Peter Cullen is reprising his role as Optimus Prime in the new live action Transformers Movie. As you can imagine, there was much rejoicing in geeky 80's nostalgia land. If the Michael Bay involvement, weak teaser trailer, or the leaked horrid transformers photos haven't scared you away yet, at least this bit of news gives you something to look forward to in this movie. I for one can't wait for the original Optimus voice to say, "Transform and Roll Out!" next summer.
