The only thing worse than taking a bad action is justifying taking a bad action. And justifying a bad action for five minutes, invoking God’s name in the process, and apologizing to everyone except the person you need to apologize to, is even worse.

Acting is acting. VO actors may not have hair, makeup, or wardrobe calls, but the productions we perform in, CARTOONS, have an evergreen shelf life, unlike most live-action shows. So, HOW exactly are we LESS valuable than our on-camera brothers and sisters?
Animation performers are united for a fair a contract! Tomorrow, we enter our second round of negotiations with the support of a 98% strike vote.

They crapped on “Arthur” by remaking it. They pissed on “The In-Laws” doing the same. “The Princess Bride” is the last *perfect* screen comedy of the past half-century. Please don’t perform any bodily functions upon it, show business. Go remake “They Call Me Bruce” or something.
