John DiMaggio (Futurama's Bender) Reviews Impressions of His Voices | Vanity Fair - Розваги
John DiMaggio is like that teacher who you think is really cool but you barely have a passing grade in their class.
The strict, but fair one that you want to impress
Forbidden Color this is so accurate
My CADD and Architectural design teacher to a T.
Its been over 10 years, but I'll never forget that man.
Yes
Lol this is accurate. You think you’re good and doing well and he’s super chill and nice to you and you wind up with a 65. lol
It's like his natural speech is a mix of bender and Jake.
Nob ody and a bit of Zog
Nob ody Omg 💯 perfect ! ❤️
I can’t unhear it now
He literally said IN the video that Jake voice is literally his voice 10:16
Jader.
I love that he didn’t kiss their asses and be nice like everyone always does. He takes a lot of pride in what he does and is protective of his art form. I respect that.
agreed
Truth
Dumbass edgy 12 year old
I mean what's wrong with being nice exactly?
He's one of the best in his craft, we come for his insight, not his politeness!
He actually REVIEWED their voices instead of saying "they're my fans therefore they're all great 👍"
The video is about reviewing
He has to review.
@@achoice9401 But a lot of the time Voice Actors tell their fans they're all great and don't critique too them hard but John tells them how it is and is honest with them. Not too harsh but not sweet talking.
@@SomeGuyHowGoesIt i mean don't blame the guy His intentions are good
+ he is kinda old tho
@@SomeGuyHowGoesIt Exactly. He’s providing constructive criticism and good advice.
His voice for jake is the most comforting thing in the world.
Its like a soft cloud telling you to stay hydrated.
Ikr
And it's basically his normal voice which makes it even better
Bacon pancake making bacon pancake...
He said after the finale that he sees Jake's voice as "my voice, with a hug wrapped around it."
I absolutely love Jake and have a tattoo of him on my arm
What about Rath
"It's basically my voice, but with a hug around it"
That's adorable. It's also such a perfect way to describe Jake as a character. He's the comfort and support of a loving hug, but in stretchy dog form.
Agreed!!
When lemongrab says THE THIIING !!! about the "You really smell like dog buns" note I literally nearly died laughing . So absurd I could barely take it
John DiMaggio looks exactly like I imagine someone named "John DiMaggio" would look like
😂
He's gonna be so happy when he hears this news
I didn't think of it until I read your comment. I've never seen his face anywhere, but once I started watching the video, I was like "yeah, that's him"
John DiMaggio is one of the greatest voice actors ever. Period.
Nolan North,Troy Baker
He is.
@@blues1111 and Mark Hamill
@@blues1111 also Kevin Conroy
blues s i was about to reply with this exact thing lol Let’s not forget Nolan North is in everything.
For real, Bender has one of the most unique and iconic voice in cartoon history
You don't know who Edward Bosco is do ya
Joe Swanson
Nah, invader zim(billy west) has the most iconic voice.
@@iloveseeingtheworldburn4035 Billy West didn't play Invader Zim...
@@NerdMiGerd Richard Steven
“That’s called job security folks.” Let’s hope so with a new season of Futurama coming out. Rooting for you buddy.
Well, pay the man...
@@DayInDaLife are dumbasses made together or are they separated for their own safety?
@@DayInDaLife even if it's billions(mr burns voice) I say pay the robot
Well, he got the bag.
Lol, he was right.
Props to Dimaggio for straight up rating the impressions and being honest. Some of these were rough, and it's nice to see real critique instead of "oh yeah, he's got the vibes"
I’m glad he’s keeping it real and not just giving these guys passes like the last video I watched. I bet if someone was horrible he’d straight up say they suck.
He basically did with the one guy doing a Marcus Fenix impression in his car
Like Patrick warburton
He was to nice, most of the impressions was bad.
Tompa90Nobody he was the most honest. He wasn’t terribly brutal. And for a lot of them I didn’t like his reasoning behind his judging. He judged the wrong things. Even there there are no wrong things. It’s just his opinion
Blah Blah no, a lot of them definitely did suck
I quite liked his Joker. He was one of the few who wasn't just copying Mark Hamill but actually did his own thing with it.
Agreed! Something super unnerving about his joker. Loved it.
Mark Hamill liked Dimaggio's Joker too
I'd like to see Mark Hamill do an impression of John DiMaggio doing an impression of Mark Hamill's Joker doing an impression of Bender.
I’m listening to his Dr. Drakken and for some reason, I hear a hint of Mark Hamill’s Joker. Not the Arkham games Joker where he sounds older, but the animated series one where he still sounds young and energetic. Not saying he copied Mark Hamill, but I can really hear some similarities with his Drakken and Hamill’s Joker.
I know right, he's might favorite voice of the Joker next to Hamill's.
I really love how voice actors are getting attention lately. Feel like they weren’t really recognized outside of conventions. They really bring life to the animations
My dream is to see animated movies casting voice actors for most of their roles instead of non-voice actors who just sound like themselves every time.
Its the algorithm feeding you stuff you like
Its weird hearing him talk normally but you still hear little bits and pieces of the characters naturally in his voice.
I hear faint marcus fenix anytime he speaks help me
He's like the human form of Jake. Something about him is just comforting.
Maybe Jake is the animated form of him
CrabJock i was wondering how to put it!! you’re so right
@@Unfolded74 Probably. I mean, John came first, and Jake is a character. I just find it more amusing to say it the other way around.
John DiMaggio gives off mega dad energy
John DiMaggio hears an impression: “E for effort”
Tom Kenny hears the worst spongebob impression ever: “Wow that was great!”
DiMaggio*
neph studios my b
The SpongeBob impersonators were horrible. They should be ashamed
Jair Mendez
I thought there was one that sounded EXACTLY like season 1/2 spongebob, maybe because of the low quality lmao but it sounded identical
John DiMaggio skips the bs
This is the most accurate rating of impressions so far. I appreciate John DiMaggio not sugar coating it and just calling bad impressions out for what they are. Everyone else has been too nice.
This guy is too unique to be replaced!
There are many voices and characters that many many skilled impersonators can do, but I think Bender might be a once in a lifetime kind of thing!
So he thought
@@noobstalker1 Well we'll see. Hopefully Hulu will cave and pay DiMaggio more.
But what I meant was Bender's voice actor can't be replaced because no one can do that voice right and Bender will be ruined...
@@KingPBJames hopefully, I just think it’s funny he’s talking about job security so he thought he’s worth more money only to get turned down,
He should just take what’s given, I heard he’s asking for more than the other voice actors
@@noobstalker1 Nothing against Billy West and the rest, but not all voice actors need to be paid the same. If Bender is more valuable then he can ask for more money
@@KingPBJames he’s not more valuable he just thinks he is cause of job security
And he’s a popular character but everyone on that show matters
Why does the first guy sound like he's doing a really, really tired Bender.
That's what I thought about it. It's a good impression, but it needs a touch more aggression and bombastic energy.
Watch the first season of futurama....Bender sounds a lot different than the 4th+ seasons. He sounds way more like that.
like Eeyore
His impression was actually the best one in the video, it was Season 1 Bender.
I asume he was “drunk” because he said he needed a beer. In Futurama Bender gets drunk if he doesn’t have booze.
Tom Kenny: "that's close, what I think you need to try is..."
John DiMaggio: "you can't do this. Why are you here?"
Tbf these are much worse than most of impressionists they have on here
"JOB SECURITY!"
Yeah he's real.
Dude doesn’t want anyone taking his gigs. I can sympathize.
I think it was Tara Strong who said, “People think voice acting is just making silly voices. But it actually is acting!”
That’s what lesson DiMaggio and his characters teach brilliantly.
I think the first guy shows this. The voice sounded right, but the acting was off.
Exactly. Anyone can talk into a microphone. However, it takes expertise and vocal training to channel a character.
well, Tara strong taught that, really
female voice actors are incredible and legendary and deserve as much-- if not more-- respect as male ones
@@ITI-xi5zx Well I don’t know if you can really slice it up by male/female. But there are plenty of teachers in the world. Can’t have just one.
In all of these videos, John Dimaggio is by far my favorite just because he legitimately criticizes the people he’s listening instead of saying “They’re really good but not quite there”
i love how he describes Jake's voice "it's basically my voice, but with a hug around it" 😭😭😭
Tyken Grayne and that’s exactly something jake would say lol
I kind of feel bad for these people doing John's voice. he's being very kind to them. most of these are not good.
True, I like how he thanks them just for putting themselves out there and trying, since it's generally kind of embarrassing, especially they mess it up
i agree im just enjoying when john gets to do his voices on camera also hes gotta love all people trying to emulate him as it means hes popular and job security
@@CMyBigHarryBLLS the king zog voice at the beginning was my second favorite
"not good" is putting it nicely lol. I mean i probably couldnt do any better, but still
I think the first Bender was pretty spot on, tbf
Drakken's voice is iconic. Just the way he talks and screams *SHEGO!* makes the show so much better.
Voice actor honestly critiques attempts to mimic him doing his iconic voices professionally: "I'm really sorry if I was harsh or anything"
What a good dude
He gives construction criticism instead of pretending to love them all. Love it
Rebekah Wahl yes!!!!
Im not usually a grammer cop if you know what i mean. And it may be a typo, but i just wanted you to know its constructive criticism.
@@zachshiray8998 We can tell you're not a grammar cop because you omitted the apostrophe in I'm, misspelled grammar, didn't capitalize the 'I', and mixed up it's/its, though you did manage to be correct about constructive criticism.
And just to be clear, I made no claim that I was a grammar cop; I simply stated we could tell that Zach was not one.
It would be amazing if he gave construction criticism. I wonder if he has any expertise in that.
Also it's I'm not im.
I'm impressed with his ability to articulate and teach his technique. If John DiMaggio every made a Master Class on voice acting it would be an instant success.
Starcore Labs nope. A pass.
@@mstandenberg1421 yupp. A fail.
"Job security"
That aged well. Still holding hope.
He's back
@@themarkiscookin I've just seen the news. Excellent!
As bender would say "shut up, baby, I know it!"
I love John giving legit feedback and advice to these impressionists. Tough love is often more valuable than empty praise. Don't get me wrong, I think it's great when these voice actors are flattered and encouraging the impressionists (sometimes that's needed), but I really love an industry pro giving technique guidance and approach recommendations advice.
I feel bad for John DiMaggio. They got the worst impressions for him to react too.
Why feel bad he probably loves seeing people who likes the stuff he's in
He is laughing at those noobs , he kind a happy.
I was thinking that as well, I’ve heard better bender impressions at my local bars
I mean the first Bender impression was pretty darn close
It seems for all the voice actor reactions they find the worst
Jake’s voice really is a warm hug. A warm caring brotherly hug, which is what Jake is to Finn and to all of us.
Welp, gonna go binge all of Adventure Time now
@@adisonlandon9883 It's still a great show.
I "aged" out of cartoons around the time the show became popular so I dont share the same nostalgic viewpoint but the voice still sounds like that even to me
@@_Diego_ the show becomes more adult after it meets it's Eldritch Knight in the Lich. It's affected me in ways few shows have, cartoon or not
@@_Diego_ yo I'm in the same boat, I only watched the show last year and I'm sad i didn't get to see it younger 😭 avatar and adventure time are the 2 most wholesome shows
I love how honest John is and how evil his laugh is.
The first bender impression is actually not bad 😂
Yeah, I immediately thought he was doing season 1 Bender because it sounded spot on.
I thought it sounded good too, only thing I noticed is it seemed like he was speaking a bit slowly, which is understandable because he's trying to do the voice.
I love John so much
Dutch needs son
Me too bro
Ayee
I don’t know why but I love his voice
“It’s like my voice but with a hug around it” 😭💛 I love that.
It's so wholesome
I feel like he did for Jake what Billy West did for Doug. Just poured all of his sweetness into the tone
I actually love hearing his breakdown and how he can tell which parts they’re doing wrong in their throat vs which parts they got right
His regular voice is just Jake and I love hearing him talk lol
“You put it in a blender and then you get bender” -John DiMaggio
That actually sounds like something Bender would say
I literally read this as he was saying that!
In other words you will never sound like John DiMaggio is what he’s trying to say
Job security bby
haha ...right??
True and i think that came out a bit for drakken. I thought the drakken was incredible and john just put it down, made me think he doesnt *want* people to do well at impressions of his voices
@@WoobyMe Nah it was trash
@@WoobyMe it was a good impression, but only at that specific volume and at that specific speed. if your impression breaks down once you add life into the voice, its really not a good impression anymore.
The first dude who did Jake's impression does the same voice for all his other impressions
wah
John really had it tougher than the other voice actors. He isn't tryna be mean, but he's completely honest when the guys doing his voice just couldn't quite make the cut.
He looks so embarrassed with some of them but he's keeping it real he's not lying
"Jake is not... he, he's pretty smart" insert clip of dying Jake using his one wish on a sandwich
LMFAO
Jake was suicidal tho..
I feel like he was supposed to be delirious at that point, hence doing something so stupid
If you're going to die, might as well have a delicious sandwich.
@@adampope5107 now THATs the answer I was looking for
He's also the English voice actor for Wakka in FFX. Very versatile and great voice actor.
He also voiced Kimahri
And that alone is why Wakka is my favorite character in FFX
He's got such a unique voice. I can't even get close to imitating Bender
The first guy sounds like Bender's battery was running low.
Or Bender when he’s sober.
“That’s right! I’m sober and crazy and I don’t know what I might do!”
Ye
John DiMaggios voice is literally a blend of all his characters. When he talks, I hear Jake and Drakken, with the toughness and laugh of Bender.
It wasn’t until recently I heard Drakken sounds more like a sophisticated bender
He does 1000 different versions of the same voice.
@@tylerthompson3075 Yeah, theres something to be said about good impressions but the top shots in VA all have their own unique style
9:35 The way that he yells shego is hilarious 😆 😂
3:46 Well that aged well...
Wdym?
Met this guy at galaxy con in Richmond VA with my son. This guy couldn't have been more awesome. I asked for a selfie with him and my son, he grabbed my phone and snapped a TON of pics with him and my son making goofy faces. This guy is a class act !!!!
Hello, hello....waving to the crowd blowing kisses to everyone as they applaud me being apart of the RVA
Hello Richmonder
He grabbed my phone and ran
Frank Palamidis *sheds a single tear* just like Bender would
Awesome
My nemesis!
Your not funny
And what a funny nemesis he was!
@@russellleezumbaumiii1760 It was humorous. She's Kim, he's Drakken. Topical humor.
@@xiphos8219 Oh! Now I get it! Thank you for the clarification.
Who r u?
He somehow just oozes friendliness, seems like a really cool guy to hang around. Not to mention, I could listen to some of his voices whole day.
I love that John is honest with these reviews. I also wished some videos of people do his joker impression were shown.
Now it made sense why bender looked like that when he turned human, they made him look like his voice actor! That’s awesome!!!!!
WoooOOOooo!!!
RollingxBigshot ohh!?.. OHHHHH!?. S#!@
Fuhka Dasystum but he just said whoooo.,? no that just gas escaping the folds of his fat
JEEZ
@@EddieLacefield lol calm down, they're quoting bender when he turns human
I love it when you hear a little bit of Bender peek through his regular voice.
It's more like Jake the dog but his Bender voice is somewhat similar.
@@blackmetal4546 I never watched adventure time, so I'm more familiar with Bender.
@@blackmetal4546 it's a mix of both
absolutely love marcus fenix, best gaming franchise and so influential on so many people, didn’t know he did it but now i’m forever grateful he created it!
This guy is the king of voice acting comedy, every time I watch something with John DiMaggio, I end up laughing until my sides split.
he is honestly a king when it comes to voice acting because he is still doing the whole gears franchise and a bunch of shows and his voices make up my entire childhood. i grew up kim possible, adventure time, futurama, and still growing up with gears.
Ally Kat I love when I randomly hear his voice in something 😂
Bender has the best voice
It’s crazy I remember watching the first episode of adventure time I never thought it would be “apart of my childhood” but it was and I miss Finn and Jake so very much and love that show
I love that he has such multifaceted voices, but when you hear one of his characters you absolutely know it’s him. Especially in the laughs. It’s almost like his voice is a brand.
And I like ya'and I want cha'
I'm so glad Futurama is returning. I've really been hoping it would. I have seen every episode multiple times.
John is on my long list of fav voice actors. Others include (but aren't limited too) Tress MacNeille, Nancy Cartwright, Tom Kenny, Richard Steven Horvitz, and Tara Strong.
first guy is dead on for like that season one episode where bender stops drinking when fry moves out of their apartment thats actually nuts
hooked on a theevan I thought so too. He was the best out of all the impersonators IMO.
Someone impersonates John DiMaggio
John: *Job Security* 🤘
I need John to release an album where he sings as Marcus Fenix. I think it'd be really interesting
Marcus Fenix voice gave me goosebumps
The dude in the Jake hat has been lied to by friends and family
LMFAO
@@chaoswraith right?
Man he looked offended listening too that one
Lmao that kid missed the whole meaning of voice impressions
I think that kid was just being himself but thought the hat turned him into Jake
god i love him hes so chill and talented
the thing about voice impressions is not just doing a voice its becoming a character and brining it to life.
When he shouted "DOM!"
Everybody felt that.
Scratch one grub
.....all around me are familiar places, worn out places, worn out faces
"Area secure, look around for ammo"
F for dom, and his sacrifice :|
“Dipshit”
I got way too emotional learning that Jake is just John DiMaggio with a hug around it. That's Jake, just a great big brother
The problem is that all his voices are just modifications of his own voice. So unless your voice is similar to his you will struggle because he has a distinctive gravelly voice already.
SHUT UP SHUT UP
5:03 This scene will never get old with Marcus Fenix 😂
10:18 “it’s basically my voice but with a hug around it”. Perfect description of his voice
THEMeta Sigma cool Xbox one pfp 🤝
Xbox One pfp
I love how some actors doing the reviews of their impressions gave a lot of "A for effort" kind of praise, and John is just giving dead on critiques of their impressions and explaining exactly why their impressions aren't quite up to snuff, love this guy
I didn't know he did Marcus Fenix I loved the first gears of war trilogy it was some of my favorite co-op games to play.
And I'm sure that there's many people besides myself that grew up with Futurama and it holds a special place in our hearts.
I feel like not a lot of people can do their own characters off set but John can do it perfect
Alternate title: How to politely listen and phrase compliments regardless your feelings
Criticisms
Him bursting out into laughter at one of the impressions is amazing, no holding back, makes for such a better video
I so appreciate that his voices for different characters respect the characters' uniqueness. I'd never have known he was the voice behind all those characters.. usually you can tell!
Being a voice actor is something I always wanted to do and these videos are so helpful and fun too watch
I need more of John DiMaggio doing bender on camera in my life. He’s so much fun to watch
Joshua Lisciarelli BLASPHEMY
I love both!
I never realized how much I needed this.
Futurama is my comfort show.
And gears was my jam.
Bruh adventure time and Final fantasy X are better
Sames! I love both so much!
TheCrazyNintendoMan ! It’s almost like people have different opinions...
@@toooydoeur it depends
@@toooydoeur maybe if you're a child
Now we need someone to animate him as jake doing this whole thing, would be great
DiMaggio is a perfect example of not needing much vocal range to be a good voice actor
Justin Roiland is the king of that realm.
@@soldierside365 Alex Hirsch is more talented, and Roiland does like 2 voices with a stutter.
@@soldierside365no
DUDE, this was the BEST one of these ever! It kept his reviews and reactions 100% honest. This is why I love John DiMaggio. Mad respect for him. No fake praise for the impressions just because they are doing his voices.
Who else gets embarrassed when people do voices of characters? But you're fine when the actual voice actors do the voices of the characters we all know and love.
Well duh
people seem to love when I do family guy characters. I get embarrassed when people want me to trot it out on cue
J. Mascis love your music!
It’s secondhand embarrassment.
Is this an actual question or are you pissed off?
This man plays 2 of my favorite characters of all time. What a legend.
This man has my respect for voicing so many of my favorite characters in shows.
John DiMaggio doesn’t grade on a curve
I really liked his Joker, his Joker voice was so menacing and he really took that voice in a different direction.
One of the few versions I like besides Hamill
@@Shadowfire204 Troy Baker is one too
2021: Job security
2023: you’re not coming back
Hulu is literally watching this video right now and taking notes
Then they threw it in the fireplace.
I was hoping for him to talk about Schnitzel, it's the same two syllables over and over and over again. The acting is in pitch, emphasis, emotion, and pacing.

@@Jojo-uc9or .... Ra-da.
@@Jojo-uc9or "That's disgusting!"
Yummy
Radda radda radda
Love to see the actor behind the many voices I grew up on. 😁🤙
John: that's job security
I absolutely loved futurama back in the day. I love hearing benders voice lol
I used to really love futurama. I still do, but I used to, too.
i want him to be voice bender on the futurama revival, they need to pay him more
This guy does a killer take on Joker in Batman: Under the Red Hood that I still remember loving to this day
Yes!! Probably my 2nd favorite joker (Mark Hamil being first obviously)
It wasn't my favorite but it worked well enough.
Loved that version
Call me crazy, but I might prefer his Joker over Hamill.
"Jake is just my voice with a hug around it."
Information I definitely needed to know that has dramatically improved my life.
