It’s hard to think of two characters more polar opposite than Big Hero 6‘s lovable healthcare robot Baymax and The Shining‘s deranged Jack Torrance, especially since one tries to save lives and the other tries to end them with an axe in the back. But it turns out even the sweetest character can lose his mind when he spends some time in The Overlook Hotel, because all work and no play makes Baymax a dull… large white thing.

30 Rock‘s Scott Adsit, the voice of the beloved caregiver from Big Hero 6, joined host Rob Paulsen on our Alpha series Talkin’ Toons, and the two read the scene from Stanley Kubrick’s classic horror film when Jack menaces his wife about bothering him when he’s working. Rob filled in for Wendy, and Scott took over for Jack with his very calm and soft-spoken Baymax. Believe it or not, that same soothing voice sounds so unhinged and dangerous in this context.

It’s always amazing hearing the unexpected ways these classic movie scenes both change and stay the same when played by a totally different character, but what’s particularly cool about this one is that by making Jack Torrance a cool-headed, unstable robot, we created a mini-Kubrick homage to another one of his iconic characters, Hal 9000 from 2001: A Space Odyssey.
