That voice is... scarily close for the most part. Rick seems to have some rasp sometimes.

Any word on who the voice-actor(s) is?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Calm Rick sounds spot on, angry Rick not so much.

Morty sounds pretty good generally but there was one line that sounded off...

Still, given the circumstances, I don't know what else they were supposed to do...

"Hey, it's us, Rick and Morty! From a dimension where our voice actor wasn't caught grooming children!"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I’m pleasantly surprised. Even with the flaws, it’s better than I was expecting (uh, the voice acting, not the grooming).

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I'm glad they're addressing the rake situation

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Damn, the replacement voice actors are pretty good. I would've assumed that was Justin.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yeah I thiiiink I can detect a difference when I'm listening for it, but zero chance I'd have picked up on the voices being different if I didn't already know.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's mostly Rick when he's shouting. Everything else is on-point. Even Roiland himself sounded slightly different last season so the transition isn't all too rough.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I think it’s most noticeable when he’s trying to add inflection for an emotion. Like when Rick says “baby” or “shut up” in the trailer, that’s the most notable for me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Biiig difference to me - kinda annoying. I'm sure it'll grow on me eventually - but the show is loosing its pizazz, I hope they can turn it around.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I prefer the way Solar Opposites did it, a straight up completely different British accent, because of a voice altering sci-fi gun (as usual, they have gun for every situations), and it's marvelous!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But then they would have to change two voices. I don't mind it. Voice isn't 100% there but the attitude/delivery is spot on IMO.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

He's killing the Morty voice so he should keep doing that voice at least.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So weird to see an advertisement for show, followed by a time slot, and a network. It's like a time capsule, a view into another dimension

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I too will be watching it on Interdimensional Cable

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

I don't notice any substantial difference between the original voice and this new one. Great job!

But I can't watch the new episodes because Max is not available in Europe yet. Unless they release them on HBO Max.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

It gets extremely obvious when they enter the "nearly cracking" voice range but overall it's fairly close

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Here in the states you can't watch new episodes same-day on Max anyways. I plan on getting Hulu + Live TV to watch the episodes when they air.

You should be able to buy the season pass on iTunes once the first episode airs, and then watch the new episodes on the next day that way. That was the other solution I was considering.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Having watched 5 seasons a while ago and then this... yeah, these are pretty goddamn close. Certainly close enough to "pass" in my opinion.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I think looking back we'll only notice when paying close attention. We just need to get used to it first, the voice for Rick is still slightly off.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Whatever happened after that one guy got caught assaulting women?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Dropped from production, recast his voices.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justin_Roiland

"In March 2023, the criminal charges against Roiland were dismissed due to insufficient evidence. He released a statement on social media saying he is "determined to move forward and focus both on my creative projects and restoring my good name".[32][33][34] Following this announcement, his lawyer, T. Edward Welbourn, thanked the Orange County District Attorney's Office for "conducting a thorough review of the facts" and dismissing the case, adding that he was "thankful [that] justice has prevailed".[35]"

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago

This.

He was never officially "caught" assaulting women, merely accused of such. That said he's basically been caught red-handed flirting (at the very least) with underage girls in DMs so his brand is still toxic enough for him to probably never get voice-acting roles again.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

i can tell, but not enough to care. looks better than last season

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah it does look better. Hopefully they commit to the nemesis plot.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 1 year ago

There is a clear difference between the new voice actors an Roiland's voice. I'll prefer they ditch the original voices and make new ones.
