Steve Blum was great as Starscream in Transformers Prime. he was both funny and diabolical, especially in the clipshow before the 2 part Season 2 finale.
Joshua Rosengarten Imagine Megatron asking Starscream to open a Space Bridge portal. I think it would go a little bit like this, "Starscream, open a portal." "No." STARSCREAM!"

agreed, but while tf1 Starscream was awesome and badass, he wasn’t /Starscream/ enough. Starscream was always this scheming and slithery sort of character. although i really loved his voice in the first one, he sounded so robotic and unique.
Hail and Farewell, Chris Latta. Your incredible voicework will ALWAYS be remembered for so many characters you did. As for me, STARSCREAM and COBRA COMMANDER will be the voices NO ONE ELSE But Chriss Latta could ever do justice.
+SUPERSPORTS Agreed. While I've enjoyed both of the "Comparing the Voices" of the StarScream characters' voices, there is relatively very little comparison: There are "some mighty fine clones" out there, namely that "Dr. Smooth" guy that made those infamous old school mid '80s cartoon parodies on UA-cam years ago. But yeah, the late/great Chris Latta was pretty much the definitive voice for him, such as Frank Welker was the only Sound Wave (ect).
Tbh, in the 2010 animation transformers prime, all the voices were amazing. The fact that they got Optimus's real voice actor from the movies was even better. And I personally love Steve Blum voicing starscream
I was never born during the orginal but my sad did show them to me on UA-cam when I was super young (before the movie trailers and stuff came out) so I honestly like Chris latta the best, may he rest in peace.
G1, TFP and WFC/FOC are my favourites for all Transformer characters. Those sold it to me, especially TFP (except for soundwave, which the WFC/FOC version i adore most)
Whoever voiced him in the 2007 live action movie is the best. Starscream sounded menacing and awesomely robotic, I wish they kept that voice for the rest of the movies
My favorite would have to be Chris Latta. He’s voice was the original and gave so much of Starscream’s character in the G1 series. It will always be my favorite.
+Adam Besley So it goes like this in ascending order 6 = Sam Rigel. 5 = Charlie Adler. 4 = Tom Kenny. 3 = Chris Latta. 2 = Steve Blum. 1 = Michael Dobson.
My personal favorite is definitely Michael Dobson, since I’ve begun scooping up transformers comics to feed my Starscream hyperfixation that rears its head now and then, that’s the voice that comes to mind when I read his lines. However, the speech patterns and intonations I tend to attribute to him align much closer to that of Steve Blum and Tom Kenny, because they have such a fantastic way of delivering their lines- and I’m much more familiar with their Starscreams than Armada+. Merging these different portrayals in my brain is satisfying However, the OG VA for Starscream- even though I didn’t grow up watching the first generation at all, there’s something about that voice that makes me smile to hear it. He did so good!
1 Steve blum: he will always be starscream 2 Michael Dobson: he brought us the saddest moment of the whole unicron trilogy 3 Sam rigel: yes that's my only reason 4 Chris latta: he is memorable but his voice is just ridiculous 5 Tom Kenny: he sounds like the ice king
Chris Latta is the one I grew up with, so for me he is always how Starscream should sound. I thought the voice in Transformers: Devastation was pretty good though.
1. Chris Latta (he set the paths for many Starscreams after him and the ruggedness in his voice always stuck out to me 2. Charlie Adler (as I did grow up with the bay films I have grown to love this voice and he seemed so weak yet so intimidating at the same time and I loved it) 3. Doug Parker (he did a great impression of Chris Latta in BW and his treachery also carried over in Dougs voice) 4. Steve Blum (as I did also grow up with TF:P this one stuck out to me, it had the slithery sound of what Starscream is and it showcased just how much of a traitor he is) 5. Sam Rigel (his voice just felt so smooth for such a rugged character and it worked out ok)
Steve Blum and Sam Riegal are my faves. It's not that the others are bad, as '84 Starscream is my second fave, but these two have different, yet effective approaches that make him all the more spine-chilling!
Chris Latta was THE MAN. His original interpretation of Starscream and Cobra Commander was that of a psychotic, which casting directors and us original fans appear to have agreed fit those roles perfectly. After Latta's death the role had to be recast for any subsequent incarnations, and based on the included samples I feel that Doug Parker did the best in keeping with Latta's original conception, with Tom Kenny coming in as a close second. I've always personally felt that other performances have always felt like completely new interpretations, which I cannot rightfully criticize, but I do enjoy them less. Although I do find Steve Blum's take interesting. Just like new lead vocalists in popular bands, voice actors have a tough time trying and carry the torch after the original leaves or passes away.
I searched this because I could’ve sworn the 2010 show was Steve Blum who voiced Ares from god of war and I was right because starscream had the almost exact voice tone to Ares.
As far as the whole Latta vs Blum dichotomy goes, I would say that Latta's Starscream doesn't just sound different from Blum's but is, in fact, an entirely different character. Someone said Blum sounded like a perfectly diabolical schemer and was, thus, the best Starscream. The problem is that Starscream was never supposed to be diabolical. He was a know-nothing, whiny, incompetent, sycophantic boot-licker that, generally, only tried to take power when Megatron was beaten, missing, or otherwise disabled (and failed every single time). Besides screwing up every mission he was given, all Starscream ever really did was get screamed at and bitch-slapped each episode. Rather than being a diabolical schemer, Starscream was really a kind of bitchy submissive to a very abusive boyfriend named Megatron. Armed with that knowledge, you should re-listen to the Latta voice and realize how perfect it was.
Steve Blum was great as Starscream in Transformers Prime. he was both funny and diabolical, especially in the clipshow before the 2 part Season 2 finale.
Agreed
kingofmonsters14 agreed
kingofmonsters14 I agree
Agreed
steve blum man. just... Steve Blum. he's too awesome
Starscream the Inheritor is now his current title because of Steve Blum voicing him.
kabob 007 nice
Joshua Rosengarten Imagine Megatron asking Starscream to open a Space Bridge portal. I think it would go a little bit like this, "Starscream, open a portal." "No." STARSCREAM!"
Agreed
Nou
Steven Blum is the best Starscream voice, followed by Chris Latta and Tom Kenny.
+Alexander Cook lol, Chris Latta WAS Starscream
+Turdman12 Agreed, but Blum had a more refined edge to him. Doesn't mean I like Latta's work though.
Tom Kenny's Starscream voice just sounds like Spongebob trying to be evil
Two words: Scanlan Shorthalt
👍
Am I the only 1 who liked Sam Rigel's portrayal of Starscream in the War for Cybertron games? I thought he was pretty good and funny too lol
RandomBlackGamer I love it too!
Nope
I thought it was good too, but i dont understand why Steve Blum didnt play him since its in the aligned continuity
Nade Coles Yeah I was kinda cooler with him than Sam.
RBG!
Rip cris latte the decepticon leader for 30 seconds
BRAWL ANIMATION STUDIOS Died 30 times, that's more than Megatron or Optimus Prime
Megatron? Is that you?
@@patinthehat617 here's a hint
Such Bad comedy
Latte
GO STEVE BLUM. I think he's puts all the starscreams into one voice! The deep vibration yet the slightly squeaking voice. Just perfect!
It just sounds the same as all his characters.
Michael Dobson is a bit underrated in my opinion. He has fantastic emotional range as Starscream.

***** do Shockwave and Jazz
Working on Shockwave as we speak, might be awhile before it gets on UA-cam though
Finally I get to see Chris Latta's face
Charlie adler is the best voice of starscream
Steve Blum and Michael Dobson are my favorites!
starscreams from the first transformers movie is my favorite
Skirmixstudios i agree for some reason he sounded weird in the rest lie he was an igor. In the first he was just as threatening as Megatron
agreed, but while tf1 Starscream was awesome and badass, he wasn’t /Starscream/ enough. Starscream was always this scheming and slithery sort of character. although i really loved his voice in the first one, he sounded so robotic and unique.
Charlie Adlers Starscream in the first Transfomers movie has the best voice in my opinion. He sounded much more powerful and less like a coward.
Yes. Yes. Yes
Yeah but his voice is meant to be high pitched
@@stacchk64dta37
Fuck that. I'm tired of Stascream being a pussy just because of his G1 incarnation.
@@truexenith8596 exactly bro
@@truexenith8596 Right 😂
Still Chris Latta! That Cobra Commander-Starscream voice rules!
Well he technically just wins by default since it's the root of starscream voice's
Nah Steve blun is the true Starscream
My favorites
Michael Dobson (specifically Armada)
Chris Latta
Steve Blum
Tom Kenny
Doug Parker
RIP Chris Latta
TheNewEmphinix he will live in peace he's in the new life world
Hail and Farewell, Chris Latta. Your incredible voicework will ALWAYS be remembered for so many characters you did. As for me, STARSCREAM and COBRA COMMANDER will be the voices NO ONE ELSE But Chriss Latta could ever do justice.
There was only ONE Starscream and his name was Chris Latta RIP
Same here like this comment if u vote starscream for leader
Yeah T-T
indeed! however, i loved the character development of Dobson's Armada Starscream
+SUPERSPORTS Agreed. While I've enjoyed both of the "Comparing the Voices" of the StarScream characters' voices, there is relatively very little comparison: There are "some mighty fine clones" out there, namely that "Dr. Smooth" guy that made those infamous old school mid '80s cartoon parodies on UA-cam years ago.

SUPERSPORTS Chris Latta was the best voice actor for Star-scream R.I.P🙏🏻🙏🏻Transformers was the best movie best of him❤️
Tbh, in the 2010 animation transformers prime, all the voices were amazing. The fact that they got Optimus's real voice actor from the movies was even better. And I personally love Steve Blum voicing starscream
Luna Ress agree!
All Starscream voice actors' throats must hurt after all that screaming, especially 0:31
3:15 best voice line in my opinion
Daniel Ross also better voice for Bayverse Starscream
I like how Charlie Adler played two wormy cronies to an evil robotic dictator-first Snively Robotnik, and now Starscream.
He also voiced the Decepticon, Trigger Happy, in the G1 Mini-series with the Headmasters and Targetmasters.
Aw man, that’s hard to choose a favourite when so many of them are so great.
Michael Dobson was the best, just underestimated
I noticed that some voice actors who voiced Starscream also voiced Cobra Commander.
awesome.
5 Charlie Adler
4 Steve Blum
3 Michael Dobson
2 Chris Latta
1 Sam Riegel
I was never born during the orginal but my sad did show them to me on UA-cam when I was super young (before the movie trailers and stuff came out) so I honestly like Chris latta the best, may he rest in peace.
I love both Armada and War for Cybertron...I can't decide!
I love Steve Blum's version, but the original just has so much energy to it that you cant help but have fun listening to him.
Maybe it's because he's the version I grew up with, but for me Dobson wins.
2.28 😍😍👌 Steve! I waited all the video for it! Yes! The one and only Commander Starscream ahahha
1. Dobson
2. Blum
3. Rigel
4. Adler
Latta doesn't count, he's G1 and he's the original.
well latta wins by default, so that wouldn't make him count right?
G1, TFP and WFC/FOC are my favourites for all Transformer characters.
Those sold it to me, especially TFP (except for soundwave, which the WFC/FOC version i adore most)
Whoever voiced him in the 2007 live action movie is the best. Starscream sounded menacing and awesomely robotic, I wish they kept that voice for the rest of the movies
2:27 ELIPHAS OPEN THE PORTAL!
Starscream also happened to be voiced by MLP voice actor: Michael Dobson
My favorite would have to be Chris Latta. He’s voice was the original and gave so much of Starscream’s character in the G1 series. It will always be my favorite.
RIP Chris Latta. You WERE Starscream and Cobra Commander!
Chris latta was the best
As much as I love Chris Latta for setting the bar for this role I have to say my favourite is Michael Dobson with Steve Blum a close second.
+Adam Besley So it goes like this in ascending order
6 = Sam Rigel.
5 = Charlie Adler.
4 = Tom Kenny.
3 = Chris Latta.
2 = Steve Blum.
1 = Michael Dobson.
I pick Micheal Dobson; he had so much character development, and he sounded so much like Scott McNeil's Dinobot.
Chris Latta is the original, and is an amazing Starscream, but in my opinion Michael Dobson's version is the best. I liked Steve Blum's too.
My personal favorite is definitely Michael Dobson, since I’ve begun scooping up transformers comics to feed my Starscream hyperfixation that rears its head now and then, that’s the voice that comes to mind when I read his lines. However, the speech patterns and intonations I tend to attribute to him align much closer to that of Steve Blum and Tom Kenny, because they have such a fantastic way of delivering their lines- and I’m much more familiar with their Starscreams than Armada+. Merging these different portrayals in my brain is satisfying
However, the OG VA for Starscream- even though I didn’t grow up watching the first generation at all, there’s something about that voice that makes me smile to hear it. He did so good!
🌹chris latta [RIP]🌹, Doug parker, michael dobson, Tom kenny, charlie adler, Patrick hallahan and Steven blum👏👏👏👏
I grew up with Michael Dobson's (Armada) Starscream but I have love for Steve Blum Screamer XD
Tom Kenny and Steve Blum's are my favorite.
1. Steve Blum
2. Tom Kenny
3. Sam Riegel
4. Patrick Callahan
5. Chris Latta
1 Steve blum: he will always be starscream
2 Michael Dobson: he brought us the saddest moment of the whole unicron trilogy
3 Sam rigel: yes that's my only reason
4 Chris latta: he is memorable but his voice is just ridiculous
5 Tom Kenny: he sounds like the ice king
Michael Dobson ⭐🎆⭐
Steve Blum and Michael Dobson are my favourites.
OG Starscream and Prime are definitely the best
Chris Latta is the one I grew up with, so for me he is always how Starscream should sound. I thought the voice in Transformers: Devastation was pretty good though.
charlie adler is my fav starscream va, as a kid I grew up watching the michael bay transformer films and it's my fav franchise of all time
Steve Blum + Starscream = PURE AWESOMENESS!!!
3:18 The 1st 2007 version is my favorite. That voice is so unique to me.
Fav Starscream(s): Chris Latta, Michael Dobson, Tom Kenny, Charlie Adler, Steve Blum & Sam Riegel
Steven Blum, Tom Kenny, and Michael Dobson.
1. Chris Latta (he set the paths for many Starscreams after him and the ruggedness in his voice always stuck out to me
2. Charlie Adler (as I did grow up with the bay films I have grown to love this voice and he seemed so weak yet so intimidating at the same time and I loved it)
3. Doug Parker (he did a great impression of Chris Latta in BW and his treachery also carried over in Dougs voice)
4. Steve Blum (as I did also grow up with TF:P this one stuck out to me, it had the slithery sound of what Starscream is and it showcased just how much of a traitor he is)
5. Sam Rigel (his voice just felt so smooth for such a rugged character and it worked out ok)
Latta is Starscream. There are no others.
What about megatron
owen the Master Welker is Megatron.
Steve Blum is the Perfect Starscream! But I also liked Charlie Alder voice too and Chris Latta's voice is silly but he was perfect for the time.
CHRIS LATTA WILL ALWAYS BE MY FAV!!!
my favorite Starscream voice has to be Tom Kenny because he did a great job voice acting for Starscream from Transformers Animated
Starscream AYYYYEEEEEEEEEE
love starscream hes always been a backstabbing jet bot with that high pitched voice. i think hes been in every transformer show
My top 3
1. Chris Latta
2. Tom Kenny
3. Steve Blum
Can you imagine if the Starscreams from G1, Animated, Prime and War for Cyberton all met up? It'd be a disaster.
CHRIS LATTA... .NO CONTEST... NUMBER ONE
Chris Latta, Tom Kenny, Steve Blum and Sam Rigel are my favourites
1. Steve Blum
2. Tom Kenny
3. Michael Dobson
Michael dobson is the best starscream
I liked Charlie's voice actually (only for the 5 seconds in total he spoke in the first Transformers movie).
I actually really like Sam Rigel’s version.
Charlie adlers bayformers 1 voice is my favorite, seeing starscream as a badass rather than a coward is way more satisfying
I think Steve Blum is best voice
Man, so many of the subsequent Starscream voice actors patterned their performances off Chris Latta's G1 voice!
Oh god! That SpongeBob's voice is Starscream's voice too!!! :l
you know he has a name and he has ton more voices than just spingebill
PaulineAria 2003 don't forget Adventure Times Ice King
Steve blum and tom kenny are my personal favorite, most likely because animated and prime were the transformers shows i grew up on
Steve Blum and Sam Riegal are my faves. It's not that the others are bad, as '84 Starscream is my second fave, but these two have different, yet effective approaches that make him all the more spine-chilling!
1.Chris Latta(Legendary you will be in our memories)
2.Steve Blum(Fantastic)
3.Tom Kenny(Amazing)
4.Sam Rigel(Awesome)

Just like new lead vocalists in popular bands, voice actors have a tough time trying and carry the torch after the original leaves or passes away.
I just finessed transformers prime on netflix and starscream was one of the best characters followed by arcee
I know the starscream from bayformers wasn't the real voice but I do think in the first transformers movie his voice sounded badass
Charlie Alder, Steve Blum and Chris Latta (RIP)
SCREAMER SENPAI
ARMANDA SCREAMER SENPAI
Nyess
I like how Steve Blum give Starscream a slight British accent.
I searched this because I could’ve sworn the 2010 show was Steve Blum who voiced Ares from god of war and I was right because starscream had the almost exact voice tone to Ares.
I'd like to see a voice comparison for Thundercracker.
Chris Latta and Doug Parker sound so similar i thought beast wars hired his g1 voice actor when i first heard him
I love Sam Rigel’s voice
Sam Rigel's Voice Just makes me think of The Amazing Spider-Man Games.But Steve Blum is On point
Chris Latta got me interested in cartoons and voice acting
I can't stop hearing ice king, when i listen to Tom Kenny.
Chris Latta is the voice I grew up with, and the Starscream I will always remember. Cobra!!! Err...
I always thought Tom Kenny was Starscream in the Unicron Trilogy. Didn't realize it was Michael Dobson.
Put Michael Dobson as Darksteel and Daniel Ross as Sky-Lynx.
1-Chris Latta
2-Steve Blum
3-Charlie Adler
4-Michael Dubson
5-Sam Rigel
Steve Blum: Starscream
Tom Kenny: Skywarp
Michael Dobson: Ramjet
Jack Merluzzi: Sunstorm
Matt Hetherington: Thundercracker
You know if he uses the voice he uses for Doctor Octopus, I'd give Tom Kenny another shot as Starscream.
chris latta ! one and only ....
My favorite Starscream actors are Chris Latta, Patrick Hallahan, Steve Blum, Sam Rigel and Charlie Adler
Chris Latta....the best!!! RIP
As far as the whole Latta vs Blum dichotomy goes, I would say that Latta's Starscream doesn't just sound different from Blum's but is, in fact, an entirely different character.

yea starscream was just a jealous backstabber. i dont think he was brilliant just covered in jealously to take the throne when megatron is beat down.
And that’s why I absolutely love Blum’s Starscream. He can be diabolical while also be the screechy G1 Starscream.
Honestly Riegel sounds like he's trying to sound like Dobson.
