OK last weekend I was watching Star-trek. Ummmm I think it was the finale frontier. Anyways it was the one where in the beging Spocks half brother goes to Nimbus III. He takes those three people hostage, in paradice city. Listen the the guy that resides there for the federation, he sounds just like him. Found this kind of weird.

What's he called? David Warner or something? Wasn't he in Tron?

David Warner has been around the sci-fi programs. He's been in Babylon 5, and I know he's played a Romulan starship captain in Star Trek who faced off with Picard.

He has a distinctive voice

David Warner was also The Evil One in Time Bandits, but he's actually an extremely talented Shakespearean actor. He's a client of a friend of mine, an agent on the US west coast. She says he bemoans the fact that he can't get a job doing classical theater, and has to do cheap sci-fi to keep body and soul together.

Fable,

that's a cool connection. David Warner has been one of my favorite actors since I saw Tron and time bandits as a kid. He is fantastic; that's terrible he can't find the work he's looking for. If it's any consolation, he's the ultimate in the cheesy second rate sci-fi 'B' movie which sadly happens to be my favorite genre.

To continue rambling, Baldur's gate II became an instant success for me as soon as I heard him speak in the prison.

Thanks for the name I did not have a clue what it was. Yes his voice is very distinctive voice.

Speaking of which, he was also in Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes. As an ape

No way, which ape was he?

He wasn't that nerdy orangutan was he, the one that autioned off aspirin to the kids? That one walked a fine line between comic relief and Jar Jar Binks.
