Think there's any chance of Optimus Prime singing "The End of an Act" from Team America if enough people vote for it? :D

J, that's disgusting. Your peter's probably my least favorite.
I'm glad to see Frank Welker's actually interested in playing it.

I'm just pleased that the original prime, that I knew and grew up with is in the "groundbreaking" movie. Even if the movie sucks, I think Pete's voice will make it a whole lot better. To get Pete and Frank would make it worthwhile period.

J, I suppose someone has to love your peter. Just be sure it's none of us.
3 movies eh? Must have faith in the movie. Wish the fans could say the same, but we need some solid news. At least Mr Welker is being given chance to audition. Hope they let him in.

J, that was TMI...we didn't need to hear that.
I hope this turns out more like X-men than Fantastic Four, although from what I'm hearing FF4 II is sounding better than the first one (and Jessica Alba in tights is ALWAYS welcome). I have faith that things will turn out well. The sequels will probably improve on the first one as the characters get deeper and newer ones (Grimlock, me hope) make their way in.
