Burden – Short sci-fi film featuring the voice behind Optimus Prime

Posted by LiveFor on January 22, 2010

Here is a trailer for a nice looking sci-fi short called Burden by Michael David Lynch that has been doing quite well on the festival circuit.

Starring Grant Weiss and Peter Cullen – yep the guy who voiced Optimus Prime in the cartoons and recent films.

Ordered to evacuate Earth on the eve of an Alien invasion, a lone hero named Calik must decide between his sworn duty to flee, or defy his instructions, and battle the imminent threat and attempt to save our world.

Check out the official site.

Soundwave has his voice

Posted by LiveFor on April 29, 2009

Back in March I mentioned that Michael Bay wanted Frank Welker to voice Soundwave in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. This was exciting news as Welker voiced Soundwave in the original cartoon. Now UGO have the following piece of news from an interview with Roberto Orci.

Jordan Hoffman: Who’s voicing Soundwave in Transformers?
Roberto Orci: Welker.
Jordan Hoffman: That’s official?
Roberto Orci: I think so.
Jordan Hoffman: Uh oh.
Roberto Orci: Might be something I just told you for the first time, but I think so.
Jordan Hoffman: Good to know

That is pretty much, almost a definite then. Welker will join Peter Cullen who is forever more the voice of Optimus Prime.

All in all the next Transformers is shaping up rather well.

How do you like them apples?

Soundwave may have his voice

Posted by LiveFor on March 10, 2009

Michael Bay did the right thing getting Peter Cullen to voice Optimus Prime in the first Transformers film. Cullen did the voice of Prime in the original cartoon.

Megatron was voice by Frank Welker in the cartoon, but by Hugo Weaving in the film. However, Welker also did the voice of Soundwave – the Decepticon who could change into a cassette player and who deployed Ravage and the other tape shaped Decepticons.

Well now Michael Bay knows what the fans want and he is seeing if he can get Welker to voice Soundwave in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. On his own official forum, Michael Bay wrote that, “I think I’m going to pursue Frank on Soundwave.” This is great news as Soundwave always had that cool monotone voice thing going on.

How do you feel about the news? Was Soundwave your favourite or did you think he had the crappest disguise?
