    Clancy Brown is the man! I remember being terrified of him in Highlander and then loving his voice work in all the cartoons I grew up with. What an awesome dude.

      Reread the sentence. Lex Luthor on screen not Clancy Brown. And Clancy started as an actor on screen. A lot of the roles being iconic as well.

      I suspect more are like to say "Mr Krabs, you're so greedy!" (if they actually heard him do the voice in person) . Bigger audience over the years maybe?
      I'm like you though, and saw Highlander twice when in cinema and maybe 5 times on DVD and loved the Starship Troopers because of him and Michael Ironside (even Rue McClanahan the xeno-biology teacher) - loved the older roles in that film. All the young actors seemed like "actors to be" - though I loved it.

    You can tell Clancy enjoyed acting, he looked for the fun and found it. Many actors miss this and i think it takes away from the power having fun playing a character brings. Clancy's roles are all iconic and he was great in all the ones that i have seen. And knowing he voiced so many cartoon characters, and had fun doing so, made him a part of many peoples growing up.

    I have always been delighted to see Clancy in a movie because I see him as all the layers and characters that are hiding in there with him. The last time I was pleased in that way was watching Cowboys and Aliens the first time. He appears as a gun barrel to the protagonists head and a voice that implies "Someone's done fucked up bigtime." I hadn't yet decided if I was going to like the movie or not, but at that point I didn't care anymore now that Clancy Brown was in Town.

  • @hinduismwithpremananddasbhagat

    Seems like he was always going to be great with vocal acting. 🙂 The Kurgan character alone was a great lesson in delivering dramatic performances via SYLLABIC RESONANCE... alliteration, elongated vowels from one moment to another, etc. It all matters.
    Hmmm. 🤔 He'd probably make an excellent bad guy (either of the main ones) in my own series. I never really thought of that until this moment. Too bad there's no way Clancy would ever hear about any of it! 😁

  • @paulgee4336
    @paulgee4336 3 роки тому

    Top of Show: Refers to a set amount of money that is budgeted in a show for its guest star roles. For example, a role might say that the show “Does not break top of show,” which means that no matter who the actor is, the show will not pay that person more than what their top of show rate is. Top of show rates vary on the type of show (1 hour, ½ hour), and the show’s union affiliation (SAG, AFTRA). More well-known actors are typically offered more than top of show (assuming the show breaks top), and may be offered rates such as “double top,” i.e. twice the show’s top of show rate.
