Wow, next thing you'll know is that the Wolverine movie won't be terrible.

Soundwave was always one of my favorites. I'll see this film just to hear Welker as him again.

your just hearing about this now? it was announced like a month or so ago.

And this rings up the question of where does Optimus Prime's trailer go?!

they'd better damn well have him voice soundwave after he got passed over for megatron

I read in USA Today that Soundwave is a big Satellite.
Personally I think that is genius. At least he's still a communications expert.

But for everything they do right, they do something so annoying that I want to gouge my eyes out. See Jetfire.

Hmm...transforming into a satellite is sounds pretty gay and boring - hopefully that's not his alternate form. Be interesting to see how they do him - surely he can't be a tapedeck.

PS - this movie has Megan Fox's boobs wobbling round a lot in slow mo - trillions of people will see it regardless.

"transforming into a satellite is sounds pretty gay"

Yeah. I mean, what is it with those homos and their constant floating about in close-earth orbit?!

You need new words, mate.

"And this rings up the question of where does Optimus Prime's trailer go?!"

Sub-space.

Soundwave, in the very first episode of the series, whilst on Cybertron, transforms into a Cybertronian communications tower, which is roughly equivalent to a satellite dish.

So it's stupid, but at least it's not preposterous.
