Anyone else find this annoying? Why not cast actual little people instead as there must be many talented ones out in Hollywood.

But without regular actors playing dwarfs there would be no Tim Conway's Dorf.
Oh, wait, now I see your point.

Well, D&D wouldn't be the same without them.

I hate it
Also when they use regular sized actors for dwarves they CG them (Hobbit/LOTR aside) and it looks horrific
It's the same as voice actors, Some Voice actors are fantastic yet they'd rather use a "Celeb" voice.

Tiptoes. Gary Oldman plays a dwarf. Just a weird movie.
However, Peter Dinklage said the original cut was great, but the studio butchered it.

The same reason Hollywood hires big names for animated movies instead of the numerous talented professional voice actors out there.

The same reason Hollywood hires big names for animated movies instead of the numerous talented professional voice actors out there. Especially when their voices are going to be unrecognizable like in Alvin & The Chipmunks or something. I can kind of understand if it's a motion capture thing and the actor is playing the character and the voice. I guess like Billy Crudup as Dr. Manhattan. Bradley Cooper might be a grey area. "Animated" character in a live action movie with other stars. |
