Here in Germany it happenes that when you watch a movie someone goes "I know that voice!" because some actors get the same guy who synchronises them...

and once again I noticed how badly chosen those voices are.

I was watching "The wind that shakes the barley" today and I watched it with friends, so I had to watch it in German for the first time. I almost puked...

Cillian Murphy had the same voice as...Leonardo DiCaprio. Yep.
And Nicholas Brendon in "Buffy - The Vampire Slayer", James Van Der Beek in "Dawsons Creek", Sean Gunn in "Gilmore Girls", Jason Behr in "Roswell" and so on...

I didn't know if I should laugh or cry, I mean really! Can't they do nothing right?

The best example for synchronising gone wrong is Santiago Ziesmer. When he synchronises "Spongebob" everything is fine, but David Thewlis in "The Big Lebowski"???

Here is Ziesmers site, if you are interested in who else he spoke:

Another Cillian synchronisation gone wrong:

Batman Begins:
Same voice as Kuririn "Dragon Ball", Guybrush Threepwood in "The Curse of Monkey Island" (Video game), Cosmo in "Fairy Odd Parents".
