we all know that frank welker is the only megatron but still gotta give credit to hugo weaving man for he really gives an intimidating voice for megatron
Frank Welker: Wheezy and raspy in G1, chilling and sinister for kids and adults to hear in Prime David Kaye: Intelligent Hugo Weaving: Savage Corey Burton: Suave
Definitely good comparisons. Really does give different interpretations to the character and feel of Megatron across the different Transformers media. Way I see them: Welker: Gives off a mad, combat-hardened commander type (imho the best interpretation of Megatron.) Kaye: Like you said, more of an intelligent and condescending feel. Weaving: Crazed warlord Burton: More sophisticated, could probably even say "Posh"
Optimus Prime Why are you spamming your crap comments everywhere? Frank Welkers voice is the best, he sounds menacing. In most of your comments, you complain about his old voice. Well, the voice actor is old. And so is Peter Cullen, who also sounds old. And yet, the characters are considered to be ancient in age. You’re complaining for the sake of complaining.
@@shadowofchaos41 I love him, but he's just not Starscream to my eyes. I love Tom Kenny from Animated more, cause Starscream has always been high pitch, and Starscream's character is high pitch, cunning, ruthless and so on. Steven Blum is great and talented actor, but his voice to me sounds more like a mix of Thundercracker or Skywarp, if they were modernized or something like that. I will admit Steve is one of the best Starscream voice actors, but Tom Kenny has always been my favorite ever since I got into the franchise back in 2007. Steve Blum is part of my Top 3. However, he does have something in common with all others including Tom Kenny, none of them can top Chris Latta. The OG Starscream, who unfortunately died of a stroke in 1994. Chris has always been the best in general. He knew how to be both funny and intimidating at the same time, he was always there with this character, even in Toy Commercials and the pilot episode. He just gave the role so much character that it makes me sad that he's been gone for almost 40 years now.
He's like the scariest Megatron. Megatron in Animated is ridiculously powerful, like everytime I see him with the Autobots, I always think they're gonna get killed or something. I do think Animated has the best Megatron and Starscream imo. The basic fact will always be; Animated has the best Blitzwing and scariest Shockwave.
@@vickerandflips8061 Pretty much. However, Season 4 was meant to show Ultra Magnus' funeral, fans debate if Ultra Magnus lived or died, but Season 4 proves it
***** Yeah, WAY more evil! Another thing I liked is how TFP Megatron was not stupid and aware of Starscream's attempts to usurp him. Unlike in G1 where Starscream actually seemed to be right a lot of the time.
I disagree, In G1 almost all the transformers sounded like the machines they were meant to be, and the sound effects were amazing, nowadays they have toned down the voice effects and made em all sound like bad impressions of batman.Watch some more G1, just listening to the transformer talk is fascinating in itself.The sound effects just aren't unique anymore.
Frank Welker in Transformers Prime brought the most intimidating and fear-inducing Megatron to date. seriously, that was just the scariest of ol' Buckethead. Hugo Weaving is a good second. and Clank (David Kaye) voiced Megatron? i did not know that.
@@Mystic-Mango they should have said no to Frank Welker to voice Galvatron in Transformers 4 and then they would have gotten someone else to voice Galvatron who's never been the voice of Galvatron before.
1. Frank Welker's "Prime" voice (G1 is still great, but I love how cunning and powerful Prime's sounds) 2. Fred Tatasciore 3. David Kaye I do like Hugo Weaving, too, as an honorable mention.
My Top 5 1 - Frank Welker (I'm sorry but he IS Megatron) 2 - David Kaye (YEEEEEEESSS) 3 - Fred Tatasciore 4 - Corey Burton 5 - Hugo Weaving All Hail Megatron!
Burton's Megatron is criminally underrated. He doesn't rely on raising his voice nor overt displays of rage to intimidate anyone. His sheer presence alone screams "villain!"
@@calevoid hahah holy crap.. i must've been high when I wrote that 4 years ago! 1 owe Keric2001 an apology it seems. I wish they had used the original voices for the netflix show.
Corey Burton is the most indimidating by far. The others are so full of rage, they're guided by their anger and most of these performances make the great leader of the Decepticons nothing but a brute, which doesn't happen with Corey's Megatron. David Kaye is a close second, as he is the most unique of the bunch.
Uh it's not really their voice that makes their personalities, it's their actions. Also the last time I checked Megatron was supposed to be full of rage, he was supposed to be guided by he's anger, so how come you Don't like him because of that
Corey originally voiced Shockwave. But in my opinion, he did better as Megatron than he did for Shockwave. I liked Shockwave’s prime voice a lot better.
Hugo Weaving is the best, like a lot better than the others, and I don't like the Transformers movies. Except Frank Welker, he was really really good in the 2010 Transformers Prime. In short, those two are the best, I prefer Hugo Weaving though.
I'm going to give it to Fred Tatasciore. He very much has the Frank Welker Vibe but with an appropriately more menacing tone. Hugo Weaving is next being just a monstrous utterly demonic Megatron. I very much love both. But I would prefer more Fred in the future.
MediaMan18 Burton gave me the chills! He is not a man (or robot I should say) you want to mess with! Frank Welker kept working with the Autobots and would fail so many times. Burton never took crap from nobody! He killed Starscream right off the bat, have backup plans for his back up plans, a great monipulator, and just an apsalut badass! He could kick the shit out of G1 Megatron!
In ascending order: 5 = Hugo Weaving; he was ok and could have been higher if he was given more to do. 4 = Fred Tatascoire. 3 = Corey Burton (a very underrated version IMHO). 2 = David Kaye (Yeeessss). 1 = Frank Welker (Still the king; as Nostalgia Chick put it a stone-cold badass).
@@coldman112 Ahaahahahahahahahahaha..... hell no. You can't beat Welker, especially with his later performances. Same goes with David Kaye and Corey Burton.
@@Starsdealer Nope! Hugo Weaving is scary... but that’s about it. Just that. Nothing more, nothing less. The thing is, there’s a reason why there are better Megatrons than Hugo. With Corey Burton, his version is more cold and calculative, and more soft-spoken, which alone makes him unique, but a threat. It’s very rare to see a more calm and calculative Megatron, and I like Burton’s tone because of that. David Kaye is super entertaining as hell, and yet he is better because of one thing: he perfectly balances the theatrics and cruelty of Beast Megatron. And last but not least, Frank Walker. He’s my favorite for good reason: not only he is scary, but he also shows charisma. He shows a lot of range as Megatron, and in The Last Knight, it’s much better than Hugo because Frank’s Megatron a dying old man who doesn’t want to rest until Optimus is dead.
Corey Burton is my favorite Megatron's voice. He sounds like a really smart leader. He's always calm which makes Megatron much more charismatic that if he was aggressive brute.
@@ilikeapples1824 I don't care, You and everyone else need to stop trying to attack Frank Welker for no reason just because you say that Corey Burton is better like for example, "Frank Welker is an old garbage geezer Corey Burton for life". Get it?
JC The Looney Saiyan2002 this guy, did not Attack Frank Welker in any way possible, all he said was that he liked corey burtons better, it’s you that’s trying to create a lie on a person who has something known as an opinion
As great as Frank Welker was, my favorite has to be Corey Burton. His voice is just so freaking chilling...Transformers Animated as a whole was just an amazing show!
+patrick watkins Likewise. My first Transformers series that I watched was Armada, so overtime I think of a Megatron I think of David Kaye providing the voice.
+patrick watkins I loved David Kaye, Frank Welker probably is the best for me, not because of he's the original, but just because of how badass he was in Prime, but Cybertron was one of the first transformers series I watched, and the British accent is a nice touch considering you don't get a lot of voice actors from my country :).
Human followers of the all mighty Deceptions! If you value your existence on the miserable planet you will respond to this and theses following videos of Cybertron's greatest achievements!

Frank Welker will always be the yardstick by which Megatrons are measured, but hats off to David Kaye for doing such an original take that's still so good.
I love how Frank Welker, Corey Burton, David Kaye and Fred Tataiscore represented all of Megatron's individual aspects. Animated Megs represented Megatron's calculated ruthlessness. Prime Megs represents his brutality. Beast Wars Megs represents his charisma and leadership. Cybertron Megs represents his warrior side and authority.
Buddy, you gotta work at having the audio levels for each piece of audio be equal. I'm having to turn the volume up and down because they are individually at different levels.
My top favorites are Animated, War for Cybertron, and the movies. War for Cybertron Megatron is in my opinion the best voice for G1 Megatron, while Animated's voice just feels good for some reason. EDIT: Ohmygosh I forgot about Prime Megatron! He is also the best G1 voice for Megatron.
1. Hugo Weaving (Loved His Megatron voice in TF1, TF2 RotF and TF3 DotM) 2. Frank Welker (liked his Megatron voice in TF5 The Last Knight) 3. Fred Tatasciore (Great Megatron Voice from Fall of Cybertron and War for Cybertron) 4. Corey Burton (nice Megatron voice from Transformers: Animated 2007-2009) 5. David Kaye (a good Megatron voice from Beast Wars and Beast Machines)
Alexander Cook Meh. The best are: 1: Frank Welker 2. Daniel Riordan 3. Fred Tatasciore 4. Hugo Weaving Hugo doesn't sound very Megatron but it's a cool voice nonetheless.
Fair enough, Stephen Fox. I found Riordan cheesy at times, but Tatasciore was solid as Megs. I like Corey Burton for bringing an ice-cold edge to Megatron, while Kaye and his "Yesssss" from Beast Wars is legendary
@@titanstudios2683 yeah, well that's where I disagree there, and Frank Welker is not a younger person anymore, so of course it's gonna sound too elderly to you, but then again that's your opinion, and I got mine, the man is a legend after all, next to Mel Blanc!
Frank Welker and Hugo Weaving. Frank is the OG and so classic and iconic in the role, but I also like how demonic Hugo's Megatron sounds, which fit with the more devilish design he had in the live-action films. Both are excellent and are the gold standard for Megatron's voice.
I gotta say the movie voice is my favorite, it’s more intimidating and fits his character more in my opinion especially in his movie appearance with the sharp teeth, strange hands, and larger stature
As much as I'm a fan of Hugo Weaving's Megatron, I need to bow down to Frank Welker's version from The Last Knight along with his voice of Soundwave from the first series. I don't think one can speak lower than that. Thats scary and bold.
Frank Welker’s performance in Transformers: Prime was by far the best. Hell, EVERY performance in that show was the best those characters have ever gotten. That show was a flawless masterpiece!
Huh. See, somehow I had it in my head that Bayformer Megs was still Frank. Putting aside my myriad gripes with that film franchise, Weaving had some big gravity connectors to fill, and I'd say he did a pretty good job.
My thoughts exactly. If anyone wants proof, have them play the first mission of War for Cybertron and get to the part where Megatron gets the Dark Energon. That shout of I. AM. MEGATRON! will shatter any doubt
If you use Richard Newman, Fred Tatasciore, Tony Gialluca, and Hugo Weaving in order Megatrons voice would go from sophisticated to evil. Starting off as a charming leader eventually showing himself to be the monster he really is.
Frank Welker, no questions ask. I wish he could have been cast for the live-action films. What's interesting is that Corey Burton was the original voice of Shockwave.
Let me assure you that I have absolute 100% respect for the originals but damn, Hugo Weaving sounds fucking menacing as Megatron way more than anyone, yes... including Frank Welker IN MY OPINION! It’s just now whenever I watch G1 Megatron sometimes sounds like a cranky old man when he’s angry, But when Hugo voices Megatron he sounds so tough and evil, you can practically hear the years spent sparring in the pits of Kaon in his hardened voice
