I love how Frank Welker's Oswald says "I'm no detective" because if you don't know, Frank also voiced both Scoob and Fred in Scooby-Dooby-Doo!😅

Agreed, Frank Welker has the most perfect voice for Oswald

@kiayaplews8593 3 года назад

This only furthers Walt Disney's claim that, to him, Mickey Mouse is a symbol of independence... after losing Oswald to Universal and creating Mickey as a mascot for his own studio, Walt gave HIS OWN VOICE (mainly the head-voice version) to the mouse for the remainder of his life, and his workers kept their good boss's spirit alive by finding Mickey several sound-alike voices up to date. Universal Studios, on the other hand, didn't care as much about quality at the time... they just wanted to get a quick buck on the tightest budget possible, which not only caused Oswald to lose his charm, but go through various "voice cracks" due to constantly changing voice actors, though on the plus side these voices throughout history were practically an experiment to find the lucky rabbit's signature sound. I don't know who would do the voice of this lost-and-found character after Frank Welker, but I believe what he's done is perfect... that almost teenage pitch with an adult's weathered tone is THE voice for Oswald, especially when compared to Mickey's high-pitched "squeaky" vocals with a speech pattern that hints that he's trying a little too hard to be the straight man. It is the perfect contrast!

So his voice was just sort of all over the place depending on the actor?? I’ll officially go with Frank Welker’s version then... most consistent. His Fred creeps in on Oswald’s voice a little though.

@stephenholloway6893 3 года назад

While it's an shame that we may never know who else voiced Oswald in the Lantz era, their contributions to the character can't be ignored. That said, Frank Wekler June Foray, and Mel Blanc are probably the best voices of Oswald along with Mickey Rooney and Pinto Colvig.

@Tozzywozzy01 3 года назад

It's amazing how many variants he went through, and especially odd knowing Mickey Rooney voiced him. The only one I think is possibly missing is the Disneyland 'Oh My Ortensia' performance, which apparently he was voiced by Jess Harnell.

Expect after 1942 they were records or video games. Oswald hasn't stared in an animated short since the Golden Age.

@krmiistudios2479 3 года назад

back than cartoons had no dialogue so that they were more plot driven for audience and because it was more easier and faster, but when time went on they started to think more about giving Voicing to characters but non of them had any Trademark voice until the mid 1930s.
