That's because they virtually unknowns...hence they don't think it's worth of a PR release.

will they all even have voices? like, frenzy..that will be kinda wierd, and i know scorpy isnt.

*SPOILERS?*

According to the leaked scipt, they use that sound they have used in the trailer.

I know that maybe just cuz they dont have the voices yet, but that seems more realistic to me.

I don't know if it's offical but word has been spreding around that Mr. Smith from the Matrix will be voicing Megatron. (I forgot the actor's real name so I used a character you might be familarwith.

)

Hugo Weaving

But Hugo Weaving is old news. We want to know about the not-so-well-known TF characters.

Hugo Weaving

He will do an amazing job, no doubt.

But Welker should have gotten it, he IS freaking Megatron!

Plus his salary would not be as inflated as Weaving's $20 million a picture average now.

Ok, Ironhide should always be a Texan!!! He cannot be British! As long as it isn't for him, I'd love to see some Good ol' John Bulls have a part in the film. It's always seemed stupid to me that whenever Transformers come to earth, it's always in the States... when have you ever seen Tony Blair or Thatcher greet Optimus Prime after his defeat of Megatron.

Oh yea, because if it happened in Britain we'd actually be able to beat the 'cons WITHOUT the 'bots ^^ The film/series would be over in seconds...

by **Dclone Soundwave** » Mon May 28, 2007 1:19 am

Maybe Cullen did get Ironhide after all. We haven't heard that he got him after saying he didn't. It would be nice, & if Bay didn't want it to be so cartoonyish, he could just rough up Ironhide's voice a bit. But I would like to know about Jazz, Ratchet, & the rest of 'em. I know it's an extremely long shot, but it would be nice to have Bumblebee's voice box fixed at the end, w/Dan Gilvezan providing his voice. Unlikely though. :sad:

by **Saya** » Mon May 28, 2007 6:16 am

I'd assume they're relative nobodies, otherwise there'd be hype. I just hope that Weaving playing Megatron means he'll get more than two lines.

By jo old chap you are jolly right! We'd give those damned old decepticons a right good plundering we wouldnt need no stinking yanks!

Nah..i can imagine Prime scanning a british alt mode...like a london bus...this country sucks.

Also, its an american made film so....yeah.

Anyway, on to the voices...maybe the other bots dont speak, hence no voice actors?

If Mark Ryan's doing the video game voice of Ironhide then I think it's a somewhat reasonable assumption that whomever's doing the film role will also have a British accent (and therefore probably a British chap).

by **Sonray** » Mon May 28, 2007 3:47 pm

Ive never heard of this Mark Ryan guy, so i dont know what he sounds like, but just because hes british that doesnt mean he will have a british accent in the movie, he is an actor afterall and an actor is supposed to be able to do different accents.

Im glad Keith David is Barricade though, he has a great voice!

News Credits: 2 · by **Shadowman** » Mon May 28, 2007 7:15 pm

Here are my picks, I think they're reasonable:

Jazz--Will Smith--Given they have near identical personalities.

Blackout--Steve Blum--because Steve Blum is awesome, and should be in everything.

Bumblebee--If he has lines, Quinton Flynn--Just imagine Raiden's voice on Bumblebee's body. It works!

Ratchet--Cam Clarke--Cam Clarke is also awesome, and should be in everything.

Frenzy--Mark Hamill--Because he looks as crazy as the Joker.
Or Hal Rayle--The voice of Shrapnel, because I can imagine Frenzy talking like Shrapnel.

Brawl--John Cygan--He does the gruff, military types good.

Bonecrusher--David Hayter--Two parts to this:

1. He does a good "mean" voice, and

2. So Bay can say "Hey, look, I got one of the Hayters on this!"

As long as people post topics about who'll be the voice actors, I'll post this.
