Couldn't they just use a wireless mic? Then he could sound much better. I get that he had to belt it out, but man, the voice is just terrible.XSTech said:I rewatched the movie last night (since I was jealous at not attending the new movie premiere at DL!) and noticed that half of Jack Sparrow's lines are said really quickly and quietly, often with a lot of slurring. You can't translate that into an in-park performer that has to be understandable in front of a crowd of 50-100 people. If he stood up there and sounded just like Johnny Depp in the movies, no one would have a clue what he was saying.
Yes, he could sound a little more like Jack Sparrow (the accent could be thicker), but not completely without making it weird.
Props to the guy for trying, though. I would imagine it has to be really hard to go out there when everyone is expecting an exact impersonation of the real thing.
