Disgusting. Jim Cummings is one of the very few people left like Frank Welker who actually knows how to act voices unlike these untalented B list actors they use 1000 times like Dwayne, Zendaya and Pedro Pascal. Cummings should’ve been recognized for his talents, he’s done more for Disney over the years than any of those other actors.
The hatred and stoopidity of Disney knows no bounds. Despite them re fusing to recognize him he’ll always be tops with me with Mel Blanc, Don Messick, Casey Kasem, Frank Welker, Peter Cullen, Joan Gerber and many others. R.I.P the wonderful years of real voice actors!! 💔
It’s Disney so what did you expect. Of course they wouldn’t honor him just because of a few possible rumors about him yet I have a sneaking suspicion that it was for political reasons they didn’t honor him which makes me even more disgusted with Disney.
I know every single one of those actors listed by portapal. Not personally mind you but definitely their works. Idk if Frank Welker ever got publicly awarded either but in my mind he is crowned king of voice acting with Mel Blanc alongside him. These days when people do voices they only sound like themselves for every character. Frank Welker was born gifted to be a voice actor and not only did Jim Cummings voice in Lion King but so did Frank Welker you just don’t hear about it enough. Welker did the roars of the lions as well as the other animal sounds and grunts by use of a metal trash can. He did the scream for Spock in one of the Star Trek movies. He did countless other cartoon characters including Transformers, Scooby-Doo and other Hannah Barbara shows. He made a personal appearance with Don Knotts in How to Frame a Figg.
I never knew Cummings took over for Irons during the Be Prepared song until this year when I read it on YouTube. Their voices sounded so similar it was never really caught.
It’s truly sad that Disney didn’t recognize him.
However, we true fans of voice actors can still honor and appreciate these talented men and women in our hearts. They will be forever etched into our childhood memories and thanks to DVDs we can still enjoy their countless roles.
