Posting on our 2005 Boards, Transformers Revenge of the Fallen writer Roberto Orci responded to the question of whether or not Peter Cullen might make a cameo in the Movie. Robetro’s reply to the question was “Possibly:)”
In other posts over the last two days, Roberto Orci has also answered questions about whether the robot’s facial designs would be closer to the original Generation 1 style, and has teased about the trailer, which has a lot of amazing images – and the special effects have not even been added yet!
You can read all of Roberto’s responses, and ask your own questions, in the Welcome Mr. Roberto Orci, you may ask him questions thread on our 2005 Boards.

I still want Simon Furman to get eaten by Grimlock, even if that idea is too reminiscent of The Lost World when screenwriter David Koepp is eaten by the rex.

Aaron should make an appearance only as the Angry Archer.

I just think it would be funny if he interacted with Optimus, but in his Ironhide voice.

Maybe have Aaron be the tool booth operator?
The scene could play out like this:
Prime orders his fellow Autobots to activate their holo-drivers and proceed when they reach a row of toll booths. Prime's driver is Peter Cullen, decked out in western attire (blue jeans, a red plaid shirt, and a cowboy hat), a name tag that reads reads "Peter" is sown across his left shirt pocket.
Aaron, playing the operator that Prime/Peter Cullen pulls up to, will ask him for a dollar.
"One dollar please."
Prime makes a fake illusion and has Peter "hand" Aaron a "dollar bill."
"Here you go."
Aaron notes how light the bill feels, and even rubs in between his fingers, feeling only his own skin. Looking perplexed, he remarks towards Peter:
"Sir, this bill feels different from the rest, are you sure of it's authenticity? We've had a big problem with counterfeits lately."
Peter looks strangely at Aaron, and remarks with assurance:
"Oh I can assure you, *Peter looks at Archer's name tag* "Aaron", it's not some cheap knockoff…"
Prime/Peter drives off, and then deactivates his holographic-driver, making the dollar bill that Aaron is still inspecting disappear right before his eyes. Thus, causing Aaron to freak out and yell for the flamed red and blue semi to come back to the booth.
End Scene.

What a minute. That was one insulting remark to ham radio operators everywhere. It's closely related to the really irritating and rude question people have when they see a ham radio operator's equipment. Quote" is that like CB? " Unquote.

It'd be cool, imo, if he and the other voice actors for the main group of Autobots got cameos as their bots hologram drivers. Would be awesome to have a little conversastion where the vehicles were just sitting there, and their holograms were talking to each other. Would help save a bit on the visual effects, yet give us more characterization.

Not to brag but it was myself that suggested the voice actors get cameos.
I'd like to see and hear a chase scene too with that screaming 12V-71 Detroit Diesel sound track I found for Prime.
Having Primes dash guages winding around from the green zones to yellow warning, then red danger zone. Would be a cheap, easy but effective suspense builder too.
Just for the fun of it. When TF 3 films. I'm going to join the actors guild and try for a 2 second bit part on the edge of a scene in the background.
Interestingly enough I also grew up on a farm in Canada as Peter Cullen did. I only imitated chicken crowing and moose calls for laughs at parties. Cullen was smart, kept with the sound effects, voices and built a career.

That would be one of the best things to happen to the hard core fans! I would laugh if that happens! And there will only be a little (lot) of people who would get it! Please see that this happens, Bob!
SuzyPrime
This would be such a hoot! That or the toll booth idea.
omegagoalie
Cullen has to be Prime's holo-driver. He HAS to be. There is to much awesome involved to be ignored.
Bahamut Prime
If he does make a cameo, this should be good!

That would be cool if he was his Hologram driver…Aaron Archer should make an appearance too,maybe as a newspaper sells man or something….
