    Default If IX had voice actors...

    Freya would be Cate Blanchett and have the voice of GALADRIEL.

    I think RDJ would do a fab Steiner, but I'm undecided.

    Nah, RDJ is too nasal for Steiner. He'd need a deep, solid voice. Blanchett would do a pretty good Freya, though. The problem I have with thinking of voice actors is that, while each character is distinct when I read what they're saying, I don't read them in any voices. I can't even begin to think of who could play Zidane.

    Who is RDJ?

    I honestly can't think of any good voice actors at the moment, but I'll consider it. This is an interesting topic.

    Robert Downy JR. But you don't like him so yah.

    I know this is going to be pretty left field here but Selena Gomez for Dagger.

    Steiner at the beginning of the game to Zidane: "I don't know who you are, but I'll find you and I'll kill you."

    The only choice for Garland would be Patrick Stewart.

    Garland would be the perfect role for Patty Stew. Very uppity and a limited time only character.

    Zidane - Christian Slater
    Blanc - Joseph Gordon-Levitt
    Vivi - Atticus Shaffer (I've always imagined Vivi would have an annoying voice)
    Puck - Justin Bieber (I've always imagined Puck would have an annoying voice)
    Steiner - Ron Perlman
    Beatrix - Sharon Stone
    Dagger - Alyson Hannigan
    Freya - Kate Beckinsale
    Fratley - Liam Neeson
    Amarant - Nicholas Cage
    Lani - Sarah Michelle Gellar (I've always imagined Lani to have an annoying voice)
    Quina - Robert Downey, Jr. (don't worry, he knows how to do weird)
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    In all fairness, either this or Garland are the only roles I could see him doing.

    Brick Heck on The Middle... you know it... the janitor from Scrubs plays the father.

    If FF9 had voice acting I probably would've hated it and would focus on its other negative points that I'm usually willing to forgive :P But to give my two cents...

    Mine are all gonna be voice actors because I know voice actors' vocal capabilities better than I know those of film actors.

    Zidane - Yuri Lowenthal (He has a generic-sounding voice, enough so that you won't get tired of hearing it seeing as he'll be with you for a massive portion of the game; if Zidane were voiced by someone with a certain sound about them there's a chance you'd decide you didn't like it and would get sick of it, kind of like many, many people did with James Arnold Taylor's whiny squeak)

    Steiner - Paul Eiding (Have you ever heard him play a more comical role before? He's actually very good. Look on YouTube for a Gally longplay of Evil Zone and enjoy. Oh god I'd love to hear most of Steiner's lines spoken by him.)

    Garnet - Jennifer Hale (Though I'm not sure how young she can sound)

    Vivi - Colleen Clinkenbeard (Lately I've been really impressed by her voice work as Gohan in Dragon Ball Kai)

    Freya - Allison Hollingshead (She's just another well-spoken adult female voice actor that I quite liked. She usually sounds calm and dispassionate, but for Freya I think that would work.)

    Quina - Christopher Sabat (Just show him some footage of Quina's scenes and let him wing it. He'll find a voice.)

    Eiko - Katie Leigh (I liked her as Millie in Star Ocean First Departure)

    Amarant - Microsoft Sam (May be too expressive though)

    Garland - George Newbern (Though there's a risk of him sounding too Sephirothy)

    Kuja - Chris Ayres (He was Freeza's new voice actor for Dragon Ball Kai and his blend of effeminate and indimitating was spot on)

    Queen Brahne - Linda Young (Freeza's old voice actor! Hearing her and Chris Ayres in the same scene, I'd just close my eyes, pretend they were two Freezas and geek out.)

    I agree for the most part with your post. I could see Jennifer Hale playing Freya as well.
