WIL WHEATON dot NET: 1.5

You don't say? Well congratulations.We will all look forward to it.

First post \m/ \m/

Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go!

Man, that's awesome. With a name like that you can't go wrong. Hell, with a name like that I might have to watch it, 7-year-olds be damned!

I gave it 5 Starts, so what Basta** only gave it 4?!!!

Cool. I want to do VO's, too! And I want to buy your book, but haven't had the opportunity, yet. Sure, technically it's your "supporters" who made the book sales possible, but where would we be if you'd never written it? I guess it's a circular relationship. Your coolness inspires us to think you are cool.

Okay, looks like I'll have to swallow my pride (or whatever the hell it is) and actually order the book from Amazon. I do prefer to patronize my local independent bookstores, but if they won't carry the damn book, that's their problem. (I would've loved to have read a selection for my audition yesterday...ah well...)

And now I've got to definitely get moved out of the in-laws so the spouse and I can get my freakin' cable back! (Mental note to nag spouse at least once daily...)

Congrats on the show and DB climing the charts...but the title of that TV show sounds like something from that Most Extreme Elimination Challenge show on Spike (see, girls *do* watch Spike for something other than TNG!).

Congrats, that's awesome!
So you're a regular on the show? You're going to be getting a regular paycheck again?

holy crap. you did stuff for crimson skies?! i LOVE that game! and Teen Titans IS an awesome show, i was disappointed when i missed the show. -_- i always tend to miss the really GOOD stuff...oh well. rock out, Wil!

Major congrats! I look forward to seeing Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go! in the near future. Kudos to you, aqualad!

ps - you said nighty... teehee

Working, working, working Uncle Willie! Kudos Wil, glad to hear you're getting more voice work. I always look forward to an Aqualad episode of Teen Titans, and now I guess I'll have a good reason to watch the Disney Channel, too. Ohy, I despise Disney. But if it's cool for Uncle Willie, it's cool for me...

It's awesome that you get to do yet another bad guy character. Those are always fun, I'd guess. You get to be the polar opposite of yourself and totally ham it up with the evil badness mojo vibe thing (did that make sense?).

Finally got my copy of Dancing Barefoot. I read it in one night while I was at work. Let me just say this about it: IT'S THE SHIZNIT! Great storytelling, Wil! Can't wait for JAG...

Which voices did you do in Crimson Skies? I recently finished it, but if I know which voices to listen for (they're all excellent) it may be worth playing through again...

If praying to your voice over gods nighty works, try praying to Anne's...

SUPER KARATE MONKEY DEATH CAR!

If praying to your voice over gods nightly works,
Maybe we should all start praying to the WIL WHEATON AUDIO BLOG gods !
(just a small hint)

hunh. Wil, you forgot an apostrophe:

"a sacrifice to the voice over gods nighty"

should be

"a sacrifice to the voice over gods' nighty"

That was supposed to be "nightLy," but nighty is much funnier, isn't it?

1. My daughter is obsessed with the teen titans. :)

2. Congratulations on dancing barefoot. You are a funny and sharp writer. It's well deserved.

Man, I am going to be walking around all day saying "Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go!" all day now.

Skurg is a great evil leader name.

Congrats on everything, Wil!

Good things just keep happening for you dude.
Congrats!

Did you notice that readers who liked you as an author also liked reading William Gibson?
I'd say it's quite an honour to be associated with Gibson...

Well I don't know who rated it 4, but it's got a 5* from me! Read the second half last night and gotta say "Congrats!" Wil, great book!

Chris.

I've been boycotting Amazon since forever - forgot why I even started now.... some patent on something stupid way back...

Anyway - I'm ordering a copy tomorrow from Amazon... looks like hell finally froze over :)

so....are you going to have copies at penguicon, or do i have to go to amazon??????????????

Super monkey robot clone cool force? Just about my favorite words in the langauge. Go, monkey boy! Go Skurg!

Congratulations on the new show. The title is way too long for any 7 year old to remember but I'm sure you will be outstanding. I haven't seen Teen Titans but one of these days I may come across it while surfing the channels. The book was so fabulous, I have read the stories over and over. I plan to pass it on to my friends.

Disney, eh? Sounds pretty cool...hopefully, you could come do some work at the east coast "house of mouse" and maybe hit a few cons in the area *cough* =P

Wil:

"but nighty is much funnier, isn't it?" -ww

yes, and I'm glad you're choosing to leave it that way. although, come to think of it, I think it's spelled nightie, not nighty, but that may be my Canadian bias showing.

Now about that apostrophe... :)

After reading the subtle prompting from "Grif" regarding Wil's audblog, which I had never listened to, ... I listened to a few selections and was Utterly Delighted! *starts making sacrifices to the audblog god's nightie. ;-)

VO's are awesome. But did you ever get that job on that other television show?

Congrats to you Wil! You deserve this success, and YOU made it happen. The rest of us are just smart enough to recognize talent when we see it. I can't wait for Just A Geek!

Wil,

Hope you're wearin' the green today. And that note from William "F" Shatner, you ought to get it framed. Even though he treated you like dirt
its still a collectible. I'll be drinkin' a green beer in your honor tonight. Happy St. Paddy's day.

Your friend,
Freeman McG...

Are you making that name up?

"Super Robot Team Monkey Hyperforce Go" sounds
like it came out of the mind of Wil Wheaton!!

..."GO MONKEY BOY!!"

Wil Wheaton in Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go!

You know, those words fit together a little too well.

Well, I ordered my copy back on 03/11, and Amazon just told be that's unavailable and is backordered for a couple weeks. If that's not a sign of sucess, I do not know what is. Congrat's, Wil, and i look forward to reading it some day...

Congrats on the show, cant wait to see it. And big congrats on the book sales via amazon. Now im eagerly anticipating the time i can place my order for Just A Geek. I would like to place my advanced order now! please:-)

I love how your book is paired with Neil Gaimon's 'Neverwhere' in the "better together" category. How do you like them apples?

Something else cool about Super Robot Monkey Team Ultra Force Go - the guy that does the voice for Beast Boy, Greg Cipes, is also doing VO for SRMTUFG.

1/8 cool point for me! :)

I just looked at your book on Amazon.

5 stars. #292.

When I get paid, I shall attempt to buy your book... unless you want to buy one for me.

"Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go!"
ohmigoodnesswil. that's the best show name that's ever happened to you. there's another book chapter title for sure.

i can just imagine you intoning it with whooshy thx type sounds backing you up.

wil gets to be the bad guy.......

Booyeah! Here's looking forward to the day when the name Wil Weaton will lord over those not as talented, like Jim Cummings or Frank Welker.

Of course, Joe Alaskey will still have to dealt with, but Wil has MANY friends. ;)

I found your Dancing Barefoot book today in a little book shop in Sweden. How cool is that? :)

SUPER ROBOT MONKEYS???!

d00d!

Congrats. on the show Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce GO.

DB is right now ranked # 199 at Amazon.

A brief dip occurred while Wil's Possee caught some shut-eye overnight (or put in time at their jobs), I imagine.

Here's another chance to break through the 177 level. Fuel The Frenzy - BUY TODAY!

I can't decide what is funnier: Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go, or Frozen Weasels. Frozen Weasels sounds like a band name. As an acronym though SRMTHFG has them both beat.

As an aside, anyone who has some kind of objection to Amazon could buy Dancing Barefoot at Powells.com. They were an early supporter of Wil's work.

Congrats on the VO nighty sacrifices. Or should that be VS?

I saw your ranking at #175 about 3am PST.

I know we all wanna be a part of getting Dancing Barefoot to it's eventual #1, but if any of ya really hate Amazon, or you can't stand backorders... Barnes and Noble [www.bn.com] has it. I just received mine... can't wait to crack it open tonight.

Wil's hit the top 50 on the bestseller's list at amazon.ca.

Woo! Congrats!!! I've always wondered...to do VO work do you have to have a singing voice? I've always gotten compliments on my voice but I couldn't carry a tune in a bucket. Also, how much acting experience/talent do you need? I'd love to try something like that but I'm not sure if I'm even a good candidate for it.

I gave your book 5 stars too, and hopefully my fave auntie will as well.

I just got Dancing Barefoot from Amazon today...I started reading it in my local coffee shop earlier this afternoon and am about halfway through. Thus far I find it endearing and unpretentious and honest...the bit about William Shatner brought me to tears. I think you are a good heart, and I'm sorry Shatner was an unbearable prick to you! Hugs and kisses and congrats.

Wil, Wil, Wil, That is just too awesome, on both news fronts. I will definitely be watching SRMTHG, That's right people, I also enjoy Kim Possible, so there. :) Also, I'm nearly done Dancing Barefoot, I'm so glad that I bought it. It rawkes. Also, You will let us in on a future in front of the camera audition right? Pleassssseeeeeeee.

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.

Bahaha! Great title for a show. Congrats on the new gig!

...Skurg. I love it. ^.^

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

Good news on the book front. I have been meaning to buy it for ages but for one reason or another I haven't so reading the footnote to this post I thought heck get on Amazon and do it. So I have and now I await its delivery with baited breath :)

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!

Who's voice do you play in Teen Titans. I'm editor for Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go!and I must know who you are!
