    I loved Johnson in the first episode of TFP, so I'd be completely down with that.

    I think it would be cool for Devastator if they did something different and had six individual actors playing the Constructicons say the same lines and overlaid them along with some electronic modulation for Devastator.

    I'd love Mark Hamill to voice Starscream. I'd welcome John Goodman if they swapped him from Hound to Ironhide. Shit, let's face it...Bayverse Hound pretty much was Ironhide. I could see Stephen Lang being a decent Brawn.

    Oh that would be cool!
    And John Goodman would make a good G1 Ironhide, I liked his performance as Hound.

    I'd personally like to see an entirely new generation of actors and actresses voicing our favorite characters, rather than going back to the same old voices.

    If we have to use voice actors and actresses who have played Transformers before, give the roles to the ones who have reprised their roles the least and who have had good reception for their voice work.

    I would prefer this as well. Peter Cullen and Frank Welker are getting up there in years to be playing younger versions of their characters. And we've seen what it looks like when voice actors are hired to impersonate Cullen or Welker. It never works. So just go in a whole new direction with completely new voices that talented actors can make their own

    Heresy! Peter Cullen IS Optimus Prime. I want to hear him as Prime as long as he is able to do it. Frank Welker's Megatron as well.

    Frank I think can and will play Megatron again since he has been voicing Megatron/Galvatron since AOE. But I do wonder if for Orian Pax (if they indeed go that route which I think they will) they might give him a younger voice instead of it being Peter Cullen.

    That is a valid point since Orion Pax originally had a different and younger-sounding voice.

    As a UT kid I'd be all for them bringing back David Kaye and Garry Chalk back to play Optimus and Megatron, seeing as they have yet to return for any new versions of their beast characters.

    When Peter and Frank pass (unfortunately that will happen) I would like to see Gary Chalk and David return to voice Prime and Megatron for the movies (and in general).

    Why is this a foregone conclusion?

    I agree that Garry and David are natural candidates.

    No it was good and it was critically acclaimed plus the director is an oscar winner.
