Voice Overacting At Its Finest
- Thread starter Loudninja
- Start date
I literally stopped playing Alan Wake cause I thought Alan's voice was trying to hard to sound like a sophisticated artist and it was annoying me
Paimon from Genshin Impact is pretty much the textbook example of a voice actress trying way way too hard.
Like I imagine the character is intentionally annoying but my god.

Doing this voice and screaming half his lines (because its Cobra Commander) must have been absolutely brutal on the vocal cords.
Jesus christ, I couldn't even make it thirty seconds into that video before I was laughing my ass off when Cobra Commander is like; "fuck you, Shipwreck, I need your chair for my tantrum!"
For me it was Barry Wheeler that nearly made me quit that game. I mean, I know Alan Wake is essentially just pop-culture-reference Scrapple, but the really broad, obvious Faux Pesci performance just pulled me out of the atmosphere whenever he showed up.
I don't think I will ever get tired of this video. It gets me every time.
Storm in X-Men the Animated series really goes in on a lot of her lines to an absurd degree, but thats hinestly part of what makes her character so memorable.
Friendship ended with Tobey, this guy my new favorite Spider-Man lmao. so whiny and manic

How about when overacting can transcend into greatness?
I still contend that this is James Earl Jones greatest villainous performance...

I still don't know how I feel about the GX dub.
Oh my goodness... I haven't heard that voice in 27 years 🤣
I was watching this and thinking it wasn't that bad. I mean he's got the venom suit so he's going to be a little angry.
TOO THE ENDS OF THR EARRRRRRRTH
okay, that got me. Lol.
Overacting? This scene is like classical Shakesperean acting involving men in tights with knives for hands...
I gotcha, I just unironically love this sequence, is all, ever since I was a kid...
God damn! What is that noise at the end? Is a duck being strangled?
This truly is over acting at its finest. Like now after hearing this, it wouldn't feel right any other way.
To be fair, she has molten metal running on her skin. Sounding like a strangled duck is an underreaction to tbh.
Fun fact it's Sean Schemmel the voice actor Goku
Do you like to hear Hip hop Goku
I had to pinch my nose and stop the video intermittently to stop myself from bursting at work.
"No pomegranates" lady was also acting, if I'm not mistaken. But I don't think 'overacting' is entirely the right word to use in her case, since the acting is phenomenal. Cobra Commander just reminded me of it.

A lot of quotes from the first WH40K: Dawn of War are worthy of this thread, but the best will still probably be the Imperial Guard Psyker:
"I KNEW...you'd say, THAT!"
"FORWARD, MEN!"
"WIT.NESS MY POWER!!"
"WITNESS YOUR DOOOOOOOMMM...AH!"
"witness the glory of the Emperor...through ME!"
