I hope every person who sees AI as an inevitable replacement for voice actors sees this video. Characters like these are why it's crucial to have living, thinking, feeling humans voicing the lines. The uncanny valley doesn't just apply to visuals; humans can hear when something isn't quite right, too. We're hardwired to recognize human voices the same way we can see faces in cloud formations or on toast.

You are Elastigirl! My God. Pull-yourself-together! 'What will you do? ' Is this a question? You will show him you remember that he is Mr. Incredible, and you will remind him who YOU are. Well, you know where he is. Go, confront the problem. Fight! Win!
And call me when you get back, darling. I enjoy our visits.

I saw somewhere that Disney was finally going to come to their senses, cut their losses and cancel the dumpster fire that is Snow White 2024.
I'm surprised that we haven't heard about Shareholders rising up in outrage about the value of their stock plummeting because of all the box office bombs and woke BS

Important question about the jungle book remake: is it true that the boy who played mogli wasn't allowed to watch the movie? That said jeugdjournaal in a video about that kids can play in mature movies. Also, do you think PG is the right rating, or had it better being PG-13?

I am Unicron that still gives me chill. While the movie itself was not that great, Orson wells was probably the best part. Why is he so low on the list though? Hes top spot quality. Same with Oz as Yoda. Although, no one does NO Caps! Better

Frank oz and Owen wilson sure, but the rest were mostly unrecognisable, plus I've never even heard of Jemaine clement before. Now if you want short but memorable, how about Sheb Wooley who did the Wilhelm scream in every movie ever. :P

Really, Walken as King Louis? OH HECK NO! He was AWFUL! WHY wouldnt you pick the ORIGINAL King Louis? The Jungle Book remake was the first time I HATED a Walken role; I usually love him! He shouldnt have even been on this list. UGH!

before the end credits rolles for INCREDIBLES, i was positive that Linda Hunt was the voice of Edna. i saw the film 2x just to make sure i didn't miss or misread the voice cast credits. Brad did a brilliant job finding her voice.

Edna Mode - the villain that teally foes have the heroes right where she wants them.
Hidden laboratory - check!

She monologues, and the heroes listen!
She is the villain that WON.

Apparently Brad Bird did the voice of Edna as a placeholder until they found the right actress not realising he was the perfect choice. It was one of those happy accidents that created an iconic character.

For me, the performance of Ken's voice actor was iconic, along with Jodi Benson who was the voice actress of Barbie in Toy Story 3, they did it excellently, even though it was short.

You had to make it under 7 minutes to justify leaving Darth Vader (8 min 6 sec in A New Hope) and Judi Dench as Queen Elizabeth (8 minutes in Shakespeare in Love, didn't you?

Orson Welles voicework as Unicron was largely doctored since the actor was somehow disinterested in doing the role and most of the original recordings were unusable directly.

Honorable mention: Jesse McCartney as JoJo in Horton Hears A Who. His character only has a few brief speaking lines and singing lines but leaves quite an impression.

I'm shocked that Death from Puss in Boots: The Last Wish didn't make it in the list! He appeared for a short time in the movie and his appearance was so iconic!

I think a shoutout should also be given to Bob Peterson as Roz in Monsters Inc and Monsters University.
I'm watching you Wasowski! Always watching you!

It's hard to believe Yoda was ever considered a minor character. He's such an iconic part of the Star Wars saga and every line from him is iconic.

I found Tamatoa to be distracting and his song annoying. He was my least favorite part of the movie. You will get NO argument from me about #1, tho!

I think there are way better choices from even before the 21st century that could've been on this list. But Yoda & Edna are definitely iconic

Chirstopher Walken made this list? As King Louie? No way. Louis Prima was a lot more memorable. The live action Jungle Book was forgettable.

Definite Edna on top there! The only other minor character that unintentionally stole the movie spotlight nearly as much was Rhino in Bolt!

Minor note: In the Yoda segment, the word is pronounced INT-e-gral, not in-TEG-ral (as in the accent is on the first syllable)
