What a year it’s been for Tim Allen. Not only is his Buzz Lightyear part of the most successful animated movie of all-time, but now you can’t go to any movie or watch any TV show without hearing Allen’s voice. He’s the spokesperson for Chevy. He’s the spokesperson for Campbell’s Soup. He’s the spokesperson for the State of Michigan. And there are others I can’t think of right now. It’s gotten to the point that every time a commercial comes on I think I’m going to hear Tim Allen’s voice.
And it’s not just on TV. Allen can be heard on ads that play in theaters prior to the movies. He’s being heard everywhere! But he’s not seen anywhere.
And wait until the commercials start running for the DVD release of Toy Story 3. I wonder if Disney will use Allen to do the voice over for that campaign. Why not? He’s the hottest voice in the media right now. Sorry Woody.
