"Short, sweet and to the point. Gotta love Dan!"
If you could sum up Bumblebee & Me in three words, what would they be?An amusing and honnest look at the ups and downs of voice acting in the 80s.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Bumblebee & Me?How Dan described the way the actors all had to leave the booth when takes were made that included the character of Seaspray.
What does Dan Gilvezan bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?Dan has an amazing voice and the fact he wrote the book means that he knows where to emphasize. This feels like you're sitting with him around a campfire listening to his life experience. It's amazing to hear the magic and emotion behind the words he wrote.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?I'd say that the most emotional moment is when Dan talks of his experience with Chris Latta. He is very honnest about what that was like, and from what I know of Dan, this is very likely to be close to the real deal. He doesn't alter what the facts were, and it presents a large level of melancholia about Chris Latta that most others would probably not have had the honnesty to say.
Any additional comments?Get this audiobook, really, it'll beat the crap out of any TV show you might waste your time on. It's great for that 2 hour car drive to see grandma, and the kids will enjoy it just as much as the nostalgic adult.
