      No wonder video game voice acting is such an easy job for Charles and Samantha! They don't have to talk in full sentences, because those would be really hard on Samantha doing a high-pitched voice and Charles keeping up his Italian accents. December 20, 2019, 3:27am

      The only thing that irks me about the book the original version is that they voice each other's characters instead of their own. They have that Danny guy doing Mario and that Lou guy doing Luigi. That Lou guy was supposed to be Mario not Luigi and that Danny guy was supposed to be Luigi so they messed it up big time. But that Danny guy makes a better Mario I think. He makes a better Mario than lu is what I'm saying. Charles makes a better Mario than any of them. He actually is mario.

That's so awesome! My favorite line that he says is when he reads that he ran out of fresh mushrooms. " Hello! Quote that is epic! I was kind of questioning that too just like Mario was. Cuz to me the way he said that said, " I never said that. "

He's also like 67 years old, so it might be a strain on his voice. Not saying that Chris Pratt was an amazing voice, but an hour of full sentences for both brothers sounds like it could be a strain on his voice.

      @@muguiwaranoboy2542 but in a story book audio the narrator is always speaking in a calm tone unless they’re imitating a person’s voice as described in the book. In a movie it’s different since there’s visuals they gotta match their expression and voices with at the same time. It is different.
