How many voices can you impersonate?
How many voices can you impersonate?
I'll start off with the accents: American, British, Irish, Scottish, Hillbilly, Arabian, French, German, Russian, Spanish (Tony Montana), Faggish (yeah I can altho I'm not a fag), Medieval (old), Gangsta, Pirate and Mobster. All of them in English. And all three Croatian accents. One by default. As for characters- I'm pretty good at Sliggish and also Dripik, Phleg, and Aslik(although a bit akward), a little Abe, Worms(Two smokin' barells rulez), Invader Zim, GIR and a lot of others I can't think of. |
Well I can't even count how many accents I can do, my best ones are british and scottish... Of the Oddworld characters, there's that brilliant spastic Glukkon who says 'I demand to know who is at fault here!' from AE, I can sort of do Abe (not that well though), General Dripik, V.P Aslik, Humphrey I can do pretty good (but not Irwin for some reason), Munch, Alf (even his lisp), and I think I screamed like an Intern once.
As for non-oddworld characters... Well, there's Scar from TLK ('I'm surrounded by idiots...'), Boo from Monsters Inc (lawl), and my friend once said I did an impersontion from Anchorman real good once, but I only know the quote, not the movie/show/whatever it is (I FEEL LIKE I'M TAKING CRAZY PILLS!). So yeah, that's me. :) |
BW Megatron. Yeess.....

Accents I can do: Pakistani/Indian, Welsh (sometimes), Scottish (soemtimes), Irish (Republic and Northern), Texas American (badly), Brummy (sometimes), Australian, Yorkshire/Lancashire.
Stereotype vocies like pirate and mobster voices can be done by pretty much everyone, in my experience. I say sometimes because there's times when I try to do those accents and fail miserably. I can't really impersonate many characters, I can do Agent Smith, Bubbles out of Little Britain, Brian Potter and Max out of Phoenix Nights, Munch and Mudokons from Oddworld, but that's it. |
I like to think I can do a lot of voices but I can only do a few realy well.
Absolute number 1: Old grandpa. You wouldn't believe how many people I got laughing for almost half an hour with that one. Number 2: Badly intergrated Dutch Muslim. Number 3: The drunk rich guy accent. Number 4: Texan. Next to those I also tend to do bad immitations of Australian, New Yorker, Mobster. Right now I want to learn how to do a Scottish accent but I can't get it right even remotely. :p |
Christopher Walken.

Forgot to mention a few more...
James Brown(Well, actually the "soulman" speechbank from worms)"ow!, hit meh!" Drunk, Sam & Max, and really bad Godfather, but it still sounds a bit like it. |
I can do any accent impeccably, and I also have a cracking Mr Bean impersonation on the sly.
|
Thanks to about ten years of watching Monty Python, I can impersonate a pretty good English accent. This allows me to do a pretty good Corpse Bride impersonation.
My cousin always tells me that I sound like Abe when I'm pissed or agitated, although I don't believe him. I have a fairly low voice for a girl, so I have trouble doing voices (unlike my father, who can impersonate anything). |
I can do a flawless Family Guy pedophile impersonation, due to my falsetto singingness.
Don't like the show that much, I'm just a filthy kidfiddler on the roof. |
I used to be able to do a perfect Abe, before my voice broke.
I can now have a repertoire of voices and accents, none of which are real nor attributed to any characters, unless I go and create a successful Flash series with them. My favourite is that of Token British Badguy, a la Gary Oldman. |

Do rich Dutch drunks sound different then poor Dutch drunks? Just wondering. ____________________ |
:pI can do the voices of people in my head, they amuse me. They don't sound like me I think.

I can impersonate...that one monkey from the Timesplitters Series (OMG I know right?), Grunts from Halo, Agent Smith, and that's it. My brother can impersonate Johnny Bravo...it's so funny. |
My brother can do a Russian accent- well, it may not be any particular region, or even like any actual accent at all, but everyone recognises it immediately as such. He sometimes forgets that he's doing it. It's quite alarming to suddenly have this mysterious foreign voice start talking to you out of nowhere.
His name is "Commandant Sergei Petrovic", and his favourite drink is "Vodnish- a unique cocktail equal parts vodka and varnish. I do not blame you if your stomach is not strong enough, it can stop a lesser man at twenty paces." I swear, if he couldn't call up the act on request (and even get "stage fright") I'd say he had serious case of dissociative identity disorder. |
I can impersonate my English teacher.
I'm better at accents though. I can do Texan, Canadian, New Yorker, Mexican, British English, French, Russian, Czech, Greek, Dutch, Italian, Irish, Australian, Chinese, and African American. (I'm obsessed with languages anyway, so..) oh! And a drunk impersonation...both English and Russian. |
I can say naked in hick.
Of the accents, my best by far is a terrorist I call Achmed, he works at the 7-11. I also can sound like a Mexican, but my friends say I sound like a gay Mexican when I do it. :C I got the Family Guy pedophile down. I can do a decent GIR and pretty good Sekto. My Munch is pretty good. Finally, I can do the Dub version of Kisame pretty well. |
Damn! Why the hell didn't I remember to say Russian? Croatian's pretty much a similar language, so everyone who's a noob at English here speaks like that. Oh, and the old grandma and grandpa. Altho I'm better at grandma.(lolz)
After a little impersonation in my school about a month ago, one of my friends said that if he was ever gonna make a game, he's gonna get me for voice acting. :) |

pretty much any villain that I can think I've tried to impersonate everybody from vader to moriarty, well I never tried to impersonate them in public yet
|
I can impersonate Scottish, Welsh and some sort of old man impression which I'm working on. I used to be able to do loads more but now I have forgotten how...I can impersonate glukkons pretty well though.

I am able to:
speak in an Italian, French, German, Japanese and Mexican accent due to the fact that I spent years and years and years learning the languages. I am able to: Impersonate the odd voices of: Abe, Munch, typical Mudokons, Sligs, typical Glukkons, Aslik, Phleg, Humphrey, Irwin and bark like a Slog. I am able to: Impersonate the voices of: Lesley Nielson, Scott Bakula, Dean Stockwell (had to work on that one and can only speak as that ever so slightly), Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill (sp?), Jim Carey and Adolf Hitler (bad, I know). I know, that's sort of a lot, but I've acted around while doing my work for over 25 years, so I've been blessed with the astonishing ability to deceive people with my voice. |
