Does Alan Tudyk Know Lines From His Most Famous Movies & TV Shows? 

I was waiting for any line from firefly. But to be honest I thought it was going to be the leaf on the wind quote.

​@@zSpirallThat's exactly what I was expecting, too.

@@zSpirall I was expecting, "I am a leaf on the wind. Watch how I--"

i was waiting for : "Im a leaf on the wind"

I thought of "curse your sudden, but inevitable betrayal!!" ... Also no Steve the Pirate :( "gyarghhh"

Same. Dude's got charm few actors have.

That man deserves an Oscar he is way too underrated I’m hoping his voice pops up on season 2 of Andor

Alan Tudyk IS a national treasure.

I don't often watch ALL of these actor career recap videos, but I also sat and smiled the whole time.

Jesus, I’m glad to see this comment. I came here to say something similar. Ever since I saw him as Wash in Firefly back in the day, I’ve had a lot of love for this man.

Sadly, that could be said of the Fox network, too. _Many_ a good show aired on Fox, which got the axe, all because of poorly accumulated viewer metrics (curse you, Neilson Ratings!) that I don't feel ever properly conveyed actual viewer numbers. I guess that's one other positive to the streaming era... cold, hard, indisputable numbers. So let there NEVER be another _Firefly_ type situation, *ever* again! [/micro-rant] 😅

I know 😔

For real! I had no idea that he voiced all those characters.

Does lots of robots. Sure he was danger boat on the tick as well

I had no idea he voiced Joker in Harley Quinn

I was today years old when I found out he was the robot in I-Robot

YUP

Just be glad they didn't use his signature line from 42

Same! I wanted to hear him say, "College kids!" and "We've had a doozy of a day."😒

Me too. And no Steve the Pirate??

No Dodgeball or Death at a Funeral either :(

I was half expecting Hei Hei from Moana.

Genuinely, me too!

When it's voiceover and you can't see him, I don't feel bad about not catching it, but I love Tudyk, I love knights tale, I had no idea until today that was him, and that's live action! It just speaks to how versatile he is as an actor!

@@wilfdarr I think i found that out last year for randomly searching that and looking at the cast and beeing huh, thats Tudyk, I didnt know. Also didnt catch his friend was Robert Baratheon.

This is true but the supportive cast was amazing! I just remember being so annoyed when they'd cut away to the Jocelyn scenes 🙄 (could she have been more wooden??)

I loathed anachronism is historically set movies until that movie.

​@@pampire13 I think it is because for most historical films any anachronisms are essentially because of the laziness of the filmmakers. On the DVD the Director in the commentary made the point that the anachronisms in A Knight's Tale actually serve an artistic purpose. The best example is the banquet scene where they are learning the dance. Medieval music to our modern ears sounds somewhat simple and, for lack of a better term, sedate. To medieval ears that music was "modern music". So the dance scene starts with pure medieval music and over the course of the dance David Bowie is slowly mixed in to the music. By the end of the scene they are dancing to David Bowie at full levels.

​@@susie9893In fairness to the actress who played Jocelyn, that was literally her first acting job. She was a DJ in LA and met the producer at a party she worked. The rest as they say, is history 😂

One of our top favorite movies ! In fact, one of our top favorite anything 😊

Facts.

true

Perhaps one can be too talented. I can never pick his voice characters until the credits because they are such a complete departure from each other. 👍👍

Agree 100%

Honestly, nah, because if everybody knew about him and how amazing he was they'd ruin it. Lmfao js. 😂😂😂

In addition to that a lot of those voices are so different from each other, they don't even sound like him most of the time. Unless I know that it's him doing a characters voice beforehand I usually don't even realize it was him until I'm watching the credits.

Out of curiosity, I went to his Wiki page... and whoo boy 🤣🤣 A character name in a Web series called "TableTop": Doctor McLickhertitty

Beautiful words❤️ so true❤️

100%. When you go to a Samuel L Jackson movie you know what you're getting: it's a fun character but it's the same character every time. With Alan Tudyak you don't even realize that character you love was him until you see the credits!

@@wilfdarr I learned today that he was so many characters I love. Its mindblowing.

Yesssss!!! It made my heart so happy when he started being a guest on “The Rookie” back with captain Mal, it gives me the warm fuzzies 🥰

100% yes and 100% sadness that they didn't pick the line "I am a leaf on the wind, watch how I soar." 😭 shut up, I'm not crying, your crying! 😭

"Wait! Where's Wash?" "He ain't comin'!" 😢😢😢😢😢

I knew this comment had to be somewhere... but to see it that high up, rly warms my heart @Miss_Camel Even tho he was 'season 1 Harry Vanderspeigle', in "The Rookie" xD Which kinda made it even better, in my opinion xP (I know it's not accurate, but it was my very first thought)

Absolutely!

“It’s called a laaaaaance! Helloooooo?!” 😂

@@PrincessMeggala0913I was hoping he would say that! But I guess it’s too easy!

Absolutely, smiled so big when he talked about the memory.

One of my favorites I wore that vhs tape out when I was younger lol

"Pain! Lots of pain! "

Like a leaf on the wind 🥺

His “I look like a Muppet” line in the outtakes should have been left in. (Stares at Frank Oz’s general direction.)

1,000% agreed, that was a golden line. To be a fly on the wall and see Frank's face 😂 I don't know if I've ever seen anyone else in the wild who knew about that bit from the director's commentary!

Oh, no.... Please!!! What have you ddddoonneee??!!!!..... Now I have to think of that scene the whole day!!! 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 I laughed sooo much, I literally fell of the couch and could breathe !!!! 😂 😂 😂 😂

"Everything is so GREEN!"

I LOVE THAT FILM. I recently even bought the dvd from ebay just because I wanted to be able to rewatch it whenever I want

For real! It was a good show but Alpha was just such a next level character, I was riveted every time he was on the screen.

" Carrots, medicinal carrots"

"I'm not bluffing! Well, I'm bluffing. But the rest of us!"

The mark of a true genius

Watch robin Williams doing voices. Alan tudyk probably idolized him like many others

Because he’s a great actor

Truth

Yup

Did you watch powerless? It was a short lived TV series starring tudyk as Bruce Wayne's cousin who worked for Wayne enterprises as a subsidiary company that designed equipment for everyday citizens to deal with the destruction left in the wake of superhero battles, like a joker antitoxin or a rubble umbrella which stops rubble from crushing you. It was a funny show. Ron Funches was in it, too.

@jkap34 thank you for the recommendation! I adore Ron Funchess!

Only downside is it might be hard to find. I don't think it's streaming anywhere

I feel that way about Jason Mamoa too. One minute he's this small time actor on Stargate Atlantis and then it feels like he's blown up and suddenly a household name.

YESSSSSSS

I mean, andy serkis said once that "gollum! Gollum!" was inspired by his cat throwing up a hairball. Everybody has tricks

Alan's character in Rogue One is the only post-Return of the Jedi star wars character I care about.

You should hear him voicing different characters from 'Star vs the Forces of Evil' the man is brilliant.

I thought so too! I was like...surely that dude is not still alive...but it was so spot on, I jept having doubts. Lol

They will!

@@everythingcollectibles if meth sales go well

He knew his own laugh was weird enough to associate it with harry 😂

​@@jibberjabberstepback612I'm doing my part. Just purchased half a K.

That teacher knew their shit

But that would've been Serenity instead of Firefly. So they could've 😀

My all time favourite line in Firefly is when Wash is comforting Kaylee in the wh**e house and he says “Were I unwed, I would take you in a manly fashion” 😅

​@@izazabelWash being a supportive friend 😊

@@izazabel this is my favorite non-leaf-on-the-wind Wash line from either the series or movie. What an oddly sweet thing, said in a hilariously inappropriate manner, yet in the exact right way for the recipient to be comforted by it

@@izazabel because I’m pretty? Yes because you’re pretty.

When he's excited he makes the Steve the Pirate noise

Aaarghhh

Yaughr...Pee-err!

He was AWESOME in Dodgeball....Pirate Guy🤣🤣🤣🤣🤌🏾🤌🏾

I still love the car wash scene "we only have that creepy old guy paying Justin to wash his rims" "Yeah... get in there nice and deep like" *fingers belly button*

I have that clip saved

@@corrynnewlan6418 that would make for a funny ring tone for your significant other. 🤣

This is some bullshit!

@@KatieSalleythis is probably one of the lines from this show my husband and I quote the most 🤣

It's great to know the creators appreciate him enough to let him ablib like that. I was so happy when I heard him discussing this series (while it was still in production he did a talk with Fillion). I remember thinking how relieved I was that hopefully he was starting to be valued for how great he is

He may have specified they were not to use that line. OR they may have decided that would be too contentious

I had same reaction when I learned he wasn't a Brit, but at least I'd made that assumption from seeing him a British film (Death At A Funeral)

He was a leaf on the wind.

@@BradyPostma, I have never been that broken hearted by a movie... *sniff, sniff

@@PepperDog76 - Well, don't watch _Grave of the Fireflies,_ then I hated that Wash died. But it's not the most heartbreaking thing I've seen in a movie.

How do Reavers clean their spears? They run them through the Wash!

@@Nightykk Too soon, too soon...😂

Tucker and dale vs evil is my comedy comfort movie 😂

Will not spoil it for those who haven't watched Serenity, but I saw no point in what happened after that line. Saw no point to the story at all. (you have to watch if you are curious and do not assume based on my ambiguous comment what the next scene was, you might just be wrong)

Not if she has good taste 😂

I do that with my adult kids. "OH MY GOSH, do you know who that is??" "Is it Alan Tudyk? 😑" "IT'S ALAN TUDYK!"

I love it when I fall in love with a character (he does such a good job of making them different) and sometimes it takes a beat for me to remember him as Wash (who will be near and dear to my heart forever).

I'm the same with my fiance, I point out Alan excitedly, and he just nods and smiles, confused, but he knows better than to ask questions 😂

These are the best comments I’ve seen, Alan Tudyk is a treasure.

There's a pirate in that movie?! 🤣 "Wait, there's a guy on our team that dresses like a pirate?" I love that movie! I was hoping it would be included, but this was still a great video!

Technically that's not the opening scene. It's the scene that really kicks it off but there was that whole background battle scene (that I found confusing af coming into it blind from Angel and Buffy)

almost made me cry!

Well... BECAUSE he's incredible ! You hear his character and not him

The memes about him at the time taking a sabbatical from Doom Patrol 😂

Awww i love so much that you named your car that! I have a tshirt with that line, and a couple little dinosaur charms on my keychain in its honor. ❤

I have the sticker on my computer. It was one of the best character intros I've ever seen, a guy playing with plastic dinos while sitting at the controls of a spaceship? Yep, this is a character I'll like.

You named your car?

Doesn't everyone?​@@earendilthemariner5546

@@earendilthemariner5546 Doesn't everyone?

You trying to jinx us honey? Too soon!

Thank you for mentioning alpha! If no one else had I was going to because he was brilliant in dollhouse

And Van Wayne from "Powerless." I didn't expect any quotes from "Powerless," but I was hoping...

Yes, I couldn't believe they repeated some characters but left out some of his best characters

Although I'd have preferred if they'd gone with "Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal" (Fox); or even, "somebody not madly in love with a woman who can kill me with her pinky"

I was having a good day. We were all having a good day

That's how reavers clean their spears. They run them through the Wash

@@ShammityShamSham ooohhhh groan ~~~~

❤😢❤😢❤

Now I'm sad

I _so_ wanted to hear him do a line as Gerhardt! I love that character.
