Sam's voice is perfect for many roles, but I just don't see it coming from a Transformer.
Reeeeeally? I had no idea. You mean Sam Elliott isn't the guy who used to sell Quaker oats, starred in Our House, the Ewoks movies, and was the oldest-looking guy in Cocoon despite being 20 or so years younger than the rest of the cast? You mean Sam Elliott isn't the guy who went on an oatmeal-fueled rampage in River City and writes editorials in opposition to laws on cock-fighting?
Whaaaaaat?

MCD was supposed to be in the movei He had a falling out with Bay and left
wonder why
The usual reason is schedualing conflicts, and I assume that is the reason Michael Clarke Duncan left.
The other reason is either being an annoying actor, or creative differences with the director. Since filming hadn't begun, and neither had time to happen, we can rule this out.
Creative conflicts. MCD apparently really wanted to be in a Transformers movie because he's a fan of the property and was set to play a role as a Navy Seal or some other character, but he thought the character as Bay pictured it was ridiculous and would be a blackmark on his credits and opted not to pursue it after all. Then the papers caught on, declared it was because of some kind of feud, and MCD came-out and set the record straight.
Of course, it was possibly just lip-service, but I'm not going to assume to know about Duncan's personal relationship with Bay.
