  5. SWEET!!!! Markie Post and GINA TORRES - YES!!!! Gina Torres was great as a voice on a recent episode of the Boondocks, was great on Firefly and Cleopatra 2029, great as Chris Rock's wife in "I Think I Love My Wife" (and so was Keri Washington, too), and she is the Wife of one of my favorite voice-owners/actors, LAURENCE FISHBURNE. Markie Post (I agree WHOLEHEARTEDLY with Anonymous at 8/6/10, LOL!!!!) - yes, I concur, and I too remember Night Court fondly. I'd also think that Laurence Fishburne along with David Keith, James Earl Jones, Jeff Bridges, Edward James Olmos, Patrick Stewart, Bruce Boxleitner, Susan Blu, David Warner, James Avery, Judd Nelson, Dan Gilvezan, and the guy who sounded dead on Robert Stack in Transformers:Animated would also make GREAT additions to any Transformers voice part.
