Should Frank Welker have voiced Megatron?

You're right he doesn't, it sounds awesome though! Here's the clip for those who have yet to see it.

Still have to get the game and watch the film.

I think Hugo Weaving did a good job but I think Frank Welker should have voiced him, well if he had more lines than what he had.

I really didn't like Frank Welker's voice from the video game as much as I liked Weaving's in the movie

watching the movie i knew it was Hugo but as i watched Megatron speak and such, it just didn't sound like him at all lol but then i noticed the subtleties in how he talks and you hear that mr smith thing lol

I say not Welker, because his voice wouldn't have worked in the film.

Welker sounds a bit different than before too.

I played the game, and I loved Welker in it, I wish he would've done the film as well.

actual i thought weaving did a good job but welver was way better, but they thought welver's voicing didn't sound right for it 🙁

you can't really tell it's hugo... but i heard a bit of agent smith in his intonation...

Spoiler:
"is it fear or courage that compells you?"

"this is my world!"

totally smith when he said those lines...

As did Optimus, but he still made it in both the film and the game.

THATs the line where his smith comes in!! haha

and to Scythe, Cullen still sounds a bit more Prime just deeper and lower

Yeah but Prime's look didn't change, and Welker sounds a lot older than cullen.

I wish I had knew who did the voicing in the Movie so that I could have paid attention and caught those subtle cues of Smith breaking through.

I'm sure with all the computer effects available that Welker wouldn't have sounded that bad.

Anata wa wakarimasu ka.....

i kinda heard something familiar about megraton's voice the first time i saw it. and by the time i watched the 2nd time, i knew it was hugo and there was definitely some smith in there...

dude, frank for the win, he IS MEGATRON!
Sorry hugo didnt do it for me

Sorry I really did love the old school Megatron sound but after hearing Welker in the Video Game. I'm going to say they made the right decision. His voice seemed old, raspy, and just plain tired.

He did a good job for the game but I don't think his voice would have done well on the bigscreen.

Cullen has aged, but think did alright for the guy who voiced Eeyore from Winnie The Pooh.

Also, Welker voiced George from Curious George in 2004...

Welker all the way for me.

No other Megatron comes close for me, Im afraid....

What did you think of Leonard Nemoy as Galvatron?
