Line 36:
* '''[[Ed Asner]]'''
** Ed Asner, who upon entering the field of voice acting has managed to appear in ''[[Freakazoid!]]'', ''[[The Boondocks]]'', ''[[Batman: The Animated Series|Batman the Animated Series]]'', ''[[Spider-Man: The Animated Series|Spider-Man the Animated Series]]'', ''[[Gargoyles]]'', ''[[Captain Planet and the Planeteers]]'', and ''[[Jonny Quest: The Real Adventures|Jonny Quest the Real Adventures]]'', all essentially voicing the exact same character: Ed Asner.
** ...and Granny Goodness in ''[[Justice League (animation)|Justice League]]''. Who's '''still''' essentially Ed Asner.
** And now [[Pixar]]'s ''[[Up (animation)|Up]]''.
Line 171:
** He's also done multiple roles in the ''[[Ratchet and Clank]]'' games.
*** This Troper couldn't help but laugh when he heard the Captain Qwark vidcomic narrator use the same voice as Medivh, the Last Prophet from Warcraft 3.
** He's also in the two-part first episode of ''[[Star Trek: The
** Don't forget he's our favorite man of action/coma victim Duke in ''[[G.I. Joe]]''.
** And Bruce Banner from the 80's Incredible Hulk cartoon.
Line 184:
* '''[[Jeff Bennett]]'''
** This guy is in goddamn everything. Among his many credits are ''[[The Batman]]'', ''[[Dave the Barbarian]]'', ''[[Freakazoid!]]'', ''[[Gargoyles]]'', ''[[Johnny Bravo]]'', and ''[[The Spectacular Spider-Man]]''. In ''[[Gargoyles]]'' alone This Troper is fairly confident he played just about every incidental character that wasn't a woman.
*** To make things a bit clearer, this is the guy who voices [[Gargoyles|Brooklyn, Owen Burnett]], [[Batman: The Brave And The Bold|The Joker]], [[The Spectacular Spider-Man|Montana/ Shocker]], [[Johnny Bravo]], [[Flap Jack|Peppermint Larry]], [[Transformers Animated|Prowl]], [[Ben 10: Alien Force|Azmuth, Ghostfreak]], and even "Massa Colonel" Lynchwater from '''[[The Boondocks|The fucking Boondocks]]'''! And [[Candle Jack]], too.
** And ''Kyle freaking Katarn'' in [[Star Wars: Dark Forces|Jedi Outcast]].
Line 201:
** Jodi Benson also voiced Millenia in the RPG ''[[Grandia II]]'': A ''sassy'' (and demonic) redhead with a taste for men.
** She even has a memorable cameo in ''[[Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind]]''
** And she's Tour Guide Barbie in ''[[Toy Story (franchise)|Toy Story]] 2'' (who, in the obligatory gag-reel outtakes at the end, complains about having to be smiling and perky all the time).
*** And, by extension, Barbie in ''Toy Story 3''.
** She was also Tula in ''[[The Pirates of Dark Water]]''.
Line 223:
* '''[[Brian Blessed]]!'''
** The game may not have been great, and the actor could've been missed due to his uncharacteristic [[Large Ham|un-hammy]] performance; but the Admiral in ''[[Warhammer
** The villianous Clayton in Disney's ''[[Tarzan (Disney film)|Tarzan]]'' is '''''BLESSED'''''-- as is the Tarzan yell, as Tarzan's regular voice actor couldn't do it vigorously enough!
** '''''BLESSED''''' voices [[Star Wars|Boss Nass]], too!
Line 241:
** Steve Blum is the voice for Captain Bartlett in ''Ace Combat 5''. So, essentially, you're flying wingman for [[Cowboy Bebop|Spike Spiegel]]...
** He's also in a number of anime series (I have ID'd a naval officer in ''[[Ghost in the Shell]]'' and a random merc in Anime/''[[Trigun]]'') and as the commander in ''[[Company of Heroes]]'' and ''[[Star Wars]]: [[Empire At War]]''. A quick browse of his IMDB page shows that he has been rather busy over the years...
*** It's a rarity these days to find an anime or game without Blum's voice acting, that's how prolific he is. Off the top of my head, he also voices at least 5 characters in the ''[[.hack]]'' games (both series) and Daelan Red Tiger in the original ''[[Neverwinter Nights]]'' campaign. She also did a facepalm upon recognizing him as the voice of Wolverine in the original ''[[X
*** [[Dawn of War|"One chance is all I need."]]
** I, out of nostalgia, popped in the original ''[[Rugrats]]'' game for the [[PS 1]] when my friends came over. When I was playing the final level as Reptar, the reporter voiceover sounded oddly familiar. Checked the credits, saw Steve Blum, laughter ensued.
Line 569:
* '''William Daniels'''
** William Daniels, best known to tropers below a certain age as Mr. Feeney on ''[[Boy Meets World]]'' and to tropers above a certain age as Dr. Craig on ''[[St. Elsewhere]]'' was not credited for his role as the voice of KITT in ''[[Knight Rider]]''. I didn't make the connection until hearing him in the even earlier ''[[1776]]''.
* '''[[Keith David]]'''
Line 592:
* '''Melissa Davis'''
** Her most famous role? [[Pani Poni Dash!|A certain so-called boring girl called Kurumi Momose]].
** She voices the girl of the Illusionary World in [[Clannad (visual novel)|Clannad]], as well as...Botan. No, really.
** [[Kanon|She would also slay invisible demons with a samurai sword]] and be involved in missions with [[Devil May Cry|Dante]] (in the anime, anyways).
** She doesn't speak often as [[Angel Beats!|Shiina]], but she made the infamous scene from the OVA work just as well as the Japanese by making her more moe with a small laugh!
Line 641:
** And [[The Weekenders|Lor]]
** A REALLY [[Complete Monster|monstrous]] asari businesswoman in ''[[Mass Effect]]'' and its sequel.
** Nova and every Banshee in ''[[
** The female Wizard in ''[[Diablo III]]'', the fact that her portrait looks like Azula definitely helps too.
Line 673:
* Not to mention, [[The Joker]] in ''[[Batman: Under the Red Hood]]''.
* Rico in ''[[The Penguins of Madagascar]]''.
* Juggernaut from ''[[X
* If you can even hear a little bit of Bender or Marcus in a voice, it is probably him.
Line 691:
* '''[[James Doohan]]'''
** In ''[[Star Trek: The
* '''[[Michael Dorn]]'''
** Hello? Michael Dorn? Voicing a [[Saints Row|tattoo-clad gangster who beats the crap out of everyone he sees]]? And getting {{spoiler|tattooed with toxic waste}}? There is a god, and he likes this game.
** To ''[[Gabriel Knight]]'' game fans, he will always be immortalized as the voice of Dr. John.
** In [[Fallout 2]], Micheal Dorn provided the voice for Marcus the Mutant, making it eerily familiar for any ''[[Star Trek: The
** He also voiced Kalibak in ''[[Justice League]]''. Sounded exactly like Worf.
** He also played John Henry Irons, aka [[Steel]] in ''[[Superman: The Animated Series|Superman: TAS]]''. For some reason the role was recast in JLU.
