Who is your favorite Pixar voice actor of all time?
My favorite would definitely have to be Dave Foley. I love his voice, for some reason – it’s so “jittery” and ecstatic. (snigger)
Mitch - Have you seen Thank God You’re Here yet? I’d be surprised if you haven’t since you love David Foley so much.
I can’t really choose a favorite one. They’re all great. 
Well, my favourite actor that has been in a Pixar film has to be Steve Buscemi, but there’s so many other talented actors that it is hard to choose.
Bill - Nope – haven’t seen it yet. But I will one of these days, so don’t worry! (snigger) 
lizardgirl - Steven Buscemi delivered an excellent performance as the character of Randall in Monsters Inc., but I also liked him as the voice of Templeton the rat in Charlotte’s Web. Just brilliant.
Hard for me to pick a favorite. I love Brad Garrett, Madeline Kahn, Jonathan Harris, Joe Ranft, Bob Peterson, Joan Cusack, Steve Buscemi, Jason Lee, Dave Foley, Lou Romano, David Hyde-Pierce, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, John Ratzenberger, Bonnie Hunt, Richard Kind, … probably more … 
C’mon, who else but John Ratzenberger? He’s like Pixar’s flaghip guy! 
[size=92]He da BOOOOMB. !
And Lou Romano, of course![/size]
1)Bonnie Hunt
(Does Owen Wilson count?) 
2)John R
Owen Wilson does count.
John Rats (I like to call him that lol)
My top five are :
1.Willem Dafoe (Gill)
2.Albert Brooks(Marlin)
3.John Ratzenberger
4.Ellen Degeneres(Dory)
5. Paul Newman(Doc Hudson)
Sorry Paul … I first had him at number three , but then I thought , ’ Hey , what about John and Ellen ’ ?
Peter O’Toole (Anton Ego)
- Paul Newman
- Ellen DeGeneres
- Owen Wilson
- John Ratzenberger
- Albert Brooks
I just looooove the role of Paul Newman as Doc.
But this is just my top five, I think Pixar does and amazing job when they pick up the right actor for the right character!
So you’re a Doc Hudson fan … hey lennonluvr9 we got another one ! yay !
Paul did really good , but Willem , in my eyes , was amazing at the role of a mysterious character ! All scary , yet nice … so many roles in one part …
When you think about it , Dafoe and Newman’s characters have almost the same role . You know , to be the mysterious character and teach a lesson or two .
Mitch - Would Patton Oswalt be your second favorite Pixar voice actor?
Gasduude - Oh yeah, we can’t forget John "Ratz"enberger! I love doing his voice – it’s so…bouncy. (snigger)
Maggie - I agree – Paul Newman delivered an excellent performance as our favorite Hudson Hornet. His long, drawn out tone suits Doc’s personality perfectly.
Bill - Haha – cha, we’ll have to see about that when the film comes out, huh? You might be right!
My favorite actors that has been in a pixar film would be a toss up between John Goodman (Sulley) and Jim Varney (Slinky Dog).
They lend themselves so well to their characters, I could not choose one over the other.
I was sad when I heard Jim had passed away but, bless his soul, he left his mark within Slinky Dog. As for John, his voice made me fall in love with Sulley before I cared to know actors by name.
I don’t mean to be a party pooper, but Patton Oswalt didn’t seem really “into” Pixar…or at least Brad Bird.
From Brad Bird: The Big Cheese:
PO: He’s done somthing about a robot…and maybe something about some superheroes? I’m not really familier with the subject…
Now maybe I’m reading way too into this, but if your going to star a lead role in a movie, wouldn’t you at least know the names of the movies the Director your working for made? I don’t know…
On the other hand, wasn’t it he who said at the end something like: “It’s a Pixar movie…that says it all.”?
Hmm.
Gasduude: I believe he was just joking around. =P He can’t be serious, lol!
