X-men voice acting: The Best, Worst, and Undiscovered

#1 Posted by poisonfleur (2116 posts) - 4 months, 12 days ago - Show Bio

Name your favorite X-men voice and it's actor/actress. Then name your least favorite voice and the character they did.

A lot of X-men haven't made it to TV and if they did, their voices haven't been done justice.

For the last part, compare an x-men character (that doesn't have a defined animated voice) to a voice or actor that you think they would sound like.

Here is they layout:

1. Favorite Voice & Actor:

2. Least Favorite Voice & Actor:

3. Then name an X-men and compare them to who you would imagine they would sound like

1) Favorite- Storm ( X-men: Legends 2 & Marvel Avenger Alliance 1 & 2) Voice Actress Dawnn Lewis. She had a strong and alluring voice that gives me chills. Love it! I would have given my vote to Susan Dalian who voiced Storm in MVC3-- but She was terrible in W&TX...

2) Least Favorite- Mystique (X-men: The Animated Series) Voice Actress Randall Carpenter. Worst Voice acting... EVER

3) Pixie should be voiced by Georgia Van Cuylenburg a.k.a the voice of Vanille from Final Fantasy XIII & XIII-2. It's the only voice that comes to mind as I read Pixie and it perfectly fits.

@poisonfleur: I'll agree with Pixie.....

Best: I personally like Charles Xavier's voice in X-Men evolution. Then again, I happen to like a lot of voices

Worst: I don't really like his voice in Wolverine and the X-Men

I think Mae Whitman (Cassandra Sandsmark, Katara) might be a good voice for Dust

Think so? I always imagined Dust to have more of a rolling and quieter voice. Somewhere between Raven (Teen Titans) and Princess Kida (Alantis)

I dunno. I am drawing blanks for when it comes to voices for her and Surge.

It's interesting how we read Dust, we hear her so differently. Nothing wrong with that, but it's wild. ya know?

How is young justice by the way? I haven't seen it, because it feels like a replacement of Teen Titans. lol

Wolverine's VA on X-Men Evolution was excellent, it is the voice I hear in my head when I think of Wolverine.

I'm not a fan of the voice for Storm in the 90s series. So damn hammy.

They are both done by Tarra Strong ya know. Raven and Dust.

Now for some more

Best Voice; Jean Gray of X-Men Evolution.

Worst Voice: I can't say that I am a fan of the Marvel Ultimate Alliance Jean Gray

A good voice idea: Catherine Taber, the Rogue of X-Men, rise of Apocalypse, for husk

Oh, and Young Justice is great....though Season 2 starts off rough if you ask me.

@Mutant God: Lenore Zann IS Rogue's Voice! Nobody can ever recreate that! She was perfect!

WHHHHHHHHHHHHAAATT!!??? XD

Le Shock

@krspaceT: I have to check out these voices again. I do remember Jean's voice in Ultimate Alliance. Her's and Psylocke's where so genericly villainous. lol And I think I will check out Young Justice. :)

I liked most of the voice cast in the first X-Men legends game....the characters...for the little some of them spoke.....sounded shockingly accurate to how I pictured them.

For worse.....I actually never liked Steven Blum as Wolverine...and I know, he voices Wolverine in everything these days, and I don't care for it. The guy will always remind me of the anime characters he used to voice.

Well, there is a large contingent of televison actors who voice characters these days. For instance, a lot of actors from all kinds of shows including "Firefly" were utilized for the DCAU, and Greg Weisman (Spectacular Spider-Man, Gargoyles, Young Justice) uses a lot of actors from Star Trek and things like that.

Cathal J. Dodd killed it as Wolverine in Marvel Nemesis, it was much better than his work in the X-Men cartoon

#14 Posted by Rabbitearsblog (3992 posts) - 4 months, 9 days ago - Show Bio

1. Favorite Voice & Actor: Cathal J. Dodd's portrayal of Wolverine in "X-Men the Animated Series." This is pretty much how I hear Wolverine in my head whenever I'm reading the comics. Scott McNeil's portrayal of Wolverine in "X-Men: Evolution" would be a second place choice for the best Wolverine voice!

2. Least Favorite Voice & Actor: Neil Ross as Wolverine in "Pryde of the X-Men." I just can't see Wolverine having an Australian accent when he's obviously Canadian!!!

3. Then name an X-men and compare them to who you would imagine they would sound like:

It would be great if Dan Green did the voice of Colossus in future X-Men cartoons, I think he did a fantastic job with his voice in the motion comic "Astonishing X-Men!"

#15 Posted by krspaceT (1019 posts) - 3 months, 19 days ago - Show Bio

Best voice: Storm of Ultimate Alliance

Worse: I find the voice of Amazing friends Wolverine bad for its Australianness

Ideas: The actor of Cho Chang voicing Karma sounds good to me

Yes! Marvel Nemesis was Very underrated. I thought it had a many memorable highlights.

Best: Steve McNiel for Wolverine. XMEvo had some of the best voice acting for a show. Aside from a few exceptions, everyone seemed to fit their characters pretty well. I'd go so far as to say some of those guys were pretty underrated. I was surprised when I learned some of the VA's were played by some of the characters in Inuyasha.

Worst: Going back to Evo for a sec, the guy who played Gambit. I just couldn't picture Gambit really speaking that way. Not that the guy in question was terrible as a VA, he just didn't fit the role.

Ideas: I can somehow picture Jennifer Hale voicing Transonic for some reason.

Steve Blum is the best goddamn wolverine.

#19 Posted by Dman1366 (437 posts) - 3 months, 18 days ago - Show Bio

For X-Men?

Best: Kitty in WatX

Worst: I hate nightcrawlers voice for Evolution

I always think that Iceman's voice should be done by the guy who did Ultimate Spiderman's voice /*video game*/
