Indigogeek Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 This topic comes up every once in a while, and I love to see people opinions. While reading books, comics, etc, what is the voice you picture certain characters having? whether it's a certain accent, or actor, post your thoughts!

ankyfdarkness Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Always fun when this comes along. There are so many head-canons for me it's not even funny.Tahu's and Pohatu's voices from MoL are fine.One would definitely be Clockwerk's voice from the first Sly Cooper game as Teridax. Just sounds perfect when gelled with Teridax's many fantastic lines from Time Trap.I imagine Toa Nuju's voice to be most similar to Booker's from Bioshock Infinite.Antroz's voice is like Master Chief's.There are others, but these are the ones I could recall of the top of my head.

Art Vandelay Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Antroz's voice is like Master Chief's. I've always thought Master Chief's voice would be fitting for Tahu. I could see Antroz having his voice as well though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slifer3000 Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 I can imagine Chris Evans being Tahu for some reason, if he can manage to make it less calm. But not over-done macho testosterone dosing Tahu from MoL. Kopaka could be RDJ. Gali would be Anne Hathaway Quote Knock Knock Who's there Hoff Hoff who Yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuplexBeGreat Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 A while back I went on a spree of researching characters that Bionicle actors had played in other franchises, so now there are certain ideas that I can't get out of my head because those two characters together are just so epic- Teridax has a Russian accent (Ravage), Matau always yells things (in a mean way, not the Woohoo he usually has in canon- I got this idea from a certain meme perpetrated by one of his actor brethern), I always think of Nokama as sounding somewhat... Derpy....Original ideas that just popped up in my head on how they sound? I often go back and reread the ending of Dwellers in Darkness out loud to myself because I really like how Helryx sounds in those quotes with a British accent, to complement Teridax. Vezon I actually don't think of as sounding deranged- to me it seems like it should be something along the lines of G1 Starscream.

Just A Dot Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 (edited) One would definitely be Clockwerk's voice from the first Sly Cooper game as Teridax. Just sounds perfect when gelled with Teridax's many fantastic lines from Time Trap.Since I feel the MoL/LoMN voice was too perfect for Teridax, I always pictured Clockwerk's voice coming out of Miserex. And I had a voice linked up to almost literally every character. Edited July 1, 2013 by Ghabulous Ghoti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkslizer Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 I can't think of an actor, but I imagined Krika as having a hissy, yet crisp British accent. and quiet, of course. Quote Comply. Create. Consume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToaKapura1234 Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Antroz's voice is like Master Chief's. I've always thought Master Chief's voice would be fitting for Tahu. I could see Antroz having his voice as well though. I think it would work best with Kopaka. Although I kind of imagine him with a Spock-esque voice. Quote Want to solve an exciting murder mystery?

The Pyro (From TF2) Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I can't think of an actor, but I imagined Krika as having a hissy, yet crisp British accent. and quiet, of course.I always imagined Krika as sounding quite calm and a bit grating. His laugh was like a shrieking screaming finger-nails on a chalkboard sound that doesn't sound like the traditional evil laugh. I tried thinking of it your way, though, and that sounded pretty right for him also, but it didn't seem to fit with his weird boney appearance. I think (at least in my mind) that that would sound the best pre-Karda Nui. Quote Herro there, person.How are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tahu's Courage Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I could imagine Toa Matau's voice sounding like Ratchet from the R&C video game franchise. That could fit with his character perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zestanor Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 I had this figured out for the Toa Metru: Vakama: movie voiceNokama: movie voiceMatau: Team Four Star GokuNuju: Team Four Star TenshinhanWhenua: Tweaked movie voice (so he doesn't sound deficient)Onewa: movie voice Essentially, if I didn't like their movie voice, they get a new one. So that's only Lewa on the Nuva team. He doesn't get a voice when I read. Same with the Mahri. Quote Has following the story become too complex?

NorikSigma Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I did not think Mata Nui had that movie voice.Artakha and Ignika might sound the same, but Ignika sounds like a twenty-something guy with an uncertainty to him. Sounds like Legolas, maybe?Krika had a slightly hissing ang grating sound, but sounded quite like Antroz to me.Vakama certainly sounded less Italian to me.I'll think of some more soon..

Lenny7092 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I also would imagine Makuta Teridax as having either his movie voice, Trigon's voice from the Teen Titans TV series, some other deep-toned villainous voices by Kevin Micheal Richardson, Hugo Weaving's voice, Frank Welker's voice, or David Kyae's voice.

SarracenianKaijin Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 (edited) I always thought the 2001 version of Makuta sounded like Sutekh, from Doctor Who.I still stand by my statement that is what he should have been like. Everything else from the movie's pretty appropriate though. Except Jaller, though Jaller was overall pretty lame in that movie.

Isamu Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 As far as accents go, I'd say that Le-Matoran already have their own accent/dialect. But I mean, c'mon, it's Scott Mcneil as Tahu in MoL, how can one not like Scott Mcneil? Maybe I'd have it be a little less gruff or something like that for his Mata form.

JaredNuva Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 come to think of it, I would have loved for Turaga Vakama to have the voice of Morgan Freeman and Tahu to have the voice of Gerard Butler (Leonidas). Also I would have liked for Lewa to have the voice of Michael Jackson... just the voice not the personality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALVIS Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 (edited) I always thought the 2001 version of Makuta sounded like Sutekh, from Doctor Who.I still stand by my statement that is what he should have been like. I watched that episode for the first time recently, and I will readily admit that Sutekh was giving some serious Makuta vibes. I still support the Lee Tockar voice, though. Can't beat it in my book. While we're on the subject of Doctor Who, I've always heard Vezon's ramblings in a voice comparable to the Eleventh Doctor's, but just a little higher-pitched. And Tren Krom is clearly House, from The Doctor's Wife (although, to be frank, that also sounds exactly like my Makuta voice). The rest of the characters' voices have just been variations of my own thought-voice, so it's hard to nail them down specifically.

renaldohoek Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 I always thought Nathan Fillion could pull off a good Pohatu. Alan Tudyk could probably do Lewa, too, if he put some sort of accent to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toa Of Anarchy Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Any individual voice I had for any character was effectivly killed while listening to Greg Farshtey's narrations. Seriously though, have often imagined some of the Onu-Matoran with a heavy black accent (no rascist intentions.) Also, I think that most of the actors in the movies did quite well, except for Toa Vakama. Quote BZPRPG CharactersWant to play all the Lego games?

Jamags Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 (edited) I always imagined Jaller's voice as deeper and more serious-sounding than it was in MoL. I imagine Axonn sounding like Batman from the DCAU. I also imagine Nuparu sounding like Jaller did in MoL. :-P EDIT: I also would imagine Makuta Teridax as having either his movie voice, Trigon's voice from the Teen Titans TV series, some other deep-toned villainous voices by Kevin Micheal Richardson, Hugo Weaving's voice, Frank Welker's voice, or David Kyae's voice.

NorikSigma Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 (edited) Frank Welker was the voice of cartoon Megatron.Makuta's movie voice was perfect, and Kopaka's movie voice was quite apt too.I thought Brutaka would sound like Prince Arthas from WoW. Before Much King transformation.TSO.. hmm... maybe a little less heavy than Makuta's voice.
