Vic Mignogna Lawsuit |OT| Hold My Beard (Update: Appeal lost, Mignogna must pay attorney fees to defendants)
- Thread starter Sibersk Esto
- Start date
- Thanks to social media, there was finally widespread realization that Vic was a literal piece of shit, and people started cancelling his gigs.
- Kamehacon realized that he was shit (apparently due to social media), so they cancelled his appearance.
- Vic whined and screamed at Kamehacon about how they can't cancel his appearance, because he has a contract, and his lawyers told him that Kamehacon isn't allowed to cancel, and if they cancel he's going to sue them.
- Kamehacon can't afford lawyers, so they let the whiny baby back in.
- Some celebrities cancelled because they didn't want to be in the same building as Vic. Unlike Vic, Kamehacon did not threaten to sue any of these people. Other celebrities decided to just hold their nose and go to the convention.
- Vic then sued his enemies for (among other things) "contract interference", because they had interfered with his Kamehacon contract. Except neither Vic nor his lawyers know the meaning of "contract interference" (it's just a phrase they've heard while watching lawyer shows on TV), and Vic's contract was honored by Kamehacon after Vic demanded that they honor it, and there's no evidence that any of Vic's lawsuit-targets had anything to do with his Kamehacon contract.
According to the incredibly brilliant tactician, even if a statement is true it can still be defamatory, so I think you might have a case here.
So yeah, remember that IndyWeek article Greg wrote? The comments are exactly what you'd expect.
Digging some of these new narratives --- Marchi and co. on the run from the police AND all their evidence had...has vanished.

Kevin spacey.
Edit: or that guy above.... I still need to watch that show.

Lol I feel bad because I can totally see it. The whole time I was watching the show it was in the back of my mind.Like you even need to ask.
You remember in early Yu-Gi-Oh! where the real life card game was only starting to get traction and the author was just making stuff up as he went along instead of keeping consistent with any real life set of rules?
That's tangential to the thread, I guess. Dunno why I thought of it, maybe just because it's about anime stuff, who knows

While I entirely got what you did. It also did make me think of this.
So that is a win win
Here's that Zero guy I was talking about earlier. Honestly he must hate dub VO's by this point after all he went through complaining about sub-elitists for the longest time.
He also does a lot of ad-hominem-ing towards peeps who talk back to him.
"KickVic is a hate group."
So says the guy whose profile literally used to say "I don't like people."
To think I used to follow this guy closely. I've completely lost faith in him

Who is this guy? Just some random dude, or a YouTuber that profits off of anime, or something else?
At any rate, it's not surprising to notice the difference between an actor's real personality and their stage one. In fact, it's a good thing if that distance exists. There's a genuine risk of actors losing their sense of identity to their characters; look at Peter Sellers, who once responded to "Are you using your real voice right now?" with "I don't know."
But if you're treating it as more surprising that an actress has a real voice that came out in a deposition than that a self-styled youth minister admitted - with a smirk, no less - to cheating on his fiancee with prostitutes in his own deposition, then you're completely lacking in perspective. If you're doing it while spouting standard talking points like the jelly bean thing, then you're not an individual who forms their own thoughts on the matter, you're just another member of a misogynistic hate group lending them your mouth because your own brain isn't using it.

I stopped reading after the first few tweets... yeah like Vic didn't sound completely different from his usual high pitched, preachy voice in his depo. Way to reach. I know I sound vastly different talking to strangers vs loved ones.
Watching the goalposts move from "Vic did NOTHING wrong and to insinuate otherwise is defamatory" -> "Okay, he did SOME things wrong but you're still defaming him" -> "So WHAT if he's a pedophile, calling him one is still defamation" has been quite the show.
I can only hope that some good comes out of this circus somehow, aside from the obvious long-overdue expulsion of Dick Lasagna from the VA scene. Beard and Blackface Dumbass are likely gonna walk away from this scot-free and with fully-lined pockets unfortunately; I've seen lawyers do far worse and get off with a mere slap on the wrist so I'm not gonna hold my breath for their disbarment or whatever.
If nothing else I hope Mignogna's victims get the closure and support they need following all this buffoonery; my heart goes out to each and every person who's has to endure nonstop harassment and toxicity for daring to speak out against a despicable man and his cult of personality.

Is it possible for Vic to be banned from events he that he goes to as a regular attendee? Just curious because he goes to Star Trek Las Vegas and I was thinking of going next year, but if his slimy ass is around I'd rather not.
At the very least they still have jobs and he doesn't.
I kinda hope the replacement VA for Broly is a bigger VA than Vic if only to rub it in his face.
They won't get closure from this because at worst (for Vic)Vic is just going to have to pay a lot of legal fees for the opposition and then get to walk away.

Already a triggered conVic in the comments for that picture didn't Mandy to know where her affidavit is.
They keep saying things like "pics or it didn't happen and then you give them a picture and they deny it anyways

I know. And video isn't accepted either. But somehow anything and everything uttered by drunk Youtube lawyers, or whatever the fuck Percy is, is instantly gospel.
What's absolutely tragic is that this is exactly the logic that was used by republicans to defend Brett Kavanaugh. "This person said they didn't recall X, that means they are saying that X didn't happen"
Needed the "[screams internally]" thing on it. Jesus Christ that's horrifying.
LOL good shit.
End of Vic Mignognion looking pretty good
It's a line read from a series called Ouran High School Host club. A series that in general is cute and funny but has a few odd lines such as that because the character Vic voices in the series is an over the top prince type.
full context of the scene from the anime
Not that context makes it any less creepy for Vic to be doing that line read with his young fans.
The girl doesn't want to drink something and Vic puts his lips up to the young girl's ears and says menacingly "why don't you drink from my mouth".
I need to wash my eyes, ears ... screw it, pour bleach in my brain right now.
Went looking for context and hey, Ouran High School Host Club's page on Tvtropes has Vic's character under the "harsher in highsight" section now.
I'm a little curious to know if he was prompted because a lot of women do romanticize this sort of dominance/possessiveness stuff in writing so maybe it's a popular scene, but either way, he doesn't have to nearly put his mouth in her ear to reference it - it doesn't even match up to the body language in the clip, it's just him acting creepy because he's a pedo.
Like, I'm flashing back to a thing where David Hayter responded to a voice actress from Metal Gear Awesome with a relevant quote from that flash animation ("Hotness I wanna bang you"), but he did it while sitting at a desk several feet away, and then followed immediately with "actually, no, I'm married..."

I really should have put my headphones in or turned the volume down before pressing play on that video.
