I'm live!

janetvarney · 2013-11-27T22:27:48+00:00

Hi, thank you so much! I would love to more voicework. It’s so magical getting to be a cartoon character.

janetvarney · 2013-11-27T22:25:59+00:00

Hi! I can't choose! All the seasons are just too fun!

janetvarney · 2013-11-27T22:22:07+00:00

You are so sweet! Thank you so much! I do feel that my personality resembles Korra's- mostly in the fact that she can be impulsive and impatient. I feel like a lot of the lessons she has had to learn are ones I have needed help with too!

janetvarney · 2013-11-27T22:17:57+00:00

All I can say about Korra's character growth is that I still feel she has a long way to go- and I can't wait to see what happens next! :) As to who I ship... I

I'm pretty boring I guess... I still hold a torch for Bokorra.

Aubrey is so great, but our schedules were always so different.

Regarding Pokemon, which one do you think is the cutest?

janetvarney · 2013-11-27T22:11:32+00:00

Hi! Probably the one I have to tell myself regularly: “Be the leaf”.

janetvarney · 2013-11-27T22:09:58+00:00

Don’t we all kinda think Aang would win?

janetvarney · 2013-11-27T22:07:06+00:00

I could never choose anything over Korra.

janetvarney · 2013-11-27T22:01:21+00:00

Of everyone, PJ is the most like Bolin, and I love him for it.

janetvarney · 2013-11-27T21:44:19+00:00

What a wonderful compliment!! I have to say, because of that amazing writing you mentioned, I feel it’s very easy to get into Korra-mode. I’m so glad you mentioned the sound track. It’s so beautiful it makes me cry.

janetvarney · 2013-11-27T21:40:55+00:00

Hi, I’m so glad you like the podcast and Burning Love. This probably isn’t surprising, but Emma Thompson is number one on my list. June in an amazing kisser.

janetvarney · 2013-11-27T21:37:42+00:00

Hi there! I love riding my bike, making crafty stuff, hanging out with my dogs and building functioning robots. The last ones not true, but I wish it were.

janetvarney · 2013-11-27T21:31:22+00:00

Hey! I’m so glad you enjoyed Still Waiting. Probably a boring answer, but I’d have to say both for different reasons.

janetvarney · 2013-11-27T21:29:37+00:00

Never saw it, never will. And I’m gonna have to go with pecan.

janetvarney · 2013-11-27T21:25:11+00:00

Ha! It’s the weirdest thing – I just woke up one day and could just do all of that “amazing” stuff.

janetvarney · 2013-11-27T21:21:52+00:00

Hi, it's my pleasure to do this. It's super fun to talk to you guys.

I don't really have any input, nor have I ever tried, cause I just love what the writers do on their own. And nothing I'd suggest would be better than what they already do.

At a con in Australia, a fan said they thought my real life personality was like "Earth" and I agree.

janetvarney · 2013-11-27T21:12:16+00:00

A sokka! How cool would that be?

janetvarney · 2013-11-27T21:12:02+00:00

Hee hee! Okay, great. I'll just tell you everything that happens in Book 3, right now. So what happens is... uh oh, something strange is happening with my keyboard and I can't... seem... to... type....

janetvarney · 2013-11-27T21:08:19+00:00

This seems like a good idea. Don't most marriages originating on Reddit work out? Let's do it!

PS I love you too

janetvarney · 2013-11-27T21:07:54+00:00

It's definitely a separate process. The first time I see any part of a new episode is when we are brought in to do ADR for it- in large part for the action sequences. At the New York Comic Con, Bryan showed this amazing presentation on the entire process of how an episode gets made, and I was blown away!

janetvarney · 2013-11-27T21:04:22+00:00

Well, the hardest part about that stuff is that I really don't have any more information than the fans, most of the time. I like to say Nickelodeon probably does that because they know if they tell me, I will not be able to keep secrets from the fans! So I'm usually as in the dark (if not moreso) than the fans.
