Was it simply because he admired what he stood for? I've heard multiple different interpretations, some much more outlandish than others...

I think besides shockwave he was the only other con megatron trusted. I also can't remember megatron treating soundwave badly either, so his competence might have earned him a bit of respect, which might explain his attitude.

now the thing that got me was when starscream threw megatron off astrostrain in the movie how come sound didn't stop starscream

1. well he did have to look out for himself.

2. plus being outnumbered as he was can you blame him.

3. he's a con. as trustworthy as he may have been, as loyal as he was, he's a con.

Maybe Megatron was a pimp. Things might have gone on....off screen.

I agree, I think Soundwave was a much more logical choice for second in command over Starscream, but that's another topic entirely. Was Soundwave one of the first to join the 'cons? I can't remember if he fought i the gladiatorial arenas or not.

It gives him a very distinct personality, unlike Starscream who was a traitor and a complete idiot. Every evil team needs two bad guys like this.

What became of soundwave after Transfromers: the movie?

Soundwave, like the others, was forced to relocate to the burned-out planet Chaar, where he existed on the brink of death.

After the return of Galvatron, Soundwave was still in his position, just with less screentime.

Soundwave and Blaster's rivalry was explored in the Headmasters cartoon; Soundwave became Soundblaster later on.
