*A.K.A. The Return of Peter Cullen as Optimus Prime*

[dillcnskii]

Could only imagine how this sounded in the theaters for the first time.. sucks that I didn't experience that :(

"And so began the war."

The way he says war is so fucking awesome. There is a hatred in his voice, and an importance to it. The gravelly brutality of what the word means itself comes though.

[MajinZarak]

Casting Peter Cullen back as Optimus was the best thing in this movie.

[eugeo]

The voice is too godly. The music is heavenly. And the scene for this is too good. You can feel the passion, you can feel their heart and the pride in their work taken seriously.

Genesis 1:1 "Before time began, there was... the cube. We know not where it comes from, only that it holds the power to create worlds and fill them with life. That is how our race was born. For a time, we lived in harmony. But like all great power, some wanted it for good, others for evil. And so began the war. A war that ravaged our planet until it was consumed by death, and the Cube was lost to the far reaches of space. We scattered across the galaxy, hoping to find it and rebuild our home. Searching every star, every world. And just when all hope seemed lost, message of a new discovery drew us to an unknown planet called... Earth."

Really want a Cybertron film trilogy with Optimus as the protagonist.

[Thunderbirds]

People asked how did the Bayverse come to be. I have the answer.

A cube

I remember seeing this for the first time in theaters back in 2007, and when I heard Peter Cullen's voice for the first time, it was pure eargasm. And then when I saw it in theaters again for it's 15th anniversary, it was still pure eargasm.

[spartacus]

Before time began, there was The Cube... And before there was The Cube, there were monsters...

[Tulf]

How many of us thought we were looking at Cybertron before the camera zoomed out to show it was cube?

[Mrig]

Peter Cullen. One of the greatest to ever speak into a microphone. I grew up listening to his epic voice. Don LaFontaine was great but Peter is my favorite voice actor of all time. Would love to meet the Man one day...

I remember seeing this with my dad when it first came out. I was only 6 at the time so part of me was worried I wasn't gonna get to see it due to its
PG-13 rating, but my dad was nice enough to "smuggle" me in. It sort of added to the allure of seeing this live action movie with a scandalous (to my six-year old brain) rating. This was my first Michael Bay film and it left a massive impression on me. I can still remember sitting back in that dark theater, in awe of seeing these characters I had gotten to know through previous series come to life. I'll never forget when the credits rolled, there wasn't a single soul in that theater that didn't clap. It was one of those amazing, lightning in a bottle moments you only get to see once in your childhood.

Before time began there was the cube


We not know where it comes from, only that it holds the power to create worlds and fill them with life, that is how our race was born, for a time we lived in a harmony, but like all great power some wanted it for good others for evil, so began the war, a war that ravaged our planet until it was consumed by death and the cube was lost to the far reaches of space we scattered across the galaxy hoping to find it and rebuild our home, searching every star every world, and just when all hope seemed lost, message of a new discovery drew us to an unknown planet called earth.


But we were already to late
