But...the transition should involve Apu being shot and killed during a robbery by a daranged liberal, drug addict. His family will then sell the Quiky Mart to the replacement. |

His family will then sell the Quiky Mart to the replacement. Apu IS the most culturally appropriate shopkeeper they could ever have possibly imagined, at least in the 80s. Nowadays, Apu is retired, his kids went to med school, and the Kwik-E-Mart has been bought by recent Afghani Muslim “refugees” with a taxpayer-guaranteed SBA loan that most American citizens wouldn’t dream of qualifying for.

The American actor voiced the Indian shopkeeper for 30 years accused of reinforcing racial stereotypes... Quoting: Google_It Azaria confirmed his time as the Kwik-E-Mart owner is over. “All we know there is I won’t be doing the voice anymore, unless there’s some way to transition it or something,” the 55-year-old said. “We all made the decision together… We all agreed on it. “We all feel like it’s the right thing and good about it.” [link to thewatchtowers.org (secure)] via @NewsAlternative He so does not look like Apu. 30 years is a good long run for any actor point blank period. It is astounding statistically speaking and so is the Simpsons. Apu has given him more than the cancel culture progressives could ever take away. So RIP Apu and thanks for the laughs Azaria! Azaria is becoming just another Liberal cop-out; he didn't seem to have a problem performing as the campy Pharaoh with the thick lisp in those three NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM movies, now did he? Don't get me wrong: he's a very talented man... his performance as Cecil B. DeMille in SANDS OF OBLIVION was eerily spot-on! But, it sounds as if his moral compass needs the needle re-magnetized. The bottomline is that -these days- you CAN'T do dialects without pissing someone off. It's become the spoken version of Blackface! BTW: I happen to be a former voice-over actor myself, and made some decent money while doing it. The theater training I received back in the 70's was VERY vocal-heavy and the most difficult aspect of that was the mastering of dialects because you have to retrain not only your mind but also the muscles of your mouth to accurately duplicate native rhythms. FEW actors today bother, but at one time it was a cherished skill and those "character" actors were among the best-paid in the industry. And Azaria is one of the very BEST. Acting students today never see such training offered in even the finest of universities; instead, if they're lucky they'll find an old pro who will privately tutor them -at great expense- to learn those skills. But studios always have them onhand: now you know what a "Dialogue Coach" does when you see the credits roll on your favorite films! Last Edited by GSB/LTD on 01/18/2020 08:47 AM |

We called them the Punjabi Mafia because they all came from extremely wealthy families and wore gold chains like they were 80s rappers. One of them rolled up to school as a freshman in a $200,000 Acura NSX. None of us white boys came from anything remotely close to those guys, not even the plastic surgeon’s son.

It's the most common one attempted by some drunk making a cheap joke at a party, but in reality with all of the natural nuances of spoken Irish-English it's also among the most difficult to master professionally. The Scots likewise have so many vocal fluctuations that it takes some serious work to get them just right. I especially have ALOT of admiration for UK actors because they can really nail American dialects while our own actors rarely seem to pull off authentic counterparts. |
