Some personal news and accomplishments (I am Lance Slashblade in Inside Out 2!)
Ойындар
One of my bucket list goals when I moved to LA to pursue acting and voice acting was to be in a Pixar movie one day. Like many of you, I grew up watching them. It seemed like such a pipedream... until I auditioned for and landed the role of Lance Slashblade in Pixar's Inside Out 2. From being featured at Summer Game Fest to attending the World Premiere to the movie coming out soon, the last few days have been a bit of a whirlwind and I hope you won't mind me venting some of the joy I've been feeling lately.

Getting a Pixar job is crazy. Usually they try and go with well known celebrities to do the voices. Congratulations my guy. You're moving up in the world.

he doing good yeah i saw him on a panel with vas once where 1 guy said something to roaring applause, then when yong added to it the room went instantly quiet to hear him better. it was amazing
Still remember your announcement saying you were moving to move forward with your VA career, that was before I even knew you were a VA. First hearing your work as Sanji and Homelander in Death Battle, then hearing you as Pucci. Now you’re working with Disney man, impressive to say the least

That 'power move' is a classic. Shows the writers really know gaming.

They also know teenage girls, having a melodramatic, sword-wielding pretty boy from a video game like Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts as her first crush is very relatable.
Congrats Yong! Thank you for sharing this with us. This is really motivational for anyone striving to accomplish their goals. Wishing you all the best for your future endeavors!

Holy shit... Whatever your opinion is of current Pixar, getting to be in a film by them is still impressive... Toy Story (the original three movies) are within my top 10 for favorite animated movies for a reason.

@@LucasCarter2 Ok, the part about him being a bad voice actor is hard to debate. See Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth for the reason why. It's still interesting to see other people's thoughts on topics related to gaming media and there's always room for improvement. If you think he's a bad journalist/actor, congrats; you have an opinion. Whether or not people agree with you is up for debate. (Personally, I think for LAD, while he does try, he was miscast because he sounds way too young for a man who's supposed to be in his 50s and the role should've gone to the original VA, Darryl Kurylo.) Also, beyond the VA connection, what does any of what u just said have to do with Pixar? Frankly, if I'd found out I was getting cast in a movie from them, I'd be estactic, if somewhat apprehensive. Mainly due to some of their recent movies being...less than stellar which is something I'm not gonna deny. (I'm also gonna note that both of your comments were liked within quick succession of each other which means either you've got a die hard fan or you like your own comments, both of which are funny...)

@@tomgu2285 True, can't deny that. Even as someone who hasn't watched the first one, Pixar's movies usually make good on their money. Honestly, if this turns out to be a flop, I'll be surprised. Please note: This is someone who's disappointed in current Pixar's business decisions yet is still nostalgic for their movies.

Congrats a million YongYea! Seeing Geoff Keighley shout you out at the Game Awards was crazy. Can’t believe it’s only been 4.5 years. Keep it up!!
Dude. Hats off to you, my man!! As much as I questioned Disney and Geoff's decision to show a distinctly non-game movie trailer at a video game event being SGF, it was a real pleasant shock to see him shout you out in the audience. Congratulations on your success!!! I think you've earned it!
Saw you at Summer fest and was like "yong! My dude!" Congrats on all these voice acting spots and appearances!
I'm really happy for you Yong. Seeing you land these big roles from JoJo, Yakuza, to a Pixar movie its great to see you put in the work and earn those opportunities. Congrats on your role and good luck on the next audition. PS don't forget about us or your great game coverage.
From starting to watch your channel after TotalBiscuit's untimely passing, to seeing you pursue your dreams into VA and now finally being in a pixar movie. It's been incredible watching your career progress, and I'm glad you've found such success! Here's to many more in the future.

Man. TB... I'm gonna miss that man. I'm sure TB would be proud of Yong if they met. Especially with all the roles he has had. Personally loved his work in the Sword Art Online movie!! :D
Congrats YongYea, I'm one of your silent daily viewers but for this I must say I'm absolutely happy for you and tis truly inspirational!
I never watched Inside Out 1, just never looked that interesting to me like most other Pixar movies do that I love like Wall-E, Toy Story & Incredibles to name a few of my favorites. Inside Out 2 also hasn't peaked my interest either same as the first movie BUT finding out that you're voicing a character in IO2, my brother & I will both go to the theater to watch it to show our support for you Yong. Not only that but voicing a Persona game as well? A Disney-Pixar film AND a Persona game? Holy Crap dude. Massive Heartfelt Congrats on these major accomplishments Yong, you 110% deserve your success my friend👏👏👏👏👏

You got there because you put in the work, the time and dedication. You are so passionate when it comes to giving us these videos about an industry you are very caring for, so Pixar saw that and definitely made the right choice. I'm gunning to go see that movie and cannot wait to hear you some more! Congratulations!
Congrats Yong this might take off, big leaps ahead.
I’m so happy for you, brother. I’ve been following you for years and seeing you have this success is heartwarming.
I reacted to you being introduced at SGF like you were a big game announcement 😂. I mean, dude, Pixar?! Freakin' PIXAR!!?? I'm so happy for you. Looking forward to seeing the movie and congratulations!
Can't believe you got a Pixar role. Congrats man. I'm seeing the movie this Friday so I'll look forward to seeing/hearing you.
Congrats. The movie is a success and the crowd in my theatre laughed at your lines.
Congratulations Yong, seeing this live was a great moment knowing your journey. Let's hope for more great things in the future.
Unbelievable journey! I remember watching you in the hype leading to MGSV and to see you now in a major animated film is insane!! Stoked for you! All your hard work and dedication truly paid off, congratulations Yong
It's always nice to see you doing well in your professional career, keep up!
That’s awesome man keep it up. !! That’s a big step forward
Congrats Mr Yong! Your dreams are becoming a reality and this is just the beginning! Keep chasing them! ❤
Absolutely amazing accomplishment! Congratulations on getting such a big role!
It's a lot better than your Yakuza role in my opinion. No slight on that, cause even though i didnt enjoy it personally, you're putting yourself out there and i gotta respect it.
My wife and I were looking forward to seeing this already and now even more so. Congratulations Yong!
We're proud of you Yong! Keep it up, you're going places!
I've seen you working super hard to make your dreams a reality. You deserve every good thing that's been coming your way for sure and I'm super happy to see you happy! :) Congratulations and thank you for sharing your happiness with us~
Awesome. It has been great watching all your hardwork and dedication over the years pay off. And I know there is so much more to come.
I think it looked hella cool, but found it EXTREMELY insulting and disrespectful how they just cut you off at the game festival to show some greedy company's garbage live service again :/

F****** AWESOME!!! WEll done mate, that's brilliant to see and seriously, what an awesome overdramatic performance, hilarious. Hopefully you get many more gigs.
You met kojima in the restroom, and now you're in a Pixar film what-a-journey.🎉🎉🎉🎉
It's amazing seeing your career progress like this. You're truly in the big 3 of youtubers turned voice actors along side Songwon Cho and Giani Matragrano.
I remember when you still had your glasses and hadn't moved to LA yet. Congratulations. You worked hard for it.
I love that even after getting a lot of big roles, he stills doing news :)
With you voicing kiryu I thought that was pretty big but damn, voicing a character in a Disney/Pixar movie is massive. You deserve it!
Just came back from watching it and yeah you nailed it. Funny character and really unique animation style. Was pleasantly surprised one of my fave video game journalists was the one behind it.
From metal gear breakdowns, to the wet hand shake with Kojima and now a character in a Disney movie? Couldn’t have happened to a more deserving creator, I find it extremely commendable that you haven’t sold out at all and you still keep this channel updated with all the news. When I’m assuming pursuing voice acting is way more lucrative. Look forward to seeing you in the movie!
Regardless of my personal opinions about Disney, I'm happy for you man. Landing a Pixar movie VA/VO spot is huge. I hope this helps boost your VA/VO career into the stratosphere because you've got a great voice for VA/VO. Congrats Yong Yea, here's to hopefully more large VA/VO opportunities in the future. 🥂
Been following you for years. Glad to see your career hitting some cool milestones. Very very very cool, my dude. My kids are going to love your character!
Congratulations! Just saw the movie and you were great. Lance Slashblade!
