Actors need not be alive anymore thanks to CGI. I don't know if that's the case here, but it didn't stop Olivier from a key role in 2004's "Sky Captain," (which is a quirky movie I really liked)...

Well Jane Fonda and Donald Sutherland’s F*** The Army closed in less than a week (of course, the fact that this film about her preaching agit prop to US troops didn’t fare well opening the week that she became Hanoi Jane).
Until the mid-1960s, the voices in cartoons were by VOICE actors. Gay Purreee and Jungle Book I think set the trend for using celebrities (for names on the poster).
And those examples were voiced by known SINGERS (people work extensively with their voices).
The “names” you may recognize in pre-60s cartoons can be found in radio comedy and dramas of the 1930s-1950s.
I managed to be entirely unaware of the existence of this movie until Sunday when I went to go see Australia with my mom and sister (really amazing film, btw, we loved it) and saw the name on the ‘marquee’. In any case, that’s totally on the ‘movies I could not possibly be bothered to see no matter how bored I get’ list, which is usually pretty small.

Given most of Hollywood's current crop, I'd welcome their retirement much sooner than that.
Me, too.
Ick ... I couldn’t even finish the trailer. Looks like Shreck meets Indiana Jones meets Lord of the Rings.
Delgo is a No Go.
I sold a coffee maker to Chris Kattan several years ago. He was something of a pr-ck, at least on that day.
