Didn't I already point out that having DHP do the voice of SS will have people wondering when Abe Sapien turned silver and started flying around on a surfboard? Besides, DHP is a well known name and Tim was asking for lesser known actors.

Well since you expressed an opinion in one of your 600+ documented posts everyone should have read it and it must be correct… right?

Now did somebody go and take an extra ego pill with their Cheerios in the morning? :whatever:

Can the attitude, junior. I eat nastier things than you for breakfast.

Ach, what the heck - I'm not going to lose sleep over it. The studio will do what the studio wants, so I guess we'll just have to wait and see. :yay:

PS - love the sig and the name, BTW. Gary Seven was a fantastic character, and I've always been a fan of Robert Lansing. Most excellent!

Thank you Hellmistress. I love the character too. I have a web site devoted to the character with a few new insights to that particular show if I can ever get it off the ground. It should be real interesting. We're so close. If I could just get my brother off his rear and finish up a few details.
 
Here's my list of possible candidates for the voice:

-Geoffrey Rush
-Val Kilmer
-Alan Tudyk
-Liev Schreiber
-Adrien Brody
-Neal McDonough
-Clancy Brown

-TNC
 
i guess we'll see.. hopefully someone who can bring people into the theaters..
 
The way I see it, Hypestyle, most of the people who will see FF2 will watch it to see the F4 from the first movie and alot of them won't even know or care who the Silver Surfer really is, so I don't think anyone above a B-list actor is necessary...This movie franchise is established among the general audience already.

Ya know, the voice for SS, I think they should go with an older actor like the mentioned Geoffrey Rush,...Only because I think it'd go well alongside Doug Jones' height. They don't want to make this 6'4" alien being with immense power sounding too much like someone who doesn't know what he's doing.

I'm also liking Alan Tudyk (Sonny from I, Robot) for the voice.

Doug Jones sounds fine to me.

He just needs to practice his voice work and tone it down a bit and he'll be great. Some voice mechanisms could be fine, as well. :up: :up:

When Doug was shooting, he pitched his voice deeper than his normal talking voice. There's an Urban Rush interview on youtube where you hear him do the voice for about a line.

yeah, I'm fine with Doug too,...That Billy Zane mention caught my eye, but I dunno. I don't think of him as a name that the studio would feel safe with...

Hi everybody. My name is Brian and I'm trying to get an audition for The Silver Surfers Voice.Tim Story posted a blog not too long ago asking the fan's who they wanted to voice the character. I took that as an oppurtunity and created a myspace site dedicated to me trying to get...just an audition. I know there are plenty of talents out there who would do a great job, including Doug Jones himself,who is the motion captured Surfer. I'm just trying to get a chance to throw my name in the hat and let those with the power choose the best person for the job. I'm not a pro...just a fan of comics and film who also enjoys animation and the voices that bring characters to life. If you feel up to it...check me out at myspace.com/surfervoice. I posted a short dialogue sample. If you're on myspace send an add or a comment my way. Let me know what you think. I'd appreciate and suggestions you have. Thanks for your time and have a good one.

Are you the guy on myspace posting everywhere about this with the same screen name? Assuming. Edit: Ahhh yes you are. I'm glad to see you pushing this hard.
 
If I have to vote for someone other than Doug, than I say Frank Welker.:D

I don't know, I can handle a lot of *****.


ROTFL

Man when you break us down as human being we are pretty basic creatures are we not.

It is what it is.

I just found that line so funny.
