The other day I was watching "Friends", and then something hit me, Imoen sounds very much the same as Moniqua (however moniqa is spelled), what do you think??

It isn't the same person.
Courtney Cox Arquette, aka Monica, is a professional actor. The woman who has Imoens voice is a proffesional voiceactor. Someone posted a link here not too long ago, where all the voiceactors in BG2 were listed. Do a search, and you'll probably find it.

On a related note, I find it highly disturbing that the same person who voiced Anomen also voiced Pinky from Pinky and the Brain.

Anomen: So what do you want to do tonight?

Child of Bhaal: The same thing we do every night Anomen. Try to Ascend to Godhood.

Anomen is the same guy that did Pinky and the Brain? Well, I know what I'm going to be laughing about for the rest of the day

LOL! That's so weird that he voiced pinky. Well, they both had big egos, so I guess there's something in common between the two.

Pinky had no ego, he was a brain dead twit. It was Brain that had the ego, and lots of it.

Pinky, are you thinking what I am thinking?

Yeah Brain... I think so, but if you buttered a cat's back and dropped him, would he land buttered side down or on his feet?

Pinky, I for the sake of mankind, I am going to have to hurt you.

"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?"

Heheheheeee

But anyway.

Some more surprises for your enjoyment:

The Thumb = Number 4 on Codename: Kids Next Door (Dee Bradly Baker)

Bhaal + Kalah + Bernard = most of the voice cast of Cow and Chicken (Charlie Adler, Dee Bradly Baker, Michael Dorn)

Quayle = Johnny Bravo (Jeff Bennett)

Cernd = not only Leonardo from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but also He-Man/Prince Adam from Masters of the Universe (Cam Clarke)

Minsc = Chowquin from Titan A.E. (Jim Cummings)

Gorion = most of the weasels from Who Framed Roger Rabbit (again, Jim Cummings)

Khan Zaraah = made a guest appearance at the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards (guess who!)

Jierdan Firkraag = Monterey Jack from Chip 'n' Dale: Rescue Rangers (do I have to say it?)

Nalia = Vicky from the Fairly Oddparents (Grey DeLisle)

Viconia = Ginger from As Told By Ginger (Melissa Disney, and yes, she's a distant cousin [img]smile.gif[/img] )

Korgan? = Deckard Cain from the Diablo and Diablo 2 (I know that Michael Gough did the voice of Cain, and I know I can hear the voice in BG2, but not sure where...)

Mazzy = Fall-From-Grace (Jennifer Hale)

Aerie = Alora from BG1?

It's a toss-up between Valygar, Yoshimo, and Keldorn = Mojo Jojo (because Roger L. Jackson did work on BG2 and he's the voice of everyone's favorite evil monkey from the Powerpuff Girls)

I don't think any of you are going to believe this, but I think Anomen and Keldorn = Pinky and the Brain (Rob Paulsen and Maurice LaMarche)

Edwin = guest-starred on the British version of Who's Line is it Anyway (Yes, kiddies, there was a version of this before Drew Carey hosted, and it's funnier, IMO. Catch this version on Comedy Central.)

Somebody mentioned Prof. Farnsworth in a previous post. Well, the same voice actress also provides the voice of Dot Warner from Animaniacs and Babs Bunny from Tiny Toon Adventures. Tress MacNeille has a ton of voice credits, and by that alone I'm willing to guess Jaheira.

Gaelan Bayle = Bobby Pigeon from Animaniacs (Coo!) (John Mariano)

Lilarcor = Binx the cat from the movie Hocus Pocus (Jason Marsden)

Mae'Var = take your pick: "Howlin' Mad" Murdock from the A-Team or Lt. Reg Barclay from Star Trek: the Next Generation (Dwight Schultz)

The voice of Stimpy from Ren and Stimpy (Billy West) and the voice of the new Velma in all the new animated Scooby Doo movies (BJ Ward) are somewhere in this game.

Irenicus = guy who got decapitated in the Omen, Evil from Time Bandits, Prof. McCarthy from the 80's movie My Best Friend is a Vampire, St. John Talbot from Star Trek 5, Gorkon from Star Trek 6, Ras Al Ghul from the Batman animated series (he's the guy who puts Batman through all these tests so he can see if Batman's fit to marry his daughter...two-part episode), Spicer Lovejoy from Titanic, the good guy AND the bad guy in Quest of the Delta Knights...lots more stuff... (David Warner)

Best way to find these things is to take your manual(s), flip to the voiceover credits, go to http://www.imdb.com and start looking up names.

Pinky and the Brain will never be the same!
