1. Cree Summer - 90% of her characters sound EXACTLY the same - Susie from Rugrats, Foxxy Love, one of the dogs on Clifford, Robin from Camp Candy, the list goes on.

Either she's got one funny voice or she' s getting paid to talk in her normal voice. Either way, she's got no range and she's a lazy bitch. The only characters she did kinda sounded different were Penny from Inspector Gadget and Elmyra.

2. Noel McNeal - Another asshole with one fucking voice. Probably best known to people on this board as Magellan from Eureeka's Castle, he has since recycled his voice onto a few other characters such as Bear from Bear in the Big Blue House.

The dude who plays Sasuke in Naruto and some dude in MAR. He always sounds the same, no matter what he's in.

Also, Kath Soucie. Plays Lil DeVille in Rugrats, as well as a bunch of other shit. Always manages to sound either exactly the same, or nearly the same in everything she's been in.

Under that definition, Patrick Warburton is a bad voice actor, considering every character he's ever done sounds exactly like him. He's been coasting on his signature voice for too long.

And Cam Clarke... And I love Cam Clarke.

Holy fucking son of a bitch, that list would include Mako! I refuse to endorse any bad voice acting conditions that would cast him in a bad light.

A stipulation, that not only does the bad voice actor have to have no range, but their voice has to be obnoxious or at least not enchanting.

So, Richard Montalban would be excused, but the bastard that does the AFLAC duck is not.

Celebrities are excused because they are generally hired only because people recognize their voices. Yes, that includes Gilbert Gottfried.

Our minds are connected in some way.

There's a running joke between my friends that I have the power to steal people's thoughts, since I usually manage to say what people are thinking.

Brad Garrett. I mean, what's up with that guys voice?

The tall jewish guy from Everybody Hates Ray Romano's Guts?

Crap, I just looked through the list of his voice work and it's dawned on me that he's been doing it for a while. Thats wild.

Someone elses voice acting I can't stand...Scott Menville...a.k.a. Wart from wonder Years, Red Herring On Pup named Scooby Doo, Dark Cloud 2, Ma-Ti from Captain Planet, Johnny Quest...can't complain about that one...Atleast the guy had a band. I can't imagine him singing though, only talking the lyrics. I mean the guy is alright in my book but I just can't stand his voice anymore.

Edit: Upon further inspection via Wikipedia, this guy has done a lot of stuff I had forgotten. I still hate his voice but I gotta respect him.

Add the dude who played the long-haired redheaded kid in Salute your Shorts. I believe he did Jack Spicer in Xiaolin Showdown, on top of a whole bunch of other shit. He's a good voice, but it always sounds the same.

That guy, when I think about him, it makes me want to fart.

He was Montana Max as well. I think that was his first voice role.

Dr. Blight sounds a lot like the mayor from South Park.

That's eerie, but correct. Mary Kay Bergman shot herself and died in 1999. What I find disturbing is she's got work on IMDB up until Balto II (2002).

Although, seriously, what voice actor wasn't in Captain Planet? Nearly every character was played by multiple people over the show's run, and virtually all of them were celebrities or high-profile voice actors. It's remarkable.

I still hated the show, though.

Dude, Captain Planet is great. Don't go dissin' the Cap! The Power is Yours, Motherfucker!!!

Posted: Jun 01 2007 02:35 pm

No. No he wasn't. He was an even gayer superman with a mullet. Green mullet.

(oh, and whoever did the voices for the planateers sucked.)

Guy A: "Captain Planet's a great hero! He's got all the powers of nature at his disposal, he's a symbol of teamwork because he needs the planeteers to summon him, and he stands for a better Earth."
Guy B: "Oh he is not."
Guy A: "Okay, why isn't he a great hero then?"
Guy B: "Let's take his weakness."
Guy A: "Pollution"
Guy B: "Right. And what does he fight?"
Guy A: "Ecological villains"
Guy B: "That...?"
Guy A: "Pollute"
Guy B: "Right. He fights the very thing that can hurt and kill him. That makes as much sense as Superman fighting a Kryptonite golem.""

Mary Kay Bergman actually had some decent range. Before she died, she voiced pretty much every female character on South Park.

When you need someone to voice a mean old man, who ya gonna call? Ed Asner.

The Colonel from the MGS games uses the exact same voice for Ben's granddad on Ben 10.

Posted: Jun 01 2007 06:07 pm

I knew that Grandpa Whateverthefuck sounded familiar. I initially thought that he sounded like General Reikan from Rogue Squadron, but I dismissed that theory.

The planateers shouldn't even bothered doing anything for the first 15 minutes of the show, because they would all enter their stock footage summoning and he would fix all of the problems of the show 19 times out of 20, often by calling on powers only vaguely related to nature. A douche ex machina if you will.'

Its also a bad message to send out, because in real life solving pollution problems requires a concerted effort, not some "mash the last five minutes of show button" and make the problem go away.

Mother fucker can't even stay consistent. Roy had two very different voices in MGS2. You could call GW on that one, but it still bugs the hell out of me.

There are two voice actors that I don't like.

That first chick that did the voice of Gohan in Dragon Ball Z, and that guy that did the voice of Shredder in the 1987 TMNT cartoon. Now that he has a role in "Who's your Caddy", I just lost faith.
