This is based on my earlier attempt at making the live action Starscream a bit more "familiar".I was never overly impressed with the way Starscream was portrayed in the live action film, from the general design that looked nothing like Screamer to his lack of dialogue and lack of any character familiar from his old self.Obviously with Chris Latta gone, he couldn't have been in the movie and we could never have the same voice, but while Charlie Adler sounds Starscream-esque in the dubbing theatre, the treatment changed it a bit and needed to be more Latta-esque.So I was wondering what Starscream would've sounded like with a bit more G1 characterisation - giving Adler something to play with - so I've borrowed bits of dialogue from the original series and movie and married it up with Starscream's scenes from the film.I've also thrown in some original sound effects, most noticeably the transforming noise (though with a slightly deeper pitch) and the original Decepticon and Autobot weapons SFX, which I think work quite well and am wondering why they went for new gun sound effects!I would have howled (or squee-ed??) with joy had something like this happened, and I think it shows that with a little bit more effort we really could've gotten a proper Starscream!!Also in the background is Vince DiCola's "Autobot/Decepticon Battle theme", which I think adds to the G1 feel, and also helps covers up the edits!This is the first time I've done something quite as adventurous as this with video, so I hope you enjoy it!!Thanks to Tim Shinn for his version of a movie Starscream in the end slide.
