Who would you rather have narrate your life, Jeremy Irons(Voice of Scar from the Lion King) or James Earl Jones (voice of Mufasa from the lion king and Darth Vader)?

Since so many people are coming up with there own suggestions if your life was a movie who would you want to narrate it.

tomselleck69 · « **Reply #1 on:** 20 Sep 2008, 19:47 »

Sure James Earl Jones' voice has its merits, but compared to Jeremy Irons, he might as well be a white noise machine.

In fact, all sound is white noise compared to Jeremy Irons' voice.

Is Keith David an option?

dangerdave · « **Reply #4 on:** 20 Sep 2008, 20:03 »

Sorry Keith David is not even though his voice is great i don't think he holds a candle to either James Earl Jones or Jeremy Irons

Actually, I want Gilbert Gottfried. Because fuck all y'all.

onewheelwizzard · « **Reply #6 on:** 20 Sep 2008, 20:28 »

Personally I'm amazed that Morgan Freeman isn't in the running, but I'd go with James Earl Jones.

Who played Lando Calrissian.

That guy

thehollow · « **Reply #8 on:** 20 Sep 2008, 20:42 »

I'd go with Morgan Freeman, and to make it even more awesome I'd change my name to Andy Dufresne.

dangerdave · « **Reply #9 on:** 20 Sep 2008, 20:50 »

Now that i changes the question above I'm going to say i would want Jeremy Irons

James Earl Jones, in the 80's, non-modulated. With a tire iron.

this is a good choice too.

In response to the second question, I'm not sure, but the person has to have severe, severe Down Syndrome.

Git-r-done.

That would be Billy Dee Williams. And that is the only movie he has ever been in. Ever.

KvP · « **Reply #14 on:** 20 Sep 2008, 22:37 »

WRONG.

He was Harvey Dent in the Tim Burton Batman.

Billy Dee tell 'em bout Colt 45

Anyway, Carl Fucking Sagan, shitbrains.

If I could raise the dead - Lorne Greene.

But because there'd have to be lots of sarcasm - Rick Mercer.

StMonkey · « **Reply #21 on:** 22 Sep 2008, 05:25 »

Mike Rowe, or the not annoying voice that narrates How Its Made. Or the Modern Marvels guy. Basically, any narrator of anything on Discovery Channel I want to tell step by step my every waking moment.

satsugaikaze · « **Reply #22 on:** 22 Sep 2008, 06:19 »

I'd probably choose James Earl Jones considering how he showed up Morgan Freeman's lines in Scary Movie 4. Only the last part of that film was worth watching.

Alec Baldwin. His narration in Royal Tennenbaums would fit my life perfectly.

Dimmukane · « **Reply #25 on:** 22 Sep 2008, 13:15 »

Oddly enough, I didn't know that until now. Him, too, then. He can do the lighter bits, James Earl Jones can do the darker bits.

Al Pacino. I want even the most mundane and normal things in my life overly dramatized and shouted.

I though about this then decided: "Nope, I'd rather have Bogart."

satsugaikaze · « **Reply #30 on:** 23 Sep 2008, 04:51 »

Oooooooo! How about Ian McDiarmid or some other random person who plays all the stereotypical villains?

Maybe Christoper Lee, too.

David_Dovey · « **Reply #31 on:** 23 Sep 2008, 05:07 »

Actually tomselleck's avatar up there made me think that Ian McShane could possibly be the raddest voice to have on your biopic

valley_parade · « **Reply #32 on:** 23 Sep 2008, 05:25 »

Because my life is so mundane, I'd want it narrated by James May.

I already narrate my entire life in my head and I am already pretty sure that my life is a movie.

RobbieOC · « **Reply #35 on:** 23 Sep 2008, 12:40 »

God no. Everything would be done in alliteration. It would be awful.

Unless that's what you want I guess. It is your movie, after all.

I demand to know why Sam Waterson is not mentioned, he narrated a few of the World History movies we watched ages ago. He has the voice for it, and even better, there could be random legal terms.

Lets be honest. For my life story, you are going to need to resurrect Laurence Olivier

Waylon Jennings. Hopefully he could posthumously tack in some car chases to spice things up.

Or Tim Curry. He narrated the audiobooks for the Abhorsen series, by the way.
