Matthew Lillard criticized the industry for prioritizing celebrities over voice actors in animation:
“The ability to carry a film, as the lead of a film with only a voice, is a power very few people have. The idea that they keep hiring crappy celebrities to carry huge films is killing us.”
my father and i started expressing very strong anti-zionist statements during lunch and he got so paranoid our phones would listen so he locked them up in a different room
No, no! It’s fine! It’s perfectly fine that no one told me about the screening of Mulholland Drive at the Hollywood Forever cemetery tonight! It’s totally fine! Doesn’t really sound like something I would enjoy, I mean it’s not like the weather right now is perfect to watch a movie, certainly not my favorite movie. And definitely not in a place I have dreamed about meeting my future husband. I mean, I suppose all my “friends” must have assumed I would know about this already and will be there. Perfectly reasonable assumption to make. It’s completely understandable! No, no, it’s fine! I’m not bitter at all I swear! I’m 44 years old for Christ’s sake. I’m not going to sit and sulk here like a child. But I will block everyone in my contact list
Hannah Einbinder bids farewell to Ava Daniels:
“ava, i used to think it was SO CORNY and super cringe when actors would talk about or to their characters as if they were real people, and i kinda still do, but for you, i don't care how this looks. yeah. im typing you a letter and posting it online for the world to see. that's how much my love for you outweighs my desire to seem "cool" or "mentally well." i'm so proud of who you've become but i always loved you. when you were young and headstrong and stubborn, you were always funny and sensitive and a total fox. i mean your body. wow. nice. ;) i don't feel like i have to say goodbye to you, ava. mostly because i have a lot of your clothes and wear something of yours maybe every day. (if anyone sees me in her shirt just keep it moving) but because your impact on me is eternal. i often ask myself, "what would ava do?" and often times the answer is she would say exactly what's on her mind and never back down from what she believes is right. also, two dinners. you would eat at like 5 and then at 9 again. you guide me more than you know. so it's not the end, ava daniels! you live forever in me, and hopefully some sort of box set, and also the fan fic, and also, probably, a life size cut out somewhere. i love you. thanks for everything.
AVA DANIELS FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!”
