Top 20 Over the Top Voice Acting Performances

guys get your Titanic rears in gear and kick some a lesbian but whoa was my hair out welcome to Miz Mojo and today we're counting down our picks for the top 20 over-the-top voice acting performances look the tigers are just playing tag with the envelope with their teeth for this list we're looking at the most talented voice actors who went above and beyond to breathe life into their characters which voice actor do you think always goes harder than any of us deserve get animated about it in the comments number 20 D Bradley Baker various this multi-faceted voice actor can really do it all no I am sick of this guy always mouthing off and telling me what to do oh you don't like it well credits in series SpongeBob SquarePants atar The Last Airbender Gravity Falls and countless others Baker was pretty much the voice of our childhoods whether we knew it or not he's also the voice behind several animated animals perhaps most iconically Phineas and ferbs Perry the Platypus but if you want to see some major skill we'd suggest switching on Ben 10 Omniverse where he brought so many characters to life he reportedly over exerted his throat but perhaps it is time to share a little my object was stolen off an Armored Transport three days ago when I was intending to Rob myself but I digress I love to have seen him record the voices for all those clone troopers in the animated Star Wars Universe talk about bringing the force and more and echo echo is closer to the the Clone the basic clone voice but he's often got a grumpier uh tone to his voice number 19. Josh gadd the Frozen franchise Samantha Samantha this stage and Screen Actor has lent his distinguishable voice to several notable characters including Lewis in Ice Age continental Drift and Chuck from The Angry Birds movie franchise but we all know there's one that stands out above them all and he's worth melting for Dad brought something magical to Olaf improvising many of the lines we're still quoting today oh look at that I've been impaled the actor also shared an anecdote about how his voice kind of Saved Olaf from being cut from the movie Frozen without Olaf what were they thinking I uh I just found this out though I had no idea and she said yeah because of you Olaf live this lovable snowman is a flurry of fun and steals any scene he's in and that's largely thanks to Gad no wonder he's gotten to be the star of many of the franchise's shorts number 18. Kristen Schall various this actress has a distinct voice that is Taylor Made for animation indeed it has served her well over the years I don't know where I am we're either in a cafe in Paris or a coffee shop in New Jersey I'm pretty sure I just came back from the doctor with life-changing news her unique sound can be heard in Bob's Burgers Gravity Falls and BoJack Horseman among many others the only reason I wear this shirt is because some company paid me eight thousand dollars to wear it and I don't even need the money just liked that someone still wanted me to wear their shirt shawl seamlessly pairs her one-of-a-kind vocals with Incredible comedic timing that never fails to Breathe new life into her characters with just a slight change of intonation she can go from sweet and unassuming to wildly unhinged while still keeping her characters very likable I love love love it except for this little guy he's gonna give me the creeps this isn't happening mother this isn't happening right has the world's gone crazy in fact her performances are so exceptional that some casting directors are known to put out calls for a Kristen Schall type which sounds like a huge compliment if you ask us aren't you gonna get in on this I don't really dance yeah you do mom used to dress him up in a lamb costume and make him do Emmy dance number 17. Cummings various Jim Cummings is a voice acting icon with around 400 credits spanning various media oh you know girl look at here let's get dangerous yeah oh you know that's right Let's Get Dangerous he's portrayed over the top characters like Aladdin's razul that titular Winnie the Pooh and his bouncing pal Tigger Rey from The Princess and the Frog and Mickey Mouse's antagonist Pete but this actor doesn't just give his all when he's speaking he proven that he can go harder than most while singing too in the dark of the night from Anastasia is a delightfully excessive number elevated to new heights by Cummings vocals [Music] he also helped out with the singing voice of Scar in The Lion King after actor Jeremy Irons fatigued his voice during be prepared [Music] number 16 Jack Black various a character actor who also happens to be an a-lister and a gifted musician Jack Black does it all and does it with everything he's got that of course includes his voice acting whether it's supporting roles in films like Ice Age and Shark Tale video game voices like his award-winning work in Brutal Legend or leading roles in franchises like Kung Fu Panda I'm gonna do something I never thought I'd be able to do I'm gonna teach kung fu however the role that cemented jablinski as a king of over-the-top voice acting and the Koopas was Bowser in the Super Mario Brothers movie not sure if you knew who I am but I'm about to rule the world an evil villain with a larger than life personality and the gruff commanding voice to match Bowser also has a softer side as evidenced by the viral hit song Black himself helped Penn for the film peaches peaches peaches peaches peaches peaches peaches peaches peaches peaches number 15 Tim Curry The Wild Thornberrys franchise and Fern Gully the last rainforest theater film television Voice work is there anything Tim Curry can't do while we couldn't possibly list every occasion where he goes above and beyond we'd be remiss not to single out his role as Nigel Thornberry in The Wild Thornberrys franchise look at him go a regular lightning bolt that is as far as caterpillars go we don't think anyone could have pulled off The Eccentric life-loving Adventurer as convincingly or endearingly as Curry plus since the actor typically plays villains it was great seeing him break the mold and give his all to something entirely different that being said he also makes being bad looks so good hexis from Fern Gully the last rainforest is such a brilliant dramatic and creepy villain that he is still giving us nightmares [Music] number 14 Alan Tudyk various imagine being such an accomplished and versatile voice actor that Folks at Disney reportedly W their good luck charm since lending his voice to King Candy in 2012's Wreck-It Ralph Tudyk has gone on to play some of the animation Giant's most eccentric characters I'm turbo the greatest racer ever and I did not reprogram this world to let you and that holocausted riddled warthog take it away from me Duke weaselton in zootopia Frozen's Duke of Weselton and scroll and disenchanted barely scratched the surface also can we talk about how he didn't even need to utter a single intelligible word to make heihei one of moana's breakout characters now that's a real Testament to his comedic skills naturally Disney cast him as Valentino The Goat in the 2023 animated musical wish after all he is basically the goat of Disney voice acting still as your closest partner in trade I think it's only fitting that I offer you your first dancers Queen number 13. Mark Hamill various most people know him as Luke Skywalker but Mark Hamill is also an accomplished voice actor he's voiced many characters across DC and Marvel based animations in several Scooby-Doo reincarnations and plenty more I wiped out all of the data in your main this the last and only copy of your work what's it worth to you well he's epic in everything he does we can't help but single out his work as Joker in numerous projects the comic book villain demands that its actor pull out every stop and Hamill does not disappoint he has the skills to create a character that can make us laugh albeit nervously while chilling us to the very bone you need me like I need skin rash maybe so but I know something you don't know I know how the bat thinks unfortunately Hamill has reportedly decided to retire from the role still it was a spectacular run and opened the door for him to bring other animated bad guys to life number 12. Patrick Warburton various Joe Swanson from Family Guy Ken from B-movie Buzz Lightyear from Buzz Lightyear of Star Command we'd recognize that voice anywhere oh that b is living my life Let It Go Kenny like will this nightmare end amazingly the actor doesn't consider himself a chameleon when it comes to voice acting but we reckon his impressive list of credits would beg to differ perhaps no character of his is as marvelously and memorably out there as Cronk from The Emperor's New Groove Warburton plays the endearing dummy so brilliantly that we can almost forgive him for being isma's henchmen especially as they share such an entertaining Rapport oh right the poison the poison for Cusco the poison chosen specially to kill Cusco cusco's poison yes bad poison got you covered is it any surprise he took center stage in the movie's 2005 sequel spin-off warburton's performance is as delicious as Kronk's signature spinach Puffs number 11. Steve Carell the Despicable Me franchise being an unsuccessful villain isn't easy however with the right charismatic voice to pull off his Moody and sarcastic demeanor Gru quickly became a fan favorite they made him laugh they made him cry never should have said goodbye according to Corel finding the line between funny and threatening was tricky but he definitely found the right balance reportedly he tried out several voices on his kids and ultimately chose the one that made them laugh next we are going to steal for effect [Music] like their father these kids clearly have great judgment for comedic Brilliance and if we thought Gru was delightfully dramatic we were in for a treat when Despicable Me 3 introduced his even more over-the-top twin brother Drew [Music] he might not be the most despicable villain but he managed to steal our hearts all the same Number 10. Tara Strong various we couldn't possibly forget about this queen throughout her career strong has used her voice to bring countless beloved and outlandish characters to life across various mediums [Music] we know her as Bubbles from The Powerpuff Girls dill pickles and the Rugrats franchise and Timmy Turner among others from The Fairly Odd Parents to name a few we mean it when we say she gives everything to those roles she also goes above and beyond giving an extra something to Raven in the Teen Titans World Raven is such a multi-faceted character and strong brings that to Life by relaying a plethora of emotions without compromising the character's badass deadpan nature that's no easy task and I want you out foreign you found is for meditation it's a portal into my mind not a toy in other words Tara Strong basically is our childhood number nine Eddie Murphy Mulan and the Shrek franchise Mushu and Donkey are arguably two of the most hilarious and beloved Sidekicks of the 90s and the odds and that's in large part thanks to Eddie Murphy's comedic skills this is gonna be fun we can stay up late swapping manly stars in the morning the actor and comedian really lifted the dialogue off the page with his animated expression and overzealous delivery he's often at his best when bringing comic relief to high tension scenes or whipping out zingy one-liners [Music] did I mention that I was a great Stone Dragon so it's hardly surprising that Mushu quickly became mulan's breakout character meanwhile we are still waiting on a donkey Centric full-length feature I am obliged to accompany you until you have saved your life that you have spare me mine I'm sorry the position of annoying talking animal has already been taken let's go Shrek Shrek is it entirely unrealistic to hope for a universe crossover now that is a movie we want to see both stand out as Murphy's best animated roles and we are not ready for him to retire either one quite yet number eight Seth MacFarlane various the Family Guy creator is arguably one of the best voice actors of the modern era and we're going for that walk oh yeah definitely and um I'll give you a bath no no no no sorry sorry and I'll let you go for a ride in the car oh you better not be lying do you want to sleep in the bed with us yes oh I never get to apparently he had such a strong idea for how he wanted some of the show's characters to sound that he decided it would just be easier to play them himself what do you want Roger anything a carton of Virginia slams and I want you to make me look like Audrey Hepburn I can give you all the cigarettes you want but I can't make you look like Audrey Hepburn [Music] you can hear his exceptionally versatile voice in Peter Ryan and Stewie Griffin as well as Glenn Quagmire he also voices Roger and Stan Smith in American Dad and Mike in Singh among others these roles are all so different that they require a talented performer who can effortlessly manipulate their voice to animate these Larger than Life individuals indeed McFarlane is the perfect man for the job plus have you heard him sing chills every time it rains it rains Pennies from Heaven don't you know each Cloud contained number 7. Rob Paulson various pinky in the brain Animaniacs and Jimmy Neutron all have in common if you said they all feature characters voiced by Rob Paulson gold star for you hey Mr Paulson would you say are you going to finish that croissant as Carl wieser yeah you're gonna finish that course dude oh my God it's incredible you should see it from my side pretty weird while this barely scrapes the surface of his lengthy and impressive credits it tells you all you need to know about the voice actor he skillfully elevates his character's goofiness and heightens their entertainment value while nailing a plethora of accents pinky had this overbought in which you have trouble producing the sound of ah really brain a god brain and you got that right away Paulson's expertise can unite Generations whether you're a long time fan of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles or are eager to catch him pop up in newer guest star roles just help us out of here oh with mucho gusto Amigos are you guys okay yeah we're fine who doesn't enjoy being wrapped in melted mozzarella there is no doubt he has a tremendous passion for his work you can hear it in every character he brings to life [Music] number six Frank Welker various with more than 860 credits to his name you will most certainly be familiar with Welker's voice whether you know it or not sound wave acknowledges pursue retrieve it are you a fan of Scooby-Doo I'm an avid viewer of Transformers or have a soft spot for a boo from Aladdin well you can attribute Fred Megatron sound wave and Aladdin's little sidekick to this voice actor and the Cave of Wonders Abu what uh a boost says uh that's not fair in addition to Abu Welker brought a ton of other non-verbal animal characters to life through Dynamic sound effects and immeasurable ingenuity [Music] he's also the only remaining original actor from the Scooby-Doo franchise I'll say it was at least that creeper didn't get this paper what so important about a blank piece of paper there's only one way to find out solve this mystery it's a true Testament to the actor that he can take his talents across such a wide range of roles and create so many remarkable characters his skills truly know no bounds number five Gilbert Gottfried various even if his name doesn't ring a bell you've most certainly heard his voice before he played Berkeley beetle in Thumbelina digit in Cyberchase and Mr mixes pitaleck and Superman the animated series you have not done with you not quite a long shot I'll find the loophole somehow someday however you'll probably best recognize this voice as the angry and sarcastic Iago from Aladdin there's perhaps no animated bird more over the top than jafar's right-hand parrot surprise they're gonna do we got a big problem here a big Gottfried had this unparalleled ability to make his character soar whether following a script or improvising to his heart's content sat in front of the mic and I write from the script and as I was reading the script I started improvising and playing with it and having fun his naturally quirky voice was perfect for his profession but he always took roles to the next level with perfectly chosen inflections and a Flawless knack for humor his legacy lives on through his countless memorable characters number four Mel Blanc various another member of voice acting royalty Mel Blanc aka the man of a thousand voices left an unrivaled Legacy what a season the season [Music] he's on fire he voiced most of our favorite Looney Tunes Friends Barney and Dino from The Flintstones Mr spacely in The Jetsons the eponymous Woody Woodpecker and hundreds of others an actor who can seamlessly go from Bugs Bunny to Daffy Duck to Tweety more than deserves his spot on our list hello he isn't just the voice of our childhoods but of our parents and even grandparents childhoods the late star certainly got voice acting down to a fine art and still remains in a league of his own what more can we say [Music] number three Tom Kenny SpongeBob SquarePants and my feet are killing me you'll recognize Kenny's voice from shows like Rocco's Modern Life where he played heifer wolf and in adventure time where he was Ice King however one character in particular floats to the top of his roster and he lives in a pineapple under the sea SpongeBob is splendidly ridiculous and everything he says or does is insanely excitable that's just a stupid Boulder it's not just a folder [Music] in the same vein his charm has kept audiences engaged and enthralled for over 20 years there's something incredibly affable about SpongeBob's naively optimistic personality which can be credited to Kenny's love for his work the actor also voices SpongeBob's trusty pet snail Gary Patchy the Pirate the French narrator and others I'm the French narrator a slow no wonder he's won two Emmy Awards for his Stellar voice acting number two Eartha Kitt The Emperor's New Groove Disney has given us many Unforgettable villains with isma consistently placing High among the ranks she so fabulously extra and if the content shown in the sweatbox documentary is anything to go by much of that was due to Eartha Kitt's performance in the recording booth it sucks the highest reason has but one punishment it came my way apparently the actress would perform her scenes moving like the villainous and making large gestures as she delivered her lines much of that enthusiasm translated into her voice and created an antagonist we cannot help but adore take it oh feel the power oh I could feel it Our Moment of Triumph approaches [Laughter] [Music] time theatrical and kooky and always manages to know when the right moment is to remain softly spoken or scream at the top of her lungs as far as iconic characters go Eartha Kitt's isma is the full package I can't believe this has happened then I bet you weren't expecting this [Music] oh okay finish them all before we unveil our top pick here are some honorable mentions Amy polar Inside Out we'd expect nothing less than 150 from a character called joy joy yes Joy you'll be in charge of the console keeping Riley happy all day long and may I and I love your dress it's adorable oh this old thing thank you so much I love the way it curls Chris Rock the Madagascar franchise and Bee Movie the comedian has created some Unforgettable characters [Music] Dwayne Johnson Moana The Rock delivers some major demigod energy dude honestly I could go on and on I could explain every natural phenomenon the tide the grass the ground oh that was man we just messing around Cree Summer various Rugrats Tiny Toons Kids Next Door she brings 120 to every role hi my name's Susie what's yours Tommy hi Tommy want me to show you our new house Adam Sandler The Hotel Transylvania franchise Sandler really sinks his teeth into this role you are to stay away and never tell humans about this place or I will track you down and suck every ounce of blood from your body until you look like a deflated whoopee cushion

late incomparable Robin Williams has voiced some of our favorite animated characters such as Lovelace and Ramon from Happy Feet and batty Coda from FernGully the last rainforest however there is one character that Springs to mind who above all is wonderfully and magically over the top it's ever impressive but never duplicated Williams went above and beyond bringing Genie to life with his iconic arsenal of Impressions and famous improvisational skills he truly went wild while creating this Larger than Life character and the payoff is tremendous sometimes it gets a little blue and then but I'm a genius so that's not bad you know we do the other way right yeah to this day no one can compare to this magical being or the actor who voices him we guess after being trapped for 10 000 years Genie really needed to let his freak flag fly and Robin Williams was just the guy to help him do it do you mind if I kiss the monkey oh hairball well I can't do any more damage around this Popsicle stand
