I think John Leguizamo is great in the Ice Age films.

It doesn’t matter whether you’re seeing the real actor or just hearing the real thing, what matters is if the performance is worthy. I think that Eddie Murphy should’ve easily got in for his hilarious performance in the first Shrek movie in 2001.

And let’s not forget good old Gaston. No one sings like Gaston…

Also three guys from The Jungle Book did amazing work: Phil Harris as Baloo, Louis Prima as King Louie, and Sterling Holloway as Kaa the snake. While I’m at it I’ll also throw in Jimmy Stewart from An American Tail: Fievel Goes West, Betty Lou Gerson as Cruella De Vil, and Charles Fleischer as Roger Rabbit as excellent voice over performances.

In terms of regular voice acting, Robbie Benson’s multi-layered work in Beauty and the Beast is just too powerful of a vocal performance for me to ignore. He could have easily replaced Warren Beatty’s embarassingly bad performance in Bugsy as a nominee for 1991 Best Actor. Williams in Aladdin is very comendable too, though 1992 Supporting Actor WAS a very strong lineup.

I’d have definitely nominated her. I was also a big fan of Peter O’Toole’s work in “Ratatouille.” Any serious voice-over performer will tell you that it is still a performance just as it were on camera, so it should certainly receive some kind of recognition, in my opinion.
