Never Mess with Doctor Doom

Never mess with Doctor Doom,unless you want your homeworld to be destroyed

In the other hand I love that Zombie Doom has not been consumed by the cannibalism,thus remaining the sinister sovereign that he is

I can't say just what ACTOR would be perfect for Doom's voice, but I have a fair idea of what he should sound like - deep, slightly grating, with a slight mechanical echo to his tones, the height of arrogance, of course, but with a certain charismatic edge, and a hint of a European accent. Actually, you know who could pull it off? Ian McKellen. Take the voice he did for the Toad in 'Flushed Away', make it a teensy bit higher-pitched, add a bit of a Germanic grate in place of the English accent, and run it through a computer to make it sound like it's echoing from inside Doom's armor. It'd be perfect.

	Or a German Brian Blessed. :) Imagine that, won't you? ^^ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I can't, actually, because I don't think I've ever seen anything with him in it. I understand that he's supposed to be a huge ham, but I don't know what he looks or sounds like. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If anyone voices Doom, it should be Clancy Brown. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Been a while since I've seen anything with him in it. I know he can sound very raspy, but if I'm remembering his voice correctly, he's just too American-sounding to play Doom. I mean, of course he could put on an accent, but that sort of thing is tricky. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He's played the Kurgan, Lex Luthor & Mr Freeze. But to be honest I've never heard Doom's voice in my heard with an accent. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ohhhhh, I know what he sounds like, then. Yeah, he's got a good voice. I haven't really heard Doom with an accent, either, but it makes sense that he'd have one. After all, he grew up as a European gypsy, and I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that Latveria is supposed to be located somewhere near Germany. It makes sense that he'd have at least the trace of an accent. (Reply to this) (Parent)
