Filipinos? I visited my family in the Philippines in 2019, and Christmas is similar to Halloween in my province. The kids/adults go from house-to-house receiving candy or money. Carolers go around singing and playing their handmade instruments that are usually made of recycled trash cans, etc. They also usually get money for their songs.

To be completely honest, Ian has a really great voice for animated stuff. The frog movie was probably pretty lame, but his voice would fit into a high-budget animated film, too, one with a good voice director to help him reach his potential.

Funny thing is he was in angry birds with Anthony and they dropped him and only brought Anthony back for the second film

[@Babyteef]

@@flckvanse that’s quite strange imo, Anthony’s voice has alot more rasp in it and ig that would make his voice more appealing for voice work but i think Ian has a way better voice for that kind of stuff, Anthony is way too recognizable and while they mightve thought that that was a good thing it completely takes me out of the character he’s voicing, Ian has a more neutral voice and i think if he’d actually went down the voice actor route he really would’ve went far in it, never heard that mf mess up a sentence once

[@spencerlively3049]

@@mackenziewoloschuk7375 it depends on the Frog Kingdom lore. I haven't seen the first one, or the second one, and probably never will, but it seems more like he was a mercenary/chaotic neutral/opportunist type of villain than a "big bad". Even then, there are hella examples of villains that have silly voices to make them appear more "crazy evil" than "cold and calculated evil". His VO fits well into a certain category of villain to the point that I'm sure it was intentional.
