Believe it or not Ansem later tells Mickey that he was masking his grief for Riku (he was both touched and heartbroken over how far Riku went to save Sora) by laughing.
0:30 Only Christopher Lee can say the words Sea Salt Ice-Cream and still come off as unsettling. In fact, just make him say the word Fluffy and he’ll make it sound threatening. Not that it’s a bad thing, it just proves that Lee is an amazing actor with an amazing voice!
I'll be honest, while it stabs me through the heart that we will never hear Christopher Lee as Ansem the Wise again, I believe Corey Burton was the only man who could stand in perfectly for Lee. No one could replace Lee 100% but Burton has been known to commonly be referred as his stage double, just as Terrence Carson is for Samuel L Jackson. While not explored often, Ansem the Wise is one of my favorite characters. I love how Sora was able to change his mind about nobody's, and how he was willing to give up his life to make amends and stop his former student Xehanort. In my opinion he was able to redeem himself and through Sora's actions as well as his own all the chaos he unintentionally unleashed will be undone. Rest in Piece Christopher Lee you will be missed but never forgotten. :)
I mean, yeah, Christopher Lee was a great actor who definitely knew how to make Ansem the Wise seem like both a bad guy and a good guy. Which he was. But Lee's VOICE--just the voice itself! It's so perfect!!
First Chikao Ohtsuka, then Leonard Nimmoy and now Christopher Lee are gone. Looks like Kingdom Hearts is in mouring for loosing great talented villains! =(
"There is no knowledge that has the power to change your fate" " A nobody doesn't have the right to know. Nor does it even have the right to be." I know thoughs lines where mean but I just loved the way he said them.
He was so damn good. I wish he could’ve stayed in at least until Dream Drop Distance when he got that lovely speech about hearts. Corey is amazing though and carries on his wonderful legacy. RIP
What a true legend you are sir Christopher Lee you are the best voice actor of the world and a true friend to everyone May the force be with you my friend rest in peace
I've never actually played this series before but the fact that he had some roles in the 2nd game might encourage me to give them a try. Amazing voice,
Con la muerte de Sir Christopher Lee se fue alguien multifacético, artor, narrador, hasta metalero por excelencia, jamás olvidaré su rol en los álbumes de Rhapsody of Fire como narrador de la segunda saga de la historia. Sin dudas una gran perdida para el mundo artístico en general.
I remember when I was a kid and first saw the CoM cover art, I thought DiZ was going to be a villain and the leader of the Organization. He’s got a really interesting role.
True, but this wasn't the first time that he has been used to fill a role that Chris Lee has started. Christopher Lee actually commented his impersonation of him for a Count Dooku role.
That'd be awesome! Too bad we can't get Billy Zane back (even though I'm used to Epcar) or Nemoy (I heard he's not reprising) and may the VA's of Mickey and Jiminy rest in peace.
I'm going to guess that you and a lot of other people still can't take fair criticism. Anyways, I can judge Corey because a good part of his filmography is voicing old men.
DiZ is literally the worst character in all of Kingdom Hearts history (at least when in his DiZ form) because he's a completely abusive jack### to Roxas for literally no reason other than "wanting revenge on Xehanort" Seriously, HOW IS ABUSING ROXAS AND MAKING HIS FRIENDS THINK HE'S STUPID going to help him get back at Xehanort?
R.I.P Sir Christopher Lee
He'll be remember that.
He is deeply missed
I love how he laughs when Riku says he's Ansem, just that laugh, he honestly does sound like he finds it hilarious.
Believe it or not Ansem later tells Mickey that he was masking his grief for Riku (he was both touched and heartbroken over how far Riku went to save Sora) by laughing.
@@michaelkarimian7538 That's one of the most disturbing parts of the game, IMO. I think it's a pretty cool part.

Packs the golden gun aswell

wolfan20 True, RIP Christopher Lee though
lmao

that fucking voice, jesus.
Rest In Peace, Sir Christopher Frank Carandini Lee. (27 May 1922 - & 7 June 2015). You will be missed, not forgotten.
King Mickey: Tell me... friend. When did Ansem the Wise abbandon reason for madness?

I wonder why they couldn't get Samuel L Jackson back for the Clone Wars show but Mcgruder was able to get him to be on the Boondocks.

I just have this playing in the background, because his voice is so damn badass.

R.I.P Sir Christopher Lee. You will always be the Ansem The Wise! We will never forget you!
Preach!
Rest in peace Sir Christopher Lee. You will be sorely missed. My thoughts go out to his family.
I'm glad they didn't give him any ridiculous dialogue like some of the other characters in the game, Christopher Lee is a genius. R.I.P
Aboriginal TruthTeller there was plenty. I'm an idiot for having my opinion? alright then?
No you're correct a lot of characters has ridiculous dialogue, especially more so in 2
Knowing Christopher Lee, I'm sure he could have turned them into the most eloquent lines no matter how ridiculous they sound
@@cfcblue8 "We can always buy some sea salt ice cream" (said in a very menacing manner).
I can't believe he's gone. I mean living to be 93.
His voice was epic holy
r.i.p christopher lee, a true legend.
First Chikao Ohtsuka, then Leonard Nimmoy and now Christopher Lee are gone. Looks like Kingdom Hearts is in mouring for loosing great talented villains! =(
don't worry lee's impressionist has worked on most kh games, could you tell?
+Jesse McClure It's not nearly the same, though. Can't beat the original. :/
+Aysha Wattellier Ansem the Wise wasn't a villain but you're right
+Jesse McClure You mean Corey Burton? I think he did a decent job as Count Dooku and Hugo Strange.
Tom Brearley-Smith yes.
"There is no knowledge that has the power to change your fate" " A nobody doesn't have the right to know. Nor does it even have the right to be." I know thoughs lines where mean but I just loved the way he said them.
Rest in peace Ansem.... :'(
Rest in Peace, old man
R.I.P. Christopher Lee. Even though Burton took over long time ago, he now has bigger shoes to fill.
i love his laugh burst out to "fake" Ansem 😍
Rest In Peace, a true legend indeed.
It was a great honour to have been able to hear Sir Christopher Lee's voice .. 😊
I miss him so much .... 😞😢😭
I miss this voice so much - what an actor, what a man - R.I.P Sir Christopher Lee, you gave us so much
RIP Christopher… Tks for Everything. T_T
He was so damn good. I wish he could’ve stayed in at least until Dream Drop Distance when he got that lovely speech about hearts. Corey is amazing though and carries on his wonderful legacy. RIP
Does anyone else notice the resemblance between ansem and Luxord?
Ansem's younger distant off the charts by part law relation cousin. Hmmm I guess that's why he takes after gambling for most of his enjoyment.
RIP Christopher Lee
What a true legend you are sir Christopher Lee you are the best voice actor of the world and a true friend to everyone May the force be with you my friend rest in peace

Good bye Mr. Lee you were a legend
Sir Christopher...
RIP Christopher Lee, I wish I knew ye.
Christopher lee was one of my favorite actors
I've heard that he had a really busy production schedule around this time so he had to do a lot of these in one take. Stellar job if true!
Must buy this game. Sir Christopher Lee sounds just so awesome.
R.I.P
What a great performance. RIP to a legend.
Rip Christopher Lee
Happy birthday, Christopher Lee.
Hopefully one day we see these legends again.
Oh shit! A Sith Lord!
Christopher lee is marvellous,
rest in peace Christopher Lee
You are a servant of the world and I (a tool) praise you
No dislikes, I'm very proud. Miss you Sir Christopher Lee.
6:41 my favorite quote from Ansem
He's a very busy actor, even at his age.
this has been on repeat ever since i found out about the sad news.. :'[
Corey Burton is a great decendent of Christopher Lee because he sounds just about the same as the original.
"King Mickey, my friend... forgive me... farewell!"
I can't believe they got this guy!
Having DiZ played by Sarumon just makes this voice more awesome.
This is why KH sold. Because the writing charm and interactions. Bonus voice acting. Now it's just anime and interaction are flat and bare.
Thats why i said i think i havent heard from him in a while course i havent done research on him i hope he has another 20 years.
I like the way he pronounces his R's.
Looks like Christopher Lee's coming back for Dream Drop Distance
That laugh when Riku says he is Ansem.
Imagine if all of his initial KH2 dialogue had been with Billy Zane 🤣
That's what's on IMDB, however it may be a placeholder
DAT LAUGH
True, but this wasn't the first time that he has been used to fill a role that Chris Lee has started. Christopher Lee actually commented his impersonation of him for a Count Dooku role.
He's old, man, he can't keep doing these things forever.
@PTp1ranha I didn't intentionally leave them out, I didn't find them and he has so many lines that I didn't remember that he had even more.
Tell the truth, Christopher Lee did a great job and a much better job on lending his deep strong voice as Diz/Ansem the Wise than Corey Burton.
I think he passed away he was born in 1922.
That's a lot of years
@@jumperthehedgehog2932 Indeed, he was a cool actor. I posted this nine years ago as well.
That'd be awesome! Too bad we can't get Billy Zane back (even though I'm used to Epcar) or Nemoy (I heard he's not reprising) and may the VA's of Mickey and Jiminy rest in peace.
I agree with you; Corey Burton is a good voice actor, but I feel that Christopher is better suited for Ansem the wise aka Diz.
Gracias
How could you fudge up that information? He is still very much alive.
Hey, it's true. And besides, Corey is well-known for voicing old men.
Saruman
Christopher lee should stayed as diz/ansem
Still, they didn't have use Corey Burton.
be honest, what would you do if you heard that voice in your house?
If Ansem the wise is in kh3 nobody can voice act so good as Christopher lee
You're right, but it's still a shame...
It's a real shame, I kinda think he was just in it when he needs money
Sucks that he didn't reprise his role in 3D. WTF.
I'm going to guess that you and a lot of other people still can't take fair criticism. Anyways, I can judge Corey because a good part of his filmography is voicing old men.
DiZ is literally the worst character in all of Kingdom Hearts history (at least when in his DiZ form) because he's a completely abusive jack### to Roxas for literally no reason other than "wanting revenge on Xehanort" Seriously, HOW IS ABUSING ROXAS AND MAKING HIS FRIENDS THINK HE'S STUPID going to help him get back at Xehanort?
Why couldn't he voice Ansem in Birth by Sleep? Corey Burton is terrible at impersonating Christopher Lee.
R.I.P. Sir Christopher Lee
RIP Christopher Lee
