Of course, they didn't actually voice *together* in WCA...

Really? They dislike each other that much, or just happened to record the voices at different times?
 
Oh, no, McDowell apparently didn't want to fly out to do his voicework -- so he recorded it all at home and mailed it in... everybody else was supposedly a bit put out.
 
I just watched Titanic with my girlfriend (three hours...even SHE was bored...). I could've sworn that that Zane's assistant was Warner.
 
Yes, that was Warner in Titanic. The man is a good actor, but is a movie whore. He'll work in anything with a slight budget to it.

Aye, that doesn't surprise me with McDowell, LOAF. He still likes to think he's in his 20s. He also yells a great deal and is seemingly a little...off kilter. ;)

Supposedly, my friend Garrett's GF, the one who was friend's with Griffen Hamill (Mark's Second Son) also sat around with McDowell once and talked about Hamlet. I'm beginning to think she's full of Kilrathi Cr*p.

In the new movie *Saving Grace* Tcheky Icaryo is the star and makes a drug dealer

That sounds weird, at least to me, since that movie came out a while back here in the US. But, hey, I can say that he's in the new movie Kiss of the Dragon with Jet Li! He's everywhere, I tells ya!

Oh, and lighten up, LeHah. You can say crap, I do believe. :)
 
Talking BS is one thing; BSing about not one, but two of my fav actors is somethin else.

ANything that pays even;)
 
If you want another interesting take on David Warner, watch Star Trek 6. He's there alright, and in full klingon make-up no less. (The chancelor)

-AD.
 
Hmmm, how many times has it been brought up that Warner's in ST6? Many. But no one ever mentions Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: The Secret of the Ooze! ;)
 
LOL. TMNT2 is actually the first movie I remember seeing Warner in. That was a sad, pathetic movie compared to the original. Warner's best role can still be found in animation as either The Archmage in Disney's "Gargoyles" or Ra's Al Ghul in the Batman Animated Series.

Or, if you perfer, the late 70s film "Time After Time" along side Malcolm McDowell, the true Tolwyn. That film was also one of the last that Miklos Rozsa scored.

...And if you don't know who Rozsa is, I might cry... :(

Miklos Rozsa
18 April 1907 - 27 July 1995

Biography from Leonard Maltin's Movie Encyclopedia:

One of the all-time great film composers, Rozsa has a résumé that reads like a checklist of Hollywood classics. His career began in Leipzig in the 1930s; from there he studied in Paris and went on to London to work with Alexander Korda. The two collaborated on The Thief of Bagdad (1940), which brought the composer to Hollywood and earned him an Academy Award nomination, the first of many. (Among the others: 1941's Lydia and Sundown 1942's Jungle Book 1943's The Woman of the Town 1945's A Song to Remember 1946's The Killers 1951's Quo Vadis? 1952's Ivanhoe and 1953's Julius Caesar) Rozsa stayed on to begin a career that spanned four decades. His scores were noted for full-bodied orchestrations in the European Romantic tradition; as a result, he was much in demand both for small, intense melodramas such as Double Indemnity (1944) and The Lost Weekend (1945), both of which rated Oscar nominations, and for epics such as King of Kings and El Cid (both 1961, the latter an Oscar nominee for Best Score and Song). In fact, he scored nearly every single type of film there is. Rozsa won three Academy Awards for best original score: Spellbound (1945, which made pioneering use of the theremin, an electronic instrument), A Double Life (1947), and Ben-Hur (1959). Less active in the 1980s; his last full score was written for Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid (1982).
 
That was a sad, pathetic movie compared to the original.

Eh, it wasn't that bad. Turtles 3, though, I disliked, even as an eight year old. Saw it once many years ago, never watched it again.
 
I forgot about 3, though I know Elias Koteas returned as Casey Jones. He's a really good actor, esp in "The Prophecy" and "The Thin Red Line"
 
Never seen those movies. But I did see Look Who's Talking Too and he's in that, so... ;)
