Something I would like to see what everybody thought about...

Who would like to see Optimus Prime in the movie as a cameo, if the guy went through all the trouble of changing his name. Don might at least have him do a cameo and say one line in the movie... after all he is a fire fighter and I am sure they can work that in...

Thoughts? Comments? Concerns?

I just visited his website. He's pretty cool, it would be interesting

Do you know he is a TFans member? Mr. Optimus Prime, anyway I really dont think he would do it.

asks him

Now that would be interesting to see.

isn't he still in Iraq at the moment?

He IS a member of this board (we shared PMs back and forth for a little while a while back), but I haven't seen him for a while...he really is a nice guy, fun to talk to...but then, if you get your name changed legally to Optimus Prime, you've gotta love 'im. I saw his article in Wizard and everything.

Sorry...my all too brief brush with 'celebrities'...*sighs*

YOU GUYS ARE TOO MUCH!!!

IT"S HIM!!!!!!!

were not worthy!!
still, it would be cool if ya were in the movie.. but not as a redshirt who get's written off as spikes cousin or something

I have to admit, that would be pretty cool to see

Would you do it if it were offered to you, MR Optimus Prime?

No Offense to anyone but damn!!!! i cant believe someone would ACTUALLY change their name to a Transformer's.

Well, he got mega press from it. Right about the time his reserve unit was called up.

All the Internet news outlets were like "Watch out, Saddam! We're sending Optimus Prime over to kick your butt!"

imagine the end of movie credits..
blahblah as Optimus Prime
Optimus Prime as so-and-so

BY Primus yet I would, but I'm just an ordinary joe. What I really want is to be able to fly out there and just be an extra in the background. Besides, I get the feeling that Don isn't real keen on my whole name thing.

Wow, that is one dedicated TFan, top props to him ffor having the courage to do something that outragous. As for a movie cameo, works for me but just don't have em go by Optimus Prime in the movie. It would be like having Wolverine walk up to Stan Lee and say "Hey aren't you Stan lee the guy who wites comics. Can I have your autograph?" Lame, not? IMO I think it would be almost funny if you sat through the credits at the end to see "Firefighter#3 - Optimus Prime. Most people would probably be like . Hence the joke.
