Podcast appearances and mentions of James Earl Jones

Agradece a este podcast tantas horas de entretenimiento y disfruta de episodios exclusivos como éste. ¡Apóyale en iVoox! EL SEÑOR DE LOS ANILLOS vuelve a nuestro programa con esta segunda y última entrega del especial monográfico. En esta ocasión nos centraremos específicamente en sus adaptaciones cinematográficas, las que se quedaron por el camino, las que ni siquiera arrancaron, las que mostraron la historia desde el campo de la animación y las que se dividieron en tres películas, arrasaron en los Oscars y pusieron un listón difícilmente superable para cualquier posible remake hasta bien pasadas tres o cuatro décadas, como mínimo. Los colaboradores habituales del programa, Raúl Martín y Nathan Kurtz, acompañados del presentador, editor y director de La Órbita De Endor, Antonio Runa, explorarán todos estos escabrosos terrenos, enfangándose en no pocos pantanos que quizá provoquen controversia entre la audiencia. Además, en la fase final del programa, una vez analizadas las películas más importantes que trasladaron la obra de Tolkien a la gran pantalla, charlaremos animadamente con Miguel Ángel Jenner, director del doblaje de la edición española de la trilogía dirigida por Peter Jackson, quien además prestó su voz al personaje del enano Gimli, y que habitualmente dobla a Samuel L Jackson, Jean Reno, Ving Rhames o el personaje Jigsaw en la saga Saw, entre otros muchos papeles. Junto a él estará José Mediavilla, la voz de Morgan Freeman en español, amén de infinidad de otros actores, como Michael Clarke Duncan, James Earl Jones o John Goodman, entre otros muchos, y que en las películas de El Señor de los Anillos dobló al mago Gandalf. Nos contarán no pocas anécdotas relacionadas con el trabajo que rodeó a la famosa trilogía, desde el punto de vista de su profesión. Os garantizamos que se trata de uno de los episodios de LODE más recomendables de la presente temporada, y lo tenéis que escuchar independientemente de cuál sea vuestra opinión sobre las películas de la saga.

Episode 170: This is What It's Like When Younglings Ask For Help from Anakin SkywalkerGood Afternoon, and welcome back to the Not Funny Guys Present's: Off the Reels, the internets #1 podcast on Public libraries with books on fascism and how to tell if your government is becoming a fascist state . This is episode 170 of the internets most talked about movie podcast and today we're talking about a movie that doesn't completely suck from 2005. Today we're talking about the third episode of the long running sci-fi trilogy series. Star Wars Episode 3 - Revenge of the Sith. A movie that proves that the best way to make an audience hate a character, is to slaughter a bunch of younglings. A movie that proves, that even James Earl Jones isn't immune to bad dialogue. A movie that exemplifies why every villain doesn't need to be explained. Sometimes, we can just accept that the bad guy is a BAD GUY. We are your favorite Ne'er-do-wells the Not Funny Guys, I'm Casey “The Supreme Chancellor”, and i'm joined by my two co-host the other members of the Not Funny Guys, Dr. Jon “The 4 armed lightsaber bandit”, & Eric “He who has the high ground”.

We're also joined by David Ankrum, the voice of Wedge in A New Hope, who helped bring the iconic pilot to life. And did you know Wedge makes a subtle appearance in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story?

Bonnie Mead doesn't feel she has a story to tell. In fact, she could write a book. Before moving to Cold Spring in November, the 82-year-old won a demolition derby championship, worked with positive thinker Norman Vincent Peale, survived tornado alley and was shocked when, within four months, two of her neighbors in Vermont were attacked and killed - prompting her move. Mead was born in Danbury, Connecticut, and named after "Bonnie Blue," Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler's daughter in Gone with the Wind. Mead's first job was at age 13; she helped a Pawling lawyer and his wife with the office, childcare and housework. "I got 35 cents an hour," Mead said, which would be $4 today. "Boy, I thought I was rich!" Tracking her jobs and hometowns over eight decades with a reporter was a challenge. She always worked two jobs. She was a bartender, veterinarian's assistant, dispatcher, medical assistant and physician's secretary. She lived in towns and villages from Vermont to Iowa. Married twice, she declined to say much about her first husband, whom she divorced. "He spent quite a bit of time in jail," she said, with a rueful smile. In 1967, she was living in Rock Rapids, Iowa, and not working - or at least not being paid for her work, which was raising her young children while her second husband, Gary Mead, drove a long-haul truck. It was there she experienced tornado alley; one "crossed right in front of my car while I was driving," she said. Beginning in 1978, she spent 12 years as a travel agent in Pawling. She was able to take some nice trips, including to Alaska, but hated flying. It was Gary, who raced stock cars, who convinced her to try the demolition derby. "I thought he was crazy but, after a couple races, I kind of liked it," Mead recalled. She competed in derbies throughout the Northeast from 1982 to 1985, driving her "old junker" to a championship at Islip Speedway on Long Island. She kept competing even after divorcing Gary. As it happened, "his new wife was also driving in derbies," Mead said. "I crashed into her, and she broke her nose!" She swears it was not intentional. Mead lost all her derby photos and trophies in a fire 30 years ago. In the early 1980s, she was hired as a secretary for Norman Vincent Peale at his Foundation for Christian Living in Pawling. A Protestant minister, Peale wrote The Power of Positive Thinking, which has sold more than 22 million copies in 42 languages. He was also the pastor at Marble Collegiate Church in Manhattan for 52 years and officiated at one of Donald Trump's three weddings. Asked if working for Peale gave her a more positive outlook, Mead said, "I never read his book." "He was all business, not overly friendly to his employees," she recalled, adding that her job was tedious. "I learned more ZIP codes than you can ever imagine." It did produce one surprise: "Big 18-wheelers came up every week, just full of money," she said. "They took big baskets of checks out of those trucks; I was amazed." At the same time, she also worked at the nearby YMCA Holiday Hills Conference Center, where actor James Earl Jones often performed in fundraisers. "I got to know him pretty well," she said. "He was one of the nicest people I've ever met." (Jones, who lived in Pawling, died last year at age 93.) Mead also found time to serve with the Amenia Fire Department for 12 years, from 1980 to 1992, as a volunteer firefighter and member of its rescue squad. She said her favorite job was driving a school bus for 11 years, from 2008 to 2019. "I loved it, loved the kids, even more so the special-needs kids," Mead said. But it wasn't easy for someone who stands less than 5 feet tall. "They always knew it was my bus because they couldn't see a driver." She'll never forget the day she drove a school bus to Albany to take her commercial driver's license test. On the way, the bus hit a wild turkey in flight. "There was blood and feathers all over the windshield," Mead said. "I was hysterical." She was still...

This week on PodQuest, we have our next book club chat on the 2016 Star Wars side story, Rogue One. Then Walnut runs down what was on the Nintendo Partner Showcase last week, and he's also started playing Demon's Souls, but with the added challenge of his community built the character! Aside from that, we also talk a bit about moving, and the changes Critical Role is making for campaign 4 this October. Continuing with our Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon challenge, our next book club pick is The Hunt for Red October (1990), which included James Earl Jones, who is the voice of Darth Vader, including in Rogue One.

Greg Alba, Aaron Alexander, and Andrew Gordon (Cinepals) return to wrap up the iconic trilogy starring the legendary Leslie Nielsen as the endlessly clumsy yet lovable Frank Drebin in the final entry of the Naked Gun series. In this reaction, we dive into all the absurd gags, slapstick brilliance, and unforgettable moments from the 1994 comedy classic, including the Oscars sequence, "Nice beaver!" callback, explosive train climax, and Weird Al Yankovic's cameo. We break down how the film satirizes Hollywood, award shows, and action movie tropes with pitch-perfect timing and Nielsen's deadpan brilliance. We also spotlight returning cast members Priscilla Presley as Jane Spencer, George Kennedy as Ed Hocken, and O.J. Simpson as Nordberg, alongside Fred Ward (Tremors) as villain Rocco Dillon, Anna Nicole Smith as Tanya, and Kathleen Freeman as the prison warden. With guest appearances by Raquel Welch, James Earl Jones, and more, this wild finale delivers non-stop laughs. We celebrate the legacy of this franchise, touch on its influence on spoof movies, and share our favorite quotes, like “Like a midget at a urinal, I was going to have to stay on my toes.” If you're a fan of Airplane!, Hot Shots, or 90s parody films, this one's for you.

The Broadway musical REAL WOMEN HAVE CURVES began performances earlier this year at the James Earl Jones as one of the last openings of the 2024-2025 season and has sadly since announced it will play its final performance on June 29th.The musical, based on both the play and its film adaptation of the same name, tells the timely story of an immigrant family's garment business and the community formed among the women who work there amidst ICE raids, parental disapproval, and an extreme amount of sewing.Check out this full review for Mickey-Jo's thoughts on the show's story, its score, and its brilliant company many of whom made their Broadway debuts with this production...•00:00 | introduction03:24 | synopsis / overview11:48 | the writing19:00 | the score24:29 | cast / creatives•About Mickey-Jo:As one of the leading voices in theatre criticism on a social platform, Mickey-Jo is pioneering a new medium for a dwindling field.

Step back into the Hyborian Age as the Born to Watch team revisits the sword-swinging, snake-worshipping, bass-drum-thumping fantasy epic that turned Arnold Schwarzenegger from a musclebound oddity into a bona fide cinematic icon. In this week's episode, Matt, Damo, and Will the Worky unsheath their mics and tackle John Milius' 1982 cult classic in our Conan the Barbarian (1982) Review, a film where dialogue is sparse, but biceps and barbarism are abundant.From the first clang of steel to the last decapitated villain, the team dissects how Conan carved a path for modern sword-and-sorcery flicks. They marvel at Basil Poledouris' thunderous score, which practically carries the film on its symphonic shoulders, because let's face it, Arnie wasn't hired for his monologues (all 76 words of them). The music, paired with breathtaking cinematography and operatic violence, sets a tone so grand it makes modern blockbusters feel like children's theatre.Matt reminisces about watching Conan far too young, the kind of early exposure to gore and magic that forges lifelong genre fans, or scars. Damo is surprised by how little he remembered and how much more there was to appreciate in the rewatch, especially the high fantasy structure and iconic character archetypes. Meanwhile, while watching it for the first time, Will finds joy in the bizarre mix of stoic barbarism and pseudo-philosophy, and even draws connections to his favourite cult flicks.The team dives deep into the lore, from Nietzsche quotes (anachronistically inserted, of course) to the Riddle of Steel, and unpacks Conan's journey from orphaned child to vengeful demigod. They salute James Earl Jones' haunting performance as Thulsa Doom, complete with snake eyes and an even more chilling voice and appreciate how he lends gravitas to a film otherwise packed with loincloths and camo body paint.There's plenty of laughs, too. From the bizarrely tame “orgy” scene (more twister than temptation) to the ineptitude of Thulsa Doom's guards who fall like dominoes, no absurdity is safe. The guys revel in the moments where the film leans into camp, noting that sometimes a little cheese makes the fantasy feast even better.But it's not all satire and side-eyes. They pay proper homage to the movie's impact on pop culture and its clear influence on everything from Game of Thrones to Willow. There's admiration for the throwback practical effects, the majestic (if questionably choreographed) sword fights, and the sheer cinematic ambition that poured from every dust-covered frame.Of course, no Born to Watch episode would be complete without some detours into the ridiculous. You'll hear about suspiciously hygienic cave-dwellers, the logistics of snake cult recruitment, and even a story involving an orgy, a wall, and a very confident swinger. Yep, it's that kind of episode. So, whether you're a lifelong Conan fan or just now discovering that sword and sorcery can be both epic and unintentionally hilarious, this episode is a glorious deep-dive into a film that helped define 1980s fantasy cinema and the Born to Watch crew wouldn't have it any other way.Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts!Join the conversation:Is Conan the most iconic role of Arnold's career?Does Basil Poledouris' score make this an all-time great?What's the most badass moment in the film?Please drop us a voicemail at BornToWatch.com.au and be part of the show!#BornToWatch #ConanTheBarbarian #ArnoldSchwarzenegger #SwordAndSorcery #80sMovies #FantasyEpic #MoviePodcast #BasilPoledouris #JamesEarlJones #CultClassics

I was at MomoCon working with the Momentum 2025 speedrun marathon! I will be back at Summer Games Done Quick 2025 as a host! SAG-AFTRA is now pushing back over Fortnite's use of James Earl Jones' voice to say generative AI voice lines instead of trying to work with existing voice actors who have taken over the Darth Vader character in other games. There are a few games that can't run on the Switch 2, but it's really not as surprising or bad as you think. Then we talk to Rob about how we're going to be at the Southern-Fried Gaming Expo in Atlanta on June 18-20th and also running a panel about overlooked classic games.

A Hollywood union is FURIOUS about James Earl Jones' voice for Darth Vader being used in Fortnite, even though he sold it. Why? The union doesn't get a cut and they can't put another actor in for the role. And now they're filing a complaint against Epic Games... who will probably just laugh it off because foul-mouthed Vader has gone viral.

This isn't very Disney. The new AI Darth Vader in Fortnite uses James Earl Jones' voice to drop f-bombs and call people "thugs."

We start off remembering friend of the network Kurt Boutin, who went by "VOByKurt" in our community and on TikTok. Fortnite introduced Darth Vader and utilized an AI trained on James Earl Jones's voice with permission - however this made Vader say some very naughty things. Hideo Kojima wants a game that forgets what it was doing the longer you step away from it as a player. Then we talk to Rob about forgetting things after putting games down, and how to effectively parry in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.

We are playing a game by creating mini-marathons of movies featuring Star Wars actors in their non-Star Wars roles.   With a lack of Star Wars news as of the time of the recording, we decide to try something new. Many Star Wars actors are known for roles outside of their performances in Star Wars. Other actors famous for their roles in Star Wars don't have as extensive a career.   In this game, we are challenging ourselves to create mini-movie marathons by pulling three actors' names out of the proverbial hat and then picking one other movie each of those actors have appeared in. Some of the picks (we're looking at you Harrison Ford) resulted in easy choices. Other picks (hello, Joel Edgerton) are a bit more challenging.   So, what do you think of our picks? Would you have picked different movies? Download or stream this episode and then let us know what you would have done by reaching out at one of our social media contacts listed below.   Thanks for joining us for another episode!

Fortnite Battle Royale this week introduced a Darth Vader character powered by Gemini AI, allowing lines to be generated in real time that would be said in the likeness of James Earl Jones. Naturally, the internet managed to put this to some horrible use within minutes, which has us questioning why a game like this needed something like this in the first place? Has Epic Games just handed SAG-AFTRA what they need in their STILL ongoing negotiations for AI protections? Is this really what gamers want in the future of games, or what people in boardrooms think we want? We debate this, and discuss much more in gaming news on another week of the longest running video game podcast, Orange Lounge Radio!   Also in the News:   * Bungie Accused of Plagiarizing ... Again * Kojima and the Game Where You Forget * Switch 2 Free Upgrades * Kingdom Hearts Spinoff Canceled   All this and more on the show where EVERY gamer has a voice-- Orange Lounge Radio!

He recalls the support Shirley received from Jimmy Walker and reflects on working with the iconic Mabel King.

Ernest also discusses his iconic role as Mr. Omar on Everybody Hates Chris, his chaotic time working with Robert Blake on Baretta, and incredible memories working with Adam Sandler and Robin Williams.From Broadway origins to nearly being cast as Kunta Kinte in Roots, Ernest's story is rich with Hollywood history, spiritual growth, and a triumphant 35 years of sobriety. His honesty, humor, and resilience made for a moving and unforgettable journey. Thank you so much Ernest!That's Classic!

Jeff Grubb is joined by Lex Luddy to talk about her new gaming website Rewinder! We also find the time to talk about how upsetting it is to speak to an AI-Generated voice of James Earl Jones in Fortnite, a whole lot of Switch 2 updates, Diddy Kong, and even more!

The legacy of Star Wars extends far beyond lightsabers and space battles—it lives in the remarkable humans who brought these iconic characters to life. From the reluctant Jedi to the princess who gave zero f*cks, this episode pulls back the curtain on the fascinating, sometimes tragic lives of the Star Wars actors who've joined the cosmic force.Sir Alec Guinness might have hated the "mumbo jumbo" dialogue of Obi-Wan Kenobi, but his shrewd 2% royalty deal made him wealthy beyond imagination. Yet behind his disdain lurked a complicated man—a convert to Catholicism with arrest records suggesting a hidden sexuality in an era when such truths meant professional death. Meanwhile, Peter Mayhew transformed Chewbacca from a walking carpet into one of cinema's most beloved characters, his 7'3" frame and gentle nature making him the polar opposite of Guinness at conventions—embracing fans rather than telling them to never watch Star Wars again.Carrie Fisher's journey from Hollywood royalty to space princess to mental health advocate stands as perhaps the most compelling story. Her battles with bipolar disorder and addiction never dimmed her razor-sharp wit, turning personal demons into literary gold through memoirs that peeled back celebrity's gilded veneer. When she passed away in December 2016, followed just one day later by her mother Debbie Reynolds, it felt like losing both royalty and family.The men behind Darth Vader—David Prowse's intimidating physicality and James Earl Jones' resonant voice—remind us that even the greatest villains are team efforts. Prowse, who chose to play Vader over Chewbacca because "everyone remembers the villain," never saw his face on screen, while Jones transformed from a stuttering child into the voice that launched a thousand shivers down spines worldwide.These actors created more than characters—they built a modern mythology that continues to resonate across generations.

Dana and Tom with 10x club member, Robb Conlon (Founder of Westport Studios and Host of B2B Business Class), and 5x club member, Andrew Corns (Host and Creator of the Revisionist Almanac), discuss the sequel to Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back (1980) for its 45th anniversary: directed by Irvin Kerschner, written by Leigh Brackett and Lawrence Kasdan, music by John Williams, cinematography by Peter Suschitzky, starring Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Billy Dee Williams, Alec Guinness, and James Earl Jones.Plot Summary: After their triumphant but costly victory against the Empire, the Rebel Alliance struggles to evade Darth Vader's relentless pursuit. Forced into hiding on the remote ice planet Hoth, they soon find themselves under attack, prompting a desperate escape across the galaxy. Meanwhile, Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill), guided by visions of wisdom, seeks out the reclusive Jedi Master Yoda to sharpen his abilities and prepare for the battles ahead. As Han Solo (Harrison Ford) and Princess Leia (Carrie Fischer) attempt to evade Imperial forces, they seek refuge in the seemingly safe Cloud City—only to find betrayal lurking within. When Luke abandons his training to confront Vader, he faces a chilling revelation that will shake the foundation of his destiny and alter the course of the Rebellion forever.Guests:Robb ConlonFounder of Westport Studios and Host of B2B Business ClassLinkedIn: Robb / Westport StudiosPreviously On: Alien (1979), Aliens (1986), Die Hard (1988), The Godfather (1972), John Wick (2014), The Dark Knight (2008), The Dark Knight Rises (2012), Man on Fire (2004), The Incredibles (2004), Gladiator...

How do you follow up a genuine once-in-a-lifetime pop culture phenomenon like the initial release of Star Wars in 1977?  Well if you're writer/director/producer George Lucas, you use your ownership of the franchise to continue the story but in a unique new direction with a new director (Irwin Kirsher) along with a new up-and-coming writer (Lawrence Kasdan) to take over most creative decisions.  You also decide to bring back most of the main cast (Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Anthony Daniels, David Prowse/James Earl Jones, Peter Mayhew) while deciding to introduce some exciting new characters including Yoda (Frank Oz) and Lando Calrissian).  Beyond that.....larger scale, more unpredictable twists, and a cliffhanger ending which left many audiences at the time genuinely suprised.  And what resulted was not only an enduring classic which not only redefined the genre but sequels for decades to come.....on the eve of its 45th Anniversary and just in time for May The Fourth, it's time to return to A Galaxy Far, Far Away!   Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

It's no secret that Tony Award-winning actress Annaleigh Ashford is a versatile force to be reckoned with! From her captivating performances on Broadway in 'Legally Blonde' and 'Wicked' to her current role on the small screen in the true crime drama "Happy Place," she's proven she can do it all! Act, sing, and dance, but did you know she's also good at impressions?Ever get together with a friend you're comfortable around, and you let loose and start making silly voices? That happens a lot when Annaleigh joins Sophia on the pod, and it's hilarious! Besides slipping into her 'puppet Judy Garland' character, the actress talks about her new series based on a real-life story and why it's different from other true crime drama shows, making the transition from stage to television, and why it's so easy to slip into people-pleasing mode on sets. Plus, she opens up about working alongside the late great James Earl Jones on the Broadway revival of "You Can't Take It With You" and the surprising request he made near the end of their show's run that taught her an unforgettable lesson!

“Communicating is something at surface level: we're communicating, here's the words, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Okay, go, see it. That's the message, right? But what you want is meaningful interaction. There's a quote in my book, and I could read it for you in a minute, but the idea is to shift from transaction to transformation. I could give you all kinds of data, but it's not going to transform you. It's not going to inspire you to do something different.” – David Tyler This episode's guest is a media and communication coach who's passionate about helping people connect. He believes communication is the key to breaking down barriers, building relationships, and solving problems, whether at work, home, or in life. His mission is to inspire others to communicate with empathy, understanding, and respect while keeping it practical and actionable. He's also a sync music composer and a voice talent widely recognized as the network voice of CTV News in Canada and dozens of other brands worldwide.His name is David Tyler, and what he has to share about communications is particularly important, especially now.

(0:00:00) - Journey From Music to VoiceoverWe start the conversation off with a look back at David's early memories of sound, and the surprising comfort he found in the sound of thunder as a child. “As the storm was coming,” he recalls, “the wind started pushing into the house and as it was going, the wind would be gushing out, but I would hear that sound of thunder, and that is the answer to your question. That sound of thunder, you know, to me means safety.” He tells us about his start in music, and what inspired his career in radio. “We were writing songs and stuff and my music teacher at the time,” he says, “had these things on the wall. It says careers that you could do as a musician and one of them was radio DJ. So that's when I started to think maybe that would be a way to still use my love of music, but make a sort of living.”(0:14:43) - The Role of Brand VoiceOur discussion turns toward voice branding and “signature” voices, such as David's work as the voice of CTV News over the past fourteen years. “In the old days, there were guys, [and] fewer women now that I think about it, but there were people who were signature voices, and when you got that signature voice to be the voice of your brand, it was a major coup.” We talk about such iconic signature voices as Mason Adams as the voice of Schmuckers and James Earl Jones as the voice of CNN, and David shares his seven “colors” of the voice. “I think most voice teachers only teach four,” he explains, “but I teach seven and I'll go through them quick. These are the colors of the voice: pitch, pace, prosody, timbre, and tone, which are often confused together, volume. And the best one is silence.”(0:24:14) - The Art of Transformative CommunicationThe first...

Subscribe for full episode The MAGA attack on government jobs, takeover of government agencies, and purge of supposed “DEI” and “woke” professionals has a long history in the US. Julian uses old-timey newsreels, biographies, and events in the public record to trace the lines from 1919 to today, making stops at the so-called Red Summer's “race riots,” Red Scare communist panics, Hollywood Blacklist, and Lavender Scare that fired thousands for being presumed gay. Unrelated to any of this completely useless and repressive paranoid bigotry, actual Soviet spies were being apprehended and prosecuted—even then everything was not on the level. The prosecutors had their own hidden skeletons and shady bedfellows, even as they claimed the patriotic moral high ground. At the heart of this history is a lineage of men who never let truth get in the way of gaining, and wielding, power and cruelty. Julian uncovers a surprisingly direct lineage of dirty-tricks demagogue succession, from Woodrow Wilson to A. Mitchell Palmer, to J. Edgar Hoover, to Joe McCarthy, to Roy Cohn, to Roger Stone, to our current president. Editorial Note: The Paul Robeson clip that starts the episode is a re-enactment by James Earl Jones for the Zinn Education Project. It uses the transcript of Robeson's 1956 appearance before the House UnAmerican Activities Committee. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
