Why give big stars animated characters to voice? I feel like I’m much more likely to enjoy and get wrapped up in a story if I’m not clearly hearing someone I know’s voice. I just hear that actor in the booth at that point. All the great animated movies didn’t lean on big names, but let the character have their own voice that we don’t have to disassociate from someone else for the first 20 min of the film.
