Ansem the Wise: What happened to your voice?!

Posted

Ok, so you know how in KH2 they had DiZ's voice actor as good ol' Saruman...I mean Count Dooku...NO! Arrgh. Christopher Lee! There we go.

He did a great job with his role but when BBS roled around and I unlocked the secret ending, I was like OMG! its Ansem! :] but.....his voice, WTF?! It was like Corey Burton obliterated his voice! I hate it. Hopefully, they'll bring back Christopher Lee for KH3, I just want him back. On that note, in KH3D Ansem the Wise spoke of the HEART on DESTINY ISLANDS to RIKU. (in Sora but stay with me here)

In the original Kingdom Hearts, Ansem SoD, spoke to SORA about the HEART at DESTINY ISLANDS (in the End of the World). I just found that to be an awesome coincidence.

What do you peoples think?

I actually like his new voice better.

i didn't really notice... i was hoping when he asked for rikus name he was gonna say ansem then ansem would get super pissed off because everyone takin his name xD

The reason they jump back and forth between Christopher Lee and Corey Burton is probably because Christopher is busy with several other projects. Another cool coincidences about the Ansems on Destiny Island talking about the heart is that both of them have also changed their voice actors over the games. However, Ansem SoD is permanent and Ansem the Wise varies. Corey was okey in Re:Com, meh in BbS and quite decent in 3D in my opinion.

 

They should have used Charles Dance -- the actor which plays Tywin Lannister in Game of Thrones -- as the replacement for Christopher Lee whenever he's unavailable. Their voices are quite similar. But, Charles Dance is probably quite busy as well.

I really...didnt even notice

lol me either. Until everyone started talking about it and I actually compared the two.

They sound the exact same to me. 

I feel like Corey Burton has always done a good job, even though his voice is different than Christopher Lee. Christopher Lee is a busy and expensive man though so it's probably hard to get him for each one. Plus he is 91 years old. 

91!!!!!!!!

It sticks out so much more in DDD, due to the fact that Yen Sid and Ansem the Wise SOUND EXACTLY THE SAME.Then again, every character Corey Burton plays now sounds the same to me since he played Hugo Strange in Arkham City.

I cannot tell them apart so it sounds fine to me ,

I believe Corey Burton has stepped in for characters Christopher Lee has been before: he's Count Dooku in the Clone Wars, which was a Chris Lee character originally. He sounds close enough to me that I never minded the change.

I dont know if it was his acting or the lines that he spoke in the BBS secret ending, but he won me over in that scene.
