The original voice actor from the 80's is doing the voice of Optimus Prime in the upcoming movie. Now if they would only get the original Starscream....

Sadly, Chris Latta died in the mid-90's.

Which Transformer are you?

I'm Tidalwave.

Though on another quiz I scored:
30 Heroicness
42 Evilness
30 Overthrow-osity, and
54 Uber-mayhem!

Oh my god, it turns out that I'm

Megatron.

(maybe that is really no surprise)

Can't wait for the Transformers movie. Glad they picked the original OP voice actor over some big budget screwbody (imagine OP voiced by Keifer Sutherland... {gasp, puke, choke} ).


meanwhile... in some dark demented boardroom...

"yes, you see it will be an instant success if we just add Keifer Sutherland! Then we will remix the music from 24 for the intro and BAM! Fantasy Terror Mayhem! We will make stink loads of cash from the snivelling drool-be-alls in zero seconds flat and send that crappy Pirates sequel back to the depths!!!"

.... uhhh.... not quite....

(I had a funny feeling recently that Dragonlance is going to suck enormous goat gonads [try and say that 8 times fast])

In other news:
- Iraq stands with Iran, Syria on Lebanon
- Iraq descends into civil war
- Hizbollah/Hezzbollah/Hizzbullah (ever notice that Arab terrorist organizations can't figure out how to spell their names? can we say illiteracy much?) claims wider attacks on Israel are forthcoming
- Bush administration officials wiping egg of face for Iraq PM's speech to Congress

(look it all up if you dare)

"Iraqis have tasted freedom, and we will defend it absolutely."

> "the rule of law is supreme"
> "The sergeant of arms will secure order by removing those engaging in disruption" (Note: Heckler is removed from the gallery.)
> "Many individuals are buying products and appliances which they would never have hoped to afford in the past"
> "we will ... lift current restrictions on foreign companies and investors who wish to come to Iraq"
> "civil society institutions ... are increasing in scope and complexity"
> "reestablish a state monopoly on arms"

Mmmm... taste that freedom.

Back on topic:

I am Optimus Prime!

What a wise and clever piece of software.

And what's you beef with Keifer Sutherland?

Unknown said...

Screw Keifer Sutherland man!

I'm personally a big fan of the way in which Iraq stands strong with their terrorist bretheren.

(I was going to praise Allah for bringing civil war to the Iraqi people as they have lusted for, but thought it might be a tick insensitive... oopps, I guess I did it anyway.)


Lord Jim - If you are an "Optimus" and I am a "Megatron" one of us is in big trouble~!

(I'm not serious about all that "damn the Iraq citizens stuff", I was just seeing what it felt like to be to the right of Ann Coulter - and I must say, it is really f**king messed up!)

Unknown said...

Ann Coulter could have a career as a hottie if she kept her maw shut!

ScrewLoose said...

I'm also Megatron... its that damned evil streak.

Unknown said...

That figures hey Screwloose? I guess we are just too opprotunistic or pragmatic to be anybody noble or selfless. I can live with that (I guess that is the pragmatist talking).

Phoenix said...

For what it's worth, I'm Red Alert. Unfortunately I'm not hip with the Transformers - comes from growing up with out a sqwak box :(

Clockwork said...

OP for me. Always been drawn to the knight in shining armour. Jay, you can talk "pragmatist" all day - we all know you and Henry are simply evil bastards who want to take over the world. Remind me of those two mice on Animaniacs (I think).

Peaceful, cooperative, noble - the glorious leaders...this test has Lord Jim and I pegged as well.

Clock - you are part of the evil machinistic system that is destroying the world, just like the rest of us. Enjoy the heroic fantasy though, it is a good one.

Besides, as far as I can tell, the only requirement for being pegged as Megatron is selecting "the entire Appetite for Destruction" album from the music list (everything else there was unbearable!).

Great now we need to find a poll to determine who is Pinky and who is The Brain.

Personally I'm too lazy to take over the world. I'm reasonably satisfied with my island lair in the south pacific. I just need to finish training my army of squirrel minions to defend it.
