He is such a good actor. I mean his performance as Godfrey in KoH, Ra's Al Ghul in Batman Begins, and Aslan in Narnia was really awesome. I was a little shocked when I heard Liam Neeson was going to play as Aslan. But anyways, what do you guys think of him?

I first watched him in Koh--then i found out that he played Aslan too.

And, yes, he has such great voice. Liam Neeson is a great actor.

I liked him in Star Wars, and loved him as Aslan in Narnia. He did an awesome Aslan. I can't wait to see him return in Prince Caspian!

He's definitely one of my fave actors :-D. He seems like a very kind, gentle guy, and his voice, wow :swoon:!

He was a great Qui-Gon Jinn in The Phantom Menace (one of the few bright spots in that film, in fact :confused2:), and his portrayal of Godfrey in Kingdom of Heaven was wonderful; it was rather disappointing that he didn't get more screentime in the theatrical version of it (that's one of the main reasons I want to get the director's cut of the film) :confused:. I also thought he did a great job as Ras Al Ghul in Batman Begins, although it was surprising to see him playing a villainous character- he's been a "good guy" in most of his roles. He was an absolutely perfect Aslan in The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe :yes:! There's a strength and gentleness to his voice that fit that character perfectly. I've also seen him in that version of Les Miserables, Lalaithmindil, and I agree, he was an excellent Jean Valjean :yes:!

Here are a few other films of his you guys should see if you haven't yet: Schindler's List (he plays the lead, and his delivery of the speech at the end of the film is just heartbreaking :'( ), Rob Roy, and Nell (Jodie Foster plays the lead, but Liam steals the movie, IMO ;)). He's excellent in all three :yes:.

He's incredible! Just last week in my Ancient History class, we were watching a doco narrated by him. I made quite a fool of myself, jumping up and down going, "Omg! It's Liam Neeson!" Then, someone said, "Great, now all I can here is Qui-gon!" Then someone said the same about Ra's Al Ghul!

He's a terrific actor in my opinion! *Gasp* Seeing as how Sean Connery voiced Drago in Dragonheart, perhaps Liam Neeson should lend his voice to Smaug!

Liam Neeson is amazing. period. He's one of the few actors where I haven't disliked him in any movie. He was perfect for Valjean; I adored him as Godfrey; I even loved him as a villian! But I must say I didn't realize that he was Qui-Gon until a few months ago. I knew there was some reason why I loved him so much ^^
I didn't realize he's the voice of Aslan!

He has got to be my favorite actor of all! (mostly because of his roll as Qui'Gon Jin in starwars) but you can't foget his amazing performance in the new batman movie and his voice fits perfectly for Aslan!


I really liked him as Raz Algoul. He is one of those bad guys who is clearly bad but at the same time you can understand why he is doing what he is doing and where he is comming from. he almost persuades you that he is doing the right thing at first.

musn't forget Ewan McGregor as the only other bright spot in that film. ;)

I was very disappointed when Aslan\Liam didn't get much screentime in Prince Caspian. ugh. and Aslan is so prominent in the book. That's the only bone I have to pick with Adamson and his screenwriters...oh well....at least he was in it, lol.

ohh... Mr. Neesons voice... oi.
It makes me swoon!
I, personally, think he should do some of those books on cassette/cd.
that would be awesome. <3
