    I didn't notice it when I watched the movie but I was just checking out some clips on youtube and when Soundwave kills Que Bumblee says "goodbye my old friend". Is that correct or am i just hearing things?

    I swear to God, "Goodbye My Old friend." is in Mark Ryan's voice, I could recognize it anywhere.

    Many people have to said to me that it isn't, BUT JESUS CHRIST just listen to him speaking! THAT'S GODDAMN MARK RYAN!

    It's not. Mark Ryan has an accent. And also sounds completely different than the voice he used in that scene.

    Also when BB actually talks (like at the end of the first movie and in that deleted trailer bit where he says Sam's name after a radio sentence) his mouth plate/detail bobs up and down Optimus-style. It didn't there.

    Unfortunately, you can't prove it [neither can I for that matter].

    But seriously, take another look at the audio and tell me it doesn't sound a hell lot like Mark Ryan.

    EDIT: Post refering to Seekerblackout.

    Was it ever explained why he reverted back to silent Bee after the first movie?

    In ROTF Sam basically says BB plays up the not talking ordeal, probably for sympathy/lols under that circumstance. And in the deleted line I mentioned when he says Sam's name it's very hoarse and raspy, like it hurts to speak. Most likely it's just not easy to speak constantly and since he's adept at using the radio to communicate he just doesn't bother with talking anymore. Probably the only reason he talked at the end of the first movie was because of the importance of his dialogue, he felt it was worth talking then.

    What did you guys think of Bumblebee's voice in the first film, when he actually talks (at the end of the film)? I thought it was a pretty distinguished voice, not just in terms of the accent/ sound of it, but also in terms of the way he speaks; he sounds so formal/ well spoken. However, I also think that voice doesn't suit his character because he seems like a young, teenage-esque bot, but the voice sounds like that of a middle-aged man.

    I don't know. When he said "goodbye my old friend" it just didn't sound like the radio voice to me but I guess if that's what it is.

    Really? I see people posting youtube videos all the time. I didn't realize I did something wrong. Why can't i post it?

    I deleted it in case it would get me in trouble.

    The following is a link to the sticky thread which explains the prohibition against posting links to videos of DOTM or embedding them in posts.

    Wow, thanks. I completely missed that and I just wasn't thinking about it being bootlegged. That was a numbskull moment for me.

    Hey, seekerblackout. You might want to delete you post as well because it still has the video embedded in it. I'm not looking to get into trouble. Just trying to find an answer is all.

    The answer to the question is Bumbleee actually using real voice

    During the godfather part 3 al Pacino, while in Siciily says "goodbye old friend". This is exactly the same tone and wording of bumblebee and hence I can come to the conclusion it is not bumblebees voice during transformers 3 but indeed his radio. Also he has an English accent in the beginning when he explains to prime he wishes to stay as SAMs guardian
