Voice Acting with Charles Martinet: Voice of Mario 

The day this man dies, The world will start to cry

So many voice actors are so different from their characters. But Charles Martinet exemplifies the same boundless optimism and joy that Mario does, it's amazing! He's the real life Mario. What an amazing man! I love you Charles for bringing so much joy to my childhood! :-)

There are certain people who should live forever Charles is at the top of this list.

"I was going to be an attorney" Super Mario Ace Attorney.

everyone's-a number one

if we had a good Mario film I would want Charles to voice him.

Omg this guy is so energetic! xD

Charles Martinet is one of the most talented voice actors ever imo. I've been playing Mario games for a very long time, and I've always loved Mario's voice. Heck, I even say some Mario lines to myself just because I like them so much. I wish I could meet Charles Martinet in real life, he seems like such a nice person :)

Charles Martinet shall NEVER DIE! He's the only true voice of Mario, Luigi, Wario, and Waluigi.

“Never make comedy hurtful. Always make it fun, always bring the comedy back to the character” Favorite quote

My one real wish is to get to meet and get a Mario poster signed by Charles Martinet because he got me through a tough day. Just being in a sad mood and then Mario ground pounds my frown upside down and have a great time. If Charles Martinet is reading this. Thank you from my bottom of my heart.

I got the great pleasure of meeting Charles a couple hours before this. He was just the nicest guy. I got to shake his hand twice, I got pictures with him, and I got my Super Mario Maker 3DS case autographed. I couldn't make it to the panel because my feet got tired, but it was just the greatest experience.

So much happiness, joy, and kindness in one person. It is unbelievable, such an awesome guy

Bring him back next year!!!!!

Damn it, now I'm 40 minutes late for school.

I wish I could've watched something like this when I was younger. I probably would've made different, more enabling choices in my life.

That’s our voice actor

I had the pleasure in meeting Charles Martinet this past Saturday at Comic Con, He was a Very nice and intent on listening to me Very easy too talk and carry a a conversation with It was a Amazing experience meeting the man responsible for the uncountable amount of laughs and fun times and good vibes and happiness that i received through his Voice Career I REALLY REALLY hope he comes back to LEX CON and i can only imagine how he must feel making millions of people Smile and laugh everyday

I hope one day the audition tape of Charles surfaces! I would LOVE to see it!

The Mr. Rogers of voice acting.

This man is our childhood we must protect him

omg this guy is so positive. he really is the real life Mario

This guy is so charismatic and a great storyteller.

When charles mentioned that fans make games successful, it kinda reminded me how the entire mother series is being held by it's fans now.

what if he is actually crazy and do this voices all the time and can't stop, it would be awesome if he is sleeping and suddenly he did a quiet ......."uhu"....."mama...."

This is so beautiful to see and watch. Martinet's personal philosophy shines through in everything he does - even in just embodying other characters in his life through silly voices. He's a wonderful human being, who happens to also have one of the best jobs in the world.

Man, Charles Martinet is the most happy guy i've ever seen in my life! This guy is a hero

love Mario's raspy voice LOL

Who knew that an old guy would be the voice of Mario? No offense Charles, you ain't that old if you've been the voice of Mario for that long! ;)

He remind so much of Robin Williams

I’m gonna be sad when Charles passes away😥 I’ve always loved Mario since I was 4 and I’ve always loved it and played the games since. And Charles seems to be a very joyful person and he brings joy to other people, he’s a very kind person. I would be upset if he passes. He’s very talented too, he can change his voices so quick and you can’t tell if he messed up.

wow i need to meet him

I loved watching this video because in the video, Charles Martinet always reminds me to appreciate everything that you do and have fun with it. He taught me how to stay positive throughout every tough time that you face in your life. We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting something we don't have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have. I just want to say, thank you, Mr. Martinet, for inspiring me to have more fun with what I have and do in my life! I truly wish that I can meet you someday! :)

OMG, I luv that guy! Way to go, video game hero!!!!!!!!! 😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃

Wow I just watched all of that. Charles Martinet is truely an inspirational and incredible man.

Who knew Charles had such great life advice? What an awesome guy. He really is Mario :)

Charles... Ily man. Keep on being the man you are. It's wonderful and so wholesome💕 if he were to quit or sadly pass... Man my life would be so devastating. And i don't even kno the man but he and the mario games have brought that joy from my childhood to now. No one can ever take his place man...

I believe Mario got shaped by Charles and not the other way ;)

I would love to meet this guy. He's my hero!

This man is a national treasure and must be protected at all costs.

He makes me happy. :)

Hearing Charles speak as Charles reminds me a lot of Robin Williams without twenty digressions in a sentence.

Hes 64 years old now :D

He makes me wanna really get into voice acting and he makes me just want to make cartoons n stuff! He's so inspiring, optimistic, and oh so sweet! He just makes your spirit lift each time he speaks, he makes you feel like a kid again when he does his voices, and if he were read stories: I'm sure you would believe that he's those Character in the story! Goodness, I love this man! ❤️❤️

This man makes me so happy.

Happy birthday Mario, Luigi, Wario, Waluigi and Gouji Rokkaku.

How could you even dislike this video

love it

Ouaou that video is a hapiness therapy.

Yahooo

Correction: You have everything in common with yourself.

I love Charles so much that he inspired me to make my own mario Character 😍😍

Wait wait wait hold on, Lexington KY?

“Yahoo!” (Smack) “Doh!” “WoaaahOOOOOOWWwww”

the legend himself

So, just recently, I applied for a job as a writer at an indie video game studio. (Haven't heard anything back, so I probably didn't get hired.) After I sent off my résumé, I was horrified to find that I had forgotten to edit one section. When I was formatting the template for the résumé, I ended up with one weirdly-sized square of empty space, and so I wrote a funny little haiku in that space, just as a placeholder. I wondered if that reflected badly on me. But you know what? Hearing Charles talk about trying something because it's fun, and because it feels right, rather than because something is what's expected... that's made me feel better about it. In fact, I might even consider keeping that haiku there for future applications. I don't think it displays a lack of professionalism if you show that you also want to have fun. It worked for Charles Martinet, at least.

God this guy is my inspiration

Thank you RU-vid recommendations for this rush of dopamine

WAIT WHAT HE WAS IN LEXINGTON?! IM LIKE 2 HOURS AWAY FROM THERE!

This man is hilarious 🤣

We need a potion of living forever bc we need this man in our lives.

I wish he was my grandfather, I never met neither of mine because one died before I was born and the other did something unforgivable that I’d rather not talk about. For that same reason I never met him either and I grew up with only both of my grandmas, it would be amazing to have Charles as my grandfather because he would’ve made me feel happy during difficult times.

Him and Sean would get along nicely lol they keep talking and talking and talking 😂😂
