@soulater13 I think he was referring to Soul Music the cartoon, where Christopher Lee did the voice for Death. It'd be interesting to hear him do this scene. But I think I prefer the voice actor they got for Hogfather, especially when he delivers the second "How Dare You" line.
Wow. This guy brings a whole new definition to the term 'venomous'. A certain six words sound like they're literally coated in taipan, or at least rattlesnake, venom. Simply incredible mate.
The only problem with this movie, or at all making a movie adaptation of Discworld, is that there is no way to actually do proper justice to Death's 'speech' (Because it's technically not speaking at all. It's simply the words appearing in the heads of people, sounding rather like cement blocks being rubbed together.). Though both Christopher Lee and Ian Richardson do a great job.
But in general, this scene is just made of pure awesome.
@m0nac0 It's not a spirit. Those are the Auditors of reality, and, as anthropomorphic personifications (much like Death himself) they are not allowed to interfere in mortal matters, much less hurry them on to their extintions.
@tehredmage Not exactly ... the Auditors dont fit into the role of Discworld Gods or Anthropomorphic personifications because they are not created or sustained by human belief or thoughts ... infact they are the anti-thesis of that idea ... its really refreshing to have villians who are not evil or anti-villians or sympathetic, they dont have the imagination
What I was saying was that The Auditors (which were the ones who turned into dogs at the end) decided to start murdering the minds of children. So Death stepped in and smashed The Auditors.
@vassephardi In earlier books we meet Ysabel, Death's adopted daughter. Her parents died in the Great Nef desert and for some reason, never explained, Death rescued Ysabel and raised her. She later marries Mort, who is 'hired' by Death to be Death's apprentice. Ysabel and Mort have one child, Susan.
@MrsNorris55 Oh, interesting. I'm going to have to read the books. I never even heard of them, or this movie, until like last year when I borrowed it from the public library.
This is the best part of movie... whole the time they show Death as quite warm and pleasant person... while here... when he says it, those lights in his eyes, those lightnings in background... damn, you can shit your pants!
HAVE YOU BEEN NAUGHTY OR NICE? ;) oh, my God! I love Death, he's my favourite hero of Pratchett's books. Unfortunately, I haven't seen the 'Hogfather' movie =/ greetings for every Pratchett's fan :** Death 4ever! =]
The 3 dislikes were the Auditors...

@m0nac0 Rules: Do not interfere and especially with childrens minds.
Notice that the "Immortals" they were killing all had to do with child development?
They were attacking children.
Until Death stepped in.
Notice that Death has a child of his own and she protected the children as well.
