Re: Vic Mignogna

If there were considerations about recasting Vic Mignogna ahead of the film’s dubbing, that certainly would explain why it took them so long to confirm him for the dub, and why Chris Sabat did the stock sounds for him in the initial trailer.

Re: Vic Mignogna

You're completely missing the point. Point is, we shouldn't be surprised that Vic has more people defending him/supporting him than people who have committed rape or other things ike that. Somebody proposed his support is a function of being Christian, when in reality he simply hasn't committed the...

Re: Vic Mignogna

I don't think Vic committed anything nearly as severe as any of the other people you mentioned, either. Yes, as far as I am aware he hasn’t raped or attempted rape. It doesn’t diminish his behavior just because there are people who have done worse things but unless new info comes out let’s keep in ...

Re: Vic Mignogna

Alright, I’m not going to make any comments on Mignogna himself (that horse has already been beaten), but I do have to wonder about something in regards to his defenders. Would all these people on YouTube and Twitter have been so inclined to jump to his defense if he hadn’t been a devout Christian?...

Re: Vic Mignogna

The only reason Monica and Marchi are being targeted is becuase they made the the mistake of being public about the situation. Unlike everyone else including Vic himself giving generic simple "no comment" or a simple responses and dropping it. These two instead come out to the "prove...

Re: Vic Mignogna

I think you answered your own question. This is just insane. If people are seriously trying to muddy the waters by going after Rial and Marchi, then the anime fandom must give Star Wars fans a run for their money in terms of being downright awful. To be fair, Jamie was a bit too riled up about this...

Re: Vic Mignogna

Then just watch/read DB and don't read the BTS stories. Given how active the KickVic thing has been, these stories are pretty much impossible to avoid at this point. This thread alone is at nearly 40 pages, which I’d say is a testament to how prominent Vic Mignogna’s name has become. I know that we...

Re: Vic Mignogna

Then disconnect from this forum for a bit. The only place I read about this issue was here. I'm sure it's going around the net, but it's very possible to not be inundated with this issue if you don't go looking for it. It's not exactly front page news. Mignona's name has only become prevalent in ce...

Re: Vic Mignogna

I mean, it's not like you're giving VIC your money. As per the rules of anime dub voice acting, they don't have to pay their actors royalties, even if they're union, due to it being a show or movie that's already done in another language first. You're still paying FUNi, but it's unlikely your money...

Re: Vic Mignogna

Vic is a dub actor, not the face of Dragon Ball. I don’t see why one asshole dub actor ruins an entire series for you, unless you’re primarily a dub only guy. I live in the U.S., so if I support Dragon Ball, I’m supporting FUNimation, and I don’t want to at this point. I mean, it's not like you're ...

Re: Vic Mignogna

I know people thought I was being ridiculous when I said that I don’t want to be supporting Dragon Ball for the time being, but this past week has convinced me more than ever that I would be better off staying the hell away from this franchise until this mess settles down. I don’t want to have to d...

Re: Vic Mignogna

I’m just stopping by right now to say one last thing: this whole situation is, for lack of a better term, a complete clusterfuck. Between the allegations against Mignogna, the allegations against Todd Haberkorn, the reported attempts at falsifying evidence to make Mignogna look worse than he already...

Re: Vic Mignogna

YouTube really isn’t having any of this KickVic stuff, and many are insisting that people are going after Mignogna because he’s a white Christian man. That’s not surprising, but I wonder if that’s more of a statement on YouTube itself (which seems to lean fairly heavily towards the conservative side...

I wasn’t overreacting. I didn’t call Marsters a rapist or anything like that. I was just pointing out that there are a couple of sketchy things about him.
