Best voice...errr... favorite voice ever
 
Since we've gone the negative route to talk about your least favorite voice actors, I think it's time to pull a 180 on the subject. Who's your favorite voice actors?

My favorites from the old school, June foray and Paul Frees. In any Jay Ward cartoon, these 2 voice actors always got the best parts, and the most of them as well. they really stretched their talents and did multiple voices, sometimes all in one scene.

For the current popular voice actors, I really like Jim Cummings, Rob Paulsen, Billy West, Dan Castlanetta and Tom Kenny.

Billy West is THE man

David Lucas, baby! (Spike Speigel)

Ooo, and David Hayter (Solid Snake). The man can VA and write a damn good movie!

Uhm, John DiMaggio as well. (Bender, Wakka)

Oh, and Adam Carl. The BEST Donatello voice IMO.

Lesee.... I'm sure I'll thinka more....eventually.

Bruce Timm is one of the creators. Batman's voice was done by Kevin Conroy, someone I forgot to mention in my list. He's definately another onna my favorites and has defined Batman more for me than onybody who played him in Live action. Matk Hamill (Hammil?) is also VERY noteworthy. Nobody will ever be a better Joker than him.

Rob Paulsen has to be the king after Animaniacs. The stuff he did there was insane (Yakko's World & Pinky in general). Jim Cummings would be a close second, due to him being some of the best characters of all time. Charles Martinet cuz he Mario, and I can immitate his voice exactly. Don't know his name, but that dude who does Knuckles/Yami/Baxter Stockman/Raph. He's probobly 4Kids best voice actor. There's a zillion others but I can't think of all the names aat the moment. :roll:

He is an extremely cool voice actor. He always sounded like a funny version of Ringo Starr.
