He's also responsible for raising all the money that paid for bringing Hollingsworth v. Perry & even more importantly Bostic v. Schaefer, which created the circuit split that forced SCOTUS to take on Obergefell v. Hodges. The role he played in American marriage equality cannot be overstated.
The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing.
All from his movies.

I don't believe for a second this is dead and buried, nor do I think this'll end with Amazon, but this proves we can push it back every time it pops up and eventually it'll move on. I'll take that.
BANANA FISH no longer has an English dub on Amazon

The reason why this hurts so much is because every dubbing studio in the Los Angeles area has been hit with at least one wave of layoffs or a significant reduction in the amount of contractors that have been hired.
All that devastation to our economy, for this?

The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them
A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

This is like learning "Do you think God stays in heaven because he too lives in fear of what he's created?" came from a goddamn Spy Kids movie.
The damned in hell are not more powerful for the fact that the fires do not consume them; it is part and parcel of their torment.

Important update: I have received word from insiders that Crunchyroll executives have deemed the user backlash to be small enough that their subtitle enshittification & OOONA plans will NOT be cancelled, only delayed.
I have added an update to the article. There's a summary at the top now too.

A ton of research and effort went into this one. This is the article to read to get to the bottom of Crunchyroll's subtitle changes!

With the Fall 2025 anime season, Crunchyroll demonstrates zero respect for anime as a medium as the presentation quality of its subtitles reach an all-time low.

The Frieren drawing meme is funny, but I also have mad respect for anyone who puts thought to pen over prompt regardless of the end result. There's mad power in that.

Hey uh, source for this is some guy self-inserted himself into the IMDb listings for these shows. Since Viz isn't redubbing My Hero Academia, Vinland Saga and Demon Slayer anytime soon, I'd safely bet this is bunk.
These Animes will be getting an English Dub. (No Release Dates)

"What if one of YOUR favorite politicians/celebrities/etc is on the list?" Did you all not notice how quickly we dropped Neil Gaiman when we found out about the things he did? Do you know how beloved that guy used to be and how loathed he is now? I think that right there should answer your question.

Oh cool, just kinda slid this one under the table with no fanfare, huh?
Can't wait for the inevitable "Why isn't this getting a dub/BD?" "No one watched it." "But you didn't advertise it." cycle to begin anew.

Every day I'm reminded I left at just the right time.
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.
They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.
If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."
🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.
