I'm not sure if you can answer this, but you've been able to answer this vaguely in the past so I figure I'll give it a try: any idea if Toonami's budget being effected, too?
Not at this time!

Great, Toonami is being cut back due to low rating. Have you guys even considered airing one of Sentai Filmworks's anime in Toonami to help save your asses? Log Horizon and Akame Ga Kill are good choices.
It's not about one show "saving our asses," and you're high if you think the answer to ratings issues is "just work with this one company!" Come on.

Jason I no longer care what shows you have to get just please don't let Toonami get cancelled again, I'm already starting to feel depressed :( Sorry that this isn't really a question..
It's really not in my hands, it's in YOURS. Watch it, and it won't get canceled!

don't say this is foreshadowing for more bad news!?
It could be, or maybe not. Don't know!
With Kill la Kill premiering the week after the 5 & 5:30 A.M timeslots being removed, what show will be leaving on 2/7 in order to make room?
You'll know as soon as the decision is made.

Does the schedule change mean that Intruder 2 could possibly be affected?
Nope.
I hope losing the 5AM hour had nothing to do with the block's performance. Will the crew be able to answer any questions about it during Sunday's Q&A?
It's definitely to due with ratings expectations. Not sure what else we would need to say, or be able to say about it.

Figure I'll try and ask before everyone else: what's going on with the Toonami schedule?
You read the post, right? Seems pretty clear.
So when singing along to a rap song do you supplement thw N word for something else or just skip over it?
Usually just skip over it.
Who was your favorite actor in Guardians of the Galaxy
I guess Chris Pratt, but they were all fine.
So when I was in HS (2005-09) there were a lot of channels that had anime on them. Other than Cartoon Network/Adult Swim and the WB/CW, channels like IFC and Syfy had them. Hell, even G4, Starz and Encore had anime on them. Now it seems only CN/Toonami carry anime. What happened with this change?
Nobody watched enough of it. Streaming is slowly killing the idea of anime being a mass market entertainment in the US. There are a ton of complex factors, but right now, that's the biggest one.
What do you think of the new Batman games?
I like them alright but they have had diminishing returns for me.
Thoughts on the new Burial tune?
It's Burial so of course it's perfect.
So I haven't had a chance to listen lately but did you guys rename Music Bros to Williams Street Music Club? Any reason for the change in particular? I like both names, so it made me wonder.
Just because at some point it stopped being just BROS, so.
Jason! Good news! Tomorrow's my birthday! I'll be 18!
happy birthday!

What your take on all the controversy with American sniper?
Mostly stupid and overblown. The movie is flawed but not bad at all. It's CLEARLY about the very real cost of war both for the men fighting it and their families caught in the crossfire. Bradley Cooper is great in it, and it draws a striking contrast between what it's like being in a war zone and coming back to adjust to "normal" life. However, in its urge to deal with Chris Kyle's memory (who, let's remember, WAS MURDERED) respectfully, it elides some stuff about his character that could have been very interesting to explore. Stuff like, oh, I dunno, WHAT KIND OF PERSON CAN KILL 160 PEOPLE?? And also, the irony of living by the gun and him being killed by a fellow veteran. Beyond that, the film does very little to humanize Iraqis. It's clearly told from the POV of Kyle, but it goes too far to paint him as a hero. Like most biopics, his real life was a thousand times more interesting. Yet, there are some compelling sequences and it may be Clint Eastwood's most technically accomplished film. With a subject like this, it's going to be easy for people to fall into one of two idealogical camps, and while the film doesn't do enough to push against that idea, it's not totally black and white, either. I doubt people will remember it much in the years to come.

Jason, is Daylight Curfew still selling Toonami t-shirts?
yep
what do you say when singing along with rap music and they say the n word? or when a you tell someone hey did you hear "Hot N-word" by Bobby Shmurda?
I generally don't say it, even when singing along, but I think it's okay to say if it's in the title of a work, when you are referring to said work in conversation.

Thoughts about that stupidly fake baby in American Sniper?
I cannot imagine giving a fuck about that. I didn't notice it when I saw the movie, at that point you're pretty invested in what's happening between the couple. Only the Internet would make a thing out of something so small and pointless.
Do you still have that funny cartoon doodle of yourself grinning?
From the Pando profile of me? Yeah!

Did CN give out watches as employee gifts/awards one year? I say this because I found a watch with the smallest old school logo on it.
No, never.
