Okay, that might be branding I'd go to see. ;)
They could redo Universe of Energy with Stephen Colbert and name it..."Universe of Colbert"!
That'd be quite an improvement over what's there now. :D

Oh, I would LOVE to have Stephen Colbert do it. He and Jon Stewart should collaborate and split up portions of the ride they will cover.

SSE is meant to be taken seriously I think putting a comedian as the narrator would defeat the purpuse (altough it might be a riot to hear Robin Williams take a stab at it once)

Anyways while I will always prefer Croncite and Irons over Dench I still thought she did a good job.

I like the idea of Morgan Freeman he has a good voice or maybe Gene Hackman.

How about Allen Alda? He's got a great voice. He can also be comedic and serious.

Some comedians can be taken seriously. Jim Carrey would be great just because I love him in Eternal Sunshine for the Spotless Mind.

I was watching mid 90s videos from EPCOT, and realized he was EVERYWHERE back then. Bring him back in more capacity!

And I saw that he was still around late last year when my friend and I found out he had a TV show on some Going Green channel.

Ah yes, I heard that he was too. I kept meaning to watch it but I forget so easily. I miss watching his show back in elementary school.

Agreed, some can. Again, I would love for Robin to do it if he did it straight. The only time I can tolerate Jim Carey is when he is serious...I think he is much better at drama than slapstick. He'd be great...good idea.

Now those are wonderful choices. I think they should all split up certain parts of the ride for them to cover just so we can get to listen to all of their voices.
