Best Sterling Holloway Character

Sterling Holloway's unique voice has brought so much to Disney characters in movies/shorts over the years.

for me this a very difficult choice and i'm going to let it sit for a little longer before choosing.

I decided to leave out his voice work in the Three Caballeros, Mickey and the Beanstalk, Make Mine Music, and various other films because he does not voice a character.

I voted for "CC", but even his voice-work without a character, such as in "The Three Caballeros", is very much worthwhile.

I voted for Kaa. I found this performance probably his best.

i clicked kaa, and immedietly regretted doing so.

there may be no visible votes for Mr.Stork, but my vote went to him for sure.

I didn't vote on the poll because I can't choose.

I really like what he did for Kaa. He improvised about 3/4 of his dialogue (Oh, my sinusssssssessssss)

His Pooh voice has a lazy & tired yet overly enthusiastic ring to it, which is pretty entertaining.

I love Ben & Me, he did a fine job voicing Amos in that short, especially when he yells "Was it electricity?!" in the kite flying sequence.

I think Mr. Stork is great too, I love his rendition of "Happy Birthday" (I wonder how much Disney had to pay for the rights to that song, especially in pre-WWII dollars) & him as the Cheshire Cat has a down-played, sly & down-to-earth kind of feeling, like a hippie or a beatnik.

I didn't really like his work in Bambi because he has such a minimal role in it, even though he voiced 3 characters in the film.

Sterling Holloway was one of my favorites!!! In fact, as far as voices go, he IS the greatest!!

I voted Pooh because, even though Pooh has never been a particular favorite of mine, I have to admit that he did a fantastic job and that's probably his greatest role.
