How much of Katy Perry is Katy Perry's experience? Do you know how Lady Gaga started out? Like this
But the point is still made. There are very, very good singers who are very good in what they do. And that subjective 'it' factor is missing in someone's eyes and is already there in others. Katy Perry does nothing for me. Lady Gaga does nothing for me. I, to this day, do not understand why Drum and Bass didn't take off in the United States. That genre, again to me, has everything that sounds good in the world. But it's subjective.
The difference between a good singer and a major singer is backing. Rolling in the Deep has had so many covers, I don't know if I can count them all.
This one, in my opinion, puts Adele to shame. Yet Adele has a Billion views on that damn single. And I really don't know why.
Again, this is a subjective matter. You considering it undesirable doesn't make it de facto undesirable to all. There are people who did it because they just wanted a job, and there are people who did it because it excited him. Look up Guy Cihi and any of his interviews. Or hell,
here you go. He is having the time of his life. He still talks about how it impacted to him to this day. And this was his one role. You're going to tell me it was undesirable to him?
If you noticed, I didn't finish the thought. In the middle of explaining the flaw in the logic, I thought it was worthless and I abandoned it. But the save feature of the forums saved it when I accidently clicked off of the thought.
But since you saw and answered, I want you to understand that very flaw in the logic that you have such an issue with is the exact same flaw in logic I see you
make here.
Who cares what the percentage of the population is broken up to whatever fractions if we're supposedly just looking for the best actors? That doesn't enter into the conversation. This is a spurious argument to justify something. In every High school, there was one child who was a better actor than all the others. Do we chalk it up to where he or she was raised? What english teachers taught them? Do we question their diction, their poise, their breeding, their body size? No. We say that person is a talent. And if we want to be colorblind as you continually purport to want to be, then we're looking at the caliber of the performances and then
measuring it against one or two or even ten people in casting.
How the hell can anyone reasonably suggest that 10 people know what everyone would consider the best voice acting for a certain character? Again, no one thought anyone could be a better Kratos than TC Carson, until Christopher Judge came along. And that doesn't mean he would have been the best voice for Kratos either. But if the casting directors have a limited view point, the best selection of that limited viewpoint does not denote the end-all, be-all in casting. The Best Kratos that would ever do it could be right now a Samoan that no one is looking at.
So to me, stating the percentage of white people in this nation is just as short sighted as stating because blacks are rare in this country, their voices are more unique therefore valuable. If I finished the thought instead of abandoning it, you would have saw me say that was just as asinine in my head than "because there are so many more whites, there has to be so many more better actors".
Talk to an actor. It's a perfect balance of natural skill, talent, and insane preparation.
And I said Warner Bros. Merrie Melodies. Looney Tunes. During the age of Block Booking, they were making substantial money selling their cartoons as a unit.
