Too busy and my scanner is in a box, so the Let's Anime this week is a column about parody dubbing that I ran last March over at Anime Hell, and earlier it appeared at the Athenstown newspaper, I believe. Newly updated with anecdotes from Pinesalad Production's Alan!

By the way, you know what's awesome? Those new Puffs tissues that are impregnated with the menthol smell of Vicks. They are awesome. You get a box of those and that's a weekend right there, man, the Puffs is a four-way trip baby! They'll probably find out it causes brain damage soon, so stock up now.

BTW you may wonder why I've bothered to chime in after all this time; but actually, it's because that after 11 years, our egos shrunk a bit, so we decided for old times sake to inflate them again and do a new parody (we're in the post production phase right now, and if all goes well we will be showing it in under a year) called:

"Mighty Morphin' Iczer Rangers" (a sequel to a parody we did way back in 1992 called "Iczer-C : The Untold Story")

So, with all that said, nice to know you're still thinking about us after 11 years; and it's also nice to see how your ego has lessened in that time.

But, don't let me ruin your fun, please all, continue with the Sherbert Productions parody bashing. ;)

Oh, and my bad - The above two posts are from me, Phillip Sral, co-founder of Sherbert Productions (Sorry, my ego was so huge in the above two posts, I forgot to mention my name). ;) again.

As cute as it is to be "reminded" of what I said in panels that happened 11 years ago, the sad fact is that I was not on ANY parody dubbing/Corn Pone Flicks/whatever panels at AWA in 1997. You may be attributing my remarks to Matt Murray or CB Smith, both of whom are prone to say pretty much anything at any time to anybody. At the time, I was a bit too busy running AWA to sit on many panels.

I'm pretty sure any contact we'd had with a lawyer representing the copyright holder for Space Cruiser Yamato would be a serious case of mis-delivered mail.

Matt DID get blanks and a request for copies from a guy who worked at a law firm, and as I recall there were some jokes about that, but boy oh boy, an actual C&D letter would have been like gold.

You may be happy to learn that CPF hasn't produced a parody dub in, what, 15 years? and has not hogged the podium at anime con panels since something like 1999 or 2000... I forget.

I wish you luck in your new endeavours, and I apologize for the insulting tone of my 11-year old impressions.

Just realized Star Dipwads II was 1997, only 11 years ago. Seems like a lot longer, don't it kids!
