I do admire Antonio Banderas' ability to say a line like "Adiós, Humpty Dumpty" with smouldering intensity.
#rewatching Puss in Boots#say what you will about screen actors being cast in voice roles for animation#some of them can pull it off#I mean I don't think anyone's really complaining about the cases where they DO pull it off#but about the ones where casting this person really adds nothing but their name#they don't do anything really distinctive with the performance#like Strange World? the character Searcher is voiced by Jake Gyllenhaal#I have nothing against Jake Gyllenhaal and particularly enjoyed his performance in Zodiac#but Searcher being Jake Gyllenhaal wasn't anything special#like it was a good and likeable performance but it didn't have any particular flair#nothing to make you say 'ah I see why they picked Gyllenhaal!'#ditto the brothers in Onward#perfectly all right but it felt like some kind of studio system deal to have two actors then prominent in the MCU do Disney voices#that and BARLEY IS A JACK BLACK CHARACTER WHO JUST FOR SOME WEIRD REASON ISN'T PLAYED BY JACK BLACK#speaking of Jack Black: good voice actor#enjoyed him very much in Kung Fu Panda
