Online Petitions never work and chances are 20% of those existing signatures are at lease five guys goofing around posting gibberish.
Not signing.

Not with that attitude, they don't.

Seeing how Pete hasn't even gotten one half second cameo, I'm not too sure Bay's gonna give him a slot.
Knowing Bay, he'll rather give cameo to one his Victoria Secret girlfreinds than doing a fan service.

Considering there's a bunch of assumptions behind this, it seems reasonable to identify some more:
- That petitions work (they really don't - how many canceled TV shows have been brought back due to a "petition"?).
- The petition will be sockpuppeted, so will be invalid anyway.
- If the "required" number are achieved and he does not appear, it'll be because Bay hates the fans, rather than Cullen not wanting to, a part not being suitable, scheduling issues, or anything else. Dude is 72 years old.
- If it occurs, it'll massively steal focus. In a bad way. Like Stan Lee.

Ever think that maybe Cullen doesn't necessarily want a cameo? He stated in an interview a while back that he really didn't have any interest in being on screen. So maybe the reason he's never been in the first two movies is he never pushed the subject.

Petitions don't work period. It has nothing to do with Bay being behind the helm. You really need to get over your hate for him and look into other possibilities. And what happens if the minimal isn't reached and he still makes it in? Oh that's right... it will be hasbro. Everything you do like about the movies is some how Hasbro coming to the rescue, but that bad things must be Bay's Fault.

Life isn't fair. And why do the long time voice actors all of a sudden have a right to a cameo? If the producers wanna give the voice actors working on the movie an option then OK. Especially Cullen since when it comes to the movies, he is the dominate voice actor in terms of notability, but i don't seen how voice actors from the energon series all of a sudden have a right to be in the movie.

Things aren't always as easy as that. Voice actors do all there work far away from the sets filming. Usually long after the filmings completed. Maybe there schedule conflicts with filming.. Or maybe the time needed to fly out isn't worth the time for being in the back ground ordering a burger... or maybe they just plain have no interest in having a cameo. I think at times we forget that to many of them its just another voice acting job.
Megatron Wolf wrote:I like cullen and all but im getting tired of him being considered the be all end all of TF voice actors.
Well... That's because he is. Well, him and Frank Wekler. Sorry, but in terms of TF voice actors he is the most popular and the most reconisalbe. Though to be honest, unless they heard him do his voice, 95% of the viewing public wouldn't reconise him anyhow.
