#671 | | Nemesis Prime Join Date: Aug 2007 Posts: 933 Location: Ft Meade, Maryland Collection Count: 200 plus (300 is in my sights!) | I'm on board with Frank for Megs. If Cullen did Prime a little deeper, then Frank can do Megs deeper. My problem with Hugo's Megs is that it merely a monster voice. There is no regal, personality or pizzazz to it. It is simply an evil villian voice.
If he does Megs a lil deeper, it'd be perfect. If you can't get Frank, Try and see if you could get Lenoard Nimoy to be Megs, his Galvatron from G1 is the perfect way to kick off a resurrected Megatron. Corey Burton would also be an excellent choice. In short, if youb guys can, try and get more TF voice actors!! Some of the guys you have (like CHarlie Adler) can give more insight and are a major part of Transformers history.
I just hope there's nothing stupid like "Halle Berry as Arcee!", when there are much more accomplished and experienced TF voice actors.  Quote:

He did an awesome job, I'm just wondering if you even considered having Peter Cullen voice him since he voiced Ironhide in G1 & you already have him voicing Prime. |

He just sounds like a screechy old man. Quote: |

| I think you're overestimating how much they actually *care* about Transformers. It was just a job for them. I dare say Peter Cullen is (rightly) more proud of playing Eeyore than Prime, given Eeyore is from a classic, well-respected story, rather than a series of shakily-written toy commercials whose voice director caused the 1987 voice actor's strike and put him out of work for a while. |

Last I checked, Movie Megatron is not G1 Megatron. |

#679 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2006 Posts: 10,775 Location: Static Spark Ward Collection Count: 106 News Credits: 6 | Weaving>Welker for Movie Megs, imo. Nothing against Welker as a voice actor, but his Megatron sounds as though he's about to dye of a heart attack or something. Weaving's rendition is much more suited to Movie Megs. Welker could voice Soundwave, or even the Fallen. Soundwave's voice will more than likely be so synthesized that ti won't matter who's voicing him, and the Fallen, if actually in the movie, would probably benefit from having an old scratchy voice.

#680 | | Constructicon Join Date: Jun 2005 Posts: 726 Location: New Zealand News Credits: 2 | I'm with you Natalie. Much as I like Welkers voice it doesn't suit the movie era. If we were to see any, i'd like to see David Kaye doing him, albeit with a deeper tone as well. I would like to see Soundwave done by Welker, or the voice to be manipulated so it's near identical to how he sounded in G1, as I think that SW's voice is about as iconic as his alt mode was.
