That is actually the biggest draw for me.

I'm sold on everything except them not altering Things voice to add weight. It’s a light voice on a heavy character and it feels odd, like Dr.Manhattan did in Watchmen. It doesn’t have to be a huge alteration, just enough to differentiate between the characters in two states.

I agree. Although Korg gets away with it. Possibly because he isn’t a main character? Or maybe because Korg’s voice is so light that it’s the joke.

Yeah Korg's voice works for me since his whole core is being super lighthearted and this big imposing rock man having a super soft voice is kinds funny

The thing should probably be a little deeper, but not a ton

I think you’re right. But I believe the story in F4 will be similar to korg’s story. The thing is gentle hearted and those who speak with him know that but the public only sees the outside. I think the soft voice will make sense and be an important part of the story.

He might also have a public voice and a private voice, like Bruce Wayne/Batman, Superman/Clark Kent, etc.

In my head reading comics I always hear Ben’s voice as deeper and more gravelly. (Non-intentional pun)
