So took my niece to see Happy Feet 2, Turns out Gabe Newell voices a killer whale
60 replies, posted
So anyway like the title implies I took my niece to see that animated penguin movie, I admit I was interested because of Hank Azaria and Robin Williams. It wasn't a bad film but I got bored fast until I heard a voice of a killer whale speaking, it was a short scene but I knew the voice and flipped the fuck out of the cinema with my eyes going wide as hell, It sounded like fucking Gabe Newell....and it was!
The credits have him listed as minor characters and Killer whale but I wasn't convinced yet so after dropping her off and before going for another night of gaming I looked up every source I can find.
Elijah Wood as Mumble
Robin Williams as Ramon/Lovelace
Pink as Gloria
Hank Azaria as The Mighty Sven
Brad Pitt as Will the Krill
Matt Damon as Bill the Krill
Ava Acres as Erik
Meibh Campbell as Boadica
Lil P-Nut as Atticus
Carlos Alazraqui as Nestor
Johnny A. Sanchez as Lombardo
Lombardo Boyar as Raul
Jeffrey Garcia as Rinaldo
Magda Szubanski as Miss Viola
Sofía Vergara as Carmen
Anthony LaPaglia as Alpha Skua
Michael Cornacchia as Frankie
Danny Mann as Dino and Brokebeak
Gabe Newell as Killer Whale
Hugo Weaving as Noah the Elder
Richard Carter as Bryan The Beach Master, an Elephant Seal
Common as Seymour
Elizabeth Daily provides the singing voices for Erik and Boadica
I don't know if it's just another actor named Gabe Newell but...a killer whale :v:
Gabe is such a fucking champ.
"hey gabe want to be in our movie"
"yes I do"
"we want you to be a whale is that a problem"
"uhh no"
Video please.
I want to hear my Gabey Gabe's luscious voice.

I'm not sure if it's the Gabe Newell or someone named Gabe Newell

Decide for yourself, I currently don't have access to the actual credits.
Uh, that sounds like a poor Arnold Schwarzenegger impersonator.

New Years resolve? Find out the Truth of Gabe Newell?
The user who added Gabe Newell to the credits list twice was warned for vandalizing the page and the change was undone before. I'm sorry.

Yeah it seems all the good actors are wasting their time voice acting just so the animated flick gets publicity. Why don't they just leave it to the real voice actors?
GUYS ITS A NEW ARG! START DECODING THE MOVIE!

Still says Gabe Newell.
You know, if gabe newell actually voiced a character, wouldnt more than just a wikipedia page know?
Like I am sure they would put it in ads or SOMETHING.
[URL="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1402488/fullcredits#cast"]IMDB[/URL] says nothing about Gabe Newell being a voice actor in Happy Feet 2.
[editline]00[/editline]
A quick google search also shows this thread and the wikipedia page are the only mention of such.

Gabe's not exactly a famous actor. They probably wouldn't mention him, since the targets of the ads (little kids and their parent's) probably wouldn't know who he was.
I suppose we'll probably know soon, considering that he'll most likely respond to the various emails from you guys asking him.
Common and Gabe Newell in the same movie?
My life is complete.
[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Happy_Feet_Two]Wikipedia says its the same guy.[/url]
Wikipedia, this thread, and some warez site are the only ones that say anything about Gabe Newell. The warez site probably isn't reliable since they probably copy pasted from wikipedia anyways.
So unless someone wants to go see the movie, write down the credits, and confirm or debunk this, we will have to wait for dvd release.
Or assume wikipedia vandalism, which actually seems quite likely.
