Orson Welles' Final Theatrical Line - Death of Unicron: Transformers the Movie 1985

[spainoner]

I GOT 2 SEE THIS WHOLE MOVIE..IT WAS GOOD...DURRING THE TIME ORSON WELLES DID THE VOICE OF UNICRON HE WAS VERY SICK AND HE WAS IN A WHEEL CHAIR..THERE WAS A RHOMOUR ABOUT ORSON WELLES DYING DURRING THE MAKING OF THIS PART WE NOW SEE ON THIS VIDEO

[DibsOnMe]

Well shit, I came in here thinking Orson Welles voiced a dying unicorn. Godamnit.

[MDthornton83]

Yep; this movie was Orson Welles' final role before his death in the mid 1980s.

[FNGLHR]

"I play a big toy who goes around eating smaller toys"

-Orson Welles

How mighty fall... still he did a good job despite hating the job.

[epicbladers1]

Orson Welles didn't even know the name of the character he played in transformers.

[kirant]

@epicbladers1 - To be fair, Welles was a stereotypical Hollywood snob and prima donna in that regard. All he ever said was that he played a toy that squished other toys.

[MDthornton83]

@kirant Regardless of his reluctance to play in this movie, Welles did an awesome job as the voice of Unicron.

[TenWhoWereTaken]

How Citizen Kane should have ended.

[8sasuke8lp8remix8]

The upbeat 80's music sort of takes away from the whole 'character dying' thing...

[Stairmaster9068]

@8sasuke8lp8remix8

it's okay since he's a bad guy

[8sasuke8lp8remix8]

@Stairmaster9068 Oh okay. I didn't know that since I didn't see the original movie. xD haha.

[TiborZutron]

crackly

[zeratul600]

Thumbs up if cracked brought you here!

[rambadibow]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH the french

[SergeantLuke]

Orson Welles plays a lot of characters with epic last words, doesn't he?

[joethetimelord]

With a delivery like that it's a wonder there hasn't been a rumor that Orson Welles died while recording that line.

[themightymegatron]

I'm pretty sure this last line wasn't Welles. It's been stated before that, because Welles died before finishing his lines for the film, Leonard Nimoy had to fill in for some lines. You can pretty clearly hear similarities between Unicron's voice in this last line, and Nimoy's. They used a vocoder to make him sound more like Welles.

[Raphie009]

Wow....I didn't know Unicron was this old.

[AttractiveMeat]

Good God I love Cracked.

[Frusciantefan77]

"You cannot destroy... my... rose-bud..."

[QuicklimeTime]

@Frusciantefan77

That sounds oddly sexual. But I have no idea why, or what it would refer to.

[Madonkadonk]

I honestly think he died around "destroy" the rest of it was just a gas release.

[sevyyves937]

cracked brought me here...

[BananaBoyL337]

@sevyyves937 Same here. Lolz this is some of the worst acting I have seen since the last time I watched the Naruto Dub XD

[WackyMammoth]

@BananaBoyL337 Ok narutard is gAY allso orson was 1 of the best actors you sick freak this is u im saying he sucked but i never had an acting career allso im just a noobtoub bitch with nothing to do but lie 2 my self orson was a beast and ur a terd

[BananaBoyL337]

@WackyMammoth Sarcasm I assume?

[BigDaddyBouncer100]

No I have Amplified his voice and he says "This Time...You Cannot....Destroy......My.....­...Destinnnyyyy"

[Matt0I0Attack]

Litillary

[3dwardXP]

pretty sure he says "Destiny.... you can not.... destroy.... my.... destinaaaaaaaaeee"

but then again i could also be incorrect!

[3dwardXP]

@3dwardXP

nvm just noticed 2 years ago he was corrected!

[98bigbutt]

If he had live,Orson Welles would have been a guest star in the Simpsons.

[98bigbutt]

The funny thing is that it was because of this movie,I knew who Orson Welles was.

[FetaCheese222]

From "Rosebud" to "You cannot destroy me!!!". Quite a career.

[toolem]

I like to imagine that he dropped dead in the booth immediately after delivering this line.

[DireSloth]

Serves him right for F is for Fake >:(

[mattleemattlee123]

Orson Welles was the greatest genius of American stage, radio and screen. Nothing can tarnish that, and just because a guy has to pick up a lousy gig or two to make ends meet means nothing. Other stars were richer, did more movies, got more press...but Orson Welles had the most magnificent voice, the most ponderous gravitas and made the greatest film of all time when he was 24. I'll trade that for all the Charlie Sheens and Tom Cruises in the world.

[Wierdoman900000]

WTF is up with the last desiny he says. DESTINAAAAAAAAAYYYY

[Bobzeaux]

That's right, world. Put him through wine commercials, humiliate him by making him say IN July, have him hock prints, but you CAN'T destroy his destiny.

[Goji73]

Orson Welles really went out with a BANG, didn't he?

[notpodcastmaterial]

R I P CItizen Kane

[Hurricane333]

Was this sequence directed by Paul Mason?

[jeraldr1111]

he sounds like hes incredibly ill while saying the line... he must've died right when he was saying the last word.

[kirant]

@jeraldr1111 - Actually, Welles did die extremely shortly after this. At the same time, he refused to talk about this role (finding it completely degrading to have to voice a cartoon)

[godsmight10]

@kirant The only thing he said was "I play a Big toy that steps on a lot of little toys."

[neilworms]

I have a feeling that his destiny was destroyed long before he said this line.

Am I the only one that also adds to it, I WAS CITIZEN KANE!

[Nightingale2814]

Actually, Welles died during the production, this line was done by Nimoy.

[Grunbeldodd]

@Nightingale2814 I've Heard About This To... But Nearly All Of The Cast And Crew Including Nimoy Himself Have Denied That Welles Didn't Complete His Role...

He Actually Died About 3 Months After He Was Finished... According To Nelson Shin (Director) Anyway...

[aigomar]

Nimoy didn't say that line; Orson Welles did...didn't he?

[jeffpolol]

how unicron die?

[edward18517]

Unicron's body was destroyed by the Matrix (basically the soul of his brother) being released inside of his body.

[DarkPrinceAttacks]

LOL I remember those words...

"Listen me... you can not... destroy... me..."

Rest in pieces, Unicron XD

And rest in peace, Orson Welles :D Awesome voice for this character

[Mrster]

It's "destiny... You cannot destroy... my... Destiny"

[DarkPrinceAttacks]

Are you sure? The spanish traslation says other thing (that I said)

[Mrster]

Oh. Well yeah, I'm pretty sure, and others say it like that too.

[DarkPrinceAttacks]

I hope Unicron will appear in the next Transformers movie :P

[46009]

qué más da lo que diga la traducción, dice lo que te han dicho;

Destiny...

[Scrivener86]

Yeah, you obviously don't remember those words very well.
