I'm assuming you've bought gear from Daylight Curfew?
yeah of course. Good gear, which is why we let them make Toonami stuff.
Best movies you've seen so far this year?
Too early for all that. Get back to me in six months!
What would you do if Brett Gelman invited you to dinner?
Kill him.
Agree or Disagree. Yugioh is worse than SpongeBob?
AGREE 100%
How was Toonami able to air Ghibli films in 2006-2008 if the rights were owned by Disney?
They weren't. STUDIO GHIBLI owned the broadcast rights, and licensed some of the movies to Turner for some period of time and some amount of money, which they probably had to share with Disney for the dub.
If more tamer/family-friendlier shows such as King of the Hill, Inuyasha, IGPX, Samurai Jack, Clone Wars, and Sym-Bionic Titan are placed at the end of Adult Swim in case kids wake up early, why is Sit Down Shut Up at the very beginning on Saturdays and Sundays?
Think that through and get back to me. The answer is pretty obvious.
Since you've been involved with production on shows before, with regards to the Zelda series, be it live action or animated (I agree with you that animated would be better), how would you handle Link's lack of speaking in the games? That seems like it would be impossible to replicate in a series.
I think you could work it out in a cartoon. You could even experiment with him not talking in the show!
Not only are you god of Toonami, but your a very inspirational & supportive person. So when does the DeMarco Code come out that tells us your secrets?
There is some guy on FandomPost forums called 27CansofTuna who keeps saying that non-action shows should air on Toonami and he never realize that Toonami is an action block no matter how much we tell him. Do you think he is just saying that to piss us off?
I dunno man, there are a lot of armchair quarterbacks out there. I say to all of them: Go make your own cartoon block! I'd love to watch it!
Who would you go see at Shaky Knees Festival?
Tame Imapla, Metz, Viet Cong maybe? I won't be going.
Who is your style icon?
Albert Einstein.
Long story short.....Zoids?
I'm not even sure what is being asked here.
After reading some show suggestions from fans for old shows and also seeing fan uneasiness about losing the VO guy do you think allot of fans are stuck in the 90s?
Some are, and I get it. Toonami was a big part of their childhood. But if they want us to survive, we have to evolve with the times. That's really all there is to it. People are scared of change, in my experience, but they usually get over it.
How much of your own discretion as opposed to fan oppinions do you use when selecting shows and running operation?
It's more our discretion than fan opinions. Where fan opinion comes in is pointing us towards shows we might not have seen, or know people are really into. Then, we take a look at them.
Do you agree with the saying that Nintendo games "are for babies"?
Nah, games are for everyone.
Does it suck to not get paid for doing Toonami?
Nah I get paid to do a lot of fun stuff. Toonami is a lot of work but everyone who works on it, loves it. That's why we do it.
No new Toonami mixes coming soon?
No, sorry.
I just watched a podcast with you and your voice sounds a lot kinder than I imagined, I like it.
Thank you.
Why do you think there is a bias against theatrical 2D animated films these days? For example, many think the new SpongeBob movie (which is mostly 2D) may not have done as well had it not been for the overly promoted 3D/live action scenes that are only in the movie for 20 minutes.
I wish I knew, I really do.
How do I get over an ex?
Only thing you can do is take it one day at a time. Eventually, you won't think of them as much. Then, you'll find yourself wanting to go meet someone new. Then, you'll be in a new relationship. The key is not to rush it. Grieve over your past relationship without focusing on it too much.
