50,000 Monkeys at 50,000 Typewriters Can't Be Wrong

the sea is a cruel mistress

  • Uncategorized

There are few things I look forward to as much as working on Teen Titans. It’s fun, it’s relatively easy, and it’s incredibly satisfying. I’ve had such a great time doing it, and I had such a great time when I voiced several characters for the Xbox port of Crimson Skies, I’ve been making a sacrifice to the voice over gods nighty, and wishing for more VO work.
Today, I get my wish. (Which is a good thing, because all those frozen weasels were getting expensive.)Walt Disney Television Animation came to my voice over agent last week, and requested me for a new show they’re doing called — get this — Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go!
It reads like a crazy anime-styled show for younger kids, and I get to play “Skurg” the evil leader of a Soturix 7, who wears armor of bone.
Heh. It’s going to be a lot of fun.
In Dancing Barefoot news, I watched it climb Amazon’s charts yesterday, peaking at 188 (!) around midnight when I went to bed. I hear that it went all the way up to 177 after I went to bed. Right now, it’s at 210, with an average review of 4.5 stars!!! I am deeply grateful to everyone who has made this happen.

    Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go?
    Sounds like Scott McCloud’s Monkey Town!

    On the Amazon.com page, it says that people who bought your book also bought stuff by Gibson, Heinlein and JMS. Not bad company, if you ask me.

    Cool, Wil’s becoming the Mark Hamill of Star Trek. Starts off as the inexperienced kid who gets lots of help from an older mentor, then stops making so many movies and does lots of voice work.

    Super-Monkeys are mentioned in RFC 3492.
    That is all.

    I wonder if the title for this section was a play on the title for Heinlein’s wonderful book “The Moon is a Harsh Mistress,” or whether that title is simply a play off of this phrasing. Hmm.

    Hey Wil,
    just finished the book. Love it. You have such and open style that pulls the reader along and gets them on you side right away.
    Your memory is amazing. I can’t remember details of my life, just events and emotions, not conversations, epecially what others were saying around me.
    I’d love to see a screenplay from you.
    Enjoy every minute of this. Time for basking.
    Cheers,
    Pablo

    So…does this mean…That I can possibly watch a program on TV every day and/or week that has Wil Wheaton in it that’s isn’t a rerun of something he did when he was a teenager? (which I still like watching anyway, but that’s besides the point) HUZZAH! that would make me one happy typing monkey, man!
