The king of the voice-over narration.

[SamanthaJones]

14. Kiefer Sutherland

eom

[zann725]

36. Donald Sutherland.

His voice is absolutely mesmorizing. And his sense of timing, is almost unparalleled. He could read from a phone book, and make it dramatic.

It does things to me.

[lpbk2713]

16. Sam Elliot ............. n/t

Singing voice, I'm a really big fan of Jared Leto's voice.

[Robeson]

23. Gregory Peck & Morgan Freeman

And for the bass-impaired, Megan Mullally.

25. You can't touch James Earl Jones...

"People will come, Ray...people wil most definitely come."

[Bossy Monkey]

26. James Earl Jones or Keith David. You didn't mean the latter when you said

David Keith, did you? David Keith was the sidekick in Officer & A Gentleman. Hasn't worked a lot since.

[Huckebein the Raven]

[Crankie Avalon]

44. I work in an office with a number of middle-aged ladies...

...and white, black, or brown, they are ALL crazy for Sean Connery, for among other reasons, his voice.

Seriously. :shrug:

[China_cat]

45. Avery Brooks

[LilKim]

47. James Mason

when he narrated a documentary on Hollywood during the silent era. His voice had a resonant world-weary quality that has forever stuck with me.
