Tim Curry is escaping to the one place that hasn't been corrupted by capitalism.

SPACE

[anxietyprimev]

The way he says _"SPACE!"_ just screams "we're on take 25 and I can still barely contain my laughter".

A reviewer once said about Tim Curry:

"For every 1-star movie he's been in, he's the reason that movie got that star."

[Terp]

When you create a line so outrageous, that even Tim Curry can't get a good take out without holding back laughter... you know you've created a masterpiece

[Rebochan]

this was his *first* take.

You are literally watching him read the line for the first time and be consumed by joy.

I hope everyone understands, this is NOT bad writing. This is a game with laser-Mount Rushmore, trained attack bears, psychic schoolgirls, and transformers. They knew exactly what tone they wanted.

[clydemarshall]

I love how you can see him just barely containing his laughter.

The man invented entirely new vowels

When even Tim Curry has trouble keeping a straight face, you know there's something very special about the line delivery.

[weshansen]

Everyone interprets it as him holding back laughter, but I always thought of it as him being uncontrollably elated at the thought of escaping to space, as if it's the one things he's always wanted to do.

[TheStrongVirus]

You can tell he’s on the verge of bursting out into laughter before saying, “space!”
It’s so genuine that it adds so much charm to it, makes it better than if he were to deliver it as if it were any other line.

[AINGELPROJECT]

I love this because while in reality Tim Curry was clearly struggling not to burst out laughing, within the context of the game it still works because his character is so insanely evil, it comes across as him resisting the urge to cackle evilly

Mr. Burns: "We did twenty takes, and that was the best one."

[michaeldukes]

He’s not trying to hold in his laughter, guys. That’s just Tim Curry.

[matthewrose]

That pause in between lol
It's like he's waiting for us to ask him "...Where would that be...?"

[ShadowdaHedgie]

I just love that fact that Tim Curry can't even keep a straight face while doing this line. And then the fact that they chose that take to put in the game.

[Dorelaxen]

There was never a single time that Tim Curry phoned in a performance. He puts his all into every single thing he does.

[mikedx]

"Should we put the take where Tim Curry is clearly laughing at his lines into the final game?" "Is that even a question?"

[MrPwner]

Tim's face before dramatically announcing "SPACE!" gets me every time. I miss the man's work, strokes are horrible to suffer through even when you make it through.

When Tim Curry gets to Mars, he's renaming it Marx
