Skippy McPants posted:Trying to follow the stuff with Vic and Hazukari but I'm not very big into anime and I find it interesting that most everything appears to be happening in twitter threads. Aren't there industry outlets (e.g. like Polygon or Kotaku are for games) that would run a story about these allegations? Industry might report on Vic if credible, concrete evidence comes to light, but Hazu was just a dude who was anitwitter popular and managed to push his way into some industry parties and circles. He has a small fan base, but he has no actual clout.

Anime is very much like gaming in that the vast majority of big journalism outlets have essentially been turned into industry press release distributors at this point, and very little actual journalism happens in the mainstream. The Pedantic Romantic did a really good video on this, but basically since industry sources will immediately cut you off the moment you piss them off nobody wants to risk upsetting them by running an exposè on some big name creep.

Babysitter Super Sleuth posted:If I recall, the green M&Ms thing originated with The Who, and the incident everyone remembers of them flipping out over M&Ms also ended with the stage loving collapsing during load-in because the promoter didn't read the loving safety rider either. As someone who actually works in that industry, its a 100% justified level of paranoia because we are all on drugs, all the time, and cannot be trusted. The story goes that they put the green M&Ms thing in because it was an easy way to tell if a venue didn’t read the contract very well. It’s actually really clever.

nine-gear crow posted:I remember folks being upset when he was cast at Matt in Digimon Tri, doubly so when Michael Reiz (the original VA for the character) came out and said he wasn’t even called to see if he wanted to come back for it (he did) like pretty much everyone in the old cast was. If he's union now this is literally the official cover story they use when they can't return due to union rules.

My mom worked at an arena and was in charge of mostly feeding the backstage but also some A/V stuff. She was super dutiful about reading riders. She said Fountains of Wayne had the funniest "Green M&M" one where they asked for a pet kitten in all of the bands' guest rooms. They had a laugh with her when she put some toy stuffed kittens in the room. Not related to the Green M&Ms thing, but Foo Fighters had a super long list of cereals they'd ask for and when my mom got all of the cereals, Dave came by and talked to her and gave her a big hug. She has been the #1 Foo Fighters fan since then. She said the nicest people were FF and System of a Down, the worst were (unsurprisingly) Creed and Limp Bizkit.

Yeah I think he’s a PGA member now because he was a producer on that Shadowhunters TV show. Don’t know if that has any bearing on SAG or it’s voice actor equivalent though, but yeah that makes sense.

stillvisions posted:Also feel like that may have been a bit of atonement from Swery for the ending of Deadly Premonition, which is the literal "guy in a dress" serial killer trope. Ehhh, just on this point I disagree a bit any time it comes up in Deadly Premonition talk, because really the game very much portrays Thomas as a victim too, getting a really sympathetic ending unlike the other antagonists, even being included in the lineup of Goddesses of the Forest, which was a very thoughtful inclusion that would've been very easy to not have. That's always convinced me that Swery's been a good guy all along.

Also keep in mind, Johnny Depp beat the poo poo out of Amber Heard for years while they were married and she torpedo’d his career by going public with his abuse. She’s not exactly afraid to call out men acting lovely in her life, even if it’s just dumb poo poo like ripping pages out of books.

Johnny Depp still gets casted in everything though? I know that his star appeal is de-facto dead in the eyes of audiences but studios still keep putting him front and center regardless.

FoldableHuman posted:donoteat01 has a new video about Elon Musk's awful Loop. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dn6ZVpJLxs One minute into the video and I, a total amateur in the field of engineering, was asking; “How can it be so fast if it relies on cars being put on an elevator one at a time? Aren’t elevators of that size really, really slow?” For a while I wondered whether this was a mistake on my part but no, Musk really had missed that incredibly obvious point along with all the other reasons his design wouldn’t work. The guy must be nuts. Edit: seriously it's like one of those crazy schemes Retsupurae made fun of years ago. Bakeneko fucked around with this message at 23:27 on Jan 21, 2019 |
