@@enigma1326 I have JUST WATCHED Twisted and was so bummed about no one ever mentioning the "no matter what happens, you will always be a prince to me" line. Like, wtf, it's so cute????
No one's gonna talk about how crazy his range is? The notes he hits in dream a little harder are crazy high! and the ones in Gaston are crazy low. And that's just vocal range. He's also hilarious and an awesome dancer. this guy is such a triple threat.
This guy NEEDS a main role! That’s all we want. We want Robert in the main role. Honestly his guy is so dang talented! Also “those are stretch marks, they happen” is so underrated.
I wouldn't say they're overrated that much, when I watched that musical for the first time Showstopping number was definitely the thing I remembered the most and that made me realize that yes, this musical is truly going to become yet another iconic piece of art from starkid
Prince Achmed's guard is my favorite because he started the whole Tiger F*cker trend. And I'm pretty sure that he was the one who said the Ja-far joke.😂
There are 3 things the world will remember Starkid and their fandom by: - A Very Potter Musical - the laziness song from Firebringer - Professor Hidgens' iconic hips And I'm honestly very happy with this legacy.
I feel like the Starkid fandom has descended into a full-blown Robert Manion cult which is extremely iconic but also slightly unsettling 😂 (also great video 10/10)
i mean he clearly appreciates it, i saw a post where someone said 'guys remember there are other people in starkid that deserve appreciation' and rob just commented 'no, only love for me thanks, everyone needs to know ive become an egodriven maniac' and i stan it
Oh no I think we separated into different cults depending on certain actors/actresses, and then we’re all just like “your cult is valid but I mean mine??? 10/10”
Ok I have a quick story about how iconic he is to me: So when I watched Twisted I loved the Gaston part and it struck me SO MUCH for whatever reason, that I literally unintentionally memorized it (after watching it once) and little phrases in everyday life reminded me of that monologue. THEN TGWDLM came and I was SHOOK because omg it was HIM, GASTON the guy who was in my head for YEARS from that ONE performance and he is literally an icon and I love him so much
I’m sorry but the image of someone watching TGWDLM and hysterically pointing to Professor Hidgens and screaming “IT’S HIM! THE GASTON GUY!” is making me laugh too loud
I don't know if its just me but when Robert is Hidgens he looks older? But when he's doing working boys he looks younger. Maybe its the way he carries himself.
i noticed that too! i didnt realise that hot chocolate boy and hidgens were the same guy for an embarrassing amount of time. all his characters look so distinct from each other but its so subtle?? how does he do it
It's such a shame how things turned out with Robert, he's so talented and charismatic he could've easily led the next generation of Starkids as the OGs start taking more backstage roles
Came down here to comment that you forget Snarls left paw. Guess someone beat me to it. Oof. But funny story, I texted my friend like three days ago that Roberts best roll was Snarls left paw and she responded with “Honestly. Top ten anime left paws. Robert wins the Oscar.” And I’ve never laughed so hard in my life.
Twisted is so underrated! It’s so good and Starkid worked so hard on it, but no one says when asked their favourite Starkid show, “Twisted”! Preposterous!!
robert’s facial expressions in golden rule are literally the best thing ever. the switch to a smile on the sound cue 1:56-1:57 is my FAVORITE!!! then his lil smile at 2:03 :’))))))
@@hot_woody he sent unwanted explicit messages to a starkid member that was not comfortable at all with it, and I think he was also transphobic too (or at least didn’t understand it)
I so feel you, dude. I get it--things had to change but he was in the group so long, and so beloved. It STINGS knowing he won't be in any more productions because of sad reasons.
4:21 Fun fact this is how I remembered the Spanish word encontrar. Which means “to find” I always thought of Robert shouting AU CONTRAIRE. And than thought of his line “all I wanted was to FIND her.” (Now thinking back on it I’m pretty sure he said save but whatevs it helped me pass my Spanish exam.)
1:25 NOOO LISTEN TO HOW SAD EVERYONE IS, POOR POOR ABDUL Edit: also 2:30 is one of my favorite things he's done, his "our many woes" gives me chills for some reason

He hit that perfectly

Benjamin Wambeke AND his American accent is good as fuck too!
This guy NEEDS a main role! That’s all we want. We want Robert in the main role. Honestly his guy is so dang talented! Also “those are stretch marks, they happen” is so underrated.
If Robert and Brendon Urie do a collab together, it would be the most awesome and iconic thing ever!
Hailey Miller I don't think he's the lead but he's definitely one of the main characters
Benjamin Wambeke and now I’m pregnant
Now I real why “Beauty and the Beast” live action wasn’t good, it’s because Robert Manion didn’t play Gaston.
Sierra P it’s the same reason why live action “Aladdin” wasn’t good due to the fact that Joe Walker wasn’t Prince Achmed
TheTheatreQueen huh I guess they didn’t remember Achmed (or maybe they did I didn’t watch it)
@@grass4655 Pretty sure his name wasn't even Achmed, his name was Prince Anders or some shite

Yeah me too
Kas snarl’s left paw was too powerful, including even .01% of it would probably destroy the universe
pas x ahhh I love you! And honestly yeah that’s about right, we aren’t ready for snarls left paw.
Don’t forget “guy who brings in the magic carpet making wooshy sounds”
Prince Achmed's guard is my favorite because he started the whole Tiger F*cker trend. And I'm pretty sure that he was the one who said the Ja-far joke.😂
Also "whatever happens, you will always be a prince to me" :')
ALL HAIL ACHMED THE TIGER FUCKER
YES soldier 3 is a legend
I thought Jim did the Ja-Far joke?
Veronica Elders he was! It was "jafar?" "Jafar...." "Ja-FAR!"
There are 3 things the world will remember Starkid and their fandom by:
- A Very Potter Musical
- the laziness song from Firebringer
- Professor Hidgens' iconic hips
And I'm honestly very happy with this legacy.
I’m happy with 2 of these things
_Exscuse me?_ The laziness song?!
ITS I DONT WANNA DO THE WORK TODAY!!!
but they sure won’t remember Achmed
Even my friends so don’t watch Starkid know I don’t Really Wanna do the Work Today
@Si Ariele Honestly, I don't care what brought people into the fandom, because what matters is we all love Starkid :)

okay but you didn't include the clip of him jumping up from the dead just because they had to get him off the stage
I love your photo and name omg
Honestly I was wishing someone was gonna drag him out
I was hoping he would act like a zombie
I don't know if its just me but when Robert is Hidgens he looks older? But when he's doing working boys he looks younger. Maybe its the way he carries himself.
Brandi Lechelle it’s the hips
i noticed that too! i didnt realise that hot chocolate boy and hidgens were the same guy for an embarrassing amount of time. all his characters look so distinct from each other but its so subtle?? how does he do it
I think the shift in his voice in workin bois helps.
Same with him as the police officer I didn't realize it was him till recently
I think it's the hair
kind of sad that “My skin is melting!” wasn’t included
I LOVED that line. 😂
Which show was this?
@@AnimeLover930 As the soldier in Twisted
No one remembers my skin is melting
I would’ve added the roles of Magic Carpet (Twisted) and Left Paw of Snarl (FireBringer)....that was him............right??
He wasn’t the magic carpet!
He was the wind!
Left paw is the new left shark
We need to update it to add ethan too
@@pippadee8266 yess!!
His part in the "Dream A Little Harder" deserves higher spot. He stole the show at this point.
More like he stopped the show get it because show stopping number
The thing is I actually have low blood sugar so that would actually me...
“Those are stretch marks they happen..”
*"AU CONTRAIRE"* is honestly one of his most iconic lines
Robert Manion's Gaston is **so** good
YES
His role as the carpet bringer in twisted was the most powerful role in the worlds history closely folliwed by snarls left paw
abdul is a Soft Boi
idk why i even watch these videos anymore because i *know*
Abdul and Soldier 3 will always be my favorites
Also seeing all his roles side by side showcases how much variety he has as an actor
Is it bad I know all the choreography of showing stopping number just by watching it so much.....
I know all of it too (whether or not I can do it without looking like an idiot is a whole other story)
Same tbh whatta mood
No me too
okay legit tho his vibrato gives me

what an absolute icon!
we need justice for snarl's left paw
starkid actors really out here being hollywood material w that incredible range. looking at you too jeff blim
you know he’s iconic when the bread boy is in last place
I actually adore him as the bread seller I think his acting is crazy good
this list very much agrees with me
Twisted is so underrated! It’s so good and Starkid worked so hard on it, but no one says when asked their favourite Starkid show, “Twisted”! Preposterous!!
honestly, I watched it for the first time yesterday and I think its amazing, its tied at first with black Friday for me
the amount of talent in one human being is overwhelming.
Born too late to explore the earth
Born to early to explore the galaxy
But born at the right time to know Robert Manion exists aswell
You can’t tell me Police Officer #2 wasn’t THE most iconic character with his “WEEEEWOOOOOOs”
This makes me very happy
I forgot how funny the moment when Professer Hidgens throws the Alexa was
best quality: his wiggles
When i saw what was #5 then 8 realised what I was up against
I literally didn't know he was Australian. His American accent is flawless
Robert Manion is impossible to typecast. He just has such crazy range

This is serious Snarl’s Left Paw erasure...it deserves number one
"You'll always be a prince to me" - Solider#3 literally he became my favorite actor. in the universe right then and there
when he starts singing working boys his voice goes up and it amazes me
4:16 that note though😂
offended at the lack of Henry
I think Snarls Left Paw and Magic Carpet Placement deserve some honorable mentions here😂💛
the cut from "I DID NOT FUCK A TIGER!" *silence* to "he fucked a tiger~" is comedic gold
HIS DANCING IN ALL OF THESE IS ON POINT AND SO GRACEFUL
It took me so long to realise the professor and the customer who’s blood sugar was low were the same people. He’s such an amazing actor 🖤
Rob is amazing at dancing, Jesus, he’s SLAYING.
after watching this, you just get that every starkid moment is iconic
When police officer is 5th you know how iconic this man is
*It's hard to believe that all of Rob Manion's characters are played by the same person*
His Gaston is so unique and impressive
literally no words to describe the amazing entrance, pain, maners, sesuality and look a like of his
Your lack of inclusion of the "NO NOT MY TUMMY" bit is saddening
Random citizen will forever be my favorite role of his
4:21
Fun fact this is how I remembered the Spanish word encontrar. Which means “to find” I always thought of Robert shouting AU CONTRAIRE. And than thought of his line “all I wanted was to FIND her.” (Now thinking back on it I’m pretty sure he said save but whatevs it helped me pass my Spanish exam.)
If we don’t ever get Robert playing Gaston in an actual performance of BATB I will be disappointed because he’d be great for it!
Excuse me, but
