Poll: Would you mind someone Narrating your life?

[Smiley Face]

Only if it's Liam Neeson, or Morgan Freeman. Since honestly those are pretty much the only choices I believe are correct But I'll go with Neeson over Freeman

I concur. I would also add Jeremy Irons and Stephen Fry to the short list, but Liam Neeson would win.

Besides the entertainment value, having narration would probably be pretty handy, help me pick up on missed social cues, whatnot. Also, since I have an instinct for picking up voices, I'd slowly take on some of the traits, which would be awesome.

On one hand, it might be neat/fun to have the guy from Bastion narrating my life....

But on the other it would get REALLY intrusive.

"Guy's gotten caught in the net. He ain't getting no work done today, and he knows he's screwed"

"Guy's looking at stuff he shouldn't be. He's hopin' no one's watchin'"

"Guy's stalling on his stats homework. Heh, may as well be tryin' to break a break wall with his hands"

"Guy's just sittin' there, waitin'. He wonders why takin' a dump's gotta take so long"

....Yeah, that would get annoying if it was going on all the time.

Not to mention I wouldn't want to hear him commenting on me with my girlfriend. Not only would it be distracting, but it would kill the mood and just be all around creepy. Hell no.

It's tempting. My life would be much less boring if I heard Morgan Freeman talking all the time, but it would definitely get irritating when I was doing mundane things I hated, like say, homework, or work-work. I say no. However, if I can get a soundtrack, totally different

 

[Racecar1994]

As long as he/she was suitably funny, then I'm game for that.

I'd just want my privacy for some days... when it might be a problem...

 

[Souplex]

Can other people hear the narration?

 

[ABLb0y]

Liam Neeson or Tim Curry. Hells yeah.

 

[Aetera]

If I get Deadpool to narrate my life, do I also get little yellow thought bubbles? Because that would make me the HAPPIEST PERSON IN THE WORLD.

This has to happen.

You have the luxury of being able to "tune" people into your narration if you feel like it. But there are good reasons for not doing so.

 

[Etherian87]

Patrick Stewart.
that is all.

 

[Chairman Miaow]

Another thread where the poll question is the exact opposite of the title question. Would people please stop doing that? And of course I wouldn't want a narrator, it would just be too creepy.

 

[Furbyz]

For shame Escapist. For shame! Nobody thinks of Malcolm McDowell? Really?

At least one of you wanted Jeremy Irons.

Really I'd probably go with Grey DeLisle though. The woman is amazing.

 

[Wereduck]

A hammy Russ Meyer / Ed Wood type narrator might be amusing, then again it might make my life a living hell.
Far safer to go with one of the other options above: Rickman, Freeman, Clarkson, Nimoy would all be awesome.

EDIT: Laura Bailey - oh yes.

Once the narration starts, can I ever stop it?

 

[Kungfu_Teddybear]

Only if it was Stephen Fry, Alan Rickman or Morgan Freeman.

 

[ImmortalDrifter]

Morgan Freeman.

This thread is over.

 

[Davey Woo]

I wouldn't want a narrator, some things just shouldn't be narrated, like trips to the toilet, for example.

 

[Canadamus Prime]

Only if I got to have the narrator from DragonBall Z.

"Will he finally get off his ass and have a shower? Will he finally be able to find a job?
Find out on the next (not so) exciting episode of Matt's life ZEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!"

 

[Something Amyss]

I already narrate for myself, but it'd be cool to take a break. It's annoying describing the brushing of my teeth while brushing my teeth. And my sexual partners think I'm crazy.

Nope. It never stops. The only escape you can get from it is when you sleep. Depending upon who's voicing the narration, getting to sleep could either be easy or difficult.

 

[Shoggoth2588]

QUESTION! Am I the only person who hears the narration or, is it broadcast around me for people to hear if they're too close? If I'm the only one who hears the narration than I'm going to chose YES and my pick for the narrator will be Jeremy Irons.
