EYE love Transformers! Sorry, I do like Transformers though. I own the older movie- set in 2005.

Hory Crap! Are you serious! A live action Transformers movie! Oh my, I think I'm hyperventilating, this is amazing. Woohaa! Heh heh, wow... there is a god. That looks awesome.

The film's official site is live as well, though right now it's just the poster image, a "sign here for updates", and a mysterious countdown to something almost a month from now.

Maybe a countdown to a teaser trailer? One can only hope.
I only worry about the voices, are they getting the voice actors from the original cartoons series?
I can't imagine Optimus, Blur, Grimlock, Megatron, Soundwave, or Starscream (cobra commander!) as being voiced by anyone else.

Duh, I thought I had read it was supposed to be Prime.
Lyrhawn, you're absolutely right. Except the part about Blur. He needed to die. Horribly. So any voice is fine, as long as it's silenced. Posts: 1069 | Registered: Feb 2005

The voices of the Transformers have yet to be disclosed. Human cast members can be viewed at the IMDB entry.

It's rumored that both Superman Returns and Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest may have a Transformers movie "announcement" teaser attached.

I have the original cartoon movie on VHS, and the second movie on my computer along with bits and pieces of the first season. I'd love to buy the two seasons that are out of Transformers on DVD, but they are charging a ridiculous sum for them. Or at least they were last time I bothered to look.
Thanks for the info Puffy!

Yep, I bought all the season DVDs (ORIGINAL Transformers ONLY) a while ago. Glad I did then instead of waiting till I had almost no money.

Well, if Starscream is in it, he'll have to be voiced by someone else, since Chris Latta is dead.
I suspect none of the originals will be used, studio decisions being what they are. You would think they'd at least get Peter Cullen and Frank Welker if no one else.

I remember reading that they were going to at least test the original voice actors to see if they still sounded good.

That has to be my favorite set of lines from the movie (with the favorite of those being the bad comedy quip). Leonard Nimoy as Galvatron was an inspired choice. Too bad the TV Galvatron sounded like he had a permanent wedgie.

Lyr, as I am also used to the old 80's car styles being used as the characters, I'm finding it hard to picture one of today's cars being a transformer. They are so small these days. How 'bout trucks?
