Personally, I love Scottie Ray's portrayal of the shredder. He actually sounds like a real villain.
James Avery, Sr. was good, too.

James Avery for me. I grew up fearing his voice. He will always be shredder to me.

Can't pick, The different Shredder's and not too similar. Avery is perfect for the OT and Ray is great for the NT.

Without a doubt, the original Shredder from the first movie, voiced by David McCharen (other). To me, that's the most sinister voice a villain could have. :shredder:

I can't pick @.@ They equally rock!
I think a good choice for Shredder if he appears in another movie would be Ron Perlman or Clancy Brown. Either one would fit ^^

Both work well.
James Avery does a great job as the comically inept cavalierish Shredder of the OT.
And Scottie Ray is fantastic as the cruel and cunning Oroku Saki/Ch'rell/Shredder of the NT.
And both movie Shredders were very good.

Agreed.
Both VAs were perfect for what they were doing. Perhaps credit is due to the casting. The fun OT suited Avery perfectly and the "darker" current series was perfect for the evil tone in Ray's voice.

James Avery.
Wasn't there a rumour that said that James Avery auditioned for the part of Shredder in the new ninja turtles cartoon?

Other for me. I grew up listening to Avery, but I'd like to see something different done. A much, much more sinister voice for Megatron was used in the Transformers movie than from the OT. Others may not have liked that the original voice actor wasn't used, but If I heard the "movie" voice on the streets I'd fill my shorts:o I'd like to see something similar done for Shredder.
Shredder's voice should make me fill my shorts, too...

Scottie Ray.
I think of his voice when I think Oroku Saki.
I didn't care for his voice in TMNT1 - for a Japanese dude, it was WAY too low and didn't sound right.I know they were going for sinister but...it didnt fit IMO

James Avery. Yeah, Shredder ended up being kind of lame later in the cartoon, but he started out pretty menacing. The OT Shredder had already taken over Bel Air, if it hadn't been for those retched reptiles he would have had NYC too! :shredder:

He does have a fearful voice, he carried his Shredder additude on "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air", especially when Will Smith & Carlton got into trouble.
Funny, I learned about James Avery as Shredder when making a guest appearance on "Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego?"

The Shredder from the first movie. When I think about, he actually sounds alot like Megatron does in the latest Transformers movie.
