My favorite, although he is usually a support role, John Ratzenberger. His voice cracks me up. Star power is just that.
Mark Hamil does alot of voice work, He is a great voice actor, not whiney like Luke going into Toshi Station to pick up some power converters.
Here is a link for Mark.

Me too, Sull. And this has nothing to do with Dis/DW but the fact that we never learned why Mushu ever really got to care about Mulan or saving the Fa family or anything like that. He just acts the way the film instructs him to.
IMO Donkey's a much rounder (thematically complex) and more appealing character.

BTW about FOTP...I haven't spoken much about it since I quite unfortunatley never got to watch the darn thing , but I finally was able to watch the pilot episode..I thought it was great, very funny and just plain weird, maybe a little crazy but very well-written. Most sitcoms just put me to sleep, they're so incredibly fake with all their nudge-nudge wink/wink aren't we hilarious Jimmy Fallon/Tina Fey type humor that makes me want to hurt someone....I actually laughed through this thing.... Very rare for me....
The only problem I saw with this was the extremely wrongheaded marketing of it as a family comedy, which it is NOT, but a fun show for a mature audience.
The shallow and hypocritical reviewers who bashed this as innappropriate are the same exact people who raved about a repellent show like Wonder Showzen that exploits kids and has animation sequences of what are seriously the most disgusting and inhuman perversions you can imagine....compared to WS (and Adult Swim, and most prime-time shows nowadays) FOTP is positively Father Knows Best!!!
(BTW I'm not condemning anyone here who didn't care for it, it's your opinion and you have every right to it, I'm just condemning the critics who got on the DW bashing bandwagon as usual and trashed a show they probably barely watched at all....then used the excuse that it's "offensive", as if they actually would care if something was....)

You can’t just have your characters announce how they feel! That makes me feel angry!
