Apparently, the boss has mused on this:

Quote from: jeph jacques (twitter)

If QC ever gets optioned I will demand that Scott Bakula play Marten's dad and/or post-apocalyptic older Marten
Angelina Jolie as Marten's mom
Alex Skarsgard as Sven, obviously
Lady Gaga (in a fat suit or after gaining a bunch of weight a la DeNiro in Raging Bull) as Marigold
(Same crazy outfits as she usually wears, though.)
Ke$ha as Raven because I wanna troll the audience a lil'
Ed Asner as Pintsize. Not just the voice, they're shrink him down.
No idea who'd play Hanners. I am not up on my young, scared-looking actresses.
Dita Von Teese as Dora, Christina Hendricks as Faye (who CARES if she's too old)
(Now I am imagining Christina Hendricks with short hair and chunky glasses and I need to be alone for a little while)
Lots of people saying Dakota Fanning for Hanners, googled her and yeah I can see it
OH MY GOD YES “@Tranderas: @jephjacques Could troll the audience a LOT and have Rebecca Black play Dora.”
Pretty sure Jimbo would have to be played by @wigu
Carey Mulligan would make a good Hanners or Tai #okayImdone

Damn. Now I want a shrunken Ed Asner with wang hands.

Sorry to bump this, but I sorta thought that Pintsize, WInslow, Momo, etc. would have identical voices as their owners, only run through auto-tune.

As for the characters, I don't really have an opinion - we all "hear" the characters in different voices, and it would be interesting to know if Jeph imagines voices for the characters as he writes the strips - but I am totally surprised nobody suggested Ellen DeGeneres as Tai.

Jeph said once that he imagines Dora sounding like Jane Lane from Daria. Momo is "Squeaky but with very precise enunciation".

DSL · « **Reply #56 on:** 25 Mar 2012, 00:34 »

So, basically Hynden Walch reprising her Starfire voice, only with more worldliness. Momo's no innocent.

Probably not very imaginative on my part, but we could dig up Mel Blanc and have him reprise his Twiki voice for Pintsize. Without the Beedebedebedebede.

Mel Blac Jr.'s not only alive, but able to do most of his father's voices...

DSL · « **Reply #58 on:** 25 Mar 2012, 06:59 »

... and June Foray's still around, so we've got things covered, then (Her Rocky the Flying Squirrel voice would be perfect for Hanners). Now, for limited animation: Filmation, Hanna-Barbera, Jay Ward or UPA style?

jmucchiello · « **Reply #59 on:** 25 Mar 2012, 07:54 »

Sadly, there is no way QC could become an animated show. Jeph would have to give up control of his characters for that to happen and with his attitude toward shipping, I can't imagine he'd be willing to give some random strangers in Hollywood control of his characters.

dreed · « **Reply #60 on:** 25 Mar 2012, 08:26 »

Hollywood?
why them?

and he wouldn't need to give up anything. he could be supervisor of the production and sole copyright holder therefore complete control over the characters.
ofcourse i don't see QC being animated (not counting gif) for very various different reasons.

Is it cold in here? · « **Reply #61 on:** 25 Mar 2012, 08:44 »

Yes, but in that case he'd have to come up with the money for it.

DSL · « **Reply #62 on:** 25 Mar 2012, 09:12 »

There's always those do-it-yourself talking Teddy bear animations, the ones with the Speak'n'Spell voices.

Groenig did it with the Simpsons and futurama. I know, those didn't start as comics, but he did Life in Hell before animating a Simpson's short for the Tracy Ullman show (and all the young'uns say, "who?").

I just want to point out how successful CtrlAltDelete was as an animated series.

idontunderstand · « **Reply #65 on:** 26 Mar 2012, 12:44 »

I just want to point out that it also sucked.

Mister D Nomms · « **Reply #66 on:** 26 Mar 2012, 12:50 »

I was being sarcastic, in case anybody thought otherwise.

idontunderstand · « **Reply #67 on:** 26 Mar 2012, 12:55 »

I didn't, just wanted to make it more obvious.

idontunderstand · « **Reply #68 on:** 26 Mar 2012, 12:59 »

Oh so, wait, it WASN'T popular and that was what you were sarcastic about. I actually thought it might have been. It's not that bad for mainstream comedy.

Madmartigan · « **Reply #69 on:** 26 Mar 2012, 20:28 »

When I first saw this, my immediate thought was Tina Fey as Faye.

Kugai · « **Reply #70 on:** 26 Mar 2012, 23:45 »

Naaaah, I think the voice of Daria Morgandorffer would be better.

Gregorio · « **Reply #71 on:** 27 Mar 2012, 22:23 »

It turns out that a Japanese localization company has taken on the task of bringing QC to our TV's. Current projected voice actor line-up:

Marten: Steve Blum
Faye: Steve Blum
Dora: Steve Blum
Steve: Steve Blum
Hannelore: Steve Blum
Pintsize: Steve Blum
Angus: Colleen O'Shaughnessey
Marigold: Bored intern
Momo: Steve Blum

Raven - Monica Rail
Sven - Kevin Conroy
Marten - Monica Rail
Steve - Peter Cullen
Tai - Pauly Purette (Bad Spelling Night tonight)

Purette tourette's.

Pauley Perrette always seems like she's on cocaine when she's doing interviews.

Patrick Warburton as all the male characters, Tara Strong as all the female characters, and H. Jon Benjamin as all the robot characters. All dialogue is shouted.

It would be awfully silly and I'd probably be the only person on earth who'd watch it, but damn I'd enjoy it.

You are wrong about being the only person to watch it, and I've put the reason why in bold. And underline. That man's voice is a treasure.

I'd watch cause all the dialogue is shouted. It's funny even thinking about it. Hehe.

Heh, as much as I loved QC and would chuckle and smile when I read the jokes, it never really made me laugh out loud until Penelope described her Raven puppet.

Penelope has a telling line earlier in that strip: "I promise to not say anything mean by accident."

Raises a horrible image: A group trawl through the archives, a kind of cruise, a fresh examination of the canon, for those who don't spend enough time in the QCverse and the forum already. Ewwww! And once it launched, who could stay on the dock, waving goodbye to those who had waived their sanity?

Your metaphor hints at shipping.

To be honest, I'm still trying to wrap my head around the comic-world concept. I've gone back to a definition a couple of times and understand it when I read it, but it's hard to connect the word with the concept. I'd better post it to my desktop. Hate to be guilty of the real thing.

It's really not worth the effort.

And, if you're ~~older~~ more mature than about fifteen, you're ulikely to do it by accident, because it's (by definition) out of character.

OK, I took another look at "shipping" in Urban Dictionary, and once I saw it was short for "relationship" and "relationshipping," both as verbs, it made more sense.
