Again? I thought he wouldn't be there this year because he was just there last year. Oh well, he's great. I'll enjoy seeing him again. But I hope they have more guests. I'm hoping Susan Blu is there too.

I would ask him, "Where's Peter?"

He is a great speaker, and I really enjoyed his panel last year.

I don't see why a guest can't repeat. Peter Cullen was there two years in a row.

It depends on what is hot in TFs at the time, and who is available. I am sure they try to get the biggest names involved in the biggest projects they have going at the time (cartoon, movie), and sometimes they reach into the past when the theme fits.

Argh, I really wish I could go now. On another note, Smokescreen and Swindle are now taking bets on which quotes he will be asked to say, including "Yessssssss" and "Transform and Roll out!"
