Who would you pick to voice in Transformers

Post by wolfbolt86 »

If you had the choice of being able to pick any star from movies, plays, and tv shows who would you pick to play each character. And they have to still be alive.

Some of my would be:
Autobots:
Christopher Lloyd as
Wheeljack
Michael Caine as Ratchet,
Mark Wahlberg as Hound
Robert Duvall as Ironhide
Morgan Freeman as Ultra Magnus
Jim Belushi as Powerglide
Tim Curry as Perceptor.

Decepticons:
Clancy Brown as Thundercracker,
Michael Keaton as Razorclaw,
Danny DeVito as Swindle,
Arnold Schwarzenegger as Blitzwing,
Jeff Bridges as Scorponok,
Jean-Claude Van Damme as Bludgeon,
Jeff Foxworthyas Long Haul.

Some actors I don't know to place are
Chuck Norris as either Prow or Smokescreen, Clarence Gilyard as Jazz or Blaster

Just curious as to who you guys and gals would pick if you could have any actor or actress.

I still think George Clooney would have made a good Prime.

Tim Curry is way to big for Transformers, he'd just dominate the show...

Unicron it is then!

And I'm sure we all agree that Unicron is the only character worth bothering with anyway. Autobots? Decepticons? Bah! What we need is loads more Unicron across all TF media...

Rickman and Stone are possible, but a big name like Skywarp as a obscure nobody like Lopez? Never going to happen.

If I had forever to choose from there'd be Tom Baker (Perceptor), Donny MacLeod (potentially Optimus, but maybe Ultra Magnus), Vincent Price (for the helluvit - pick an evil character) and Sean Connery (definitely Optimus).

Oh, sue me. I like nice voices... ;)

Gilbert Gottfried as Starscream. Just to wind up and annoy any Starscream fans out there.

I was in a play once. So therefore, I would choose me voice them all.

If there was another Transformers series...

Post by Omnicrus »

If there was another Transformers series (cartoon or anime) who would you choose as the voice cast. So far I got Fred Tatasciore as Optimus Prime, Snarl, and Ironhide, Steve Blum as Megatron and Shockwave, Mikey Kelley as Hot Shot, Tom Kenny as Starscream, Greg Eagles as Jazz, Jennifer Douillard as Arcee, Lani Minella as Black Arachnia, Eric Kelso (the voice of Kalas from Baten Kaitos) as a human teenager who's a main character, Luci Christian as his love interest, Matthew McGregory as Tidal Wave, if my OC Rmstrong [insert highest rank] was in it he'd be voiced by R. Lee Ermey, Grant James as Vector Prime, Carlos Alazraqui as Cyclonus and that's all I got right now.

To be honest I don't know enough voice-actors.

Besides, you'd need to choice voices depending on peronalities, not voice-actors. And voice-actors are specifically difficult to choose since the good ones have wide ranging works making them difficult to peg into one category, so I couldn't really choose a cast.

I know that Tom Kenny is Starscream now. I just couldn't think of anyone who'd make a good Starscream other than the people who have already voiced him.

I've come up with a few more choices. Eric Vale as Jetfire, I'd like to include Bumblebee but I have no idea for VAs, Dave Wittenberg as Prowl, Frank Welker as Grimlock, and Jim Ward as Swoop. That's as much as I got for now.

I dont really care about voice actors, apart from Peter Cullen reprising his role as Prime in the movies.

The only thing id want from a new series is a semi-decent art style, and not that teen-titan cartoon network american-styled turd of an art style that TFA has given us.

The art isn't that bad, and the stories are really good.

I wold like to see some of the old voice actors return, and maybe some oen like the guy who does Bender's voice in futurama to be Smokescreen.

Also would like to hear your choices in this one:
