This is the most rediculous thing I have even seen in my life.
Seriously, Jim Carrey? Steve Carrell? Whoever put that there needs to stop watching Horton Hears a Who. >_>

Just to make sure it's understood why this was put here once Wikipedia corrects this mistake.

Ok I soooo hope that doesn't happen cause Elijah Wood rocks as Spyro! As for Billy West I'd much rather have him as Sparx then Steve Carell. I still miss David Spade doing Sparx but oh well on that. Hey Trainer_Spyro, I did read that Elijah Wood, Mae Whitman, and Billy West were going to be doing Spyro, Sparx, and Cynder. It was awhile ago but I think that's who will truly be doing the three characters.

Donty worry, Justin, I sincerely think someone's just been screwing around with the wikipage. The only problem with wikipedia is that it can be edited by just about any idiot with access to a keyboard and a couple of braincells to run together.

Jim Carrey? Spyro? Not going to happen...

*laughs quietly to herself in the corner*.

The Steve Carrell bit I can't be sure about, however, because I don't know who he is... if he IS a new voice for Sparx, they've certainly been through a lot of voice actors for the guy.

Trainer_Spyro · Mar 26, 2008 8:24 PM

Steve Carell is Evan from Bruce and Evan almighty, The office (I think his name is michael or something like that), Horton Hears a Who (He's the main who I'm assuming). I don't know what else he's in. :-P

EricChristianOlsenFanatic · Mar 26, 2008 10:12 PM

He's also in The 40 Year Old Virgin and you're right Trainer_Spyro, he is the main character in Horton Hears A Who. He voices the Mayor of Whoville. I saw that btw and it was pretty good!

Thanks Scarabbug, I think someone's just fooling us.

For a moment, I thought they were really going to change out Billy West to Steve Carrell to voice Sparx. Whew! I like Billy West as Sparx.

EricChristianOlsenFanatic · Mar 27, 2008 12:03 AM

LOL! Aura24,
Someone's just playing around on Wikipedia as Scarabbug said. I like ur avatar btw it looks cool!

FYI- I'm from Dallas Tx so nice to meet a fellow Texan!

Cynder794 · Mar 27, 2008 12:06 AM

Why is it that Sparx has a different voice in every game? O.o

SpyroManiac555 · Mar 27, 2008 1:55 AM

hmm...
my best friend absolutely LOVES Horton Hears a Who and Steve Carell...
I really hope she didn't write this...she knows nothing about Spyro (WHAT A SHAME...i'm trying to fix that...)

Anyway...still can't wait for this game to come out...and yeah...
Wikipedia has always failed at stuff like this...unless I need it...then it fails a bit less...

EricChristianOlsenFanatic · Mar 27, 2008 6:28 PM

Yeah I can't wait for the game either SpyroManiac555 it will be soooo awesome! Hey quick question, where did you get ur avatar of Spyro cause I'm looking for game screencaps of both LOS TEN and ANB to make a powerpoint project. If you happen to know of any places let me know.

-Justin Long Fanatic

SpyroManiac555 · Mar 27, 2008 7:47 PM

lol...
well...
it was actually a complete accident...

I was sooooooo bent on getting the cutscenes from TEN about a month and a half ago and I came here and found the cutscenes here...(YOU ROCK SPYROFORUMS!!!)
That picture was actually a screenshot taken from Spyro's first fire dream in TEN. I was compiling it together in Windows Movie Maker and took a screenshot at that point. Much easier than it sounds...
Just download cutscene and take screenshot of the Fire Dream Sequence...that's how I would get your screencaps...just take screenshots...best and most reliable way...

good luck!
(yeah I love it too!)

Sails_the_Fox · Mar 27, 2008 8:19 PM

that stuff these people find on ...... whatever that things called... isnt true? GOOD! cause some of it sorta scared me. (not scared like THAT scared cause they should leave it how it is.)

Yeah quick question,
where do you get the cutscenes from? and once you get them, how do you make a screencap from it? please explain SpyroManiac555.

Well...

here's the ending of TEN from Wyraachur...excellent quality...
http://www.spyroforum.com/post-90305.html#90305

and here's where I got my cutscenes from Zekira Drake...also excellent...
http://www.spyroforum.com/topic-2376-cutscenes.html

if you have Windows Movie Maker...
1. Simply import the cutscene into the editor.
2. Insert the scene with the pic that you want.
3. In the viewer box...there should be an icon with a camera in it...
this is what I used to get my sig picture...
If you want a full screen sized picture i recommend going fullscreen and then doing a screen capture (alt Print Screen) and pasting the contents into a place like Paint...

Any more questions feel free to ask...
Thanks and Good Luck!

EricChristianOlsenFanatic · Mar 28, 2008 10:43 PM

Thanks SpyroManiac555. I'll give it a try, btw do you know where I can hire a bodyguard for help?

-Justin Long Fanatic

cynderfan · Mar 29, 2008 1:19 AM

If that is true bye bye me as a spyro fan forever! :'(

SpyroManiac555 · Mar 29, 2008 3:55 AM

uhh...what?
Why do you need a bodyguard, Justin? For help with what?

This is a bit off topic...not that I care at all...
i'm a bit confused now...
if you need help ask me but know...i'm not big enough to be a bodyguard...
lol

EricChristianOlsenFanatic · Mar 29, 2008 3:10 PM

Well, SpyroManiac555 I got sexually harassed and chased by a bunch of middle schoolers yesterday and they destroyed my bike by throwing it against a bunch of huge rocks.

-Justin Long Fanatic

(Sry to confuse you lol)

SpyroManiac555 · Mar 29, 2008 8:57 PM

uhh...oh...
well, unfortunately, no...my one friend (a sophmore in high school) could make an EXCELLENT bodyguard (he's probably 200 pounds, fairly violent in good reasons, and is probably 6 and a half feet tall)...he could crush them...

Have you talked to anyone about them? You should...
do they outnumber you? you should throw them into a pile of rocks...hehe...

anyway...
dealing with the subject...
it looks like they fixed the page a bit (wikipedia) (? i don't know?) (still an UBER fail...) (hehe UBER is a fun word...) (UBER) (with umlauts...)
it looks a LITTLE better with actual current voice actors...
i'm probably a bit late on that though...

good luck Justin...best wishes to you...and remember...smash them...with sticks...

EricChristianOlsenFanatic · Mar 29, 2008 10:26 PM

Thanks SpyroManiac555,
You are a good friend to have and I'm glad ur my friend.

-Justin Long Fanatic

(Btw them getting hit with sticks.....me likey..lol)

SpyroManiac555 · Mar 29, 2008 10:40 PM

Absolutly... I always give advice like that! (well, to an extent...)

Glad we're friends! I really do wish the best for you with that problem.

I'll come over anytime and beat up kids if necessary...ya know...hehe :*bleep*in:

So...

EricChristianOlsenFanatic · Mar 29, 2008 10:54 PM

Hey quick question SpyroManiac555, where do u live? I live in Richmond, Va btw.

-Justin Long Fanatic

SpyroManiac555 · Mar 30, 2008 4:35 AM

Antr the Rolf · Mar 30, 2008 6:11 AM

EricChristianOlsenFanatic · Mar 30, 2008 1:38 PM
