I found it funny that my brother never knew that John Travolta plays that woman (can't remember her name) in Hairspray. He didn't believe me that hes the same guy that plays Danny on Grease. Can't remember anymore now, I'm at collage.

EDIT: Oh, I saw a film (can't remember which) that had a young Zac Effron in it. I never knew that his eyes were actually that bright a blue, I always thought they were enhanced!

YellowBananas · May 14, 2008 11:04 AM

never new that Zac was in a movie b4 HSM!

Phoenix_Flyer · May 14, 2008 11:06 AM

I know, me neither, I'm gonna see what it was called, all I can remember about it was he was leaning against the back of a pick-up truck and talking to some other kids.

YellowBananas · May 14, 2008 11:09 AM

hmm.... interesting.

Phoenix_Flyer · May 14, 2008 11:10 AM

I think it might have been one called Miracle Run. I'm not sure, I'll ask my Mum tonight, she was the one watching it.

EDIT: Oooooh, Mark Hamill also played Niju on Balto: Wolf Quest, and he was additional voices on The Little Mermaid.

YellowBananas · May 14, 2008 11:20 AM

I already knew them all. As for the other characters, i hadn't heard of one of them, which made it not valid for me.
But heres some facts...
The weird, Adult comedy cartoon reality random show "Drawn Together" satars many Spyro Voice Actors including:
Jess Harnell-Voice of Spyro & Sparx in AHT
Cree Summer-Voice Of Cynder
Tara Strong-Voice of Ember and other AHT characters

The Character "Wooldoor" has connections to the insomniac spyros, but they're small.
The character is played by James Arnold Taylor, the same guy who played Ratchet From Ratchet and Clank 1 (and if you didn't know, R&C1 was made by the same company as Original Spyro, Insomniac).
Also, The character is a parody on Spongebob, who happens to be played by Tom Kenny, the 2- voice of Spyro.

Jess Harnell also played crash bandicoot from 2005 to the present day.

I had no idea Jim Carrey played a character that was disturbed in The Number 23 and yet he later played a character that was funny in Horton Hears A Who.

Phoenix_Flyer · May 14, 2008 9:33 PM

Heres another one which I didn't see the first time round. Ben Stiller, from Night At The Museum, also plays White in Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story. I didn't see it until the second time round, take away the fuzzy hair and its obvious! Lol! big_smile

Phoenix_Flyer · May 16, 2008 12:16 PM

I also didn't know that Ben Stiller voiced Alex in Madagascar and that they are currently filming Night At The Museum 2! ANother one is John Cleese, I didn't realise he played Nearly-Headless Nick!

Kalyx · May 16, 2008 3:26 PM

Speaking of Madegascar, David Schwimmer plays the voice of Melman the giraffe and Chris Rock plays the voice of Marty the zebra.

As for John Cleese (Monty Python Rules!) he has been playing Q, the gadget expert in the last few James bond movies, and was in "A Fish Called Wanda" and its sequel with fellow "Python" Michael Palin.

EricChristianOlsenFanatic · May 16, 2008 4:47 PM

Steve Carell plays Evan on Evan Almighty and then plays Uncle Frank on Little Miss Sunshine.

Phoenix_Flyer · May 16, 2008 5:42 PM

John Cleese has done a lot of other things I know of; like Mercury the Pigeon on Valiant (mint film, I loved it!) and King Harold on Shrek 2 and 3.

Kalyx · May 16, 2008 5:58 PM

Of course, he was in all of the Monty Python movies, and the BBC series Fawlty Towers. No matter what he's in, he's always great...a very talented and funny guy!
