That's a good question, if one doesn't happen to be an Englishman...

He played Oscar Wilde in Wilde, if you ever saw that. He may have been in a Harry Potter movie, I'm not sure.

O, he was Jeeves in Jeeves and Wooster with Hugh Laurie. He was also in Gosford Park.

He's in lots of stuff "over here", as they say, and he's no Scatman Crothers.

He was the TV show host in V for Vendetta who got beat up for airing a Benny Hill skit.

In addition to the aforementioned Blackadder you neglected to mention the obvious Fry and Laurie!

Here's hoping that if Soundwave is in the next one they can get Stephen Hawking to voice him.

Oh, no need to apologize, everybody makes simple mistakes. It would be down right un-Canadian of me to be upset by your obviously unintentional misinterpritation of where I live.
Ironically enough I watched hockey tonight and ate "I am Canadian" wings. Pretty much just BBQ sauce and maple syrup mixed together over chicken wings. F'n fantastic, but I stereotypically love anything with maple drizzled over it.

Egad, you're right. How could I forget those two? I feel stupid.

Can anyone remember what sort of character Jazz had in the leaked script? Was it on the same level as cartoon Jazz?

Here's a curveball.

I'm dead serious.

Why does Jazz have to be black? Because a black guy did his voice in the show? Because Jazz is a "black" music style? Jazz isn't really anymore.

I say make Ironhide the black guy.

It'll never happen, I know.

Well if we're going that route, why do we need Cullen? Or Welker?

Why does Bumblebee have to be yellow? I've always been partial to Fusia.

How about we give Ratchet a british accent(In have the vague feeling they're gonna do that anyway)

Blaster (Soundblaster was Soundwave's reincarnation when blaster became Twincast) was more of an 80's DJ caricature, similar to Soundwave in Cybertron/Guardian Force. He was voiced by a black voice actor (Buster Jones... the guy who did Black Vulcan for Super Friends) but his character wasn't so much 'the black guy' as Jazz was.

Yeah, I was just thinking, they're too late on the lowrider alt mode. And the rice rocket.

Ironhide'll be the redneck, or at the very least, he'll be the rugged marlboro man of the american heartland, since that's what his alt mode is marketed to.
