interview with gary chalk

[johnDoe4880]

Gary Chalk gave us his time for an interview and we made the most of it! The veteran actor has lent his talents to so many productions, where could I begin? Okay, I'll give it a shot. Uhh, Freddy Vs. Jason, Dark Angel, Stargate SG1, Beast Wars (hello? Optimus Primal?), Sonic the Hedgehog, Reboot, you know what? I'll just post his imdb link below! So c'mon, genre acting, voice acting, what more do you need? DL! DL!

 

He says he didn't like the michael bay movie.

Other then the movie bashing, good interview.

[Drewbie]

took too long to download. Is there a transcript somewhere?

I'm surprised too. But of course, not everyone liked the movie.

You can just stream it from A3U, no need to download.

He seems like a pretty cool guy and he was, of course, spot-on about the movie.

 

Off that he didn't seem to know that Beast Wars and Beast Machines were separate series, though. He seemed to think that they were just seasons 4 and 5 of Beast Wars.

That could be because, as he mentioned earlier in the interview, in Canada Beast Wars was called Beast Machines, "War" having been deemed "to violent" for the name of a show.

 

So in Canada, and Chalk is Canadian, you had Beast Wars known as Beast Machines, plus the actual show Beast Machines. Two shows, one the sequel to the other, with the same name.

 

EDIT-Just realized you're Canadian. D'oh. Well you shouldha know that :P

[Whisky Tango Foxtrot]

In Canada Beast Wars was called Beasties, actually. Beast Machines' title was left as-is.

o.O

 

Then why do I have vague memories of Beast Wars being called Beast Machines?!?!?!

 

Damn retroactive memory.

[Lord Madhammer]

As with most of the BW/BM actors, they see the whole "Beast" thing as one show since their involvement was in the earlier stages of production. Gary Chalk talking about BM Season 1 as "BW Season 4" makes sense, since all he ever knew was the voice stuff he was doing (with most of the same cast).

 

Anyway, Don Murphy is a chode. Not that that's news.

 

I hope Gary gets well soon. He seems like a cool guy.
