I KNOW THAT VOICE WORLD PREMIERE!


Remember when I showed 
you the trailer for 
the work-in-progress documentary
about animation
voice actors
called


If you don't remember
(and are too lazy to click the link)
you oughta know that 
the film is the baby of
sooper awesome voice actor
aka
Bender
Jake the Dog
Joctopus
Shnitzel
Four Arms
Dr. Drakken
etc etc etc


And after a couple years,
a million hours of interviews,
lots of writing, editing 
and much love...
it's
DONE!

Last week was the
sooper exclusive
WORLD PREMIERE
at the
Egyptian Theatre
in Hollywood, USA
so 
and I
disguised ourselves as 
voice actors and snuck in!


It was quite the gala
red carpet 
event:



And 
EVERY
sooper famous
voice actor
was there...

but we hung out with
instead:


Mr. DiMaggio
and his co-producers got up to say a couple words
before the film started:


And then it was time for the screening,
which, of course, rocked.

Seriously.

EVERYONE 
is in the movie.

Tom Kenny
Hank Azaria
Rob Paulsen
Kevin Michael Richardson
Billy West
Jim Cummings
Dee Bradley Baker
Grey DeLisle
Bill Farmer
Bob Bergen
Mark Hamill
Cree Summer
Lauren Tom
and
THERE'S NOT ENOUGH ROOM 
ON THE INTERNET TO LIST THEM ALL!

Some highlights:

Dee Bradley Baker making monster sounds
with the use of a jar for extra resonance

Bob Bergen slowly breaking down,
syllable by syllable 
how Porky Pig says a word
and then impossibly stringing a bunch together.

Jim Cummings and Kevin Michael Richardson
challenging each other with dueling Mike Tyson
impersonations

Jess Harnell's story about a skeptical kid 
who refused to believe he played Wacko

and to be honest, 
THERE'S NOT ENOUGH ROOM 
ON THE INTERNET TO LIST THEM ALL!

 What made it really fun were all the
woops
woots
and 
cheers
that occurred when an actor came on screen.
The VO community is a very
generous group and
EVERYONE
got excited to
see their peers on the big screen.

Afterwards, there was a brief 
discussion with the producers and a couple of the actors
which was sooper fun:


from right to left:
Tom Kenny
Maurice LaMarche
Rob Paulsen
John DiMaggio
Andrea Romano
director Lawrence Shapiro
and 
producer Tommy Reid

Keep an eye on your theaters for
I KNOW THAT VOICE!
It's
DELICIOUS!

Just like
voice director
Kris Zimmerman's
brain:
