ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!

Just caught this on Channel 10, trying to find an online version now. The Top Ten tonight was "Things that sound cool when spoken by a giant robot". ILM animated Prime to present it, and Peter Cullen did the voice. Stoked I caught it, as I was about to turn off the tv and head to bed.

"Man, do I love me some 'taters." :p

It was a bit lame in the comedy but the CGI was nice for such a short segment.

However it is clear that Letterman didn't like it. He may have seen the movie (;

It's the typical Top Ten - it's usually #9 or #10 that's the funniest and the rest are crap.

I did like the rabbi line though. A subtle nod by the writer to the 'Family Guy' episode where Optimus transforms and is shown to be Jewish, perhaps? :p

I agree on the Rabbi line and Family Guy is the first think I thought of :)

I enjoyed OP's guest spot. Wonder how the green room is though?

The Rabbi line was my favourite followed by the squirrels. :D

tee hee hee Optimus said "Nuts" :p

I thought that was really cool even with the not so funny jokes.

i thought Cullen took the role of Prime too seriously to do comedy skits like this?

Bruno presented tonight's Top Ten, topic "Reasons to go see Bruno". First Top Ten I've ever seen where every one was hilarious. Then again Cohen would have written them himself so figures.

Anywho, back on topic, the tenth reason to see Bruno - "It's like Transformers, but not as gay". :p
