I like to think that his Sora voice is his normal voice but he's doing it untentualy.

[@cinemaipswich4636]

In A.I. Haley Joel Osment does a heart- breaking scene when he is abandoned by his mother. It is a master work for such a young boy, and Haley was the perfect choice for this role. John William's music is wonderful in this movie. RIP Stanley Kubrick.

[@christiannielsen3863]

Agree. Like Asa Butterfield's finale scene of Ender's Game, Elijah wood in The war, Christian Bale in Empire of the sun. Amazing performances.

[@arbsan8366]

That scene always makes me cry. Gosh I feel so bad for him at that part🥺

[@TheMia8686]

I cried so hard when he was abandoned. I just watched the movie recently. Loved his performance in there. Very talented and hope to see more from him.

[@DeadRaymanWalking]

So true. My father saw that movie in the theater when it came out, and it made him sad since his mother (aka my paternal grandmother) passed away that year. I had first learned of Haley in Thunder Alley as Harry (who was Gil's youngest grandkid). Now we've got this fine fellow as Sora in Kingdom Hearts.

[@hippiecheezburger5457]

Spielberg got so many shots of him in the movie where he looks so innocent and his eyes just told such a story, a once in a lifetime performance honestly. He was one of the greatest child actors

[@hippiecheezburger5457]

I honestly think he was a phenomenal child actor, he was very talented in the films he got

[@doobernow]

I totally agree... and the fact his parents kept him grounded and able to still be a kid is just amazing.

[@nepntzerZer]

He's not that good now though.

[@callmebigpapa]

@@nepntzerZer Everything I have seen him in as an adult he has been great

[@hippiecheezburger5457]

The way he played David in A.I. he made him totally robotic but the looks in his eyes throughout the film are something to behold, it was so moving. The Sixth Sense was very Oscar worthy both as a movie and his role

[@thruthemotions]

Couldn't agree more. And he was a professional for that age too. If I saw my daughter or son in 'AI' or 'Sixth Sense' I would be traumatized. Even though it's just acting. Joel played in some horrific scenes as a child.😅😭

[@ZetsuboXIII]

Haley Joel osment : my favorite role is KINGDOM HEARTS FANS : *stands up * Haley Joel osment: A.I KINGDOM HEARTS Fans : *die inside *

[@JessPeachee]

None of the voice actors talk much about their roles in KH sadly...Like I love Willa Holland in Arrow but she is AWESOME as Aqua and my heart burst going to a Jesse McCartney concert but it was because he voiced Roxas and Ven!

[@RenZvers3]

A.I. Artificial Intelligence is definitely his best role ....i fucking love that movie, i still cry after watching

[@johnmc3862]

Agreed

[@r.i.p.volodya]

I don't think that there's ever been a better child actor than Haley Joel Osment!

[@nh-wq6sw]

Sora isnt his favorite role, its our favorite role lol

[@ePai9e]

honestly, I figured he just didn't mention it because it was probably assumed he was asking about film

[@Neatrior]

I mean like if he were to mention it, he could casually slide it in alongside of naming his favorite acting role. But the actual film actors who do games are a small minority, and is considered sub par compared to movie acting in the industry for some reason. But honestly I’ve played tons of games which have great if not better acting than most modern movies. So, meh I guess.

[@appylee9942]

He was my favorite child actor. A.I. is one of my favorite 3 movies. He was wonderful in it. Every time I have seen it, I sobbed for David.

[@JohnBradford14]

I searched "Haley Joel Osment Sora" and got excited when I saw the title of this video. Needless to say, I'm disappointed in KZbin's algorithm.

[@elilockie715]

Same

[@DreamerTrain]

its cause everybody is talking about Sora but don't let that distract you from the fact that Yen Sid backwards is Disney

[@roedalacket]

Bro, you should thank KZbin for letting you know about A.I. I'm guessing you haven't seen it... since you thought he would pick a video game character as his favorite character. As funny as that is.

[@JohnBradford14]

@@roedalacket I have seen A.I. and I don't see why it's unreasonable for him to select a video game character he's been playing for nearly two decades as his favorite.

[@roedalacket]

@@JohnBradford14 He's an Oscar nominated movie actor that has achieved a certain level of prestige in the industry (having starred in several great films). It's almost the same as presuming Mark Hamill would choose Wing Commander as his greatest role, instead of Luke Skywalker. I've never even heard about the game you are referencing. But looking at the comments to this video, it's obviously popular with the younger crowd.

[@Gonza_DF]

Vanitas talking about acting and dubing...

[@tctyt]

A. I. is a Wonderful and Depressing Dystopian Existential Odyssey. I cried at the end. I know its one of the beautiful movies than you can watch it once. It still hits hard today, Kudos to you and Spielberg, that movie was Ahead of its time!

[@thecedex]

He was also great in Silicon Valley

[@killerband155]

Your favorite role is Sora, just say it!!!!

[@patrickpettyjr.3134]

You're so cool for knowing that, baby~

[@miraocelot]

Let's be honest, even if it was, do you really think that on a show like this it'd be proper for him to talk about when they're asking about him as an actor, not a voice actor.

[@patrickpettyjr.3134]

Samantha Soland Sure, why not? It's one of his most popular roles. His voice is the reason a lot of people even bother looking him up. If it weren't for 'Kingdom Hearts,' I would've never known about Haley Joel Osment, to be honest.

[@miraocelot]

Maybe so, but it's a manner of knowing when to speak of such things and catering to the audience who is watching you. If you go onto Oprah and start talking about playing Club Penguin do you think the audience of middle aged women are going to find you interesting or want to be there? Nope. That's all I'm saying. And I know Haley Joel from the 6th Sense which is where he ACTUALLY became famous. If it wasn't for his role then no one would have known of him and he wouldn't have gotten the KH job.

[@miraocelot]

Not to mention I would imagine being able to make a movie with STEVEN SPIELBURG a hella more interesting and fun than sitting in a booth acting like a kid flailing a key.

[@vuxdinh]

Haley was a gifted child actor. Everyone knows and admires his role in The Sixth Sense but if you watch him in A.I. which he mentioned in this video and also Secondhand Lions which is my personal favorite of his, you would understand what an amazing young actor he was. He acted those roles not only with the innocence of a kid but also with intensity and depth of a veteran adult actor. He made every role believable which sounds mundane but it is very difficult given the unusual nature of his roles: a kid who can see ghost, a child android looking for his mom and a young neglected teenage who lived with two eccentric uncles. He actually reminds me of his co-star, Tom Hanks who can do it all.

[@MFTKR]

Came here to say secondhand lions is great movie

[@CNWhatImSaiyan]

A.I. will never not be one of my favorite movies. I watched it in theaters with my dad when I was six and I’ve watched it two more times in my life since. I don’t want that magic to fade away too fast...

[@AppleliciousStory]

I LOVE A.I. His acting was phenomenal

[@daseal1479]

I love KH, but A.I. is also an incredible movie.

[@overtherenowaitthere]

it's an incredible piece of film i agree, too bad it kinda falls about about 2/3rds of the way through haha

[@nessg1043]

I like to think this what a fully adult sora would sound like. :) I mean if we ever gonna see him grow up that is, instead of him being a teenager.

[@quinnhouk5369]

Neri 2D he does

[@axceljulio5747]

Probably sounding like Vanitas but less sinister.

[@Dead_Hitori]

Can't watch A.I its the only movie in the world that can make me cry, but the movie itself is a masterpiece

[@ashuraahunter]

If you only cry at AI then you clearly haven't watched Schindler's List, I was a fucking baby at the end

[@pinga858]

His acting in AI is absolutely incredible.

[@reitzcollings1024]

It was an incredible movie yet haunting. It evokes so many emotions.

[@Puppy_Puppington]

I just tortured myself by rewatching A.I. Damn it... when I was 5 years old in 2001 I got fucking insanely heartbroken by this movie & for weeks I just cried at night worried my mom wouldn’t wake up. It taught me to appreciate those we love so much more. I’m gonna watch ET now just cause I’m in a Spielberg roll & then imma rewatch the 6th sense to have a laugh when I see Haley Joel on WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS.

[@ReptilianTeaDrinker]

Can I just say? His hair is fantabulous!

[@lennycarl0099]

AI is so incredibly underrated, glad Haley called that one out!

[@xaulted1]

Likely the absolute best child actor to ever grace the screen. He was just right, in everything. We may never see another pre-teen flawless character actor like him again for many an age.

[@NoneShallDefyMe]

He straight up turned into Al from Home Improvement lmao

[@HyuugaCharlie]

I don't think so, Tim....

He ate at my table in my restaurant 2 weeks ago and he was extremely kind..so was his sister and mother. And not pretentious at all and a very good tipper :) he did not want attention brought to him or his family so I kept the vultures at bay. I actually had no clue who he was until my coworkers freaked out because they recognized his sister from hannah Montana as lily her best friend

[@FreakyWingedAngel]

May I be the first to say LUCKY!!!!! That's awesome!

[@GreysonRuday-zy7ss]

The first thing I remember seeing him in was that episode of Walker Texas Ranger back in ‘97

[@chriscannon8144]

They grow up so fast, either that or time flies these past couple of years. I was 6 during Kingdom Hearts, now 21.

[@codypeck8932]

Same here.

[@michaelmyersplays4992]

In 28 now lol what you know about kingdom hearts

[@isaackellogg3493]

Stan Winston’s effects are so good-even the cgi-because he started in the all-practical-effects era, and (with Jurassic Park) mixed practical with cgi before moving onto full cgi. This gives him an appreciation for how physical objects move through space, which makes him able to make cgi that real. It doesn’t matter if you can render individual raindrops and eyelashes, if your dinosaurs feel like they weigh three grams each. Heavy things are heavy, so they should move heavy, carry heavy, and hit heavy. Oliphaunts who move like Legolas are impressive from a techbro point of view, but it destroys suspension of disbelief. Stan Winston’s creatures feel so real you forget you’re watching a movie.

[@marikitliwayway6703]

I lost my mother and the film AI perfectly captured that feeling of loss so yes it was his best role PERIODT!

[@ManusiaKagakRusuh]

Osment: Do you think I like voice acting a game character ? ...

What’s crazy is this man has no idea how much his work has touched me. I think he might be 2-3 years older than I am but AI is one of my top five movies of all time! I’ve left comments all over youtube about it!lol Definitely my all time tear jerker film. I was ten when I went to see it and it left an undeniable mark on me as a human and how I think about humanity. Also, his voice over work as Sora in Kingdom Hearts. My favorite video game of all time! I even changed my middle to one of the characters. I feel like we grew up together in this weird way. I am so happy to see that he turned out ok and is still flourishing as an adult! My gosh! Am I a Stan?lol
