Favorite Voice Actor for the TMNT
 

Based on all the clips we've seen, who is your favorite actor for the new turtles? While I like all the new voices, Sean Astin's Raphael is what stood out to me the most. I like that he makes Raph sound younger here than 2k3 Raph.:tsmile:

Fave VA for the new turtles?? You mean besides Rob Paulsen?? :P

I've honestly enjoyed everyone's voicework so far.

But if I had to choose, I'd go with Jason Biggs. Rob Paulson's a little too predictable of a choice (though I do see his appeal).

They are all amazing, but Greg Cipes- he steals the show. Never have I heard a more perfect Mikey!:tgrin:

It's hard to choose which voice actor is my favorite... Because they are all spot on!
What's amazing is that I was quite suspicious of the voice actors, especially Sean Astin and that guy from American Pie (sorry, too lazy to look him up), but I was willing to give the show a chance. I kept up to date with Rob Paulsen's posts on Facebook, eventually seeing Sean Astin in a recording booth and doing some lines... And I have to say I was very impressed. Acting and voice acting are way different despite some similarities, and you have to approach both in different ways. So props to actors doing voice acting!
... Sorry, I still can't choose. I truly love them all. XD
Aside from that, was I the only one who got really suspicious regarding actors becoming voice actors, especially after the arrogant dumbass Chris Rock and his famous "I got $1 million for three lines, voice acting's the easiest job, blah-blah-blah"? I know this seems a little off topic, but since we are talking about some voice actors who started out as actors, might as well discuss a little 'bout that.

Wow, too f*cking lazy to scroll a few screens up or even read other posts. You must be a Goddamned slob.

Like you don't know. :D

I like how people have all complained about Rob probably not being the best casting choice for Donny, yet he's somewhat leading the poll. This is a vote for who you think is best suited for these current turtles, who really fits their character most. Idiots.

That aside, Cipes. His Mikey is so new, fresh, energetic. Love it.

I agree with these comments.:D It was such a great idea to have Cipes as Mikey on the show.

Cipes is a great Mikey. I can get with that. but my bias is showing. :D

I want to see lots of Donatello-Michelangelo teamup episodes. Rob Paulsen is a blast from the 80s past, but Cipes finally integrates my love of the DC Animated Universe with my obsessive Turtles fandom. The best of both worlds!

Me, a Goddamned slob? :tgrin:How did you know?!?!:tgrin:

Dude, I'm lazy when I wanna be. :twink:

Anyway, Jason Biggs was an unexpected, but good choice for Leo's role. I like how he sounds so far, and can't wait to hear more.

I want to say Rob Paulsen because Donnie is my favorite and Rob is awesome, but I'm voting Sean Astin, because he was in The Lord of the Rings. Period. Plus, his voice seems refreshing for Raphael.

I'm gonna say Rob Paulsen by default because, other than Greg Cipes, I haven't seen the Sean or Jason in voice over roles that I imediately recognise.

Sorry I didn't see the list of actors on the top I chose Cory Feldman then when I scrolled up I saw he wasn't an option I tried to delete this post but no can do. I still think the voice actors from the first movie were the best out of every incarnation of the TMNT.

I'm torn between Paulson and Cipes. I never cared for Paulson's Raph, but I think he fits Don perfectly. Cipes is great as Mikey, though.

Astin's more sedate Raph is a nice change of pace too, as opposed to the sort of grumbling "Wolverine" take that's been done on him in the past.

Sure, Rob Paulsen is older, but I really enjoy his Talkin' Toons podcast so I had to vote for him, even if shades of OT Raph appear. Greg Cipes is second, followed by Astin, though there are definitely better Leos than Biggs.

My first inclination was Sean Astin, but I need to hear more of him as Raph before I can say that with 100% certainty. I went with Jason Biggs. He has a kind of self-assured, big brotherish way about him that comes through in his voice that I think is perfect for Leo.

I agree. The reason why I like Biggs' voice is because he has that deeper tone like a big brother who is self-assured.:tsmile: Plus, his reminds me of the James Arnold Taylor voice but better.:tcool:

Jason Biggs was very much out of left field, and while it seemed peculiar to say the least, I wasn't particularly worried about it. Even so, I thought he'd be bland and not too standout-ish. When I think about it in relation to this poll, I realise that he is kind of the one to stand out. I like his portrayal of Leonardo so far, so I voted for him, even if my absolute favourite may change once I watch the show in its full form.
