Moviefone: The first animated movie I went to see in theaters because a celebrity was doing one of the voices was 'The Lion King.' The celebrity voice was Jonathan Taylor Thomas as young Simba. I was 6 years old.
An animated movie rarely gets made today if there isn't some big-name star attached to voice a character. The trend has certainly put exclusively-voice actors out of a job.
Fight For Paradise Review: This reality show is nothing new but there are so many uncomfortable moments that will definitely give you the ick.
Bros Review: The series, as the title suggests, is about two adult men who want to behave like children and we are not here for that.
Going Home With Tyler Cameron Review: This is a simple, no-nonsense but cliched watch, with Cameron's boyish charms taking centre stage.
Meh, I think that yes the known actors doing animated movies brings in more of an audience. And it does suck that voice actors are losing out on jobs. But I could go either way. I don't necessarily go to a movie because this or that actor is the voice. But I do like trying to guess who the actors are.
I think it does because of People know that these Person is doing a role in these movie they will watch it like rango as an example people knew it had johnny depp in it so People went and watched it.
It doesn't matter a lot to me. Rio is coming out soon and the main character is voiced by a still relatively unknown actor.
Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs has one of the best celebrity voice casts ever made and nobody saw it...despite how incredible it was!
I think sometimes it actually takes me out of the movie (or game). The Illusive Man in Mass Effect 2 is a good example. Instead of thinking of him as The Illusive Man, I couldn't help but think of Martin Sheen every time he spoke. I prefer no-name voice actors.
