they were part of the last wave of effort western media before the enshittification, and none of their ips they worked on will ever be the same in future production because there will never be the originals, (well, until the contract approved ai replacement hellscape) just the replacements (or even more sad, simply removing/ignoring the characters).

we really need to fucking block shitty troon writers/artists, jeets, and political cliques faster, if we're not already at the event horizon, and start getting actual new generation talent before we just have monopolies endlessly churning blue's clues but worse or i-cant-believe-its-not-troon-propaganda

Geez grim really is putting in overtime before 2025 ends isn't he?
 
Jeff also voiced Pip from Back at the Barnyard.

I think Back at the Barnyard was actually pretty ahead of its time with a lot of the humor. It definitely foretold internet humor in a lot of ways. The show still makes me laugh out loud more than not, even if it's just for the absolute wtf moments.

Apparently Garcia had a lot of health issues the last couple years, including a stroke and brain aneurysm. There was probably a lot of suffering he had to go through, so I hope he can be at peace now. I feel very sorry for his family, 50 is way too young to die.

A.K.A the looney tunes holiday special that was featured in lethal weapon (where riggs is contemplating on an hero with his pistol. But is then reminded of his wife after getting distracted by the tv and then doesn't an hero)

Its only decent part I liked was the roadrunner short by chuck jones in-between the stilted friz freleng stuff in the beginning and end.

That special was all over the place in regards to legends sharing the space like that (Jones being sandwiched between Freleng). I felt Friz's parts were weaker than Chuck's.

I was just about to be like “Well yeah, they HAVE to match the voice actor’s race!” Then I’m like “Fuck, there might be a good chance of that.”

Are we just not allowed to have straight-up evil/douchbag characters anymore? Why is it that these people in power need to explain to the plebs that "no really, they are actually good, but had a fucked-up past, so it's not really their fault they are like this!"

Malificent, Cruella de Vil, even shit like Venom on the Marvel side of things. At this point all of these things are just the director's/writer's fanfic projected onto the big screen because they are talentless hacks that can't come up with an original idea.

On the flip side, you have evil superheroes like Hyperion, Brightburn, Homelander, and Kamen Rider Zein.

We are, but only if they’re ‘cis-straight white males’ If they’re women they can’t actually be all that evil. Side note, I feel like this started with fucking Wicked in 2004, but I can’t be sure, when did the badguy isn’t actually evil start gaining mainstream appeal?

Forgot about Venom! Nope we need to make evil good and Good evil it seems.
