    Leonard Nimoy - Rebirth Megatron
    Corey Burton - Cuz he's effin awesome
    Frank Welker - See above
    Jack Angel - G1's Astrotrain.

    Cuz I was thinking.... What if the SR71 is actually AstroTrain? I always thought Astrotrain's voice was cool as ish, and him being a Decepticon fits more than Jetfire...

    I'd really enjoy hearing Frank Welker play Sounwave, and any of his tapes again, along with Susan Blu again as Arcee. I'd also be quite happy to support many other Transformers voice actors, like Scott McNeil, David Kaye, Blu Mankuma, Corey Burton, and too many more to name or count.

    For returning characters, I wouldn't mind seeing Charlie Adler come back as Starscream. From what I could tell, he did a good job at replicating Starscream's high-octave voice.

    Really though, I 'm hoping that the Transformers get a lot more lines of speech this time! :D

    Welker for Soundwave, Welker for Fallen. He's owed.

    You know, hearing the deep voice he used for The Cave of Wonders, he probably would do a great job as the voice of the Fallen One! :)

    Somebody on YouTube said that Welker is days away to sign to be the voice of Megatron for TF2. I don't know if that is true or not. I am just posting this to find out if anybody else heard about this.

    That sounds highly unlikely.

    As for voices in TF2, I don't really care who plays what as long as the voices are a good fit for the way the characters are portrayed on the big screen.

    Have you seen Sin City? Imagine his voice in that with processing similar to G1 Soundwave. He could actually carry a conversation and be badass at the same time.

    Would love to have Frank Welker do Soundwave eventhough his voice is modulated to all hell. He knows how Soundwave speaks and articulates.

    Charlie Adler is back doing Starscream as far as i know. He is cappable of reaching screech pitches with his voice, Ickus (sp?) from ARRG! Real Monsters! is a good example of what he had do with his voice range.

    As long as the voice fits the live action interpretation for the character, I don't care who voices who.

    Who would be the best choice to voice Arcee ?

    If this has been asked sorry I haven't been on for a while. Nevertheless, with many voice talents there are out there who should they go with.

    I've narrowed to three:

    Sarah Michelle Gellar

    Jorja Fox

    Glenn Close

    Remember these voices would be modified to fit the specs.

    It all depends on her character really. I got this bad, bad BAAAAAD, feeling they are going to to make her this bad kinda 'oh noes, decepticons, when will the male autobot characters help me?' style character, something that would piss me off to no end

    I think either Jorja Fox or the quintessential Arcee voice actress, Susan Blu, would be my two top choices.

    it also depends on if she's in it enough to warrent a voice actor, let alone a famous one. We've only seen her bikes in one scene, right?

    Here's who I think should voice who in Revenge of the Fallen:

    Optimus Prime - Peter Cullen (confirmed)
    Bumblebee - Mark Ryan (confirmed)
    Ironhide - Jess Harnell (1st film)
    Ratchet - Robert Foxworth (1st film)
    Arcee - Jorja Fox/Susan Blu/Malin Akerman
    Jetfire - Rutger Hauer
    Jolt - Brian Drummond
    Sideswipe - Steven Blum
    Skids - Sam Vincent
    Twin 2 - No comment until character named
    Wheeljack - Paul Eiding (formerly G1 Perceptor)

    Megatron - Hugo Weaving (1st film)
    Starscream - Charlie Adler (1st film)
    Soundwave - Frank Welker (would be nice for him to reprise at least the master of sound)
    Barricade - Jess Harnell (1st film)
    Ravage - Frank Welker for vocal effects
    Constructicons - Michael Bell, Neil Ross, Gregg Burger, Frank Welker and Arthur Burghardt (Devastator)

    The Fallen - James Earl Jones (perfect evil voice for the character)

    We haven't seen much of the movie yet to make any determination which of the TFs have the most speaking time. For all we know Arcee has a lot to say. I hope.
