This article previously had his height given as 6' 3½" in the beginning, and then 6' 4". I've changed the latter to 6' 3½"; his official site says he is "either 6'3" or 6'4", or somewhere in between," while IMDB lists his height as 6' 3½", so I went with that. If anyone has another source, feel free to change it back. Odysseyandoracle 05:56, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

"Add "Shoot to Kill" with Sidney POitier, Tom Berenger & Kirstie Alley (1988)"
I deleted this dangling comment at the end of the entry. Odds are it was probably meant to go here. -mordicai. 16:00, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

Unlucky Danziger?
Slightly off-topic. Clancy Brown's role as "Danzinger" in the short-lived Scifi show "Earth 2" is memorable for me as probably the most unluckiest guy. In many roles where actor Clancy Brown would appear, he always would play a character who has bad luck or of some misfortune.

The characters he represents are somewhat alike the "red-shirt" ensigns who get killed or hurt from Star Trek.

I do not know if this is worth mentioning, but maybe a few may notice what I mean.

 * I've always thought Alonzo was the most unluckiest to be honest :-P thanks/Fenton, Matthew Lexic Dark 52278 Alpha 771 15:21, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

reprised his role?
The text says Clancy "reprised his role as Captain William Hadley (same last name and rank as in The Shawshank Redemption) in The Guardian." I thought "reprising a role" meant to play the same character in a subsequent movie or play, not a different, unrelated character, no matter how similar the characters may be. Am I mistaken?

link
Can someone explain why "in" (inch), "m" (meter), and "neighbor" are WikiLinks in this article? Why are those links useful? That is, how does their benefit justify the "distraction factor" of the links? If there is a Wikirule that governs this, please inform me. Thanks! --DAW0001 (talk) 15:08, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

I removed these based on WP:CONTEXT. Comments? --DAW0001 (talk) 21:02, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Lexaeus
Could some WP-knowledgable person explain why the statement regarding CJB3's upcoming voice role should be removed. I don't know if it should or should not, but I am tired of seeing it bounce in and out!

Is it speculation? Is stating as fact something that has been announced WILL happen in the future a problem? Is it unsourced? Please explain....

This is the text: He will be voicing Lexaeus from the video game Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories. --DAW0001 (talk) 17:26, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

The lead and "best known" role
Seems there's been a bit of back-and-forth about this over time. Many "please cite a source" revert rationales, although the current listing for Carnivale is itself unsourced, was only added by an anon a month ago, and is not even listed at all in his official bio, so it seems like a very odd and rather poor choice, IMO. My personal opinion is for the Kurgan in the Highlander, as it is a widely known and followed cult classic, and the image of his character is on the main page of clancybrown.com. Thoughts?

Yakone
I think he might have played a character on The Legend of Korra which is a sequel to Avatar the Last Airbender. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.13.174.66 (talk) 18:57, 9 June 2012 (UTC)

Voice work
Should be listed in separate section — Preceding unsigned comment added by JBrownIII (talk • contribs) 08:40, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
 * It might be worth mentioning that Brown got into voice work in part because "the opportunity to do cartoons arose around the time his first child was born, giving him an incentive [...] to stay closer to home." -- 109.76.130.202 (talk) 03:34, 18 March 2022 (UTC)

OCD nightmare
Ok so there’s a separation between live action roles and voice acting in animated (film/TV). Then there’s the fact that he did the voice for Surtur in Thor: Ragnarok, and the voice for Parallax in Green Lantern. Both are live action films, not animated, and in both he only did a voice role. The latter is covered under live action roles (it isn’t, it’s just voice), and the former under voice (which it is) in animated film (which it isn’t).

Can someone please pick a section for voice in live action roles? 2601:1C2:5000:1472:D91F:23E3:460:32CC (talk) 21:20, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
