who would you want to voice the new "Bay" turtles?

[Plasticplayhouse]

i would love to have the original voice actors from the original TMNT movie reprise their rolls. that (imo) by far was the best michaelangelo EVER.

[The Stryker]

What bay turtles? Is Michael Bay suddenly directing the movie now or something or are you just being dumb?

Zac Efron for Leonardo. Always and forever.

Donald Faison as Michelangelo also.

[Koi]

I think by god you know what he means, no need to be a giant turd in every thread.

There is already like 5 of these threads by the way plasticplayhouse. :) Just look around a little and I am sure you can find one.

[Candy Kappa]

Stop calling it the Bay movie...

[TurtleMaster4]

Hate to play the bad guy here, but please stop calling them the bay turtles. He's only producing!

[Andrew NDB]

I think all four should be voiced by Viacom financiers. It's only fitting.

[Cure]

Only dumb people still call it "Bay" turtles.

[Powder]

Donald Faison as Michelangelo also.

Oh my god, I'd love that.

[Jephael]

I dunno, I'd rather he played Raphael or Donatello. I don't think he'd make a good Mikey.

[Mr.Turtle]

i havent seen one trailer of the movie yet...

[Jephael]

Uh, that's because it hasn't even been filmed yet. The script will probably be stuck in developmental hell for the next couple of years then creative limbo for a few months.

[Mr.Turtle]

i wanna c if im interested in the movie 1st.

[Jester]

By the time they release a trailer, they should have the Turtles cast...*sigh*

[Mr.Turtle]

they can make a trailer with footage n background music 1st...

[Jephael]

Are you on crack or something?! They need to film the movie first, then make a trailer! That's usually how it works!!! :trolleye:

[Jester]

Some times they'll release teasers before much has been shot...but those tell you nothing about the story, so....yeah.

[Mr.Turtle]

anyhow...i hope they use the same voice panel in the last movie.

[Bauer536]

I agree with you about the "Bay" turtles. He's not directing the film, so we shouldn't really call them the Bay turtles. They should be called the 2k14 film turtles.:tsmile:

Leonardo - I've just decided. Joseph Gordon-Levitt could be good as the leader.

Donatello - Matthew Gray Gubler from Criminal Minds as the brains would be perfect.

Michelangelo - Wow. Donald Faison? Now that's something. Have we thought of Neil Patrick Harris? He could work.

Raphael - That's a hard one. Maybe someone like a young Bruce Willis. I'm having a hard time with that one.

[Mr.Turtle]

maybe they will postpone again next year...

[Plasticplayhouse]

For the love of God, I know Bay is not directing the movie. I referenced his name for the simple fact he is involved with it. And just by his name being attached to this film, it has (from day one) had a negative stigma to it. I wrote the title with a bit of sarcasm, that’s why his name is in parenthesis. The point of the question is simple, "who do you want to have voice the new turtles". So if you're going to bother typing something, answer the question with an intelligent answer or move on to another thread.

[Donnie]

Piss off...

Seriously. You all knew damn well what Plastic meant by "Bay Turtles", no matter how untrue it was. You'd rather waste your own time and the time of those reading with your nonsense band-wagon hate posts instead of actually contributing to the thread.

As for me, I would be thrilled to see the original movie 1 cast return for the film, although I know that isn't happening. I would, at the least, love to see Robbie Rist as Michelangelo again as he was *thee* Michelangelo in my opinion. Sad that it probably won't happen due to Rist's outrage at Bay's alien comment. Rist aside, I honestly think (and it's been suggested here before) that Justin Timberlake would make a great Michelangelo.

I still like Jim Parsons as Donatello - if he tuned the "robot" pronunciation down, he'd be a good sounding Donnie.

I could totally support Zac Efron as Leonardo.

Concerning Raphael, I really don't have anybody in mind. I'd prefer to stick to the Brooklyn-ilk, but with Astin's Raph taking center stage by the time the movie hits theaters maybe we won't see that again realized.

Says the person who doesn't know the difference between parentheses and quotation marks. Very intelligent!

Piss off...

Haha, no. Nice try, though.

[Mr.Turtle]

i thought bay is back too frm the 1st sight of the title...

[Plasticplayhouse]

lol, you got me there. i forgot what i had used. still, no need to be a tool.

[Raph_tha_Dude]

I'm lazy and don't feel like looking these names up so...


Michelangelo- movie 1.

Donatello- 2k3

Leonardo- 2k3

Raphael- movie 1.


Option 2 movie 1 voices for all 4

[The Stryker]

Why? Why use the same voices? That's boring. You're boring everybody!

[Mr.Turtle]

i think the voices frm the last movie r good enough.

[Mr.Turtle]

oh ho someones cranky.

[KROW]

Leonardo - Seth Green

Donatello - David Hyde Pierce

Raphael - Joe Mantegna

Michelangelo - Jason Mewes

[Mr.Turtle]

?? wut happend to the post before me?...

[Leonardo87]

I could see Sam Worthington either do Raph or Leo's voice. For Donnie I would choose Jim Parsons. Not quite sure for Mikey; I would love to see Robbie Rist reprise but after his anger towards what happened; who knows if he is willing.

[Slap-Happy]

i thought bay is back too frm the 1st sight of the title...

He was never going to direct. How is he "back"?

[Plasticplayhouse]

Smart thinking, I could totally see that happening.

[Mr.Turtle]

yea that's why it confused me when i 1st saw the title...

[Raph_tha_Dude]

Random names that I don't really mean for the turtles are:

Leonardo DiCaprio/Tom Cruise-Leonardo

That McLovin kid from Superbad/Ashton Kutcher- Mikey

Andre' "3000" Benjamin- Donatello

Vin Diesel/Mark Whalberg - Raphael

[Sage Ninja]

ugh, no ashton kutcher for Mikey, please.

[shezcrafti]

For Raphael --

Is anyone here a Veronica Mars fan or familiar with the show? There's a guy on there, Francis Capra (who I'm not really familiar with beyond that show) who plays the obligatory tough guy character of Eli "Weevil" Navarro. He's got the voice, the swagger and the attitude.

Check him out:

onkpyeNIYys

[shezcrafti]

Leonardo - Seth Green

Donatello - David Hyde Pierce

Raphael - Joe Mantegna

Michelangelo - Jason Mewes

Great picks!

[Raph_tha_Dude]

ugh, no ashton kutcher for Mikey, please.

Yeah, if you notice those are names I don't really mean.

Thread needed a bump.

[zkarlette]

Leonardo - Seth Green

Donatello - David Hyde Pierce

Raphael - Joe Mantegna

Michelangelo - Jason Mewes

I believe this is pretty close.

[Mr.Turtle]

leo is nothing like Seth Green at all.

David Hyde Pierce is a bit too old now too, so does Joe Mantegna.


Jason Mewes is probably a decent choice.

[Jephael]

David Hyde Pierce is a bit too old now.

I could see him playing Vernon.

[Mr.Turtle]

the "bay" turtle does not come with Vernon, sir.

[Jephael]

How do you know? Does Michael Bay call you personally from his condo in Fort Laudredale?

[Jester]

We don't know what the "Bay" Turtles "come with" yet, sir....

[Mr.Turtle]

yea but we can guess a lil bit based on logic and common sense, sir.

[Jephael]

This is Michael Bay we're talking about though. Logic and common sense went out the window the minute he set foot on the project!

[Logan]

I don't want any well-known actors doing the voices for the Turtles, as I think it would take me out of the "reality" of the film. I just feel that as soon as I recognized the actor I would immediately say, "That guy!" Not sure if that makes any sense to you guys or not.

[Raph_tha_Dude]

Yep, makes perfect sense to me. It's what I've thought every time I've heard the new Leo talk. All I can think about is American Pie.

[The Stryker]

That sounds like your own little personal problem. If you can't get over a certain actor even if they aren't doing their usual schtick AT ALL, you probably need to stop watching movies and tv entirely.

[Raph_tha_Dude]

Who are you talking to?

[Genesis]

That sounds like your own little personal problem. If you can't get over a certain actor even if they aren't doing their usual schtick AT ALL, you probably need to stop watching movies and tv entirely.

You know, if you make a good point but word it in an abrasive fashion, you completely mask what you're trying to get across, no matter how good a point I think you were trying to make.

[Mr.Turtle]

well as long as Jason Biggs keeps his jokes to himself i'm ok with that. it's a big challenge for him, after all, to play such a disciplined and serious character.

[The Stryker]

You! Dingus!

Here's the thing. I don't do the internet back and forth bull****. My opinion on whether or not I think of a certain movie or not when I hear an actor's voice don't make a world of difference to you. What I eat, don't make you s***! Maybe instead of me stop watching movies and tv, you should stop breathing. Even if it is "my personal problem" you have your own little problem of running your mouth off with smart *** comments like you're so great. I'm not going to keep arguing with you over dumb s***. Anything you say to me after this is not relevant to me at all.

Whoa whoa whoa.....are you implying that I'm not great? Because....man...that ain't right.

Just saying. If it wasn't announced that it was Jason Biggs nobody would know that it was him. But now we got lump heads complaining that American Pie is getting into their ninja turtles. C'mon now.

Are you taken out of every movie just because it may have an actor that appeared in something else first?

[Cure]

You responded to Stryker then to me. You do.

All four have done voice-acting before, they'd do it on the cheap, and they'll love the experience. As for the age thing, it's harder to determine by voice and is rarely affected. Maurice LaMarche and Peter Cullen are good examples.

[Raph_tha_Dude]

You responded to Stryker then to me. You do.

So you understand what I meant by back and forth, I responded to him once, not arguing anymore. It's not back and forth. The two of us now are starting to go back and forth, so I'm done arguing with you as well.

[Cure]

Hahaha, way to prove me more and more right.

[Logan]

To quote Michael Keaton in The Other Guys

"Shake your dicks. This pissing contest is over."

Really, fellas, keep it on topic.

if they use actors to do it it will be more on the cheap.

[Logan]

The problem is that most voice actors, at least for animation, don't always transition well onto the big screen. Stylistically, voice acting tends to be more exaggerated for the sake of the medium. It would be akin to using all stage actors in a movie. The performance wouldn't benefit the material, because they don't mesh together. It's not that animation, radio, or the stage don't have subtlety in them, but it's a different kind of subtlety.

[Koi]

David Wain.... somewhere. I just love the guy's voice.

[Genesis]

Jeff Anderson as Michelangelo? Eh? Yes?

[KROW]

Jeff Anderson as Michelangelo? Eh? Yes?

Randall? He sounds more like Donatello to me with that detached and smarmy tone that can make an impact when unleashed. That one line in Clerks where he says, "Shut the f**k up, junkie!" -- just replace "junkie" with "Mikey."

[Genesis]

That's just because he always sounds so chillaxed. If he amped up the energy, I think he'd make for a surprisingly good Mike. Well, I guess not surprising to me. I suppose I could hear him as Don, too.

And that Randal only has one L... Jus' sayin'.

[KROW]

Sorry to bump but :
Michelangelo- Mikey Kelley

Donatello- Sam Regal

Leonardo- James Arnold Taylor

Raphael- MEEEEE!!!! or Rob Paulsen, Sean Astin, Frank Frankson or Sean Schemmell

In a perfect world, this is what I would want:

Leonardo - Joesph Gordon-Levitt
Raphael - Jensen Ackles
Michelangelo - Caleb Landry Jones
Donatello - Edward Norton
