I would argue it's really pre-Toy Story and post-Toy Story. Toy Story was the first Pixar film, and it kicked off a slow but steady takeover of feature animation by CG. And it's not like the A-list celebrities in that film (particularly Tom Hanks and Tim Allen) weren't heavily promoted in that film or its sequels. And let's not forget that the series also had Don Rickles, Wallace Shawn, John Ratzenberger, Wayne Knight, and other established stars that I'm probably forgetting. If Toy Story hadn't been such a massive success then Shrek would never have been made either. But they saw what worked for Disney and proved effective at doing it themselves.

This entire saga really makes you respect WIlliams as a man of principle. He did films like Ferngully because he was supportive of it's environmental message, and only continued doing the Genie for education roles. Toys was a film he was passionate about and wanted it to do well and didn't want any of the fame that came from his role in Aladdin. Unfortunately Disney is the exact opposite of that.

I had the wonderful opportunity to see Robin at a live show before he died, and he seemed so genuine. I have trouble remembering now exactly what jokes he told, what he said, what he did, but what I DO remember is how much fun he seemed to be having. He looked so at ease there on stage, telling jokes until people were crying from laughing so hard. It felt like he never stopped smiling. Whenever I feel sad, I’ll pull up an old routine and just laugh for a while. Jumanji is one of my favorite comfort movies. I never had a personal connection to him, and I can’t claim to, but it felt like I lost a friend when he died. I remember, in the weeks and months after, thinking that I’d never again laugh like I did at Robin’s jokes.

Fun fact - while Christopher Reeeve (the original Superman) was recovering from the accident that left him a paraplegic, he had a bunch of visitors, who unsuccessfully tried to cheer him up. In came his old college buddy, Robin Williams, dressed in a surgical mask and scrubs, who loudly announced in a Russian accent that he was about to perform a rectal exam on Reeve. And for the first time since his accident, Christopher Reeve laughed. That’s how I think of Robin Williams- as someone who cared about others, and who wanted to make people happy. I think it’s that kindness and sincerity that makes the genie a truly loveable character. Edit - I got the above anecdote from a section of Reeeve’s Wikipedia page, which quotes his autobiography. My apologies for spelling his name incorrectly.

Source: Christopher Reeve's autobiography, Still Me “As the day of the operation drew closer, it became more and more painful and frightening to contemplate. In spite of efforts to protect me from the truth, I already knew that I had only a fifty-fifty chance of surviving the surgery. I lay on my back, frozen, unable to avoid thinking the darkest thoughts. Then, at an especially bleak moment, the door flew open and in hurried a squat fellow with a blue scrub hat and a yellow surgical gown and glasses, speaking in a Russian accent. He announced that he was my proctologist, and that he had to examine me immediately. My first reaction was that either I was on way too many drugs or I was in fact brain damaged. But it was Robin Williams. He and his wife, Marsha, had materialized from who knows where. And for the first time since the accident, I laughed. My old friend had helped me know that somehow I was going to be okay.”

@tomboy2980 5 жыл бұрын

I totally agree. Comedians tend to excel in voice acting, simply because most forms of stand up comedy and/or live action movie/tv comedy teaches you skill that translates well into voice acting. Give a comedian decent screentime and room to just play around in an animated movie will create the most memorable moments. (Call me a loser but Billy Crystal in Monsters Inc will never not make me laugh my ass off.) That's the difference between Oprah and Keegan Michael Key. Oprah's acting skill (which she does have) is not the type to translate to animation and she's only there to get adult butts into seats. Keegan Michael Key is a gifted comedian who really needs to stop taking roles in these shitty low budget animated movies because he deserves a vehicle where he's truly allowed to embody a character beyond what people immediately think of when they think of him. (The difference between a role like Joy from inside out and Angelina jolie in Shark tale.) Wow that was venty. Sorry for spamming your comment. I just wanted to expand on the fact that comedians tend to be really good at voice acting lol

@dvillines26 5 жыл бұрын

it's good that Disney generally doesn't do the cynical celebrity casting. like, with Wreck-It-Ralph, John C. Reilly and Sarah Silverman almost seem like the characters were designed for them, and they're both really good at voice acting. For Frozen they had the guts to have Elsa voiced by Idina Menzel, and the main male leads were Broadway actors. thinking about it, that's one of those things that still make Disney features special, even if they're not necessarily great. I'd take Tangled, or Wreck-It-Ralph, or Zootopia over almost any other release by a mainstream animated studio.

Some of those you named may not be big stars to the 2022 social media crowd, but they were actually big stars at the time. Jerry and Dame Angela were known for their stage work, Dame Angela had 5 Tonys before BATB, as well as very successful TV careers. Bob Newhart, Eva Gabor, & Geraldine Page had great careers, too. Not to mention Dame Angela's movie career and past work with Disney. People knew Kurt Russell because of the many Disney movies that he did, and Mickey Rooney and Pearl Bailey were well known, too. Sadly Disney has relied too much on big name stars and politics instead of putting their focus into the scripts lately. Hocus Pocus 2 was terrible. The Santa Clauses is terrible. I'm not holding my breath for Willow either. The thing with Robin was, you knew it was him, but he was SO good at improv and giving the characters within his character of the Genie substance that you forget it was Robin Williams. You just loved the Genie. We don't have that anymore. We just have very recognizable actors voicing animated characters for big dough and big publicity.

And whose idea was it to cast him anyway? That joke/pun relies entirely on an American accent. Because it’s only Americans that say doodie instead of jyutee (though Australians often say jyudee, depending on their accent, and how carefully they’re speaking). It’s Americans that lose the “jy” sound. And the ye sound entirely. Like saying nooz instead of nyooz, eemoo instead of eemyoo (which is how it’s actually pronounced). That’s something particular to North American accents. So why cast someone with a British RP accent? Or, why keep that joke in after you’ve cast someone with an accent that doesn’t work for the joke? I know it’s a small thing, but it bothers me.

I read that comment and all I could think was it had to be more like only a year ago 'cause the idea of what lead to his death still hurts like it's new news. Nope. He was such a good person that the sadness that came from his passing still hits home, and I'm talking as someone who has had way too many people I actually loved and knew pass. He's one of a very few deaths of someone I didn't personally know, that actually makes me feel like I got my wind knocked out of me to this day.
