Because that hood ornament looks like a fucking knife.

And acts like one, should you choose to ram pedestrians. Or deer.

Don't worry, I learned how dangerous hood ornaments were when I saw that one scene in The Great Gatsby.

It's.... ok. It's a lot better than the book. They deliberately made it loud and raucous (in a way) so it isn't boring. It's a lot like one giant party. I wasn't bored during the movie, but it wasn't really anything special.

Ah, so it was a Duesenberg! My dad owes me 20 bucks.

I liked it so much I bought it on DVD. It's a very long movie though.

In the newest one it is. In the older ones, of which there are many, it is either a Duesenberg or a Rolls-Royce. It varies by film.

Yup, the newest one. We were discussing Gatsby's yellow car and the blue "coupe" from the antagonist whose name I don't remember, I said I thought the cars were definitely a Duesenberg and an Auburn, and he said they weren't. But they are :p

These things are the reason for the saying "life's a Doosey", and I can see why. they look well off!

But if you're gonna talk about big & imposing, you gotta mention the '59 buick.
