OK - one of my pet peeve's in the new Transformer's movie is that BumbleBee all of a sudden does not have a voice again.
He had to speak through radio and songs in the 1st movie then at the end was given James Earl Jones' voice, and now inexplicably can only speak through the radio again. They gave a really lame excuse as to why this was so, but it didn't really fly.
Incidentally I like BumbleBee speaking through the radio much better - he has more personality this way.
But one thing that really annoyed me was: why in the workd would they give such a hot car like Bee the voice of James Earl Jones? I mean Bee has attitude. He "lubricated" the agent for Pete's sake.
JEJ is a regal voice - he can play a god or a king. It would be like giving Bee Sir Anthony Hopkins or Ian McKellan's voice. They just don't fit the personality.
See, I'm thinking if Bee has to have a voice, give him someone like Samuel L. Jackson, Ice T. or Vin Diesel - a voice with Attitude!
Who do you guys think should be the voice of BumbleBee?
I don't know who it should be but I know who it should NOT be--and that is the regal James Earl Jones. What a silly thing they did.
