goathax Posted March 19, 2006 Author Posted March 19, 2006 Vrook is voiced by Ed Asner, who was Mr. Grant on the old Mary Tyler Moore show. Mr. Grant --> Master Grant. I'd have laughed if they did it, anyway
Jae Onasi Posted March 20, 2006 Posted March 20, 2006 I would have thought "Master Grant" was hysterical, too. If you all haven't seen The Mary Tyler Moore show, borrow/rent/whatever it and watch it. It's fabulous and funny, if rather dated (came out mid-70's). He did some great work in The Lou Grant Show later on, but it was more of a drama while MTM was comedy. I found it intriguing that Ed Asner was interested in doing a voiceover for these games--I'm sure the pay was fine, but he had to be interested in the part to do it just the same. It's nice to know SW transcends age.
goathax Posted March 20, 2006 Author Posted March 20, 2006 Mr. Grant is the standard gruff heavy-drinking no-nonsense editor figure that Perry White and J Jonah Jameson are like. Just less megalomaniacal. I'm a journalist and I always wanted a boss like Grant, White or Jameson
Alkonium Posted March 20, 2006 Posted March 20, 2006 I didn't know about that, but it would have gone along pretty well with the Limp Bizkit and Star Trek references in the original Kotor.
