If the current voice acting wokeness of making sure the character is being voiced by someone of same skin color and sexual orientation was predominant.. this guy would not have been able to voive darth.
That's the part that's getting kinda black-pill for me. There's a bunch of non-white icons of American history, but many of them are older folks from an era that is dead, and they too are passing away.
James Earl Jones was one of em. You didn't give a fuck that he was black. You gave a fuck because his voice was deep and powerful and gave character and life to media. Darth Vader would not have been as frightening and imposing if he was voiced by ANY other man.
idk about you guys but I can't think of someone like him who's in their 20's-40's that is as iconic as he was. Every black person who is an actor in that age range is an insufferable left wing BLM cuck.
Its like that other black dude, roscoe lee brown, that voiced king pin in the 1990s spiderman cartoon.
I had no idea he was the King Pin, and he did it well. Peak "villain voice" material.
they also dont forget what "acting" is. if a straight person can act as a convincing gay person, thats good acting. getting a gay person to act as a gay person is boring.
