To Detractors:
How wonderful is it? To keep tabs on me? You still didn’t answer my question. Oh well. Thats nice to know.
I still dont know why you need to watch me. Im not trying to get into the business. So why worry. There not gonna hire my ass anyway and why would they? I would want creative control over every god given nook and cranny. Yall dudes dont like that, aint that right Xodis? Every day i would be on the damn phone saying why isn’t there is NO promotion of my such and such, why isnt my shirts up in BAPE NYC? NO DVD, ONLY BLU-RAY…
Those things tend to get in peoples crawls. But hey. Its my vision. Your just funding a simple Catholic boy’s dream
But enough about dreams. Since you want to praise cookie jar because they to become OMG YES! in your eyes. Not mine. I see major problems ahead. An iceberg called “shitty product” that will continue to keep DICCookie on Ice, because they will never be VIP. Thats my T-I-P, for my next topic.
Oh Xodis, and Jeff and Mister Big who may not be married to Sarah Jessica Parker in a movie or in real life cause he must be ugly if hes watching me all the time, Your wasting your time on the watchtower. Can Mister Big go save this country from economic nightmares instead of watching me? Can he go stop the one world people from making this country into a socialistic hellhole? Can he make the black man stop acting like he don’t know any better, by giving them the one thing that can save him and maybe this nation, become a father and for the government not interfering with who he wants to marry and how to raise his kids?
But no, all three of you are watching ME.
For what reason now, in this stage – I am more important than any thing else in your lives? See here is my thing. If your bosses were smart – they would do the right things. Not by me – but by everyone else. But they dont, they cant and they never will. They have to be routed out by the You-Tubes of the world and the like.
And for all of Mister Big’s power – he cant stop the FCC, he cant change no E/I laws he cant do anything that is right, but the best he can do is watch me?
Yall sad. Really sad.
I bet your watching Nikki Finke too. See, she gets sick all the time and I have to wonder why. In fact, your watching Gia, Japanator, AniPages, John K, Cartoon Brew, Mike Barrier the whole nine yards… why?
Because i’m thinking you and your big boss want more generic hussies like Selina Gomez and Dawn Lavato playing around in their tween pron gimmicks. You may say you live for or love animation but your actions over the last several years prove otherwise. Unless you find a way to prove otherwise your never gonna get us back and your never gonna keep your new audience around. But cest la vie – no worries.
I will do more like the gurran lagrann article. But im gonna let you keep talking. Because one day – one day the third “heel” who is breathing down my back will be revealed. I dont have to do nothing. Not a damn thing.
Why? Because even though you are a smart man with a family – you have no damn honor. See, like i told Jeff before – if he is gonna deal with people like you, like they did when that European wanker did to Jeff – im worried for him.
Lets talk like men for once. Settle this issue you have with me, you, the big guy called Mr Big (but I should call him Tombstone) and Jeff. Lets see why you want me gone, watched like a slave every damn moment i make a comment, wishing i was homeless out on the street. And then when we talk, maybe you will understand – im not gonna be paid off. Im not gonna be your boy and get you your coffee. Im a human being dammit not some number on a computer console you or the big man can erase.
But lets see Xodis. If your not gonna tell me if there is a multi company and multinational hit on 4Kids, i will find somebody who will tell me. And it is by your very silence on this issue – that says volumes. So yes, 4Kids wins after all. You just don’t become a project manager and leave your project to die…
So Xodis. If you or the watchers dont want to talk, then i guess we can move on – i just talk what i want to talk about, i dont mention you, jeff or the big guy and we can move on with our lives.
Is that fair?

You’re some work, you know that, Patrick?
But it’s Monday, and work’s kind of slow right now, so, I’ll humor you.
First of all, you’re nobody. You’re not as big as you think you are. You attempt to convince your handful of readers that you’re similar to Mike, Jerry, Amid, and John, but your NOWHERE near the place they are. They actually done something instead of constantly complaining about it. Nikki’s closer to Jeff than you think. I’ve talked to her. Good girl, plus she digs Jeff’s site (she told me herself). Nikki looks for news, analyzes it, and opines about it without slandering folks. I don’t recall her ever posting a libelous post about executives craving trannies.
It’s stuff like that which makes everybody think you’re a joke, except Jeff, who, in his questionable wisdom actually thinks that deep down within you, you might actually have some reasonable talent.
You’re in no position to ask who I am or what I’m capable of doing, so I won’t. I will tell you this. Unlike you, I’ve been following the Cookie Jar-DiC deal since March (yes, it was annnounced in June, but discussions have been taking place since March, right after Easter). I’ve also been following 4Kids’s so-called ascent to greatness, despite profits falling and stock prices deflating (and they only own Chaotic, nothing more). Cookie Jar isn’t where 4Kids is right now, but after the DiC acquisition, they’re in a higher position than 4Kids ever thought.
Do you want to know why One Piece was ended by 4Kids? Viz owned the property outright and felt that 4Kids didn’t properly market the franchise, and they didn’t. Viz didn’t give up more of their control of the property, so 4Kids got rid of it. Now, One Piece is seen uncut on the home market, the movies are being dubbed (4Kids didn’t want to do that) and will be syndicated on Funimation Channel on a daily lineup next summer. They’re also going to strip it with two other former Toonami properties (one heavily controlled by Funi and the other an outside property) to out-Toonami Toonami.
You think Cookie Jar has problems? 4Kids might get sold by the end of next year. It’s really that bad. There’s already one company that’s interested in the acquisition. They’re keeping an ear on them. They’re just looking at the legal legistics on a possible purchase considering the Fox deal (which ends in September 2009) and The CW (that channel might end next fall unless something really, really monsterously huge happens on their end).
Another thing. Who the hell do you think is bankrolling the new season of Chaotic as well as instigated the new look?
My employers (who I won’t reveal to you, though you’ve already assumed it’s Disney thanks, in part, to my red herring “Mickey Mouse organization” comment) aren’t interested in you. I don’t even think they know who you are, but I could find out. I’m not targeting you because you’re on some watchtower This is just between you and I, practically because, well, you’re libeling a friend of mine, as well as the people he chose to associate himself with with in every outlet you come across, from Tripod to Yahoo to Blogspot to Game FAQs to Nyte Skye to Shadowness to this place. You still have two links pretty much libeling him on your front page (by the way, looking at the wire, Revolution 11 was successful; everything the campaign asked for is becoming a reality, though the Toonami name is toast). I gave Jeff a very legitimate reason from a legal perspective to sue you for everything you’ve got and even drew up the legal papers for a libel suit (which is how I came up with your folk’s address), but dammit, he’s such a damned goody-two-shoes.
That’s a character flaw of his. He is as nice as they come. Maybe it’s safe he’s not on the dark side. They’d eat him alive.
My employers know Jeff by reputation and word of mouth. Execs and animators know of his work on the site. Some cringe at what he have to say, some laugh, and others privately ask why they can’t hire him? Something about pedigree/privilege or other BS. He’s a good guy, which is why he’s a poor guy.
He couldn’t sell ads for his site because he didn’t own the underlaying property the site was originally based on. He wanted to do a lot of things, but he always maintained this noble gentleman trait. I called him up the other night, but he was working on the site and a few things outside the site. He showed me some sketches the last time I was in the area, and they’re impressive concepts, especially that animal idea of his. I didn’t want him to tell me any more than that because I don’t want him to accuse me of stealing it. It’s that good.
I know folks down in Atlanta weren’t happy with what went down at CNX. Some of those folks are on the Left Coast and friends of mine. They said they wanted to bring him over to CN, but his grandfather got sick and the whole Pittman takeover took place (Jeff thought it was all Kellner . . . Kellner was just the broadcast guy, Pittman ran the show along with Bewkes, who was just under him. Pittman got the initial blame, Kellner got the secondary blame, and Bewkes swooped in to take over the whole show, which he did. Jeff figured it out when it was too late). Plus, they let him keep the CNX name, but you know that’s gone now. They didn’t have to do that, mind you.
It’s called respect.
Thing about Jeff is that I told him I’d help him out whenever I could. I, and a lot of my friends, know he’s a good guy, just has a lot of unfortunate luck. He has responsibilities, but there’s always a place for him here and anywhere else he wants.
You, on the other hand, need to let go of whatever hostility you have towards Jeff. He’s not your enemy. Neither am I. It tends to make you look . . . what’s the word, jealous, envious, and just sad. I don’t want you gone. I just want you to get this massive chip off your shoulder, grow up, and let the past be the past.
You’re not as big as you think you are. Nobody’s watching you but me. You have the power to change that. Be constructive instead of destructive, and stop blaming “the man” for stuff you want to do and won’t.
If you allow me to be the boogyman, the thing that has gotten to your inner core, then so be it.
Be seeing you.
