>>23408011>All the actors had signed exclusivity contracts with 4Kids, and they legally couldn't be employed for the new dub. The thing is this is all bullshit started by James Cathcart and Bill Rogers (current Brock, James, Meowth, and Prof. Oak) on Serebii Forums, when they were sockpuppeting as OldGuardTruthSeeker and NewBrock: that's not what happened at all- Rachael Lillis (OG Jessie/Misty) and Maddie Blaustein (4Kids' 2nd and final Meowth) both outright denied these claims as false.
What really happened is that only James Cathcart and Kayzie Rogers were given the offer to jump ship, and so they did, while the 4Kids main cast was never approached altogether-- just thought I'd correct this piece of information.
>What happened is Warner Brothers opted not to air importsNot sure what this means: could you elaborate? I'm curious about this.
Fair enough on the music.
Amen to that: I wouldn't even mind them sucking if they didn't actually jadedly think they're great at it or that they are better than their predecessors, but they do.
