Attention northeast United States Tokusatsu fans!

The voice behind one of the creepiest villains of our childhoods, and probably the best villain created for a live-action kids show, Robert Axelrod, aka Lord Zedd of Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers, will be in attendance at this year’s ICON 31 convention, held in Stony Brook, NY, March 30th – April 1st.

If you’re in the northeast United States, check out ICON 31 and take the chance to meet an icon of American Tokusatsu!

Hot on the heels of the widely publicized Megaupload shut down last week by the United States Government, FileSonic has recently put on their website the following message:

All sharing functionality on FileSonic is now disabled. Our service can only be used to upload and retrieve files that you have uploaded personally.

As we are all aware, those of us who do not use Torrents rely on such services like Megaupload and FileSonic for our Fan Subs. The conspiracy theories are running rampant – literally a DAY after major websites like Wikipedia and Google displayed their public protest of the contraversial SOPA and PIPA] bills in the Congress and Senate of the United States, Megaupload was shut down, and now days later, FileSonic basically makes their website worthless.

This makes the future of Fan Subs a little darker. What do you think of what’s going on? Discuss it all here (yes it’s political but we’re looking past that rule on our forums because this discussion effects everyone).
