Remembering Tom Wilkinson and Richard Romanus

Just as 2023 is about to end, there's two actor's who have passed away. Here is my combined remembrance:

Remembering Tom Wilkinson 1948-2023

British actor Tom Wilkinson has died at 75. He was a serious "that guy" actor who appeared in countless great movies and you might not know his name but you'd say "that guy is good in everything"! He received two Academy Award nominations: Todd Field's excellent In the Bedroom for Lead Actor and Tony Gilroy's Michael Clayton for Supporting Actor. Both phenomenal performances!

Kirsten Dunst and Wilkinson in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

Beyond those two movies I think my other favorite performances of his were as the doctor with secrets of his own in Michel Gondry's Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and the uncle in Woody Allen's underrated Cassandra's Dream.

Other notable performances included The Full Monty, Rush Hour, Shakespeare in Love, Ride with the Devil, The Patriot, Batman Begins, Recount, The Grand Budapest Hotel, and Selma just to name a few. That's a lot of historical biopics and period pieces he specialized in! He was consistently good in so many ensemble films.

Remembering Richard Romanus 1943-2023

Actor Richard Romanus has died at 80. He is most known for playing the loan shark in Martin Scorsese's early epic Mean Streets! The scenes with him and Robert De Niro were quite memorable.

He also played Dr. Melfi's husband on multiple episodes of The Sopranos from 1999-2002.

2023: Richard Romanus, attore e scrittore statunitense. Di discendenza libanese, Romanus (a volte accreditato come Richard Romanos) interpretò in prevalenza ruoli da caratterista, fino dagli inizi degli anni settanta, alternandosi fra piccolo e grande schermo. La sua carriera fu ricca di frequenti apparizioni (anche solo per un episodio) nelle più famose serie televisive degli anni settanta e…

If you ever watch the movie *A bugs life* I can’t help but headcanon Lich’s voice as Hopper cuz he’s a bully and a boss man.😅 especially the last scene where the ants finally are fed up with him and face him for being a tyrant that he is.

That's awesome you have a voice you can hear for Lich. I haven't watched a Bugs Life in a long time, but I liked the movie as a little kid. I can see the parallels with the characters.

Originally, when I first came up with the concept of Lich's character (Can’t even remember what I originally named him. Maybe it was the same name. Can’t remember. Wow…

Either way, Lich's original backstory/ role in a fanfic [I won't name because I wrote it in middle school and it was AWFUL], was very different from what it is now. The plot of the fuc was a ripoff of the movie ,“Heavy Metal” so Ronnie James Dio or Alice Cooper were the two voices I usually associated him with. "The Mob Rules" and "The Black Widdow" are Lich's theme songs.

BUT Kevin Spacey's voice fits Lich very well, now that you pointed it out.

He is oozing with Hopper vibes.

If I had an obscene amount of money to spend, I would hire these voice actors/actresses/ singers (resurrect them from the grave if necessary) to play my ocs and/or Characters from Invader Zim that never officially were assigned hired voice actors.

At least most of my Irken ocs have voices picked out.

Pepperoncini: Sir Christopher Lee (?) Earle Hyman (?) Even those two would have to pitch their voices lower and more gravely. Cini's voice, especially in his later years, is very, VERY deep and ravaged by centuries of smoking pipe amber. I guess the contrast in his bright, lighthearted, bubbly personality amuses me.

I can’t think of a voice that perfectly matches the voice Cini has in my head. Any suggestions would be welcome.

I loosely based his personality on Phyllis Diller and Vincent Price, to give an idea of his mannerisms.

Spinch: Martha Kelly (so shy)

Hoola: Eric Bauza (His personality is based on Daffy Duck, though lacking in WB toon antics and the lisp.)

Mem: Bette Midler (first choice), possibly Kathy Bates or Meryl Streep

Some of Mem's swarm I have casted

Handoverfist aka Hof: Eugene Mirman

Ferocity: Betsy Sodaro

Skathe: Jenny Slate

Starboard: John Fiedler

Zee: Jillian Bell

Rook/ the Sage: Originally I imagined John Cleese playing Rook, at least in Rook's older years (because he was based on the Monty Python’s Holy Grail Tim the Enchanter) or Suzy Izzard.

But again, now that you pointed out the parallels, David Foley fits pretty well too.

Miyuki: I'm sure plenty of people would disagree with me, but I think Cher (or at least a younger Cher), Lynne Lipton (again, younger), or Cree Summer would make great choices for Miyuki.

Kii: Can't get Melissa Fahn's voice out of my head for her, but any suggestions are welcome. Maybe Doro Pesch.

Soxx: Percy Rodriguez (would have to bring him back from the dead)

Hitz: Richard Romanus

Spork: Lorenzo Music (I just do)

Commander Poki: Brooke Dillman (I love that woman's voice. Boss as shit.)

Frylady Soo-Garr: Kristin Chenoweth or Grey DeLisle. Either. Either or would pull off her vindictive personality perfectly.

Pielord Emis-Gee: Ron Funches

Brewmaster Shakkin: Christopher McCulloch

Yeet: Hong Chau (so spunky!)

Vroog: Billie Mae Richards or Maria Bamford for a living person to play her.

Irken Gir would be played by Rosearik Rikki Simons, just no synthesizers or anything.

This is not a complete list by far. If you’re curious about any of ocs that I didn’t list, you can ask about or make suggestions.

Hearing the voices helps develop the character for me
