This is SO FARKING LAME that it's hard to fathom.
The beauty of casting for a VOICE ACTING role is that you get to choose the best actor for the job. _________________ DBCooperVO.com

I seem to recall there was quite a kerfuffle about Starbuck being a woman in the "new" Battlestar Galactica. The fans who whined about it got over it soon enough. _________________ Lee Gordon, O.A.V.
