What is your favorite Michelangelo voice actor of all time? - Page 2

RaphAndDonnie · 02-05-2013, 02:12 PM

I'm pretty much just digging Cipes at the moment. I haven't watched much 2k3, TNM and I havent seen the 2k7 movie so I can't really judge Grayson, Morrow or Kelley. I kind of like Townsend and Rist but eh, I still voted for Cipes :3

Rist, hands down.

If Mirage Comic Mikey had a voice, I think it'd be Rist.

Indubitably!

He already did it was Bradford Cameron.

Greg Cripes and the sweet and innocent bubbly Mike...even if he says really dumb things a lot of the times; the voice acting is done really well.

Most of the "Surfer Dude" Mike voices are either a little annoying to me, or a lot annoying.

On the Valentine's episode of the Middle, one of Mike's employees is played by Greg Cipes. Wonder if he & Atticus Shafer ever met, since he does Fish Hooks (*Fish Hooks*).

Greg Cipes is killing it(in a good way). I find myself smiling like a kid when I hear him make certain noises or say certain things!

This is a tough choice for me, but in the end, I think I have to go with Rist. He was able to sell a Mikey that hit a lot more chords than most incarnations got to. He got to be funny, and did great; he got to be angry and ready to kick butt, and aced that; he even got to experience some emotional turmoil (mostly in 3 though), and did great at that too. He is without a doubt the definitive Michelangelo for me.

After that...I'd probably have to go with Cipes, simply because he's doing an amazing job thus far too. He's just awesome.

From there, it'd fall to Townsend Coleman next. He does a great job and is the iconic version of the character, but overall the voice is a little too much of a caricature in retrospect. Mikey Kelly would be next, as I feel his voice was kind of a more real take on Townsend's style, but it lacked a certain pizzazz in comparison too. Wayne Grayson would be next, as I think he did a great job too but just doesn't stand out to me compared to the others, and that leaves poor Kirby Morrow at the bottom of the barrel.

Rist kicked shell.

Gonstead · 02-16-2013, 06:39 PM

Gonna have to go with Wayne Grayson. I find his performance as Mikey really enjoyable.

Stormtroopeuse · 02-16-2013, 06:50 PM

Gwahhh, I've always watched the TMNT shows and movies in French when I was younger since I didn't understand English at all!
Anyway, the only versions I listened in English were the 2k3 (recently) and the 2012.
I think Greg Cipes voice really has a teenager voice feeling, however my vote is going to Wayne Grayson, love that goofy and not annoying voice

Townsend Coleman will always be the Mikey for me.

Tuxedo Moroboshi · 02-19-2013, 07:05 AM

While I can understand him not being on the poll due to only ever having voiced him once (in Turtles Forever), I'd have to go with Bradford Cameron as my favorite. He sounds more natural to me as opposed to just an archetype, and that really appealed to me.

Well, to be fair -- it was cobbled together from a hodgepodge of masking tape, and pieces of crudely forged tin and other metals on account of it being crushed in the first one.

Heather Breckel · 02-20-2013, 09:21 AM

I really like Greg's, but I had to go with Robbie. While Townsend is the voice I know best from my childhood, I don't like it quite as much as an adult. I'm kind of meh on Wayne's version, to me it sounded like he was trying to be Townsend almost.

I always felt Wayne was trying to be like Robbie Rist.

LeoNerdo · 02-20-2013, 01:07 PM

Townsend Coleman. No contest for me.

*Shark_Blade* · 02-20-2013, 04:21 PM

Greg Cipes for sure.

And it reminds me of Beast Boy occasionally, which is rad.

*Slade* · 02-20-2013, 05:29 PM

Robbie Rist. "Pizza dudes got 30 seconds."

Red-eyed Jaguar · 02-20-2013, 06:23 PM

Ahh..even so I would always go for the OT-choice..this Time I had to make an Exception and went for Cipes. He just makes a great Mikey in my Eyes.
