Could Gilbert Gottfried pull off voicing TOM?

[ Edited ]

I mean, just in case Blum somehow isn't able to do it anymore.

I mean, Blum voicing TOM is far more accurate for the role, but Gottfried would be awesome as an understudy.

Wait...is this the squinty-eyed, scratchy-sounding Gottfried I'm thinking about?

I love Gottfried's voice.  As much as I like Blum, I would be okay with it.

It would be strange though.

I don't get the Gottfried love...I didn't even know he did voice work, let alone any that would be up the alley of Blum/TOM.

Oh yeah, he's done that kind of work before. He was Iago in Aladdan, and I think did some voice work n some PBS shows. 

 

But him? As TOM? Instead of my beautiful, sexy Steve? No...just no.

I think it would be kinda funny if he ended up playing a minor character in the Toonami universe (maybe an enemy in a TIE), but T.O.M., the star? Hell to tha naw!
Durarara!! [as] Video Discussion going on right NOW in the Durarara!! Folder!

This Saturday, TOONAMI begins on a discordant note once again with Bleach stuck in Filler Hell with Episode 299 at midnight, but then after that, it's Naruto uncut Episode 27 "Special Report: Live From the Forest of Death" at 12:30. Then, it's Toonami's newest addition One Piece at 1 with Episode 208 and Soul Eater follows that at 1:30 with Episode 14 "Super Written Exam - Heart-pounding, Reeling, and Restless...?quot; Next is IGPX Episode 5 "Come Together" and Eureka 7 follows that at 2:30 with Episode 39 "Join The Future." ThunderCats is still roaring at 3 with Episode 7 "Legacy", then Sym-Bionic Titan plays "The Ballad of Scary Mary", Episode 11 &at 3:30; FMA: Brotherhood continues Season 2 with Episode 28 "Father" at 4 AM, and Cowboy Bebop reprises with "Ballad of Fallen Angels" Episode 5 at 4:30. Finally, if you stay up until 5 AM you're in for a treat: the "Fateful Night in Togenkyo" arc, Episodes 57 & 58 of premiere uncut InuYasha!

I haven't heard the guy's voice work, but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say my previous suggestions would all be better: Kevin Conroy, Lex Lang, and the guy who voices Master Chief. And of course Sonny Strait would warrant some consideration.

I like him as Iago but as TOM that would be kinda weird.....I'd say if Steve had a sick day we should bring out TOM 1 and get Sonny Strait to fill in lol

Oh god, I laughed so, so hard. Gottfried is my favorite comedian so I was easily able to recollect his voice.

As long as we would get a new looking T.O.M, I don't think his voice would mach our bulk Blum T.O.M.

I think that is a funny, but terrible idea.

 

Could you imagine them cutting to TOM and then Gilberts voice going: "Toonami's Back Bitches!"

 

It'd be epic in a suprising kind of way, and in a Gilbert kind of way, but I don't think he'd fit at all for story arcs, game reviews, and bumps.

I would like to know why Gottfried would strike someone as a viable TOM VA in the first place.

Pardon my language, but...

 

fuuuuuudge no. 

 

His voice is annoying and probably will turn off a lot of watchers. What the hell have you been smoking?

Absolutely, but Tom would need to make jokes about Japanese suffering...
