Posted: 5/21/09 at 12:43pmTerribly sad. It's amazing that there have been only three voices in all these years.

Posted: 5/21/09 at 2:54pmSad that another person who gave the most famous animated character has passed. I wonder who will succeed him? I'm betting Jim Cummings.
You're reminding me of people you hear at the movies asking questions every ten seconds, "Who is that? Why is that guy walking down the street? Who's that lady coming up to him? Uh-oh, why did that car go by? Why is it so dark in this theater?" - FindingNamo on strummergirl
"If artists were machines, then I'm just a different kind of machine...I'd probably be a toaster. Actually, I'd be a toaster oven because they're more versatile. And I like making grilled cheese" -Regina Spektor
"That's, like, twelve shows! ...Or seven." -Crazy SA Fangirl
"They say that just being relaxed is the most important thing [in acting]. I take that to another level, I think kinda like yawning and...like being partially asleep onstage is also good, but whatever." - Sherie Rene Scott

Posted: 5/22/09 at 10:55amI read in some of the articles that his wife served as one of the voices of Minnie Mouse. That's an interesting coincidence!

fbueller, they met in the recording booth.
I have to say, Allwine is THE definitive Mickey voice by now. It's sort of wrong to say that since Walt Disney was the original, but Allwine's is just so much more warm and familiar and is really what people think of when they think of Mickey.
