OKay I love Nolan North:

North compares it to his previous claim to fame: "I would rather be known as Raphael for the rest of my life than Dr. Ramsey from Port Charles, some stupid soap opera."

There's some real pride in that!! Nolan "Raphael" North, butt kicker

That (and the other article linked to it) was great!

I hate that voice actors do NOT get any credit for acting-- this movie was great because the turtles were believeable-- and those four are the reason. It is not just the roof scene that the VAs shine-- the acting IN that scene, as well as others, truly brought it to "life".

*standing ovation*

What kinda ticked me off, end credits...their names are not even the first you see! WTF?!

They were the TALENT...HELLOOOOOO!?!??!?!

What made their interaction so great, they were together recording, makes it all more real. And it damn well did.

Hey!!! Port Charles was not a stupid soap!!

He was also on General Hospital, which is the only soap I watch. Port Charles was the spin-off.

Nolan's gonna be on the new X-Men series soon "Wolverine and the X-men" voicing Cyclops/Scott Summers.

The VA's were great! I especially loved Nolan. VA's are so underrated it's not funny. And I mean VA's not celebrites. And these guys are definately VA's.

(Now I can only pray the Transformers movie has as great a VA cast. Getting Peter Cullen is definately the perfect start though.)

Peter Cullen will probably be the only good voice. And frank Welker if they have enough sense to cast him as Megatron.

So true. Not seeing their names pissed me off immensely...

The 4 of them deserve Annie Awards for voice acting.

And if the Academy gave more recognition to animation, I'd say give the award for Best Actor to the 4 of them.

As an aspiring VA myself, it bothers me to see the TMNT VA's get the short end of the stick. Especially to see their names roll up after the diner cook. I don't care if it's Kevin Smith!

I know, it's disgusting that the name actors, who were the supporting cast, get billed first.

Damn you Warner Bros studio execs.
