His voice is so soothing while you explore the facility. And $60 to be a test subject! Who wouldn't sign up?
Yep that’s mostly what I know him from.
TIL, thx
He was also the US President in Red Alert 3. The one we never talk about.
And Cave Johnson in Portal
And Ketheric Thorm in Baldur’s Gate 3!
And Portal 2.
Weird, I never ran into Ketheric Thorm in Portal 2.
Just realized he was referring to portal 2. I had to Google Cave Johnson.
And the Yellow M&M
And the Farmer's Insurance guy!
Bruh, you missed the og.
Bro why this peanut bitch standin like an anime girl. Yamete fr fr
-
Henry Rollins is Zaheer
-
Serena Williams plays a Bhanti Sage in the Wan episodes.
-
Aubrey Plaza is Eska, though that's super obvious to me.
-
Rami Malak is Tahno
-
Zelda Williams is Kuvira
-
Dee Bradley Baker plays at least 32 different characters, including Tarrlok
-
Eva Marie Saint is Katara
I can keep going, but LoK has an incredible voice cast, not the least of which is Janet Varney who (IMO) is now a legend for crushing Korra.
Aubrey Plaza is Eska, though that's super obvious to me.
Oh wow, that's hilarious
It is. But its also Aubrey Plaza playing Aubrey Plaza, lol.
The difficulty of course is not in getting her to understand the concept of acting, it's that nobody wants her to be anybody else.
If you're really into JK Simmons, go find the often-overlooked sci-fi thriller Counterpart. In which, he plays two identical people with very different personalities. I'll leave you to discover why.
I watched it just because he's in it. I've also got Night Sky waiting.
Ohh cool, haven't heard of Night Sky, but if it's anything like Counterpart, that would be amazing.
I liked Night Sky, but JK Simmons doesn’t exactly JK it up in that one.
I was so bummed they cancelled this show. It was SO GOOD.
He was also in 2022s Marmaduke movie which The Guardian describes as having
“a level of aesthetic amateurishness seldom seen in wide-release motion pictures, more closely associated with DVD menu screens (and) computer games meant to teach children the fundamentals of phonics”
It’s honestly probably the worst movie I’ve ever seen.
So yea, he’s great and everything but they’re not all wall to wall bangers!
I highly doubt JK Simmons was responsible for the animation. He probably signed up for voice work before it became apparent it looked terrible.
No, but the other aspects of the movie (story. writing, direction etc) are just as terrible.
The whole thing is horribly lazy and feels like it’s a combination of AI, a tax dodge and one of those contractual movies that has to be made or someone loses a licence.
Also Bojack Horseman, where he voices the news anchor whale and the movie producer Lenny Turtletaub.
And then there's Glorious, where he voices a demonic Eldritch gloryhole.
he's also fucking jacked!
Schillinger from OZ!
Yeah, can't look at J.K. Simmons without remembering the horrible things Vernon Schillinger has done in Oz.
Isn't he also Kathy thorn from bg3?
the number of people who haven't seen Oz is too damn high.
He was, and always will be, Vernon Schillinger, the neo-nazi rapist. He was simply amazing in the role; dark as hell.
Oh jeez don't jinx it and make me Google him and find out he's a Trumper or something.
That... can't be right. Ford Pines does not have a mustache.
Archer as well!! Which I'm rewashing for the billionth time. Yeah, j.k. fucks for sure
And Fletcher in Whiplash
