Title: Celebrity Voice Actors
Post by: NewOrder on January 25, 2016, 02:03:45 PM
Throughout the years there have been a few celebrity VAs that portrayed guest characters in some of the sequels, here's a list of the ones I could find:

Nancy Cartwright (Dana, in LBT VI)
Kris Kristofferson (Doc, in LBT VI)
Michael York (Pterano, LBT VII)
Robert Guillaume (Mr. Thicknose, LBT VIII)
Kiefer Sutherland (Bron, LBT X)
James Garner (Pat, LBT X)
Bernadette Peters (Sue, LBT X)
Camryn Manheim (Tria, LBT XI)
Michael Clarke Duncan (Big Daddy, LBT XI)
Sandra Oh (Doofah, LBT XIII)
Cuba Gooding Jr. (Loofah, LBT XIII)
Reba McEntire (Etta, LBT XIV)
Damon Wayans Junior (Wildarms, LBT XIV)

Which one is your favourite? Which ones did I miss?

Thanks to somerandomfangirl for pointing out that Nancy Cartwright (the voice of Bart Simpson) was Dana's VA.

You missed Carmyn Manheim, the voice of Tria in LBT 11 and 12.

Guarantee the majority will say Michael York lol

Dana's hardly a mention really.
Kristofferson was really convincing in Saurus Rock.
Think everyone loves York in Cold Fire
I dunno about others but Guillaume in Freeze was quite memorable.
I really liked how Sutherland spoke in Migration. Garner was great choice for the character but he's a little strange for my taste.

Always initially thought Duncan was strange in LBT 11. Deep-voiced black guy speaking for a tiny daddy longneck but it works and not sure who else I could imagine.
As for Samdra Oh and Cuba Gooding Jr., I dunno... good choices for what the characters really were, but Oh could easily get annoying. Cuba Gooding Jr. was a pretty good choice though

I'm sure everyone's a celebrity in the right light lol. The dearly departed, the person who did voice for uh Skitter, Rocky, whoever was the girl, geez basically any character in the series probably has things going for them.

I didn't know if she was considered enough of a celebrity. Her face is familiar to me, but I can't quite name any of her work.

Still, added.

My favorite is Kiefer Sutherland as Bron. His voice has always been epic and hearing it in TLBT movie was such a privilege.

As someone who's seen "The Lost Boys" a million times, I find his voice easily recognizable.

Honestly, I think all of the celebrity VAs were good and suited their parts well. Nothing I can really complain about.

Though all of the celebrity guest stars in LBT have done a great job, Michael York probably gets the most points from me. Pterano couldn't have been half as memorable without his dramatic voice! :DD

I will say, though, that I have mixed feelings on celebs appearing in LBT due to how it impairs the series's ability to bring characters back...or at least to bring them back with their original voices. Case in point: Mr. Thicknose. :rolleyes

Yep! Heh...I recall him guest starring in a Magic School Bus episode I saw when I was a kid, too, but somehow I didn't make the connection between his Magic School Bus character and Pterano until I was almost an adult! :p

York has an amazing voice, but it doesn’t work for villians very easily lol

One voice that was not in this list was Jim Cummings as Sierra (TLBT VII).

But other than that, I think the best celebrity voice in the list was Michael York as Pterano (TLBT VII) because like other people said, he does a good job being dramatic for his character and his, you know, British voice.

Tough call between Michael York and Kiefer Sutherland, but I'm gonna have to go with Kiefer Sutherland.  :bronGoodJob

I'm gonna say Michael Clarke Duncan, because of his performance in The Green Mile.

Michael York is Spaceballs not Austin Powers to me though.

I'm sure Jude would have become a celebrity (in voice acting at least) in the 1990s and beyond.
