Kevin Spacey Soundboard

[w3b]

I think Spacey would make a better soundboard than some might think.  He was in American Beauty where right 'off the bat' he says "my name is Lester Burnham...I'm 42 years old".  He was also in se7en, K-PAX, L.A. Confidential, The Negotiator, Outbreak, The Usual Suspects, also a movie called Hostile Hostages that is full of great lines, Superman might provide some fun random funny lines. 

It would take alot of work but the potential for a great soundboard is there.

Kevin is one of my favorites, he has a GREAT voice.  There is a ridiculously small soundboard here - http://www.angelfire.com/rebellion/charliesworld/Kevin_Spacey.swf

I like "Hello, This is Lester Burnham." I don't know why there isn't a more advanced board already, he has the perfect smart ass voice.

I also believe he talks about being dead/dying in American Beauty, which would make for some interesting lines in a conversation.  He also talks about how his wife and daughter hate him lol. 

"My name is Lester Burnham. This is my neighborhood; this is my street; this is my life. I am 42 years old; in less than a year I will be dead. Of course I don't know that yet, and in a way, I am dead already.  Both my wife and daughter think I'm this gigantic loser and they're right, I have lost something. I'm not exactly sure what it is but I know I didn't always feel this... sedated. But you know what? It's never too late to get it back."

Okay, if anyone is up to putting together a soundboard, I could grab his lines from American Beauty and The Usual Suspects with Windows Movie Maker, I have the DVDs.

I'll put the board together for you if it's around 100 lines.  If it's a mega board you want then Jack is the man to ask.

I have those DVDs but i'm cutting some Gene Hackman lines from the old Superman movies.

Since I'll use Windows Movie Maker, which saves the clips into video files, what program should I use to convert them to MP3/whatever you need?

Import that WMV file into a program like Acid Pro (mabye Audacity) > Remove video > and the save the audio track as an mp3.

IHere's a little audio encoder that might come in useful to you:

I'll grab alot of his other lines from various movies to add to the board.  I know you're concentrating on American Beauty and Usual Suspects.I have Superman, Se7en and i'm sure to find other clips on youtube.

His voice is so uniquely his. He's so peculiar, I can't really pin point it...but as far as making a soundboard..wow that would be incredible...Just think of all the creepy lines from "Seven"
