Its hard to wrap my head around the voice actor thing. With actual actors, or crew, or anything like that, you could ask them lots of stuff... like, "What was it like shooting this episode/movie?" or "How did you like working with so-and-so on set?" or any one of a million things. A voice actor? What are you going to say? "I like your voice! And I like it when you do the thing with your voice!"

I don't get it.

I dunno, if you're familiar with multiple roles someone did, there's at least fave roles and the range of their talent to comment on. A trait of a lot of these older VAs have that you sadly just don't get much of anymore with the younger "talent" now that often sound the same in every damn thing they do.

Makes me sad that it's kind of becoming a lost art. Such as the Sonic movies taking me right out of the emersion because all I can hear the entire time is Rise Leo.

Meanwhile, as I type this I'm logged into one of my game characters whose voice emotes are by none other than Cam Clarke. For many years I have TRIED to hear even a hint of FW Leo in there and I just can't. The man has talent for miles. Definitely something worth appreciating.

Good outcome.
Much as I am disappointed in Musk lately, he is still can do something good.

Its almost like you don't think voice acting takes skill and can be considered an actual performance, no worse than "in person" performance in movie or in a theater. You can ask voice actor, pretty much all the same questions you can ask any other actor in any other industry.

Look at this piece of sh**. He wouldn't stand with his co-worker, Gina Carano, who was cancelled for a sharing a meme the left didn't like... but he'll stand with Jimmy, who he barely knows and got ousted for deliberately lying and misleading his audience about a cold-blooded murder?

As excited as I am for the Gina Carano/Ronda Rousey fight, I can't help but think it's basically gonna be IFightShelbyMarx from Icarly. Neither one will actually end up taking a beating. And they're both just gonna come out of it with a nice big pay check.

That is definitely the concern. Lots of holds and walking around the sides.

Good for Gina. She had to cut way more than Ronda did. Looking forward to this fight!
