Can't speak for what contracts are like these days, but I can't imagine the direction of travel has gone against producers. UBCP always had a 200% buyout which assigned rights in perpetuity. Nice chunk of change up front. I heard that in Toronto under ACTRA they had a lower buyout but it was timed ...

Please don't take this the wrong way, because I think the dedication you guys have shown for this over the years and the level of knowledge you've developed about an impenetrable business you're (probably?) not involved in is impressive... But it's hilarious that you gave such a hard sell and know ...

I wouldn't put too much stock into the CRTC approval dates being solidly indicative of anything. I honestly know little to nothing about that process, but just because I was curious I looked up some stuff that I was involved in and the approval dates for for two shows are identical, when one of ...

Haha wow, thanks for the link. Every animation agreement I'd ever seen has had the same specific language about screaming, and I thought it was BS to only get paid for one line to scream your guts out. I can't imagine how bad people were getting washed back then.

In any case, that does clear that up. And with this, and Ian Corlett apparently leaving over pay disputes about screaming, which may still apply now(?), I can see why Ocean decided to only re-audition Kirby out of the three previous Vancouver voices of Goku.
I do wonder if they also re-auditioned ...

Corlett usually brings up the screaming & pay issue in interviews and convention panels, to my knowledge Kelamis has never really brought it up. I doubt this was even still an issue by the time of the Westwood dub as the unions had begun to amend that rule once anime work became more prevalent in ...

Haha, ouch those shows were a perfect confluence of insane deadlines and inexplicable BS from all possible sides. If you want to learn what a horrible, thankless task ADR is, there's your poster children

I think the subject of weird sound errors came up here before, but there's some stuff floating around with people complaining about vocals or sound effects suddenly disappearing and Bang Zoom getting the blame for it. I know that with TV you don't typically see the sausage being made, and when ...

I don't know anything about GT or its production but I'm going to guess they changed a character's name from "Rildo" because of what it rhymes with

Yeah the guy playing Gohan is pretty fantastic, handled the material about as well as you possibly could.

although he isn't on good terms with Corlett, Kelamis and Morrow.
Uh, are you sure? I can't even imagine how that would happen.
I believe that at one point, he blocked Peter Kelamis on Twitter for no reason, scolded Kirby Morrow for saying that he was the "voice of Goku" at a convention and he ...

I wouldn't put too much stock in ascribing intent to business decisions or marketing speak about home video. I think Rager's little outburst about the Bang Zoom thing was unprofessional, but I understand that it gets under your skin to get voice matched especially for work you take pride in, and in ...

Huh, I'd assumed this was some unnavigable licensing mess that would be a straight and immediate no. More than one phone call is a positive. Some of you guys should look at jobs in media licensing.

Well to tie a bow on the last couple of topics, most people don't know but Dale Wilson is former president of ACTRA and was the founding president of UBCP. Had a huge impact on lots of people in the business.

So they've cast for the U6 tournament? Interesting.

I've looked up a list of episodes to see what you mean and yes, even further than that
It's not too unexpected as they did license the first 52 episodes, well rather Toonami Asia did but I guess that extends to BZ.
Well, that makes sense. I ...

Huh, turns out a friend of a friend from some low budget work a few years back is working on this. I think last time I posted about this there was some concern about turnaround times on the episodes. I have no idea if the lack of showings has any effect on the production schedule (and I doubt it ...

Do AB retain the Dragonball Z license, if so does it cover this new show?
