No.... Friggin'.... Way.....

If Shockwave REALLY is in Prime's future... so help me GOD, they better use Corey Burton. YOU CAN'T HAVE SHOCKWAVE WITHOUT THE BURTON! :michaelbay:

That kinda sounds like what I did when some chick flashed me. 8-}

DISCLAIMER: Innocent teens were not exposed to flashing. This was all a joke, never happened. Actually, yeah it did. But I didn't have my cell phone. But that's okay, they didn't look to good anyway. :SICK:

To be precise, at the end of Shockwave's video montage. Brief scene synopsis from what I recall: Starscream is being confronted by Arcee and Cliffjumper by the looks of it. Starscream turns away from the Autobots and says (if memory serves right) "... Say hello... To Shockwave." The camera then switches to Shockwave's head and zooms out, revealing his full body. The clip then fades and ends. Possible flashback leading into more (regarding Cliffjumper)?

Almost everyone including myself went nuts with cheering.

And you can't have Shockwave without travelling back to Cybertron.

I doubt we'll see Corey Burton reprise the role. If I remember correctly, he said he didn't want to do it anymore, and this was around the time of DOTM. We thought David Warner was going to play him, because Burton had based Shockwave's voice off of him.

No problem.

And yeah, it was COMPLETELY unexpected. I thought he would just have another quote/audio and video clip like everyone else did. But no, THIS. >:D

Could it have something to do with the messy split between Cartoon Network and Hasbro when Animated ended? I never did hear the full story on that. Introducing Shockwave without Burton would be yet another way in which Prime has rehashed something from Animated with inferior results, so it actually does seem kind of appropriate. Not that Shockwave won't be an awesome addition to Prime, of course.

Corey Burton isn't interested in "mega-budget movie enterprise involvement", didn't say anything about voicing TFs in general:
