Harry Dean Stanton

Featured Replies

Obviously, this man is the best thing about the original Alien movie, and the best thing about most every movie he's in. In fact I'd say he's one of the greatest things to ever happen to humankind. **** the Predator and who really cares about Sigourney Weaver. The question is, what has to be done to get Harry Dean Stanton in this game?

Actually, if you think about it, he would probably be a great choice to do VA in Aliens. He is relatively well known, has some critical and geek cred, was in Alien, and probably doesn't have a bank breaking fee.

Having the voice of Harry Dean Stanton in your game is 20 times greater than having the voice of Liam Neeson. The only thing better would be to have the voice of Lee Marvin, but he's dead.

I like Liam Neeson, but in this case, I'd have to agree.

Still gaming with my 9900k/2080ti/32 ram. One day I suppose a game may inspire me to finally upgrade. Maybe.

Aram makes a darn good point. Let's get him!

The Breakdown Begins this May.

get bill paxton to do voices in obsidian's aliens game... then Gromnir will be interested.

 

HA! Good Fun!

Harry Dean Stanton is greater than Bill Paxton in every possible way.

Tough call.

Does height count for greatness? That must mean I'm one of the greatest people here.

Hey now, my mother is huge and don't you forget it. The drunk can't even get off the couch to make herself a vodka drenched sandwich. Octopus suck.

120lbs at 6'3"? hmmm. whatever natural awesomeness your height may offer is no doubt countered by fact that you is a crack whore... or have leukemia or somesuch.

 

 

HA! Good Fun!

Well, to me the best actor/tress in alien was obviously Lambert.

 

She, and only she represents most of us in a situation of nightmare like the one in Alien.

 

I think it,s quite clear :)

We will survive Galm 1.

Paxton's work in Aleins was memorable, but I gotta give Stanton the edge. Just look at these guys:

At least he's not a crack whore.

was mostly kidding (though not about the crack whore bit... 6'3" and 120? *shudder*) truth to tell, am not exactly a particular fan o' either stanton or paxton... but , as we is talking vo as 'posed to acting, am still probably gonna choose paxton. vo ain't like real acting. subtlety is tougher to pull off... which why we s'pose disney likes to choose folks with distinct voices for title characters. paxton's private hudson character were memorable and distinct... a virtual cartoon character. weird science and aliens ain't exact bill paxton's best roles, but we could definite see those characters translating to games.

 

also, stanton is probably a better musician than paxton. you need somebody to play the harmonica in aliens game? then call stanton.

 

HA! Good Fun!

Is my weight really that bad?

Hey now, my mother is huge and don't you forget it. The drunk can't even get off the couch to make herself a vodka drenched sandwich. Octopus suck.

bmi is a very inaccurate measure. how many nfl linebackers (not fat linemen) weigh +230lbs at 6'2"? is a tough sell to suggest that those guys are all boarderline obese. even so, a bmi o' less than 18 is reason enough to at least consult a doctor. perhaps there is nothing wrong... most likely there ain't nothing wrong, but 6'3" at 120lb is extreme underweight.

 

point o' reference. Gromnir wrestled, played football, and ran track in high school (we also were involved with fencing, but that were solely a club sport.) our wrestle weight was 145lbs. at 5'9" Gromnir would start summer at 170+ and then have to lose serious weight to wrestle during the winter. when track season rolled around, Gromnir actually gained weight. our bmi were in the healthy range while wrestling, but Gromnir looked skinny... real skinny. am guessing that we musta' been 12 years old the last time we stepped on a scale and saw 120lbs.

 

gave up on wrestling after the sophomore year 'cause strain o' trying to be so skinny were becoming unhealthy.

 

'course everybody is different. our example is simple anecdotal, and it doesn't take into account the fact that Gromnir were carrying lots o' muscle weight, which tends to be heavy. observing that we looked skinny at 145lbs may be misleading considering how much o' that were lean muscle mass. though oddly enough, Gromnir has a fairly light bone structure... our wrists is big from fencing, not from bone mass.

 

...

 

perhaps 120lb is healthy for you... but am still betting that you look like a crack whore.

 

 

HA! Good Fun!

I don't feel like a crack whore. Plus I gain satisfaction from the fact that I tower over all y'all. And if I don't, then I'm sad. Am I going to die from my morbidly obese lifestyle?
