Patrick Warburton In Soarin'
Some might know him as David Puddy , others as Joe Swanson , but Disney fans roll in the hay him for two prominent roles , Yzma ’s lackey Kronk , and our in - flight scout on Soarin ' atEpcot . While other theme park rides might offer a standard intercom voice for their safety instruction , Disney give us the deep tonicity of Patrick Warburton .
Surprisingly , Warburton ’s role as the guide has become somewhat of an easter egg to the hardcore rooter . Honestly , we ’d be consist if we said his calm and confident deliverance did n’t put us in the humor to take a scenic flight around the mankind for some reason .
Judi Dench In Spaceship Earth
There have been a few different celebrity to narrate the iconic Spaceship Earth at Epcot , including people like Jeremy Irons and even Walter Cronkite . But we have to let in the attraction ’s current storyteller on today ’s listing , Dame Judi Dench . Who better to narrate the highlights of human history than M from the Secret Intelligence Service ?
Dench ’s performance , much like the previously mentioned Patrick Warburton ’s , is one many Disney fans look forward to get whenever they get on the attraction . If you acknowledge how to interpret your ABC ’s , thank the Phonecians . If you ’ve go through Spaceship Earth ’s history example , thank Judi Dench .
Paul Reubens In Star Tours/Oga’s Cantina
To some , he ’ll always be Pee - Wee Herman . Not to us Disney fans , however . To us , Paul Reubens will always be Captain Rex of the original Star Tours . Since the Hollywood Studios drive has since go under renovation and been given some new droids in the cockpit , RX-24 has been reassigned to Oga ’s Cantina as the Modern DJ in Galaxy ’s Edge .
Does anyone else smell charred circuit ? Though he ’s no longer on the flight pack of cards or going lightspeed to Endor , Rex seems perfectly happy drop sweet sci - fi beats while node have some refreshments at Oga ’s Cantina .
Martin Short In O' Canada
Our next renown takes us back to Epcot , this time for a rattling film presented in circle - vision about our neighbor to the north , Canada . And though we do n’t have the musical voice of Celine Dion to serenade us , we do have the delightful amusing stylings of Martin Short to give us a tour .
Accompanied by Short ’s performance , we see beautiful projections of some of the most iconic places and structures in Canada . From Vancouver Island to the bustling metropolis of Montreal , this is a great room to introduce Epcot guests to the land ’s most attractive features .
Michael Jackson In Captain EO
Though supervene upon by the Disney / Pixar Short Film Festival , dead on target Epcot fans will always remember Michael Jackson as Captain EO in the attractor of the same name . The music - video - base attraction was a collaboration between Michael Jackson , George Lucas , and Francis Ford Coppola that gave us some sweet ' 80s kitsch that wo n’t shortly be blank out .
Essentially , Michael Jackson leads a ragtag chemical group of space explorers against an evil empress played by Angelica Houston . They defeat her robot regular army through the king of dance and music and everyone goes home happy . It ’s not exactly Spaceship Earth , but it ’s still a fun fade of sci - fi high mallow .
Aerosmith In Rockin' Rollercoaster
And now we take you from the King of Pop to some classic rock with Aerosmith ’s Rockin ' Rollercoaster . It would have been so easy just to have a rollercoaster with an Aerosmith soundtrack or imagery , but since when does Disney ever go midway in their parks ? This ride does n’t just boast Aerosmith , it stars them .
As shameful as it might sound , many rollercoasters have a plot , and Rockin ' Rollercoaster involves Aerosmith give their fans some backstage exit and a drive in supercharged limousine . It ’s a prime experience for fans of the illustrious band or those who just want to rock out .
Eric Idle In Journey Into Imagination
When he ’s not singing " Always Look on the Bright Side of Life " with the cast of Monty Python , he ’s hang out with a certain empurpled dragon at the famous Epcot Imagination Institute . Eric Idle run diametric Figment in Journey Into Imagination as Dr. Nigel Channing , head of Imagination Research in this wonderfully capricious drive .
Seeing Idle get flustered and pestered by Figments imaginative antics is always a highlighting for any trip-up to Epcot , and it ’s some of the silliest work the actor has ever done . Though some might miss the original reading of the ride , we ca n’t deny a little Eric Idle goes a farsighted way .
Vincent Price In Phantom Manor
If you ’ve ever been to Disneyland Paris , you ’ve no doubt seen that they havetheir own variant of the Haunted Mansion . You also experience that this version is far more scare than silliness and what better mode to reiterate that fact than feature the Master of Horror himself , Vincent Price .
Price not only provided the original narration for the attraction , but his Thriller - inspired yakety-yak was used for the villainous Ravenswood Phantom . With the attraction ’s later renovation , Price ’s functioning has retrovert once more to haunt the halls of the manor house for a new generation of foolish mortal .
Johnny Depp In Pirates Of The Carribean
No , we ’re not talking about that one time he suddenly appeared in the draw , we ’re babble about Depp doing the voice piece of work for the animatronic of Captain Jack Sparrow himself . Since the illustrious film franchise commence so popular , Disney had to give the ride that revolutionize it a makeover to tie in with the picture show .
Depp is n’t the only character player make an appearing either . Ian McShane , Bill Nighy , and Geoffrey Rush all make appearance as their swashbuckling personas in different edition of the drive . numb men might tell no tales , but these actors help get the adventure to life .
Robin Williams In The Timekeeper
A rope - vision draw hosted by a robotic Robin Williams ? Yes , please ! This retired Disney attracter is The Timekeeper , a time - traveling trip through the ages and to various landmarks , landscapes , and upshot in history , admit the 1900 World ’s Fair . It was a nifty little attractive feature that featured some retro - sci - fi charm and is one of the late comedian ’s most underappreciated performances .
Heavily inspired by the kit and caboodle of Jules Verne and H.G. Wells , this stumble through the eras was astoundingly immersive and brilliantly performed by all involved , but it ’s Robin William ’s role as the timepiece himself that earns it high-pitched honors on our list .
