Damn! Optimus Prime can pronounce my (real) name correctly! There are people I've known for years, some I'm related to, that still can't do that.

Manning is his hero, so I was real fun for me!

Ha! That is pretty cool. Too bad I can't send my message yet. At the very end, you will find that if it is past 9:00 pm in the recipients time zone you will have to try it again the next day (before 9:00 pm)

I guess Cullen will do anything. This was funny. Almost as funny as hearing Cullen say "Burger King" on the kids meal site a few months ago.

They did the same thing with Samuel L. Jackson for Snakes on a Plane.

Sucks that it's only open to Americans (as usual), I would love to hear what it's like and have Prime call my friends and family...

*le sigh*

HEY CANUCKS!

Upon closer inspection, among the list of areas (states) listed, there is an option for "Canada", so the phone message can actually be sent to phone numbers in Canada!

And if all else fails, the message can be sent via email.

Thanks to Cycrolus for PM the news crew about this!

This is kind of scary, guys... I keep getting calls from Optimus Prime that mention random people I do not know and are ostensibly dialed from my own cell number -- meaning that the person responsible knows my cell. But like, very few people have that. It's so messed up and I don't enjoy it.

Methinks you have multiple personalities.
