Personally, I'm more of a Conan O'Brien fan. Letterman has gotten bitter and unfunny in his old age.

The rabbi thing is funny considering Optimus is a Jew.

Letterman's Top 10 List hasn't been funny since "Before time began."

"My parents wanted me to be a Rabbi"?...lots of people know that whether he was intended to be this way or not, Prime is associated as being a Jesus figure. Typical Letterman to make fun of Christians/a lot of conservatives. Personally if I heard someone say that on the street (besides a robot) I would think that's pretty damn cool since it takes a lot of work to accomplish.

And I agree with you grif, Peter Cullen should've been in the studio instead.

I don't know, I think that was damn funny. I love how proud e looked when he announced his mother thought that he should have become a rabbi.

Letterman is a piece of shit, mostly because he has never been funny, and I hate that little bastard in the band he talks to. Both of them suck horribly at life.

How do you know that it wasnt Peter Cullen himself who was at the Letterman Show?
It sounds pretty dead on as Peter Cullens Voice?

By the way I was disappointed by TF2 ROTF
Great Action sequences and Effects.......
Shitty Storyline, bad acting and elementry school jokes...and a bit cheesy at times. If it wasnt for the action sequences the TF would have been a sitting duck. Bay did a great job on the 1st TF movie which makes me wonder was TF1 a fluke, did Bay get lucky or WTF? Becasue TF2 did not have the magic of TF1.

"Im actually surprised Bay didn't have Optimus say some of those things in the movie!"

If that is Peter Cullen doing the voice in that clip, I am shocked. He won't even do Prime for Robot Chicken because he said he respects the character to much. I'm pretty sure if Bay had Prime saying anything like that, Cullen would have walked out.

Are you all dumb, seriously? Everyone has been shitting on the 'storyline' for RotF. It is a story about [frick]ing robots that turn into cars. Did you [frick]ing want Schindler's List? Hell, even the original cartoons were nothing more then commercials for toys. Just enjoy that action and don't worry about story with these movies. Nerds..
