"Young Justice" News & Discussion Thread, Part 33 (Spoilers)

[the greenman]

All of this sounds reasonable to me, but we could all be wrong and Phantoms could debut in 2022.

It's always possible. Might even be as late as early December. I will repeat I just don't want this to be rushed in any way. With the way Greg had been posting lately, his and Brandon's work on the series might be winding down a little bit.

Weisman confirms speedsters cannont time travel without the aid of a time travel machine.

Jochi and Tolui were the names of Genghis Khan's sons in "Evolution".

At the end of Team Year 8, Traya Smith is 11 years old.

16 episodes are done, 6 in post, and 4 overseas being animated.

Guesses off the top of his head that episode 24 and 26 of Phantoms was the hardest to write.

I think he was referring to Outsiders here -- the person asking the question referred to season 3. Also, Greg Weisman mentioned in a recent Whelmed: The Young Justice Files interview that he wrote 426. Here, he states that he didn't write 424 or 426, so perhaps he was referring instead to 324 ("Into the Breach") and 326 ("Nevermore").

Thanks for the update. I don't know if October is feasible. At least that's certainly pushing it close. Though with that many episodes done, we should definitely be getting a trailer soon.

Can someone say Cosmic Treadmill ?

8/12: Perhaps they did try at one point to salvage Bart's time machine to make something a la the Cosmic Treadmill but gave up once it became apparent he was sticking around and/or a lack of sufficient tech.

8/13: Master timeline is at 612 pages now. (And Weisman now only has 98 questions left to answer)

It's getting big enough they may as well just publish it as a handbook or a DC Who's Who .

While talking about how me met Rich Fogel, Weisman mentioned "Shimmer & Shine writing staff (Stephanie Simpson, Dustin Ferrer, Kevin Hopps, Cisco Paredes, Andrew Blanchette and Rich), so when YJ started up again I tried to get everyone to write an episode for Season Three and/or Four. Stephanie and Dustin haven't had the time, but the rest have all pitched in for an episode or two. (Of course, Kevin was already a YJ writer.)"

So we might see Paredes return, he wrote "Exceptional Human Beings", Fogel, who wrote "Antisocial Pathologies", and Hopps wrote "True Heroes" for season 3. I think if Blanchette is writing season 4 this is his debut on YJ.

What is his writing credits?

Here's Andrew Blanchette's IMDb page. Hasn't written for many shows, Shimmer and Shine seems to be the only one he wrote multiple episodes for.

Okay, thanks. Now I'm certain I never would have heard of him. Just means we'll have to wait and see what he delivers.

I'm guessing the reason there hasn't been an episode from either Dustin Ferrer or Stephanie Simpson was from being busy with other shows. The former was busy with Esme And Roy (which she co-created) and the latter is busy with Hilda (which she co-created).

 

[RoyalRubble]

I'm guessing Weisman realizes what Blanchette would be capable of writing if he wanted to bring him on the Young Justice crew.

Hmm. Well, some of those answers have been given to us before (but question was asked over a year ago). I'm curious which TT actors lost out to what parts.

The likely candidates would be a small group; Khary Payton (he already is doing so many roles anyway), Ashley Johnson, T'keyan Crystal Kemah (Karen/Bumblebee), Scott Menville, Michael Rosenbaum (Kid Flash), and Mike Erwin (Speedy).

Well, Payton & Rosenbaum just seem to stay busy anyway (besides price-wise probably costly). That also goes for T'keyan Crystal Kemah and Scott Menville, who are also vets in the industry. Hyden Walch is already doing YJ too.

Very insightful .

Greg wanting to use Zehra Fazal from the start was cool .

I'm glad Zeno was really happy to get to play Cyborg .

I guess they're fine with voice reprisals if they remember how good someone was in a previous role...I guess Grey Griffin is also just like default Lois Lane .

That's kind of unexpected that upper management were the ones insistent on not using VA's from the Teen Titans cartoons...I forgot Greg worked with Cipes on WITCH .

I'm not. I think they're the same ones who didn't think fans would differentiate if multiple representations of an IP were in media at the same time.

Zehra Fazal was a decent Halo. She was also a decent Lian. But I think this lady played a few too many roles. Am I the only one who thought her Windfall (the one with the cockney accent) was terrible?
