It's a bunch of famous voice actors reading Star Wars in-character. What more excuse do you need?

Why shouldn't it be? It's made up to 80% of TF voice actors, some still active, features at least one TF Ironhide (haven't seen the whole thing yet) which makes this more in common with Transformers than Paramount delaying Gi Joe Retaliation, which we also posted.
Plus, it's awesome.

Well for one the voice actors in question are quite apparently not just known for their work in Transformers. And secondly, the topic has nothing to do with Transformers outside of those actors. Wasn't Ryan was trying to keep non-official TF news off the front page?

I know they're not primarily known for their TF work, but that doesn't take away the fact that 80% of them have worked in Transformers, are still popular amongst TF fans, oh and then there is the use of Movie Ironhide's voice in the radio play which I repeat makes it more valid to this site than the Gi Joe movie.

It's TF related.
Let's not have ANOTHER discussion about what should and should not be newsed. There's another thread for that.

Which we also posted due to who it's from.
Which is also why this is posted under "people news", as in news concerning "Transformers celebrities" and the like, we also post whenever one of our "celebrities" had an accident or start a project that is of interest to people even if it's not the least bit TF related, simply due to the interest our fandom has in these people and want to be keep up to date on them, but we won't cover their projects the same way we do their TF related work, which is why you cant find anything else concerning Armarauders on here except that the project has now started.
Also, my F**KING God, I'm the freaking news mod here, I've been doing this job for almost 5 years. Trust me I know what's news and what isn't.
Oh yea, it's best we keep to what Burn said and keep on topic.

Go off topic in this thread again after I told you not to and say hello to a nice shiney warning.
That goes for everyone else as well. If people feel the need to discuss what should and shouldn't be newsed on this site, discuss it here.
