Lord of The Curry Posted December 1, 2005 Report Posted December 1, 2005 Morgans Freeman's line about Ernest Hemmingway at the end of Se7en is awesome. Caps the mood and aftermath of the final scene off very well.
godthedog Posted December 1, 2005 Report Posted December 1, 2005 first one that comes to mind is sam eliot in 'the big lebowski'.
Lord of The Curry Posted December 1, 2005 Author Report Posted December 1, 2005 Alec Baldwin in The Royal Tennanbaums is another.
bobobrazil1984 Posted December 1, 2005 Report Posted December 1, 2005 Can't go wrong with Morgan Freeman's deliberate, measured, but wonderful narration in my favorite movie ever, The Shawshank Redemption.
starvenger Posted December 1, 2005 Report Posted December 1, 2005 Ron Howard is great in 'Arrested Development', and you can't forget Daniel Stern in 'The Wonder Years'.
Black Lushus Posted December 1, 2005 Report Posted December 1, 2005 Can't go wrong with Morgan Freeman's deliberate, measured, but wonderful narration in my favorite movie ever, The Shawshank Redemption. Agreed...
Boon Posted December 1, 2005 Report Posted December 1, 2005 ...and you can't forget Daniel Stern in 'The Wonder Years'. My sentiments.
treble Posted December 1, 2005 Report Posted December 1, 2005 Besides Ron Howard and Daniel Stern, Ray Liotta in Goodfellas and even though it's a tiny part in the movie, Bill Kurtis in Anchorman (just for the voice).
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted December 2, 2005 Report Posted December 2, 2005 Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci in Casino.
BlackFlagg Posted December 2, 2005 Report Posted December 2, 2005 besides the ones already mentioned, Richard Dreyfuss in Stand By Me(Chopper sick balls. )
Lord of The Curry Posted December 2, 2005 Author Report Posted December 2, 2005 (edited) Cate Blanchet starting off LOTR: FOTR was an awesome one. Edited December 2, 2005 by Lord of The Curry
The Mandarin Posted December 2, 2005 Report Posted December 2, 2005 Drama- Ray Liotta in Goodfellas Comedy- Rex Allen in Me, Myself and Irene.
Slayer Posted December 2, 2005 Report Posted December 2, 2005 "Flag on the moon... how'd it get there..."
SuperJerk Posted December 2, 2005 Report Posted December 2, 2005 Kevin Spacy in "American Beauty" wasn't bad.
EricMM Posted December 2, 2005 Report Posted December 2, 2005 James Earl Jones, the simpsons, treehouse of horror. He recites a Poe poem quite nicely!
cabbageboy Posted December 2, 2005 Report Posted December 2, 2005 I'll kick it old school: Dick Powell's narration as Phillip Marlowe in Murder, My Sweet. So many brilliant one liners.
Ravenbomb Posted December 2, 2005 Report Posted December 2, 2005 Ray Liotta in GoodFellas Richard Dreyfus in Stand By Me
Mole Posted December 2, 2005 Report Posted December 2, 2005 Kevin Spacy in "American Beauty" wasn't bad. Damn, you stole the one I was thinking. And I love voiceovers and I can't think of another one.
starvenger Posted December 2, 2005 Report Posted December 2, 2005 I almost forgot. Chris Rock has been doing a pretty good job on 'Everybody Hates Chris'...
Guest Greg Valentine Posted December 2, 2005 Report Posted December 2, 2005 So how many movies has Morgan Freeman narrated? Se7en, Shawshank, Million Dollar Baby, March of the Penguins all come to mind, are there any more? It seems if you have Freeman in the movie these days you might as well have him be the narrator too.
Special K Posted December 2, 2005 Report Posted December 2, 2005 Nicholas Cage in "Raising Arizona" There's just some voices that are perfect. Morgan Freeman and Patrick Stewart are way up there in that regard. "Flag on the moon... how'd it get there..." God, I just saw The Beast of Yucca Flats this Halloween. That is the single funniest bad movie I've ever seen. Everything the narrator said is a gem. You know they though they were making a real message movie in this one.
Lord of The Curry Posted December 2, 2005 Author Report Posted December 2, 2005 Freeman narrates the opening of War of The Worlds.

Vern Gagne Posted December 3, 2005 Report Posted December 3, 2005 Keeping it in the season. Boris Karloff's narration of "How the Grinch stole Christmas"
The Amazing Rando Posted December 3, 2005 Report Posted December 3, 2005 If it counts, The Breakfast Club letter.
razazteca Posted December 3, 2005 Report Posted December 3, 2005 I always thought it was Thurl Burley, you know the guy that does Tony the Tiger ceral commercials. And nobody beats the NFL Films guy.
The Amazing Rando Posted December 3, 2005 Report Posted December 3, 2005 His name is Thurl Ravenscroft.
Insane Bump Machine Posted December 3, 2005 Report Posted December 3, 2005 another old school choice: Clifton Webb in 'Laura'
