    "Yes, always" has got to be one of the best Pinky and the Brain shorts for this joke, alone. Maurice's Orson Wells is pretty spot on, too.

      He sounds more like Vincent Price pretending to be Welles, but it’s still fantastic.

    Do we enjoy Maurice LaMarche as Orson Wells? YES ALWAYS! ;-D

    To be honest, I think Maurice sounds more like Vincent Price when doing his Orson Welles impression, and Kelsey Grammer sounds like Orson Welles just by speaking.

    God I wish Maurice would do the Paul Masson commercial outtakes.

      At least on The Critic he did the Blotto Bros Wine commercial. "sensibly priced at a dollar a jug. and now for a little magic, I shall make this wine disappear. (glug glug glug)"

      Put "Drunk Orson Welles impression" into CZcams. Maurice did the champagne commercial, and revealed he was the one who originally released the original footage.

    I've studied the frozen peas audio backwards and forwards myself (without needing to rewind) and LaMarche is almost completely spot on. Some of the inflections are off and a word or two is out of place but it's an absolutely amazing amount of recall.

      Although he did miss my favourite line "we're talking about them growing and she's already picked 'em"

    • @Levitz9
      @Levitz9 Před 3 měsíci

      The way they bowdlerized the "show me a way to start a sentence with 'in July' and I'll go down on you" with "I'll make cheese for you" was genius

    I remember when I first saw this on Animaniacs as a kid, I was so confused and had no idea why Brain was doing a commercial for frozen peas. It wasn't until I was an adult that I learned about the Orson Welles thing.

    I remember that episode of Pinky and the Brain, but I only found out yesterday it was based on a real incident. All I need now is Maurice LaMarche reenacting Welles's drunken champagne commercial as the Brain. I'll...make cheese for him.

  • @RARufus

    Maurice captures the sheer pomposity of Orsen, the inflections, the cadence. Brilliant!!

  • @MrPjw5
    @MrPjw5 Před 4 lety +16

    What’s even funnier than the Frozen Peas transcript is the background behind it. Long story short, Welles tricked the directors into paying him in advance and had them chase him all over Europe because he was pissed that they asked him to audition for the role.

    It wasn't a hissy fit. It WAS bad writing. If anything he was being generally patient with the clods.

    • @rustyjones7908

  • @JacobMKeeneAKADrPepperKing
    @JacobMKeeneAKADrPepperKing Před 10 lety +8

    It seems to me that whenever I hear Maurice LaMarche's Orson Welles impression, all I think of is that I sounds more like Vincent Price, and when he used for Brain in Pinky and the Brain, is sounded more like one of Maurice's original voices, but it's still enjoyable.

    • @JacobMKeeneAKADrPepperKing
      @JacobMKeeneAKADrPepperKing Před 10 lety

      ***** Really? Okay then.

    • @DrStrangefate
      @DrStrangefate Před 10 lety +3

      Well it's meant to sound like a younger Orson Welles.

    • @JacobMKeeneAKADrPepperKing
      @JacobMKeeneAKADrPepperKing Před 10 lety +2

      AJ Miller I kinda thought of that, I'm probably more used to the older-sounding Orson Welles then.

    • @DrStrangefate
      @DrStrangefate Před 10 lety +3

      Jacob M. Keene Yeah I thought the same thing when I heard this impression for the first time in the Animaniacs skit. When Orson did the commercial recordings he was just older. But Maurice's impression is spot on for young Citizen Kane-era Orson.

    • @JacobMKeeneAKADrPepperKing
      @JacobMKeeneAKADrPepperKing Před 10 lety +2

      AJ Miller And it makes sense he dubbed over Vincent D'Onofrio as Orson Welles in "Ed Wood (I never actually saw the movie, just a clip of it)!"

    LaMarche's Orson Welles impression is lazy. He can do it well, but he doesn't add the bass to it. Orson wasn't a light baritone, he was a famous bass voice. LaMarche sounds like Peter Lorre. A very good Peter Lorre, but not Orson.
