Is it wrong that I'd like to see video of Cullen plying his trade?

Seriously, watching VA's at work is almost as entertaining as the finished product.

Oh for f*ck's sake, he has an opening speech in this one too?

"Finishes 5 minuets later."

Sorry, I had to.

It is my fervent hope that this sequel will be chock full of Prime.

Ah, sweet sweet progress. This makes me happy in a disconnected, remote way, like the thought that somewhere, there's a guy who really deserves one and knows how to drive one, flogging the wits out of a really high-end sports or GT car. You just gotta feel happy that it's happening, even if it has nothing to do with you.

I agree, it would be cool to watch PC do his thing. I'd love to see some of the Pixar movie VA's at work, like Finding Nemo, Cars, and Monsters Inc. It'd be fun.

Being a VA is one of the coolest jobs ever.

Watching VAs on camera do their voices weirds me out...they always looked dubbed.

I saw this great clip of Michael Bell saying in the voice or Raziel from Legacy of Kain, "Then the Elder God had a colostomy, and I said "Eat more yogurt, Elder God."

This news is faked,

more michael bay leakage, like the whole Shia hand injury

Peter Cullen's involvement is the best thing this franchise has going for it. Here's hoping for more Prime screen time in ROTF!!!

Quiet, you. I could watch two-and-a-half hours of a blank screen with Peter Cullen talking as Optimus Prime and be the happiest mofo on the planet.

Hey, I loved Cullen in the movie. He was like the only guy in the whole production who got the tone right.

...I'd actually like to hear Cullen say that. If he goes to Botcon can someone ask him and record him saying that? optimuslaugh2.gif

Come to think of it, there was something from the first movie I wanted to hear Cullen to say, but I don't remember what it was. Shrug.gif

As for the opening speech, I wouldn't be surprised if it was some sort of recap of what happened between the two year gap of the first movie and second.

Heh, two things I like about those "Previously on Battlestar Galactica" bits

1. They have recorded different cast members saying it.
2. They have on several occasions shown scenes that actually weren't "previously on Battlestar Galactica."
Matt Booker
If they're going to do that, they should get the guy from the old g1 episodes to just say, "We now return to The Transformers."

That would be an awesome recap.

I just hope he'll be given better dialogue and not more subpar G1 material.

Seriously "One will stand one will fall?"

I'd walk right off the stage, f&ck the fans.

Peter Cullen sounds more like a huge robot in the real movie, then in the cartoon and cartoon movie. I think he did a great job, and I think this sequal is going to be at the top again! I heard Silverbolt was going to be black. Oh yeah!!! rodimusgrinstatic.gif

I think it's pretty sweet to tell you the truth. He did a great job with his opening intro for Voltron and adding a bit of Voltron to The Transformers never hurt. Some tea with your Gestalt's anyone?
