After their thread was dormant for three days, people finally started posting...misinformation.

View attachment 702867

It's weird how they're so close to the actual events that happened but leave out the things that give it legitimacy. It almost feels like a disinformation op.

They're afraid that if they did an ounce of unbiased research on the matter they might be wrong, and the last thing these retards want to think is to be wrong. It is the essence of a hugbox.

It's funny when the Weeb Wars started, I looked at some of the merch that Vic signed for me and thought "So, now I know what a Michael Jackson or Bill Corby fan feels like." I had not felt that level of grief since Chester Bennington committed suicide. as I watched more and more of this wretched tale unfold, I no longer wallow in that sadness. Instead, righteous indignation towards these snakes who had the intestinal fortitude, the gall, to call Vic their "friend" while the plotted to stab him in the back. Looking at how they and their supporters have conducted themselves only strengthens my positions.

Never meet your heroes. That said, Vic's fans seem to like him the more they know about him.

Mueller Report is in. Does he cover that sort of thing?

Nick? No, he doesn't seem to cover "serious" stuff like that as much. Leonard French might, though. (I suggest we keep non-Weeb Wars-related Nick discussion in his thread.)

even if there was no new Broly movie,the character became too popular he started to become a constant presence in the video games in an almost yearly basis since the Budokai days,and Vic was always coming back for those.And I'm almost sure it was Sabat who first got Vic to play Broly in the old movies since he's usually the one who call the shots in most of the Dragon Ball dubs.Pretty funny how he seemed to know about these stories for a long time but still kept calling Vic back for the DBZ games that have been coming out for the last 15 years,huh?
I'm sure the outrage against Sabat will be funny to watch the moment they show Broly Super in FighterZ with a new voice...

Either that or people will boycott by not buying the Broly (Super) DLC in FighterZ if Vic isn't the English voice actor for him. However, most people are not even aware of the Weeb Wars and are just going to buy that DLC without question. I'm just glad Vic voices Broly (Super) in Xenoverse 2.

Was looking at the twitter thread for Nick's announcement. "You know what would ruin a weekend...getting served Papers at 4:59pm. " Oh, we can only hope.

We, sadly, don't even know if this is even Vic related, though it's more probable than not. Dunno, has anything happened with the Mark Waid case?

IIRC Waid's Texas lawyer (since Zaid ain't licensed to practice law in Texas) asked for a delay since they have an upcoming case that they were committed to before being hired by Waid. Everyone agreed to a continuance so we are still in a holding pattern.

I believe you can file with the court right up to 4:59 on a business day. Since this is Texas, that will be in 30 minutes.

All #IStandWithVic: I'm pondering suggesting that we who battle with Ren and his goons block all of them in that corner of Twitter. We're serving no purpose, losing our big assets, and they're mostly only going after those of us who are pestering them. I'd like to go radio silent and block all of them. If people agree, we can make a quick block list of the ones who regularly report to Ren with scalps. Thoughts?

More than you deserve, but it’s worth knowing that we don’t need to deperson those we have differences with.

Volunteer more, go to bed early, workout, and connect with your family.

1. You lose a ton of Gohan/Piccolo character development if you cut out all of his filler in the Saiyan arc.

2. OG dub voice for Freeza (IE the one who had an evil grandmother who chain smoked), was way more interesting/fun than Kai, which went out of it's way to ape the original Japanese version of Freeza; who was a super polite, smug psychopath who fit with Toriyama's vision of Freeza as a Patrick Bateman-type real estate big wig, which Toriyama despised. OG Dub Freeza is a wonderfully snarky, mean spirited little shit but Kai/Super comes across as a try-hard Bateman type

I've only watched anime subbed, so the dub changes are irrelevant to me, but what does affect me is the music. Kai's OST is garbage compared to Z. The fact that they changed the music from Tamashi tai Tamashi from Gohan's SSJ2 debut to anything else should be considered a crime.

I agree about all the scenes they cut. It ruins a lot of development and build up, plus some of the anime-original stuff was pretty entertaining. And never say never about stuff like that. Broly was anime-original but now he's canon because he was so popular. Plus there's more fanservice if you're into that.

The Meyer v Waid case is delayed until the 12th. Updates are here.


I'm hoping that the "storm" is Kameha Con related. Maybe they caved and are letting Vic back in? Ty is pressuring them, so.....

What happens if she gets a retraction letter from the Beard and refuses to do it?

Nothing unless a lawsuit gets filed afterwards. Then exemplary damages are available. The letter does nothing by itself.
