Roll out!

Autobots... roll out!

While watching the Hawks/Heat playoff game tonight, I saw a commercial that immediately got my attention with nothing but a voiceover. All I heard was: "This Summer..." and I immediately looked up at the TV. The speaker? None other than The Man himself, the voice of Optimus Prime, Peter Cullen.

The product? Coors Light.

I understand that Mr. Cullen works for a living and needs to earn a paycheck, but can't we all agree to limit his work to things that are tech related... or at least things that are so absolutely fantastic that they're worthy of his voice. He's Optimus Prime, and for those who grew up with the old cartoon, he always will be Optimus Prime.

Adult Swim, the home for cutting-edge animation? Perfect. Coors Light? Not so much.
