Here is some news that should make Transformers: Dark of the Moon live long and prosper in the hearts of sci-fi fans. Mr. Spock himself, Leonard Nimoy , has joined the film as the voice of Sentinel Prime , the predecessor of Optimus Prime whose wrecked body is seen in the teaser trailer, found crash-landed on the moon by the Apollo 11 astronauts in 1969. Later, after being brought to earth, he takes the disguise form of a fire engine in the movie’s massive, climactic battle through Chicago. Apart from his obvious Star Trek cred, Nimoy also has a history with Hasbro’s shape-shifting alien robots: He was the voice of Galvatron in 1986′s The Transformers: The Movie.

So I had to be caref
