Freemanic Paracusia |
Title text: It's amazing what it does for YouTube comments. |
Explanation
This explanation may be incomplete or incorrect: Please include the reason why this explanation is incomplete, like this: {{incomplete|reason}} If you can address this issue, please edit the page! Thanks. |
Morgan Freeman is an American actor, film director, and narrator. He is known for his soothing and mellow voice, which helps amplify his performances, such as God in Bruce Almighty and its sequel Evan Almighty, as well as narrator in War of the Worlds by Steven Spielberg.
The comic is a play on the combination of the two. The idea is that while reading a text, instead of hearing you own voice in your mind's ear, you substitute it for Freeman's voice, giving a new perspective on the contents of the text.
The title text suggests to apply this specifically on the mostly stupid comments on YouTube.

- Correct - this has now been included in a rephrased Morgan Freeman explain. That must be his most known part, and also a movie he narrates! Kynde (talk) 19:50, 7 July 2014 (UTC)
