the beastie boys AGAIN

[Reply #82 on:]

Bruce Campbell...just because.

Unknown wins the thread.

It would have been nice if Donald Sutherland could have been at the head museum, even just in the background. Since he was the museum curator in the Simpsons episode where Lisa outed Jebidiah Springfield as a vicious pirate, it would have been a nice bit of symmetry.

only one problem in that, the simpsons only exist in the futurama as a comic book, as evidenced in the simpsons - futurama crossover crisis comic

[Reply #85 on:]

Stephen Colbert, at least a Barak Obama reference (face on a bill), ST:TNG crew, SG1 cast (original with Richard Dean Anderson).

[Reply #86 on:]

John Goodman! Come on, who doesn't want to hear John Goodman do Santa again? Not to say John Dimaggio doesn't do an amazing job. I'm sorry if I spelt your name wrong John D. 

[Reply #87 on:]

How about you have the simpson? After being crogenically frozen fry would remember them from the TV show.

[Reply #88 on:]

My old physics professor Tim Stelzer from the U of I.

[Reply #89 on:]

Tom Hanks, I dont know what any of you think of him as an actor but he is a good voice over, Toy Story, I think it would be cool.

[Reply #90 on:]

Brad Pitt would be awesomer I think.

edit: as long as he leaves the misses at home with at least 6 babysitters

edit2: I just replied to something from the first page.. oops

[Reply #91 on:]

Beastie Boys would be cool, again....

I'd like to see Pink Floyd play in space. And where better than in Futurama ! I mean, they 'still are first in space' :P

[Reply #92 on:]

Stephen Colbert

that would be awesome, especially if he was one of Zapp's generals or maybe even a Tek Jansen appearance

[Reply #93 on:]

I am all for Guest voices....but I don't want them to be forced in there like the Simpsons have been doing of late.
The Simpson's seem to be picking a guest and writing the episode around them.....the show suffers...

I would like another Conan O'Brien Appearence...

[Reply #94 on:]

hoping we get renewed for another season, of course.

id love to see:

Daniel Dennett
Richard Dawkins
Steven Pinker

edit: thanks for finding the thread and moving my post in it.

[Reply #95 on:]

Al Gore, more of Al gore!

[Reply #96 on:]

Patrick Stewart! Also more of the Robot Devil & Reverend Preacherbot. I would also like to see more of Al Gore.

[Reply #97 on:]

There will not be any Al Gore appearances he is too busy pointing to his genitals and telling masseuses to get over here and take care this.

[Reply #98 on:]

Yeah, except he's in the next episode.

[Reply #99 on:]

Really LMAO, good ole Al Gore.

[Reply #100 on:]

Patrick Stewart!

Ah yes ... I don't know if bringing Picard to the mix will stir things up TOS related, but I think he could play a rival ship captain of Zapp who has more success with Leela than Zapp does.

[Reply #101 on:]

That's an awesome idea. It's so rare to hear good ideas on this forum.


I'd love to see Nicolas Cage on the show because he's recently become my favourite thing in the world (mostly in an ironic way, you understand).

[Reply #102 on:]

Patrick Stewart!

Ah yes ... I don't know if bringing Picard to the mix will stir things up TOS related, but I think he could play a rival ship captain of Zapp who has more success with Leela than Zapp does.

That might actually happen... I mean, he's appeared on AD and FG as different roles. He kinda used to animated shows.

May his character be called Dickard! Naah, Pecard?
No?

[Reply #103 on:]

And The Simpsons.

[Reply #104 on:]

Yes to Picard, please. I mean, What's-His-Name. Patrick Stewart.

And Stephen Fry. Preferably as the voice of the Hitchhiker's Guide.

[Reply #105 on:]

Sorry to bump this one but I missed my turn waah...

Top three guest voices / characters:

1) Jon Lovitz - that man just cracks me up whether in real life or as a voice cameo
2) James Earl Jones - The coolest voice ever!
3) Eddie Murphy - don't like the man personally but just imagine a wise cracking robot with his voice

There would have been a fourth (and actually 1st on the list) but unfortunately the guy is no longer with us...Phil Hartman...Billy does a brilliant job imitating Phil for Zapp but no one can come close...just imagine Lionel Hutz/Troy McClure in a Claret velour uniform...checkmate

[Reply #106 on:]

I gotta agree, Jon Lovitz' voice is so high-energy and hilarious, he'd be great doing those old movie theatre wartime updates.

[Reply #107 on:]

Isn't there a thread just like this in the Human Resource Department? Oh yeah,

Voices you want in Futurama

[Reply #108 on:]

This thread came first so if anything, you should link them to this thread.

[Reply #109 on:]

Or they could be merged. PEEL 2 is nothing if not streamlined.

[Reply #110 on:]

My thread is much more better, and the grammar is well gooder, but maybe merging them is a good idea.  

Helena Bonham Carter, Cate Blanchett, Mila Jovovich, Joanna Lumley, Ben Whishaw, Michael Cera, Tara Strong, Cree Summer, Andrew Garfield and Jane Horricks.   And Jennifer Tilly.

[Reply #111 on:]

Right,

David Bowie
Nicolas Cage
Crispin Glover
Tim Curry
Malcolm McDowell
Bill Murray
Alan Rickman
John C. Reilley
Christoph Waltz
Steve Buscemi
Steve Coogan
Bryan Cranston
Jeffrey Combs
Michael J. Fox
Helena Bonham Carter
Kevin Spacey
Anthony Head
Samuel L. Jackson
Peter Capaldi
Tom Hanks
Will Arnett
Rhys Darby
Joe Pesci
Michael York
Christopher Walken
Stephen Merchant
William H. Macy

and not so much for me, but I imagine Tom Baker would please a lot of people.

[Reply #112 on:]

Stephen Merchant in Futurama?! Hmmm...

[Reply #113 on:]

He's got an interesting voice, he's proven himself adept at voice-over work (see Portal 2 or those adverts he does) and he's not even a complete unknown with the US market either.

I'd love to see him as some sort of big, gangly alien.

[Reply #114 on:]

Michio Kaku would make a great guest.  He could talk theoretical physics with Stephen Hawking over pizza or something.

"Stephen Hawking in a pizzeria..."

[Reply #115 on:]

I sprinkled some powdered opal on this thread, so it's been revived in a jar.   What guest stars do you want?   

I personally would love to see Jean Smart (Pickles Oblong) appear.

[Reply #116 on:]

Bono

[Reply #117 on:]

Still Jack Black.

[Reply #118 on:]

I'd rather they focus on episodes that mesh well with established continuity and tell engaging stories that are character driven and setting-appropriate (ie: science fiction inspired plotlines as opposed to satires of current events), rather then on cramming guest stars into the show at the moment. But it might help to drive up interest in the show if they got a few high-profile popular celebrities in for the latter half of S7.

[Reply #119 on:]

Wow, this is an old thread.

I'd still love to see Stephen Colbert. He has a natural talent for using his voice and has done a bunch of voice-overs in the past.

Most of the other guest stars I'd want to see would either be professional voice actors or comedians.
