I've said it a thousand times and I'll say it a thousand more. This guy is not just a voice actor, he is THE voice actor. He's funny, he's sophistocated (most of the time), and of course he's done the voices of hundreds if not thousands of characters that we all know and love, from Johnny Test to Ratchet to Obi Wan Kenobi. Forever James Arnold Taylor will be THE man. Keep up to the good work!
James, you're an amazing guy... I'm a guitarist battling carpal tunnel syndrome, and the end message was very inspiring. Thank god you came out on the better end of your situation. ☝️❤️
knight gaurd I know but still they're both great. I think the true series finale of the Clone Wars should have been the same as Clone Wars. The Separatists attacking Coruscant and Grievous has kidnapped the Chancellor. He flies back to the invisible hand and orders the droids to hold him in the general quarters. Just as he is about to order the retreat. A droid alerts him that republic reinforcements are exiting hyperspace and Grievous realises its Obi-Wan and Anakin. Cut to one of the Venator-Class Star Destroyers, where Anakin and Obi-Wan board their fighters and have a bit of snark to snark combat. The fighters take off and that's it.
John Watson Yeah but still considering the fact that the old Clone Wars is no longer canon, they need to create a new ending. That being said, i still like the original ending to TCW.
@Carrdude101 Well out of about 150 voices in the show you didn't like one I guess I'm okay. I've doubled for Shia many times, hopefully when I did you didn't know the difference then. Either way thanks for watching, Best-JAT
His talent is incredible! I can see why he gets a lot of work. I got to know his name from Clone Wars, but I didn't realize that I've been hearing his voice in so many other things as well. =) The only thing that bothers me about this presentation is how scripted it is. It kinda makes his jokes fall flat because they sound too rehearsed. But whatever; he did way better in front of an audience than I would have done.
You are most likely the greatest voice actor of all time. You inspired me to find more possibilities with my own voice. I came to find out I sound similar to a lot of well know voices. Thanks, simply wonderful.
The amount of talent spewing from this video is phenomenal! If you watch TV on a daily basis, you probably can't go a day without hearing one of JAT's voices. Super!
I remember showing my brother this video and he was in awe over how talented James Arnold Taylor as as he only knew him as Obi-Wan Kenobi on The Clone Wars
I was only able to watch that on here. James inspires me. He encourages me to follow my dreams that some of my family members said I should give up. He inspires me to follow my dreams of becoming a successful actress. God bless James.
Bravo! Just as a book is usually better than the movie because in the book, our imaginations rule, you help us harness the power of our imaginations with your voice. It's magic. Thank you, James
I've always been a fan of voice actors. They are the unsung heroes of all showbiz (incl. games there :P) and almost NEVER get the recognition they deserve. But you sir are my official new favourite. Such a diverse spread of voices and characters coupled with a fantastic live stage presense is a rare thing these days. JAT, I tip my hat to you, you're amazing.
...Holy crap. Wow. The entire time you were doing those tons of voices I was staring at my computer screen with my mouth hanging open. I am thoroughly impressed and I can only hope and aspire to be as talented as you are. I applaud you.
Loved this show i was lucky enough to see it multiple times live at Disney. You absolulty blew me away. Thank you so much for posting this now i can enjoy it again and again :D. You truly are an inspiration and your show was absolutly fantastic. Keep up the great work James. God bless
I so wish I could have gone to see it in person! But, even though I wasn't seeing it live, I still felt the impression of it. You're such an inspiration for me, JAT, so thank you so much!
That inspirational speech at the end was the best part of the video he is an inspiration and im so glad he voiced Obi in the clone wars he was the best role
Amazing work on Star Wars Clone Wars. Hey everyone, like my status if you would love for Matt as Anakin, James arnold Taylor as Obi-wan, and some of the other voice actors record a podcast of them doing scenes from revenge of sith
James, I don't know if you read this but MAN! you are just amazing. Being a huge TMNT fan I just LOVE your performance as Leonardo. Now I can't read a single comic book with them without hearing you. Thank you so much for all the voices through the years. Your Michael J. Fox and your Doc are almost better than the real thing. And I can't wait to see what you do next. Hope to be half as great as you one day. I don't wanna be too ambitious. Half as good will do. Thanks again. -Martin
That was awesome!! That last part of the video with the advice was amazing. The intro was pretty funny too. James Arnold Taylor = Probably one of the best voice actors in the country.
Of all the impressions videos on UA-cam, this is by far the best display i have seen of vocal talent. You can even voice a pretty convincing woman. I congratulate you, and your first agent needs an award.
Great show...the tons of work you put into it is evident...thank you so much for sharing it with those of us not in attendance....your positive message and encouragement are fantastic and helpful...thanks James, you rock!
I have always wanted to be an actor and/or voice actor and you have always been my inspiration for voice acting, even when I was playing Ratchet & Clank and didn't know it was you and I kept hearing your voice everywhere it was your work that kept me interested in voice acting and I still want to pursue it and acting thanks to you.
James I am truly blessed to see your performance. It was fantastic to see you yet again show the life of a voice actor. Also the ending with the positive message really got to me. So thanks for that, and all of your wise words on twitter and facebook. Well enough of me gushing and getting all fanboyish... On a side note... Hopefully one day I'll see it live at Star Wars Celebration or maybe you should come up to Canada for some expos. *hint hint*
Impressive stuff James. It did seem like a culmination of your past experiences as an actor all placed into one show. It was really awesome to be able to see this on youtube. Thank you for taking the time to upload this :)
Wow. The overall message he was sending was really inspirational. I never realized he did all those voices either. Hearing some of my favorite music bands in the video made me happy too. XD
Wow. This video honestly leaves me speechless, You sir are the most inspiring person I've ever seen. Your speech was amazing. All your voices are crazy. Im definately a fan. My prayers go out to you and all wishes for your carrer. I love what you do and keep up the good work. This is life changing.
I freaked out when I saw that he was the voice of Tidus in Final Fantasy X, I've been a fan of both him and the game and have never noticed....wow... I love the show and I have to agree. James, you have got to be the greatest voice actor of all time!
James, this would be great as a double-bill during another tour of Star Wars in Concert. Please bring this show to Star Wars Celebration VI next August - using that great theater @ the Orange County Convetion Center. :)
I teared up in relation to the story of the toxic mold. I will have to watch the longer version "Talking to Myself" because this was beyond entertaining.
That was awesome!!! I'm a big fan of all things star wars, and so is my 4 year old. He loves The clone wars. We were watching episode III and he says to me..."Daddy what's wrong with Obi-wan's voice? He sounds sick. Not like obi-wan from Clone wars" So to my kid, you are the real Obi-wan. Keep up the great work!
Your awesome James, You have inspired me to follow my dreams. I now have an animation and a commercial demo and I am now working real hard at getting a movie trailer voice. When I get an animation gig, I will really have to thank you for getting me to where I am. again, thank you James for the inspiration.
WOW!!! This is awesome! I live in Finland and I'm so happy that you uploaded this since I can't make it to Disney Land in person. You're absolutely phenomenal.
Wow. We are inspired. I do character voiceover (Mickey Mouse, Yoda, Hiccup, Joker, Davey Jones, etc. - only small gigs) and our teen voiceover daughter does a bit of professional voice work, but this video has inspired me again to get "back into character a bit more" thanks and we also have faith one day either or both of us will voice in a major studio. Blessings.
James you are the best Obi Wan Kenobi Ever!!! I have no idea if you reading this, but I just heard the news about CW being cancelled!!! I just want you to know Obi Wan is my absolute fav character because of you, and I am really gonna miss the clone wars and hearing your obi wan. You have done such an amazing job with the character and you are such a talented voice actor. Thanks for all the great performances - Maddie Kuwada May the force be with you!
I loved it live and I love it now! You really inspired me with your show! I hope you are at SWW again next year! Keep up the good work! Cant wait for next season of The Clone wars!
Holly crap, that part where you said "you were my brother anakin, I loved you" I went back to the movie and was impressed cause it was incredibly alike.
The fact that he can do all those impressions without taking a break is beyond impressive
yes
This James Arnold Taylor does a great impression of me
Obi-wan Kenobi hello there.
starshine skywalker General Kenobi!
And your other man Ewan McGregor
This guy is amazing! Why have I never heard of him before?!?
EnderHeart5911. Oh, you have, but just didn't know it.
like Lynnea said, you absolutely have lol
He is General Kenobi’s voice over
That chain of voices is one of the most amazing things I've ever seen.
...well, heard. A thing of beauty!
"Anakin. Anakin! ANAKIN!"
I've said it a thousand times and I'll say it a thousand more. This guy is not just a voice actor, he is THE voice actor. He's funny, he's sophistocated (most of the time), and of course he's done the voices of hundreds if not thousands of characters that we all know and love, from Johnny Test to Ratchet to Obi Wan Kenobi.
Forever James Arnold Taylor will be THE man. Keep up to the good work!
It's official. James Arnold Taylor is a god in voice acting. Right up there with Mel Blanc
James, you're an amazing guy... I'm a guitarist battling carpal tunnel syndrome, and the end message was very inspiring. Thank god you came out on the better end of your situation. ☝️❤️
21:08 is it wrong for Matt Latner and James Arnold Taylor to dub the Mustafar fight over.
John Watson Yes we should do it.
Meh Ewan is great in it just get Matt to do the voice for anakin I EVERYTHING
knight gaurd I know but still they're both great. I think the true series finale of the Clone Wars should have been the same as Clone Wars. The Separatists attacking Coruscant and Grievous has kidnapped the Chancellor. He flies back to the invisible hand and orders the droids to hold him in the general quarters.

John Watson Yeah but still considering the fact that the old Clone Wars is no longer canon, they need to create a new ending. That being said, i still like the original ending to TCW.
Totally, Hayden Christensen sucked as Anakin
@Carrdude101 Well out of about 150 voices in the show you didn't like one I guess I'm okay. I've doubled for Shia many times, hopefully when I did you didn't know the difference then. Either way thanks for watching, Best-JAT
James Arnold Taylor *In your Obi-Wan Voice* You’re a legend!!!
You do a great Nicholas Cage and Christopher Walken
His talent is incredible! I can see why he gets a lot of work. I got to know his name from Clone Wars, but I didn't realize that I've been hearing his voice in so many other things as well. =)
The only thing that bothers me about this presentation is how scripted it is. It kinda makes his jokes fall flat because they sound too rehearsed. But whatever; he did way better in front of an audience than I would have done.
M. Strain Jr. ratchet and clank*
The opening was amazingXD
Sparkle Scribe I knoe

I remember showing my brother this video and he was in awe over how talented James Arnold Taylor as as he only knew him as Obi-Wan Kenobi on The Clone Wars
when he's not trying, he sounds like Ratchet.
Because he IS Ratchet.
@@Chunginitup And Tidus.
Johnny test
Cause he is lmfao
And Obi Wan.
I was only able to watch that on here. James inspires me. He encourages me to follow my dreams that some of my family members said I should give up. He inspires me to follow my dreams of becoming a successful actress. God bless James.
He has a young voice for someone his age, but he can do so many voices. He is so awesome.
Bravo! Just as a book is usually better than the movie because in the book, our imaginations rule, you help us harness the power of our imaginations with your voice. It's magic. Thank you, James
James is the one if the all time greats of voice acting in my opinion.
i hope someday i posses the ability to speak in that many tones of voices. that was amazing
I've always been a fan of voice actors. They are the unsung heroes of all showbiz (incl. games there :P) and almost NEVER get the recognition they deserve. But you sir are my official new favourite. Such a diverse spread of voices and characters coupled with a fantastic live stage presense is a rare thing these days. JAT, I tip my hat to you, you're amazing.

JAT is amazing! I never miss his show at Star Wars Weekends at Disneyworld. I'm glad to see it on youtube!
Loved this show i was lucky enough to see it multiple times live at Disney. You absolulty blew me away. Thank you so much for posting this now i can enjoy it again and again :D. You truly are an inspiration and your show was absolutly fantastic. Keep up the great work James. God bless
Mr Taylor, you are an incredibly inspirational person, I have great respect for you and admire your passion for your art.
May the voice be with you.
I so wish I could have gone to see it in person! But, even though I wasn't seeing it live, I still felt the impression of it. You're such an inspiration for me, JAT, so thank you so much!
That he’s voiced a bunch of characters on Star Wars and I never noticed and that some time he would voice one or more characters in the same time
That inspirational speech at the end was the best part of the video he is an inspiration and im so glad he voiced Obi in the clone wars he was the best role
Amazing work on Star Wars Clone Wars. Hey everyone, like my status if you would love for Matt as Anakin, James arnold Taylor as Obi-wan, and some of the other voice actors record a podcast of them doing scenes from revenge of sith
James Arnold Taylor = The Man of 1,000 Voices!
I watched this before years ago maybe when it was uploaded but damn that dub over the final scene between Anakin and Kenobi, so real!
James Arnold Taylor = my hero. you have a godgiven talent. it's amazing how you can switch so fast between them!!
James, I don't know if you read this but MAN! you are just amazing. Being a huge TMNT fan I just LOVE your performance as Leonardo. Now I can't read a single comic book with them without hearing you. Thank you so much for all the voices through the years. Your Michael J. Fox and your Doc are almost better than the real thing. And I can't wait to see what you do next.
Hope to be half as great as you one day.
I don't wanna be too ambitious.
Half as good will do.

I have always wanted to be an actor and/or voice actor and you have always been my inspiration for voice acting, even when I was playing Ratchet & Clank and didn't know it was you and I kept hearing your voice everywhere it was your work that kept me interested in voice acting and I still want to pursue it and acting thanks to you.
He did an extended version which had all the same material plus some more. It was amazing.
James I am truly blessed to see your performance. It was fantastic to see you yet again show the life of a voice actor. Also the ending with the positive message really got to me. So thanks for that, and all of your wise words on twitter and facebook. Well enough of me gushing and getting all fanboyish... On a side note...

Absolutely loved putting aside half an hour of my time to watch this. Keep up the excellent work James!
This never fails to make me laugh. I especially love the old time radio part!

You are my inspiration in voice acting. God Bless You!

He's got an inspirational book called JAT 365, which is 365 days of inspiration. He's doing a series on it right now on this very UA-cam channel!
James you are the best Obi Wan Kenobi Ever!!! I have no idea if you reading this, but I just heard the news about CW being cancelled!!! I just want you to know Obi Wan is my absolute fav character because of you, and I am really gonna miss the clone wars and hearing your obi wan.

If you read these comments, JAT. The last message of having a dream...i was close to crying. So inspirational. Thanks, Master Taylor X
JAT You inspire me daily to be a voice actor. Because of you I finally got enough courage to audition for a web series roll to replace someone.
Man, that was awesome!
you are have got to be, the best voice actor ever, of all time...
UA-cam recommendations seem to be great today, found your channel. Didn’t know you had one. Just great skill with your performance sir.
I loved it live and I love it now! You really inspired me with your show! I hope you are at SWW again next year! Keep up the good work! Cant wait for next season of The Clone wars!
Speechless and amazed

Holly crap, that part where you said "you were my brother anakin, I loved you" I went back to the movie and was impressed cause it was incredibly alike.
WOW, Just, WOW!!!
Absolutely Great!
THAT WAS AMAAAAAAAAAAAZING (*claps like a maniac*)
HOW ON EARTH DID THAT THEATER NOT HAVE A FULL HOUSE?!?!
that is Strong by matthew west in the background at the beginning.
God James is so talented!
Great use of "Hands and Feet" at the finale!
Easily my favorite voice actor!! That end speech was truly inspiring. I one day hope to voice act!!
