    I could always see Cullen playing the role of a Military General who cares much for the lives of the men under his command.

    Or even have him play the Dean of the college Sam is attending, as a no nonsense, serious, and stern man who calls Sam into office after his whole "symbol scribbling/speed reading" event in astronomy class. Or maybe have Frank Welker play that role.

    But if I had to pick, I'd choose Cullen to play as Prime's holographic driver, all decked out in cowboy/truck driver attire he likes to wear. A cowboy hat, blue jeans, and a red plaid shirt, like he did at BotCon a few years ago.

    :rock  On a side note... maybe Cullen should get about 15 seconds of fame!

    Cullen: " My name is Optimus Pr... Oops I mean Peter Cullen!"

    Geekgasm :lolol

    They should have Prime driving along and encounter a toll booth, then he'd have to activate the holo-driver and we'd see Peter Cullen pay for the toll, say something, and drive off.

    Cullen should be Prime's holo-driver. Cullen could pick up the trucks HAM radio, and speak into it "Autobots, Transform, and Roll Out!"
    And then all the autobots drive into battle!

    I think I was the first to bring the question to light in the Bob Orci thread and getting a response from Bob himself.

    It's within the first ten pages of the Bob Orci thread if anyone needs proof.

    Yeah, I'd definitely see Peter Cullen as Optimus Prime's hologram driver. In fact, I could see it happening:

    Random guy: Hey, do I know you from somewhere?
    Optimus Prime: I am Opti-sorry, I'm Peter Cullen. Just another truck driver.

    Cullen has to be Prime's holo-driver. He HAS to be. There is to much awesome involved to be ignored.

    That would be one of the best things to happen to the hard core fans! I would laugh if that happens! And there will only be a little (lot) of people who would get it! Please see that this happens, Bob!

    Not to brag but it was myself that suggested the voice actors get cameos.

    I'd like to see and hear a chase scene too with that screaming 12V-71 Detroit Diesel sound track I found for Prime.
    Having Primes dash guages winding around from the green zones to yellow warning, then red danger zone. Would be a cheap, easy but effective suspense builder too.

    Just for the fun of it. When TF 3 films. I'm going to join the actors guild and try for a 2 second bit part on the edge of a scene in the background.

    Interestingly enough I also grew up on a farm in Canada as Peter Cullen did. I only imitated chicken crowing and moose calls for laughs at parties. Cullen was smart, kept with the sound effects, voices and built a career.

    It'd be cool, imo, if he and the other voice actors for the main group of Autobots got cameos as their bots hologram drivers. Would be awesome to have a little conversastion where the vehicles were just sitting there, and their holograms were talking to each other. Would help save a bit on the visual effects, yet give us more characterization.
