#only idiots moms and young kids like crisp ratt anymore

[zelda-pairings]

I'm kinda surprised no one is really mentioning how Keegan Michael Key didn't do a typical Toad voice for the new Mario movie trailer. Everyone talks about how Chris Pratt didn't even try, and how amazing Jack Black is, but no one has really brought up Toad.

Toad being high pitched and scratchy is funny as a joke, but I'm glad that it's looking like that won't be the case, at least for the main Toad.

Though seriously....if Jack brought the attitude for Bowser, and Keegan masked his voice enough I had to Google his role, Chris could do an accent, or Illumination should have listened to feedback (from all sources, not just focus groups, cuz very few people like Chris anymore) and given the role to anyone else. An actual voice actor, or a celebrity that does voice work (Nick Offerman, anyone?), if Charles couldn't do it for whatever reason.
