Orson Welles does voiceover for a TV ad for frozen peas (MP3). A tremendous melding of the genius and the asshole that, for 70 years, battled it out within Orson’s corpulent interior.
In the same vein, here’s a drunk Orson selling crap wine, poorly. And here’s the White Stripes/Citizen Kane mashup we’ve all been waiting for for a couple albums now.

I’ve had a copy of the “You can’t say ‘in’ before ‘July'” clip for a while – I love that clip. (And the Pinky & The Brain short “Yes, Always!” featuring a script that is almost verbatim from that same recording session.)
And then there were the endless parodies of these commercials…like the bits from “The Critic” – “Rosebud Frozen Peas – full of goodness and green peaness…wait, I’m not saying that, it’s terrible…”
If I only I could find some audio of Orson Welles performance in the Transformers movie. The web has failed me.
I’m pretty sure the Transformers movie is on DVD – which means it’s probably available on BitTorrent…
