    I love these commercials. Yeah, a lot of shitty stuff happens in the world, but it's still awesome.

    I wasted 34 seconds of my Saturday just to hear Optimus Prime say "Boom-de-yada Boom-de-yada".

    Great commercial but prime looked way out of place as others have said...

    Nothing to write home about...

    Ok, so is it bad as a Transformers fan to get a bigger geek tingle from the LHC bit than Prime?

    I, too, love the mountains and the sun so bright and the crustaceans and the stars at night and-

    Prime was just a bonus, though. I love these commercials.

    I love how the mere mention of transformers out of the standard norm makes everyone moister then a towelette!

    /Agree with Sarcasm

    It blows my mind that so many people are so easily impressed by 2 seconds of recycled footage from the 2007 movie that was shown a zillion times in the original trailers.

    Just another TF related video really.

    That was random and...I don't know what to say. I like that Prime is appearing in so many different places. He's getting cemented into popular culture. But the average person probably has no idea about the Hasbro/Discovery joint venture, so is this their way of introducing it to the public? Rather subtle.

    And, that didn't sound like Cullen at all. It sounded to me like Jesse Ventura, former governor of the great state of Minnesota.

    The Commercial is cool looking, fun and has got everything from Discovery channel, but what has got OP to do with Discovery Channel... or Transformers. On another note... I don't think it's Peter Cullen doing the Voice.

    I've fallen in love with this advert... cross promotion works! Optimus loves the whole world! Now I want him to hum it in TF3!
