@mjmage33 simple,the DEATH you saw in the Hogfather was the discworlds DEATH... the DEATH as seen in the sandman books is our DEATH,they are all related but they are all small deaths,part of the great DEATH ASRIAL....
The late Iain Richardson was for me, the definitive voice of Death. There's something to his voice that seems to cut straight through you (no pun intended here!), and his sudden, untimely loss was a great tragedy to the world of British performers. Check out the 'House of Cards' trilogy - as devious politician, Francis Urquart, he's even more deadly, but equally as brilliant.
@Pardan There are very few books by Terry Pratchett that don't cause me to cry. I don't cry over sadness though. It's the beauty that brings tears to my eyes. The self reflection on the nature of charity in the character of Granny Weatherwax, the observation of the people of Cockbill street by Sam Vimes. The Tooth Fairy is one of the things that touches me the most.
Where can I get this movie? Is it possible to download it? It's not available in my country, and it seems I'm the only one who knows Terry Pratchett's existence in our local bookstore...
Although, I just realized, Christopher Lee does narrate Death in The Colour of Magic. Here, in Hogfather, however, it's Sir Ian Richardson. Both have fantastic voices, though.
Love the scene and love the book, but man does the acting in this movie sucks, and the pacing sucks even more. :(

Terry Pratchett really has a handle on humanism in a way that makes sense to me.
<3 Mr. Pratchett.

Death is simply the best discworld character EVER. Yep, even better than Granny Weatherwax and the witches.

Death DOES rock (and so does Susan), but I have to wonder... is Discworld's Death or Sandman's Death cooler?

Not really. This Death is a rather cool guy.

@SaigeCounsul Not at all. I had tears in my eyes when I first read the scene in Hogfather. This is beauty. And truth.

they have the kind of "deep, soothing and commanding" voices you would have imagined when reading Death's dialogue in CAPS.
