Jason Biggs getting targted by parents ?

[changepas39]

That is ridiculous!

[TurtleMaster4]

i'm not even going to bother reading the artical, I've heard too much about it, and posted my comments on other threads, they just need to let it go.

[BubblyShell22]

He should either delete his account or the posts he made on said account.

[Xav]

He did delete the posts. But he has made other posts since then.

[BubblyShell22]

Yeah, and that's the problem. He's not learning from this.

[Jephael]

I guess from an acting standpoint Biggs figures if worse comes to worse and he gets canned by Nickelodeon, he can always find a better gig elsewhere like Charlie Sheen did a year ago. The problem is he doesn't realize how it'll effect the fans if that does happen.

I think people are still over reacting to this like I said the last time this topic had a thread. The best way for it to go away is to quit talking about it. Yet if you do that then what can you be offended about?

yeah...parents need to lighten the hell up...

We would have also excepted:


And what about George Carlin's roles in Cars, Happily N'Ever After, Tarzan 2, and Shining Time Station.

SELECTIVE OUTRAGE!!!!

Nice.

For what it's worth, I don't have a contract, I'm on a handshake agreement that can be terminated at any time. Not a very big company. But there are still plenty of guys who would jump to take my spot if for any reason I wasn't there, and part of the deal is that whenever I say or do anything as "Rikki Roxx", even on FB or youtube or whatever, it is subject to public scrutiny, and my words/actions can be seen as coming from "the company", so I have to follow certain standards. I've been scolded for uploading certain match videos to YouTube, saying certain things on my Wall that weren't even wrestling-related, and even for saying good things about wrestlers/wrestling companies that I happen to be on good terms with BUT are "competition". It doesn't matter if me and Joe Blow are friends outside of work, if he works for a company that is competing with us, I'm "not supposed" to say good things about him or his company in a public forum, or I could get fired.

Seems stupid. Kind of is. But I always "got it". You cannot both be an entertainer AND have total freedom of speech or activity. It's why when actors etc. complain about how they have no privacy anymore I just laugh. Everyone wants to be "on stage", you actually get to be, and you can't act how "normal" people act anymore. Biggs knows that, obviously don't care because, as someone else said, he can get another gig in a heartbeat.

And I don't recall seeing Malkin explicitly say "boycott Nick/boycott the show", but it's implicit. By saying things like she's acting like a "responsible parent" and "saying no to filth" and "no more Nick for MY kids", she's implying that other parents who don't do the same are irresponsible, which calls for a boycott without actually *saying* so. Gotta read between the lines sometimes.

[BubblyShell22]

And yet, there are other shows on Nick that don't even have Biggs on them, so by saying she's boycotting Nick, she's boycotting the other shows that have no relation to Jason Biggs at all, which is honestly the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

(The following post is a joke.)

Everyone knows there is only one answer: Shredder has to pwn Leo in episode 3. This will save Nickelodeon a lot of money, as they won't have to pay a voice actor for Leonardo. As for the already created episodes, Leonardo can be digitally edited out of them, and it can be explained later that the turtles were in a delusion and thought he was still there, when in reality Shredder pwned him. So there's the answer. Either that or use subtitles when Leo talks and mute his voice. Another idea is to scrap the new show altogether and show re-runs of the 1980s cartoon. The current voice actors for the show, not including Jason, could come in and dub over the old voices, except for Raph since he's already the voice of the new Donnie. Better yet..... lets get in a time machine and hire another voice actor, perhaps Michael Bay. He doesn't do voice work does he? Well, maybe it is time for him to start.

Ugh. I do so despise scandalmongers. Especially conservative Christian ones.

(The following post is a joke.)

Also, notice in the quote you quoted. She puts her "foot" down. Shredder is the leader of the "foot." Coincidence? I don't think so. I have a feeling that Rorschach from the Watchmen and Inspector Gadget are already investigating this, and who knows, a pup named Scooby-Doo may also get involved.

[Cowabunga Carl]

Still believe this is a non issue. So we are going to start censoring what people say because it offends others, don't see what can go wrong with that. Let's all just move on. Don't give this more attention and power then it already has.

[Toonami Tom]

On a serious note, I think Nickelodeon knew about Jason's personality before they hired him. So this probably isn't a big deal for Nickelodeon, unless a lot of people start boycotting the turtles series.

I do think that Jason's comments on his Twitter page are disgusting and hateful though. I don't know what he is like in real life, but I am offended by some of his comments.

I'm still going to watch the turtles series though. Charles Manson could voice a turtle and I might still watch, because I like the turtles (not really).

Nickelodeon should probably...... never mind, I'm not going to suggest that Nickelodeon hire a new voice actor for Leonardo. Oh wait, I just did.

Hmmm..... actually, I don't care. It is just a cartoon. If Nickelodeon wants to replace all the turtles with celebrities from R rated movies, then that is up to Nickelodeon. It doesn't mean I have to watch it though. Whatever.

[Toonami Tom]

So can somebody lock this thread? Jason Biggs voices Leonardo. I'm not happy about it, I wish somebody else voiced Leonardo. Nothing can be done about it, so we (I) need to get over it. Move on, think about something else. Watch the show or don't, nobody cares, because it is just a cartoon.

Why would you ask for the thread to be locked right before making that statement? It's almost as if you don't want to be ridiculed for expressing your opinion. Everybody had the right to make their viewpoint known, and as long as we're not going at each other's throats like last time this thread should be kept open.

[Toonami Tom]

When the ridicule begins it is not fun to be on this website. The conversation is also not really leading anywhere. I do think that Mr. Biggs is bringing bad publicity upon Nickelodeon and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles brand. My favorite brand of all "superhero" related themes. It doesn't matter what I think though, not on the topic of the turtles cartoons. As far as I'm concerned, the best days for being a turtles fan are over. In combination with this, it was rumored the turtles were going to be transformed into "aliens" for a movie. I don't know, I'm not really making sense at this point. Oh well.

Nobody even cares that Biggs is doing this except helicopter parents and internet fanboy nerds.

Target audience has no clue who Biggs is. Ask my nephew who Jason Biggs is....blank stare. He knows who LEONARDO is. The cartoon character on the show isn't making lewd comments.

Parents need to stop policing other people and start taking responsibility for raising their kid. Don't want your kid cursing? Take responsibility and teach them not to curse and tell them why. Don't whine that people curse in public and your kid heard it.

Did I really just read a comment on this that I agree with whole-heartedly yet again? *rubs eyes* ...I did, I did! Maybe there's hope for people yet.

All kidding aside, what you said, to the 10th degree.
