Girl1: "ohmygawd, Anissa, what are you wearing?!"
Anissa: "This is the traditional uniform of my people, we have conquered untold worlds and slain billions while wearing -"
Girl1: "ohmygawd, it certainly looks ancient!"
*Girl2+3+4 start giggling in a cackling manner*
*Anissa raises her hand to perform the viltrumite knife chop, but hesitates*
*In a flashback, the audience see her blood covered sitting in detention with some other pupils looking bored, from the last time she did that*
*Anissa changes her mind, her eyes start to well up and she flies away crashing the ceiling, debris and dust scatter everywhere*
Girl2: "ohmygawd, she is so extra ..."

I mean, if they can animated him like that in one frame, why can't they do it in others?

It's not like making his face more angular vs rounded is super complicated.

u/MomReadsLateAtNight Atom Eve Apr 09 '26

Oh my god i felt like i was the only one thinking this lmao! I also don't like the voice actor they chose. His voice just doesn't have the depth or inflection necessary to bring out terror like Thraggs character is supposed to!

u/Rob_Ocelot Apr 10 '26

This is what happens when you use Clancy Brown too soon as a VA.

There's no way you can go deeper and more badass.

(Mind you, CB as Thragg would be a bit too on the nose cliche so there's that)

4

u/MomReadsLateAtNight Atom Eve Apr 10 '26

He would have been perfect for Thragg. What we needed was on the nose. Thragg is supposed to strike fear and demand obedience, his voice alone should do that. Lee Pace aint that at all.

Lee Pace is goated for that role though. Dude played Thranduil and Ronan the Accuser, and Ronan is basically the exact same character as Thragg

Ronan wasn’t that intimidating imo. He seemed like more of a joke craving more power

u/Ok_Antelope_1953 Invincible 🍑 Apr 10 '26

he has an ethereal, elven voice, which doesn't pair well with the strongest viltrumite chadmaxxer

4

u/ellieetsch Apr 10 '26

Since I first read the comic after season 1 I had been hoping for Ron Perlman, I think he could balance the sinister calm but barely concealed rage underneath better than anyone. Oh well.... Hopefully Lee Pace is good in the next two episodes, because if he doesn't nail it thats a significant nock on an already bruised show for me.

You mean the same thing y'all bitched about with Conquest

10

u/Locem Apr 09 '26

Fair. I didn't like Conquest at his reveal but it "clicked" pretty quick with me once I heard him fighting in the finale.

I'm reserving judgement on Thragg's voice actor until the next two eps but I'm def a little underwhelmed so far.

Yes people complained I was there. Many were mentioning other VAs who they thought would fit the role better until they allowed Jeffrey Dean Morgan to actually cook. Then everyone switched up on their stance and there were no complaints about him again.

why did they go so off model with him? 🤔

edit: In retrospect, it is pretty accurate to Cory's Thragg overall while many people would prefer Ryan's Thragg, but I still feel there are some errors. They may not be present during Thragg's more important scenes that will have higher fidelity animation.

u/Pupulauls9000 Fortnite Invincible Apr 09 '26

They didn’t. He looks like how Cory Walker draws him, and the entire show is based on Cory Walker’s art

I disagree. Cory's Thragg still had a more defined chin and jawline that they simply failed to show in the animation, and as little as that is, it genuinely makes all the difference.
