Hey, It's That Voice!/A to D: Difference between revisions

*** Or [[Megas XLR|Jamie]], but even shriller (''Monkey thing!'')

** Leeron aside, I have had repeated notable experiences with [[Hey, It's That Voice!]] humbly deemed "Blum Moments", tending to not expect it: ''Strait Jacket'', ''[[Code Geass]]'', the ''[[Street Fighter Alpha]]'' movie, ''[[Wolverine]]''... he also [[Actor Allusion|just had to pull a Spike]] in his farewell to [[Toonami]].

** Since Blum does so many kinds of voice acting, it's always weird to hear [[Cowboy Bebop|Spike]] or [[Code Geass|Todoh]] try to sell me something in a TV commercial.

** 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 ({{[[User|PG 556]] 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...

* '''[[Peter Cullen]]'''

** Peter Cullen has not only voiced [[The Transformers (animation)|Optimus Prime]] since the '80s (Ironhide too, but only in the 80s) -- during most of that time, he also provided the voice of [[The Eeyore|Eeyore]] in Disney's various Pooh offerings. Once you're aware of that, you soon realize that the only difference is one of ''attitude'', not ''timbre''.

** Speaking of ''[[Knight Rider]]'', the voice of KITT's [[Evil Twin]] KARR was provided by none other than Peter Cullen, an actor who would later become very well known for voicing another vehicle of radically different morality.

** Not to mention helping out another giant robot who needed a narrator, and then a commander for its second incarnation. "From Days Of Long Ago...From Uncharted Regions Of The Galaxy...Comes A Legend...The Legend Of...[[Voltron]], Defender Of The Universe." To use the vehicle analogy again, that intro is like the supremely cool hood ornament on a sweet set of wheels.

** He also does the occasional beer commercial.

** And no-one will soon forget his show-stealing performance in ''[[Fallout 3]]'' as Liberty Prime, who is basically an extremely anti-Communist [[Expy]] of Optimus Prime.

** The return of Peter Cullen as [[And the Fandom Rejoiced|Optimus Prime]] in the ''[[Transformers (film)|Transformers]]'' films. [[Memetic Mutation|NOW GIVE HIM YOUR FACE!!]].

 

*** This troper personally cannot wait to hear Legion say that the Reapers want to ensure [[Memetic Mutation|Complete. Galactic. SATURATION.]]

** What you probably ''didn't'' realize was that he was the voiceover narration in the GEICO commercials -- not the CGI gecko, but the voice that says:

** He's also Grimoire Noir in ''[[Nie R]]'', and sounds almost identical to the voice he uses for Wesker.
