Haven't seen it yet, but one of my friends said it should've been called Optimus is too busy for your shit, or Nobody thinks things through.

That sound about right?

I like the begging and vomited that preceded every death. Because they are robots it is kid friendly.

Next time they shoulod involve a slow stabbing scene involving a Decepticon whispering sweet nothings into an autobots ear as the Autobot cries for its mother.

Like this but with robots
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuxpSSJBwW0

It was sad when bumblebee died :(

>>27339539
Yeah, that sounds right.

Spoilers for you:

Soundwave dies, Shockwave dies, Starscream dies, Megatron dies, Sentinel dies.

Starscream has less screen time than the stupid hang gliders that get shoved in our faces for 3 or 4 minutes.

>>27339643
jokes about gay fellatio are kid friendly as well

im not sure what market this movie was going for

>>27339679
Starscream acts like an idiot so the humans can finally get a kill. The only thing missing was a giant banana peel for him to slip on during that scene.

>>27339689
The theater was dying with laughter at the wacky asian guy. My sister and I were looking at each other like "did we miss something?"

>>27339708
"I'LL KICK YOU!"

Great last words.

>>27339679
But...was Optimus really too busy for your shit?

It... had a whole shit load of unnecessary moments. Seriously, cut out John Malkovich and Patrick Dempsey and you have more time for actual transformer battles. But, Having Optimus just say fuck it and kill both Megatron and Sentinel in the same scene was pretty cool. I mean, shit, Sentinel was begging for his life, and Optimus just blew his face off.

>>27339728
Yeah, i didn't get it either. Or the Hangover in general.. The people who find the Hangover funny thought the show Friends was hilarious as well. Im just an outsider looking in.

I like it when Ironhide vomited and groaned.

Anyone else lie that scene? With the vomiting and groaning?

>>27339754
He lets a city get attacked to prove a point. He then gets tangled up in wires for 30 minutes while marines run around in slow motion.

>>27339770
Then the ending was literally 5 seconds later with the most awkward cut I've ever seen.

>2011
>seeing another Bayformers movie

I seriously hope you guts don't do this.

>>27339796
What a dick.

anyone like Que , the Einstein Autobot?

Who voiced him? Did he got his own toy?

Also anyone remember the FPS sequence?

>>27339770
And they should have cut down the whole opening and spaced the battles differently. I found it ridiculous that the last hour of action could get so boring; it stretched forever.

Scene of the Autobots getting captured? Nah, cut that, it'll happen offscreen. WE NEED MORE GLIDERS PEOPLE!

i was sad when the old scientist autobot got killed by soundwave and I didn't even know his name.

cant we talk this over like gents? T_T

after the first one, magatron has been shafted constantly. first by the fallen now by sentinel. how the fuck do you kill megs off in less than 10 seconds?! Though shockwave was pretty cool with his giant grabloid terminator.

COULD SOMEONE EXPLAIN THE EDITING

with Laserbeaks assassinations? Why did the screen black out a dozen times? Was that supposed to make it scarier? Because all it did was look awkward and it didn't even fit with the rest of the movie. What purpose did the fade to black sequence serve?

And Buzz Aldrin can't even look in the right direction when talking to Optimus.

>>27339819
There were a couple FPS parts that were pretty pointless. And Que was neat, it was pretty sad during the part where he was shot...he seemed friendly, not like nearly half the other annoying characters in the movie.

>>27339770
[spolier]I thought it was pretty good that Optimus just slapped both of their shit with one arm. Seriously, the last two movies was just everyone gets their ass handed to them until Optimus gets his shit together and then proceeds to kill the living fuck out of the villains.[/spolier]

>>27339867
FFFFFFFFFFF dammit spoiler tags!

>>27339842
That was REALLY awkward. They did the same thing with Chicago being attacked; I was like "Wait, what?"

AND HOW LONG DID THAT SPACE BRIDGE TAKE TO ACTIVATE? GOOD LORD, WHY DID NOBODY SHOOT AT THE DUMB THING WITH ONE OF THEIR SNIPER RIFLES, THEY HAD PLENTY TO SPARE TO SHOOT AT DECEPTICONS!

The movie was an absolute nightmare for editing.

>>27339837
>>27339837

Que doesn't even have his own toy!

BUMMER!

>>27339842
>Buzz Aldrin can't even look in the right direction when talking to Optimus

I swear he was facing the opposite direction at least once

>>27339842
The movie had no control of it's tone or pacing.

>>27339844
I like the part where he begged. More kids movies should feature begging

>>27339902
Take it easy on the guy. I'm surprised they convinced him to even put up with this shit.

>my face when DEEP DEEP WANG had more lines and screentime than Starscream, Shockwave and Megatron put together

>>27339794
>>27339919
You're laying it on really thick, guy

>>27339955
It was to appeal to "The Hangover" crowd. they are a big demographic.

>>27339977
It was really weird; can Bay not make a movie with characters that aren't racial stereotypes? The ghetto robots in 2 were bad enough.

>>27340013
Im glad they switched the NASCARs accents at the last moment.

Why some decepticons bothered to get Alt forms after they invaded the earth?

>>27340025
We were still stuck with cockneybots, though...

And those two horrible little things, whatever the hell those were. They weren't Transformers, that's for sure.

OPTIMUS, YOU HAVE TO REALIZE THE NEEDS OF THE MANY OUTWEIGH THE NEEDS OF THE FEW.

AND BY NEEDS OF THE FEW I MEAN ALL OF HUMANITY.
AND BY NEEDS OF THE MANY I MEAN ME.

>>27340051

At least they were useful and wheel stopped dry humping women.

Anyone else find the girl replacing Megan Fox to be ugly? It looks like she has had some blatant work done in her cheeks and lips. For the slightest of moments I thought it was some robots attempt at looking human but, messed it up.

>>27339842
And another weird editing momnet. There was this younger black guy (one of the NEST guys) they kept doing close ups on (Im not talking about Epps or the fat guy with the rocket launcher). Every five seconds during the Chicago sequence they kept focusing on his face. What the fuck was that? Were they trying to make him the hero for that 20 minute sequence (i dont even think he did anything)? A kind of apology for the black Chevys in the second movie? What was going on?

Or that terrible music that came on every time the British chick's ass appeared? What was that all about?

And then there is this
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7kcqB3thJM

>>27340053
I thought that same thing. How many Autobots and Decepticons were even alive at that time? I doubt it was more then 6 billion.

I actually laughed in a few places, although the humour isn't really well done. It's just awful and cheesy enough that it still got some cheap lols out of me.

Aside from that.. I dunno, it wasn't dreadful and I'd have found it a fairly entertaining diversion at half the length, but it went on far, far too long. I'm 25 years old and I was fidgeting like a small child. If a film is going to be two and a half hours long, it needs to be really fucking good, and all the flaws I could have overlooked in a shorter film were too much by the end of this one. I didn't really give a shit by the time it finally meandered to its conclusion.

>>27340090
She had kind of a shitty personality; same with Sam's parents. Good lord, why were they even in the fucking film?

I was too young for the original cartoon, but when I watched this I felt like I was too old for the movie.

I'm a man without a country.

>>27339491
Bayformers has always shown us that this version of Optimus is a kinda shitty leader.

Thinking about it now, all leadership in these movies are pretty shitty. With the sole exception of Josh Duhamel who is most of the time going "you gotta be fucking shitting me" and running into Decepticon craziness.

I mean what the fuck Optimus? (spoiler) did Chicago have to be fucking culled for you to prove that the Decepticons were deceiving? (/spoiler)

Also did anyone get the sense that all of new love interest's lines were written for Megan Fox at the end?
Like come on bitch you're scared to death constantly and you got the audacity to walk up to Megs, who is i guess chillin in an Alley or something, and talk some smack?

>>27340093
>There was this younger black guy (one of the NEST guys) they kept doing close ups on

I remember this. I thought they were going to have some "rookie saves the day" moment but nothing really came of it. Or did he kill Soundwave?

i think Bay is just trying to tell us through this movies that he's done making transformers movies.

the studio seems like they want to milk it for a few more though

>>27340093
I didn't know or care about any of the rednecks in the last finale of the movie. It kinda blew my mind how I could get bored watching a building fall over, though; that scene seemed to last for 20 minutes.

>>27340094
Where did those decepticons even come from? They all just magically activated at once?

>>27340090
she may be ugly, but she at least knows not to call michael bay hitler in earshot of Stevejew Jewburg.

I found a letter someone wrote online wanting Bay to direct a Power Rangers remake. I thought it was fucking stupid, /co/ was for it. Reading through this thread I still think it's fucking stupid, and if he goes anywhere near the Power Rangers I shall slay him.

Why did he even attack Chicago? Aren't there still a metric fuckton of Decepticons (remember the pillars were set up everywhere around the world) and only like 8 Autobots (including those monkey thingies)? Where is Arcee?

And Micheal Bay should research something called fight choreography. Fighting isn't some one twirling around and around. STOP IT

>>27339842
>>27339884
because Laserbeak probably killed that family
and did you see the carnage in Chicago? most people got disintegrated like in War Of The Worlds but i swear i saw one getting blown up to pieces
i think the blackouts were to avoid a R rating maybe?

how to make a transformers movie
>hot chick dating louis stevens
>explosions
>optimus prime says cool one-liner
>more explosions

>>27340156
Find his address and kill him before his request makes it to Bay's desk.

>>27340186
I do not want him anywhere near them at all. I shudder to think what should happen...

>>27340173
They had people turned into skeletons and prisoners begging for their lives only to be shot to death. Pretty sure the edits were just...bad edits. The movie was full of them.

I'm struggling to remember half of the shit that happened in the first third; why did Sam's boss come to the apartment to play with Bumblebee? Why did we need the subplot with the russian cosmonauts?

>>27340185
Oh yeah, what was his cool line in this one?

>>27340196
All power Ranger fights will involve the power rangers spinning around and around while Putties spin around and around like tops all in slow mo

>>27340206
Didn't someone say "class is over"? It didn't even make sense within the context of the fight.

>>27340216
>slow mo
Is Zack Snyder co-directing?

>>27340206
"Let's find out."
Facemask, rips out Megatron's spine, then executes an old man pleading for his life. Then there is a closeup of an American flag.

>>27340226
Zack Snyder and Micheal Bay will team up for this next effort. but seriously Snyder at least knows how to hire fight choreographers (and im sorry but CG or not, they are still fucking necessary).

>>27340225
So...he went from the classic "One shall stand, One shall fall." to "Fate rarely calls upon us at a time of our choosing"/"I rise, you fall." to "Didn't someone say 'Class is over?'" >>27340250 or that even...

>>27340173
Instead of glossing over it, they could have just said the Laserbeak killed them. The pacing would have been less fucked.

It was a bad decision.

>>27340277
They could have cut 20 minutes out of that movie to maybe...oh...I don't know...

SHOW THE AUTOBOTS BEING FUCKING CAPTURED!

>>27340225
Ironhide said that after killing on of the cat bots.
I don't know why. And why were the cat bots attacking to begin with? That doens't make sense either?


Can someone explain why the highway chase scene even took place?

I just wish Megatron smashed that bitch without a second thought before going to kill Sentinel.

So is Transformers 4 finally gunna involve Unicron or no?

>>27340251
So, it's going to be chock full of special effects, filmed in front of a green screen with slow mo every five seconds, explosions every two seconds, and every fight is just going to be an awkward dance scene?

>>27340264
Megatron: Prime, I just saved your life from sentinel. How 'bout we team up?

Optimus: No.
and then optimus decapitates megatron and sticks an axe through his face.
-FIN-

>>27340093
>fat black guy
BITCH YOU TALKING ABOUT THE COLE TRAIN.

SO I've been planning on seeing this movie and now I almost don't want to because I know I'll walk out depressed after the first 24 hours of "OH SHIT SOUNDWAVE!" yeah I know he dies.
Still, for me, soundwave is soundwave and that's enough. Still, I can already feel the on setting depression.

there was definitely a point when the editors said to themselves "shit... were almost at 3 hours. fuck it just roll the credits"

>>27340301
The highway chase scene was there because....uhhhh...uhhhhhhhhh.....ummmmm

>>27340301

Because the decepticons wanted to capture Sam.

Who was that other little transformer with wheelie? The one with sea anename hair?

I'm not up to date on transformer lore.
Which one turns into a series of sandworms?

>>27340346

I wouldn't watch the movie just for Soundwave. He doesn't do much besides be the executioner in the final battle. He only has like 2 lines in the entire movie.

>>27340364
They didnt even pay Sam attention during that scene

During parts of the movie I kept wintering how different comic and video game characters would have reacted and resisted. I remember thinking about Batman, Alex mercer from Prototyope, Cole from Infamous, and I think the X-Men as well. I mean, if Magneto was on the Xmen then he could just walk in and rip them all apart.

I loved the part where the Cons were overpowering the Autobots and we saw how they were rounded up. Barricade and Bee had an awesome fight like they did in the first one, but then that other Con jerk jumped in and took him out.

Oh...wait. No, nevermind. That happened off screen while the black guy was telling Sam not to save his stupid ass sperm dumpster. We cut to the Autobots already round up.

>>27340382
Here is what happened
Some asshole went "YOU KNOW WUT WOULD BE COOOLL? A GIANT WUUUUURRRRRMMM." And Im sure someone went, "But there aren't any giant worm Transformers". And that man was fired.

>>27340349
they were going after Sentinel, because at the time they thought that the decepticons needed him to activate the pillars

ITT: /v/

>>27340301
i remember the scene. the cats were running to catch up with sentinel. Ironhide and whoever and 2 cats ended up in a mexican standoff. Ironhide offers them the option to leave. the two cats nod at each other and drop their weapons. the autobots then drop theirs. the cats have back guns. Then the catbots die. the smaller autobot says the class dismissed line.

and everyone goes wuh?

>>27340431
I've played video games with more coherent plots than this.
JAPANESE video games.

>>27340301
>>27340364
Didn't they want Sentinel?

....who was on their side? So...wait...

Also, why did the asshole boss explain Megatron's evil plan to the audie...I mean...to the blonde girl?

>>27340423

Oh I laughed too hard at that.

It's true though. I beat someone said worm and then Bay got his thinking face on. "Hmmm....."
"Wait! NO! Sir, I didn't mean it!"
"Get me the CGI department!"

>>27340425
>thought that the decepticons needed him to activate the pillars

Wait, the Decepticons thought that the Decepticons needed him to activate the pillars which they already possessed, not to mention Sentinel was already on board with them to begin with?

>>27340423
Wurmcoil Engine did get a lot of screentime, which was neat. He almost had half the screentime the marine gliders did!

>>27340435
They wanted to give them a chance to leave. Autobots show mercy. They like to set an example for others to follow.

How to get Megatron to do something, call him a bitch. An English human word that holds no meaning to him, but hey, half of his CPU brain is getting eaten by ....robot flies? so he might no be thinking too straight right now.

>>27340501
That still doesn't explain why he said "class dismissed".

>>27340501
Cept Optimus, Optimus takes no prisoners

>>27340524
Good thing she stumbled upon him brooding in that alley instead of....you know...guarding the red pillar vital to his plans.

>>27340497
Ah man, deathtouch AND lifelink? That's a bitch. No wonder Chicago got it bad.

>>27340527
He probably got sick of Megatron's shit. How many series have we been through where Optimus and Megatron are constantly fighting eachother?

Where's my fucking Unicron anyway?

>>27340301
Idk, but the highway chase was one of the few scenes that I liked. Almost like the forest fight in RoF but not as cool.

>>27340524
>An English human word that holds no meaning to him

Despite the fact he clearly knows the english language and would therefore know what she means by calling him a bitch.

>>27340547
You know what would've happened to Bayformer Unicron? It would've been worse than cinematic Galactus and Cloudallax combined!

>>27340561
And yet he didn't kill her for some bizarre reason.

I give you the villain of the next film

Im totally evil but Im not going to kill this woman for some unknown reason.

This reminds me of the second movie in the desert where some Constructicons decided not to smash Sam's parents but instead made stupid clawing motions at them just long enough to get killed.

This movie is comical in ways it doesn't mean to be.

>>27340501
By murdering those who beg for mercy because they wanted another way out of a war that was never going to end?

WTF happened in the end by the way. Did all the Cons get defeated? What about the Cons that are in the other counties just dicking around with the other pliers?

>>27340525
I guess he's showing the young decepticons who was boss.

It's a stupid little one-liner no need to overanalyse it.

>>27340572
Sam's new girlfriend!

>>27340561

I meant more of "I'm an alien evil War Lord, I shouldn't really care that you just called me a bad name."

>>27340574
I fucking hate it when movies do that. JUST KILL THEM. A cliche that needs to die.

On another note,

I was totally hoping Cybertron was going to stay in the sky. wouldve been nice, wouldve felt like the cartoons

>>27340579
No time for that. Monologue, american flag, ending credits. The movie was already too long, they needed to end it, I guess.

SURE GLAD THAT CYBERTRON KINDA MELTED OR WHATEVER, THAT WAS SURE CONVENIENT!

Megatron's behavior made sense. I mean, the guy had that big hole in his head and he kept picking at it. He was probably pretty brain damaged.

>>27340525
Because he took them to school.

>>27340635

>>27340592
The new character that gets more groans (somehow) than Shai leBouf

>>27340620

Good thing Earth didn't get sucked into that huge imploding vacum of a black hole. Boy did we dodge a bullet this time.

So THIS TIME will the government now tell the humans about the Autobots? Seeings how now the world literally saw Cybertron ABOVE THEM.

>>27340666
Nah, I smell cover up

>>27340572
that's not Galvatron

>>27340485
shit i need to go to fucking sleep
they were escorting or rushing to the NEST facility to protect Sentinel
at the time Sam and the others didn't know that Sentinel was a traitor

>>27340666

People are already aware of the Autobots. Bill O'rielly was interviewing that guy from sector 7 about the transformers.

>>27340620

You know, If Optimus had died and based on the matrix of leadership to bumblebee or something, with all the other shit that had happened it would have played out just like that Doctor Who episode I saw.

>>27340729

passed*

Anyone else enjoy the scene where shit is flying everywhere and the British chick stays in focus for about a minute. Yeah, we could have used that minute for actual dialog from shockwave or soundwave. Yeah

>>27340592
What I hated was that they forced a stupid romantic subplot in the first two movies then just wrote off the girlfriend and replaced her with pretty much the same person so they could do the whole thing yet again in this movie (oh look, jealousy, oh look choosing between SAVING THE FUCKING WORLD or you know...dinner).

Bay we don't care if the main character has relationship problems, we are more interested in giant robots beating the shit out of each other.

I'm still scratching my head how bumblebee gets captured like 2 minutes after saving Sam. There wasn't even an action scene of them getting caught!

>>27340786

The whole movie was fucking terrible. And everybody was laughing at stupid jokes... If 4chan has become the last bastion of taste I may just kill myself right now.

>>27340786

That and she's walking calmly in the middle of a warzone! Terrible really.

I felt bad for brain damage Megatron.

I saw this movie with a friend of mine and during the end where Sam was like "I will spend the rest of my life making it up to you" I was really confused as to what he was talking about, so I turned to my friend and asked and she said "Because he didn't go to the dinner"

Fucking seriously! He just helped save the world for the 3rd time, the guy was evil and didn't would have been some dry shit anyway!

>>27339679
>Starscream has less screen time than the stupid hang gliders that get shoved in our faces for 3 or 4 minutes.
Are you kidding? He's got a giant fucking fanservice scene, a long glorious stretch of just Starscream being a bitch.

Well, and then he dies, but still.

>>27340863

Starscream was better than usual but he still wasn't fucking starscream. He was throwing up for some reason to.

The Starscream of old wasn't a bitch that grovel and twist his hands together in front of Megatron he would tell him his plans were stupid to his face.

>>27340863
>MUH MY EYEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
>wail around, slip, fall, try to climb a building, fall again
>I KICK YOU!!!!!!

>>27340786

What a fucking surprise

No true evil who kill any human he see
No cybertron which rest in the sky
Why does they need sentinel if he only push a button ?
They are machine, they don't need slave because the live century...
And ameria fuck yeah with the flag in the end, make me puke all over the place.

>>27340863
wouldve been nice if sam was like "starscream's dead, yup i killed starscream"

I think the reason some scenes dragged was because they had to fill a CG quota

Was there at least one scene of people looking up at the sky in slow motion while the camera rotates around them?

Because i love those scenes!

>>27340806
Why was she being so bitchy? WHY WOULD SHE LEAVE SAM AND GO HAVE A DATE WITH HER BOSS THE NEXT DAY?

And good lord what the fuck were Sam's parents doing in the film? Did anyone enjoy them?

>>27341027
"The Hangover" crowd found them just as funny as Funny Asian Man

So yeah, I guess.

>>27340896
I nearly cringed when I heard that. I'll kick you? I'll kick you? Why the hell would he say that? Why would he announce that?

Was there anything after the credits? Like...anything with him and Megatron?

>risking your life over a bimbo slut

WTF with the black screen scene ?
What about the world ?
Why would they need cybertron when they can have a fucking planet...

Every time i see a movie it like all the character are retard...

>>27341057
Funny with "The Hangover" crowd

>>27341024
Oh yeah, you better believe it.

>>27341045
That was just a bizarre scene in general. Why the fuck did he spaz out completely around Sam, exactly? Why did he have to act so psychotic and weird?

Oh, right, The Hangover.

>watching bayformers for the story/plot

So they have an armada with spaceship and hundred of decepticon like 50 years ago and they didnt invade the earth ?

Are they stupid ?

>>27341115
I watched it for the robots. I expected it to have Transformers in it. If I want to see wacky military hijinks I'll watch something else.

>>27341115
Yes. I watch movies for the story. I don't care what the premise is.

>>27341115
I really don't care about slow moshit and explosion what i want is a movie explaining the story of the transformers, i want giant battlefield, true evil and no useless bimbo.

>>27340979
>Why does they need sentinel if he only push a button ?
Sentinel's part of the system, it doesn't work without him. Pay a little attention, they mention it several times.

Can Hollywood fix Transformers by making a Beast Wars movie?

Who could direct it?

>>27341227
>>27341227
They are robot, they just have to hack him or use is body.

>>27341027
>And good lord what the fuck were Sam's parents doing in the film? Did anyone enjoy them?
they couldn't have more than 5 minutes of screen time
at the beginning and when they give him advice and it was the mom who had most lines
also other than the dick joke they were dialed way down

>>27341247
That was 5 minutes that could have been more robots; the movie had barely any Transformers interacting with each other. Would have been nice to see Shockwave say something to Megatron. Or the Autobots feeling sad about Ironhide. Or anything, really.

they sure loved saying shit all the time

>>27341236
Do you know how hard it would be to make live action transforming robots? And why do they even need to disguise themselves? Are they hiding from the other animals or something? It's not like they give a shit. They're fucking animals.

>>27341127

They didn't want to just invade earth. They wanted slaves to rebuild cybertron.

>>27341297
It is edgy. Also they said "fuu.."

I love noticing all the fat pigs with kids they broought in during the movie. And yes there was even a baby.

>>27341115
I watched it for giant robots, but sadly the movie seemed more intent on HEY LOOK AT THIS CHICK HOT RIGHT than the fucking Transformers themselves.

But at least Barricade had a cameo and he's still alive to me shut up, there was no body

>>27341313
I mean animals.

>>27339658
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU with the power of a thousand suns. why couldn't have been optimus,he died in every transfomers show exept armada,energon and cybertron

>>27341313

unstable energon supplies scattered al over the earth

also:

MOTHERFUCKING DINOBOT.

I wasn't disappointed 'cause got what I paid for!

>>27341326
And why using shitty human when they can create new transformer who will works harder, better, faster and stronger. And they can live century in space.

It's certainly the best of the three Bayformers movies, but it's still terrible. Begrudging props to Bay for, in the first time in Transformers history, making Optimus Prime a bloodthirsty, unlikeable, one-liner-spouting asshole.

Optimus is supposed to be a beacon of hope, someone who brings out the best in others and tries to bring it out in himself, someone who detests fighting his brothers and sees the Decepticon/Autobot conflict AT BEST as a necessary evil. Basically Jean-Luc Picard in robot form.

Thank god Prime singlehandedly killed every single antagonist in the movie continuity, otherwise I'd be worried about further affronts to the franchise.

At least Mudflap and Skids were nowhere to be seen.

>>27341425
Yeah, black stereotypes are so passe. Now we have DEEP WANG DEEP WANG DEEP WANG!

Look at the bright side: they gave Shockwave a pet tentacle monster.

As a robophile-slash-tentacle fan, this was delightful.

>>27341385
He died in Armada.

>>27341425
I always like to think that Optimus is stupidly strong but he always holds himself back, because he wants to make his enemies good, to come over to his side, and when that fails he does what he has to do.

Kind of like Superman

You know what I'd love to see?
A prequel, showing how the war started. No humans, no mention of earth, just robots being robots and doing robot things. It would actually make most of the charcters likeable and give more to the war than just 'They're evil because we say so lol'

It would also mean no Carly whats her face pouting in every scene, and no 'I am Mr Special' Sam.

>>27341549

I would love this.

But they would interact with cavemen or something.

>>27341529

I agree. But can you ever envision any incarnation of Superman (disregarding 90S ANTI-HERO mode) saying something like "GIVE ME YOUR FACE?"

>>27341549
They did that as a videogame---War for Cybertron.

>>27341549
There will be a love story between an autobot and a decpeticon and a little autobot who will be the key.
They don't have the right to make good film, only making them in order to make money.

Damn, I just realized that instead of Ironhide and Que dying, it could've been those two racist ass robots. Well, if they want to make huge bucks on the DVD/ Bluray release of this movie, they can show alternate scenes only with Mudflap and Skids, all while they scream in horrible agony shouting obscenities.

>>27341567
Nope, those lines are pretty out of character, but he is a robot that is trying his damn hardest to feel compassion for living things.

If Superman ever acted in a fit of rage like that he'd lock himself away for a thousand years because he'd fear his own power.

>>27341549
She looked like she had just finished a lemon in half her scenes.

Also, way to tell Sam about your new $200,000 decepticon car, you jerk. Really classy woman right there.

>>27341549
there are those prequel comics
but they get written by whatever movie they tie-in with, so they're a fucking mess when you read them in one sitting

>>27341606
Ironhide getting killed isn't replacement for the twins getting removed

Ironhide would have died ALONGSIDE the twins. In fact, watching the "invincible" Ironhide crumble into a puddle of rusty metal is what makes Skids attempt to fight back, and sends Mudflap into a berserker rage when his own brother gets taken down next.

>>27341580
Right, I know what game I'm getting next.
But the question is-is it any good? (I hope so)

So how do you people feel about the portrayal of Optimus in these movies?

He's basically a stone-cold, pathos-spouting death machine.

Wasn't he always more Superman and less Punisher?

I mean sure, he's in a war and he'll kill when necessary, but the number of times he executed downed enemies over the course of the Bay films...

...it just doesn't sit right with me.

>>27341682
"Ah shit, oh you did not just kill my brotha from anotha mot- OH SHIT I'M DEAD NIGGA, I'M DEAD, MOTHERFUCKING SENTINEL PRIME GOT ME!"

Being a race of giant robot who live in space and can be or do every thing. Live in a giant iron ball and not expand to the galaxy.

Find the error.

>>27341682

I'm preety sure Ironhide is used to dying like a bitch.

>>27341738
I enjoyed it. The campaign mode is pretty short though, but it's fun.

>>27341739
Bayformers is not the same thing as Transformers.

OptiBay Prime is a completely different species from Optimus Prime. Baytobots are not Autobots. The two franchises have nothing to do with each other.

One is about a species of alien robots, the other is about stereotypes and boobs exploding during car chases. Totally different.

>>27341738
It actually is. Graphics aren't perfect, but it's fun and the dialogue is hilarious.

"You're joking, right, Megatron?"
"Yes, Breakdown. I am known for my sparkling sense of humour. Now get into that tunnel before I dismantle you myself!"

>>27341750
Actually, Mudflap doesn't even speak. He just throws himself at Sentinel, howling and ineffectively attacking the much larger autobot with his bare hands. And then Sentinel shoves the barrel of a cosmic rust gun down his throat (literally) and pulls the trigger.

I bet everyone would be fine with Optimus Prime killing hordes of Decepticons and killing Megatron to end the war if they played "The Touch" while he did it. Seems to be the only reason you let the G1 version off without even a finger wag.

>>27341816

YOU'VE GOT THE POWER!!

>>27341789
Skids: "DAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!"

>>27341789

>>27341779
I loved the seeker level, with the three being catty as shit towards each other.

>>27341773
Jeesh, i just thought they'd try to at least adapt some of his character traits...

Whatever. Thank god it's over.

brb waiting for a reboot by a good director who respects the property...

>>27341816
We would also accept Yakkity Sax, Oingo Boingo or anything by Lady Gaga.

>>27341816

Only if the fight lasted as long as the song.

I blinked and missed Optimus "fighting" Megatron at the end.

>>27341773
>one is about stereotypes

>>27341789
I feel for the people who design all this awesome looking stuff, which gets shoved out of the movie to show more preexisting military hardware.

>>27341852

What you'll get, at best, is some guy who directed Torque, whichever Fast and Furious sequel or Rob Zombie and they will make a movie so bad you'll come to praise Michael Bay.

>>27341844
"Stupid? I'll show you stupid, Starscream!"
"You always do, Skywarp"


Btw, is there a Decepticon-Version of that: >>27341580

>>27341885

>>27341866
Okay that's amusingly racist. Is that from Armada or something?

Anyway would you say that whatever series that racist image is from is "about" stereotypes or merely includes them out of ignorance.

Because on several levels I would say that Bayformers is "about" stereotypes.

>>27341883
Rob Zombie has a slim chance of actually making something fun.

It'd have fuck-all to do with Transformers though.

There'd be Werwolves and Nazis and Nunns and his hot-ass wife and Nicolas Cage in a bad hairpiece and buckets of gore!

>>27341900

You sound like a fanboy.

>>27341900
That's from G1
http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Carbombya
It offended one of the VAs enough to make him quit

>>27341900
Don't worry, it's not G1. G1 would never say that Arabs only want to car bomb you, or have Japanese people who talk in chop socky ME SO SOLLY HONALBRE OPTIMUS PULIME SAN, or gay robots, or blink-and-you-miss them robots.

G1 was fuckin' perfect.

>>27341897
Thank you ;_;

So... Was the new movie better than ROTF?

>>27341944
Yes, but the last time I used the restroom it was better than ROTF, so that's not saying much.

>>27341900
>Is that from Armada or something?
dude, that's straight G1

Wait, I just remembered that the guy with thos electro-whips dissapered alongside the twins.
Did he just not do enough product placement, or what?

>>27341990
He said "fuck this shit I'm outta here" and went on a cruise.

Possibly a gay cruise.

>>27341881
I don't. They're paid to draw it. If they use the design or not, he still gets his pay check for drawing giant robots and guns and wacky equipment and scenes. Dude's still getting his money.

>>27341962
>>27341934
>>27341928
>>27341926
Haha really? Wow. I had no idea. I never watched much G1. Beast Wars was my childhood cartoon. I assumed since the snapshot in question was of vague artistic 'quality' that it was produced later than that.

Welp.

Okay it's all built on stereotypes and is a shitty, offensive franchise. I just don't like Michael Bay.

Okay, how did the Con's get the 100 extra pillars?

Did they have them all along?

>>27342181

you skipped the part when Witwicky went with the other guy to talk with russians.

>>27342205

I blacked out or something, I dont even remember

>>27341606
This is going to seem odd to ya'll, but for some reason I never saw them as racist. I thought they were wiggers to be perfectly honest, which is what made the entire thing all the more hilarious to me.

>>27342229
It's why I enjoyed them. They reminded me of my own younger brother, who is a jug-eared white boy who tried his hardest to be "gangsta" when he was younger.

>>27341789

>He just throws himself at Sentinel, howling and ineffectively attacking the much larger autobot with his bare hands. And then Sentinel shoves the barrel of a cosmic rust gun down his throat (literally) and pulls the trigger.

You mean like how Batista killed Ja Rule in Wrong Side of Town?

>>27342278
Exactly. Yet everyone is going to go out of their way to say that they are racist. I don't know, I thought it made sense for them to act that way and think it was normal. Especially if they focused on the lowbrow black comedies that make sue of that stereotype in their movies. Point is, they didn't show the black race in a negative light so how are they racist?

>>27342073
for a second I thought that was Doom

Movie was such a pile of shit and that Carly bitch didn't help

Why did Sam HAVE to have a love interest. She literally served no purpose in the movie.

For 3/4 of it she is dolled up in either very lacking of clothes, hitting on someone, or dressed up in some kind of party clothing. Then she gets captured and is still wearing breast bearing clothes. I admit the opening scene was pretty hot but like someone said who was this movie's target demographic.

One scene you have people's skull rolling in the streets of Chicago next thing you've got small bots making jokes about how fucked they are. This movie has horrible direction and editing. So many plot holes

If Sentinel was going to betray Optimus why give him back the leader spark? Why not simply "lead" them into a trap?

Why are they summoning planets next to each other?

You sincerely expect me to believe that Megatron got depressed and sat out the final battle of a war because someone said "no I'm the leader now?"

And honestly what real motivation did Sentinel have? Cybertron was destroyed! What were they going to do with 6 billion human slaves anyway? Mind you Cybertron is fucking huge. It housed some umpteenth amount of hyper intelligent robots.

This is also assuming that every human can even do the damn job and that they would have the space suits to actually install it in Cybertron.

And I'm sorry but isn't Cybetron destroyed? Like the equivalent of water on their planet is gone? Humans can't make essential shit like that out of their ass. Why go through all the trouble when earth is perfectly fine?

>>27342340
Well, for me, it's just how stupid and unnecessary it was to include them. I imagine this huge race of sentient robots millions of lightyears away, and what do two of these creatures become? Nigga technology.

>>27342380
>You sincerely expect me to believe that Megatron got depressed and sat out the final battle of a war because someone said "no I'm the leader now?"

I imagine it's pretty easy to not want to fight in the final battle yourself when you're missing a good third of your head and have robot scabies all over you.

>>27342422
Forgot my picture

>>27342380
Wasn't the point of bringing the whole planet was that the rest of the cybertronians could come to Earth in one fell swoop?

>You sincerely expect me to believe that Megatron got depressed and sat out the final battle of a war because someone said "no I'm the leader now?"

This. I saw the scene where Megatron was just sitting there and I actually had forgotten he was even in the movie. He just SAT there, pouting until he got a pep talk from Carly.

Also, what the fuck was Carly thinking? She went to trash talk Megatron, alone. He's a creature who takes pleasure in crushing humans like bugs. And why did she trash talk him? On the off chance that he would just happen to intervene at just the right time in the Sentinel vs Optimus battle? Why not just wait for Optimus to get killed, shoot Sentinel in the back and rule the world like a boss.

>>27342380

Not only that, what messed me more up was that they (Megatron and Sentinel) were actually trying to preserve their specie and Optimus put another specie (the humans) before his very own. That made absolutely no sense (unless he's crazy).

And that love scene on the end and the wedding song... guh my stomach.

did anyone feel like this was more of an advertisement for the US ARMY that features robots that sometimes transformed?

>>27342422
But that's my point

Ok a few parts of his face was missing and sure maybe he even had some rust in his gears which also makes no fucking sense since his fellow Decepticons are just as bad off as he is.

But Optimus loses an arm while fighting Sent and yet he still can kill BOTH of them.

Why would Megatron fight a battle against his old war time foe if he knew he was going to lose. He literally put up no effort against Optimus. My entire audience didn't clap, they didn't laugh, they didn't even react because the entire scene was just so bland.

The main bad guy from a 3 movie series has just died and no one felt a damn thing because he was being such a huge cry baby. And what's even more fucking stupid is that the woman manipulates him into action!

Wasn't he fighting a huge war on a damn planet and you mean to tell me a few shitty sentence and the word "bitch" to drill the point home is what springs him into action?

Leave it to Michael Bay to make the lead female's role literally only purpose in the entire movie is to be a manipulative conniving bitch.

I'm glad it's over and I hope it never sees the light of day again

>>27342490
I just watched Battle: LA and it is no where near as bad as that.

This movie had military in it and yes it did cater to the armed forces crowd. Here is technology that the junkies will love. Here's some terms and moves for the Call of Duty kiddies. It could have been a lot worse considered the movie's entire premise

>>27342216

Yeah, the whole thing was a decepticon setup from the start. Apparently they planned all of this very specifically, to the letter. The 'cons took all the pillars sometime between the crash and the moon landing.

>>27342503

>be optimus prime

>show up with badass trailer that transforms into an armory
>lose it before the final battle

>acquire jetpack
>get stuck in wires for 30 minutes

>claim to protect human race
>leave to let them get mercilessly slaughtered

what the hell optimus?

>>27342556

so they had the pillars the whole time?

Why the hell didn't the fallen use the shard of the all-spark in Transformers 2 to revive Sentinel and attack with total surprise and a badass Sentinel, Fallen, Megatron trio while Optimus is dead?

>>27342602

Just two of either would create huge leadership issues, I don't think any of them want to deal with both of the others at once.

I've seen this movie once in the original and once with German dubs. And Jesus it is shitty in German. They translate "all hail Megatron" as "Alle grüßen Megatron" which would actually mean "Everyone says hello to Megatron".
Combined with his rusty voice this makes him seem even more senile.

>>27342380
Agree 110% I hated every moment that woman was on screen and I knew there was something that irked me about the plot. Couldn't put my finger on it though

>>27342646

german dub is the worst thing ever, i only saw the trailer, and it sounded everyone was talking to bottles.

wtf germany?!

>>27342646
Now that's just nitpicky.
Then again, everybody shouting "Heil Megatron" in their best snappy Nazi officer voice would've been hilarious.

>>27342714
Well, it bothered me, since his english voice actually is awesome.
They could have said "Lang lebe Megatron" - that's not exactly the same, but makes much more sense.

>>27342646
Megatron is a cranky old man, yelling at the humans to get off his lawn.
The only reason he puts up with Starscream's shit is because he's too senile to remember the last 600 times he betrayed him.

>yfw steven spielberg has recently expressed interest in making a transformers film
MY BODY IS NOT READY

>>27342777
Speaking of betrayals, that was one thing that confused the shit out of me-why the fuck did Starscream NOT betray Megatron in this movie?
He was missing half his face, was living in fucking AFRICA and then spent the rest of the movie just mooching around.

Hell, no one would have argued if Starscream killed Megatron since this was probably one of the only times he was actually an unfit leader, being half dead,mad and completely boring.

>>27342828

What it would be about now?

Beast Wars

I wanted to feel sad for Bee when he was about to be executed, but it was SO FUCKING STUPID.

You are held prisoner when the opponent has an advantage. The autobots were about even in number and they had guns in their fucking arms. They just stood there and waited to be executed for no reason. Then the distraction happened, they whipped out their guns and fought.

The "i'll take you to the back and shoot you" was also stupid.

The AMURIKKA ARMY killing Shockwave was fucking bullshit as well.

Prime becoming the psycho butcher from ROTF was also bullshit.

Getting tangled in wires. RETARDED.

>>27340117
>>to walk up to Megs, who is i guess chillin in an Alley or something,

Why was Megatron even sitting there? I thought he was wounded or something but then he stood up and went to Sentinel.

Also, wtf was up with those spiders in his face which wouldnt heal?

Shockwave LOOKED AWESOME
The worm LOOKED AWESOME
Megatron in his cowl LOOKED AWESOME
Soundwave LOOKED AWESOME
Starscream.... yeah you know how he looks.


What do they have in common? THEY ALL DID NOTHING AND DIED LIKE LITTLE BITCHES. I mean Shockwave spent the entire Chicago scene walking around getting distracted by Autobot fire.

>>27343210

I love how Sam was just had such thick plot armor that it wasn't even fun anymore to watch.
Remember in the first movie when Barricade was all up in his shit? Yeah, that was cool. Now he's in that falling building and that one Con goes up there and just kinda....chills? Felt like a Loony Tunes short where that dog can't sniff out Bugs even thought Bugs is behind the mail box and he does "Duuuuuuuuuuuuh where did he go?!" and I laughed when Shockwave noticed that ONE FUCKING DESK that passed his vision, while he was in the middle of an Armageddon enviroment, and was like "Desk? Those humans are totally up on that 78th floor of this falling building."

Megatron saving Optimus live...calling truce...Optimus responding with an axe in Megatrons face...

Autobots letting Decepticons destroy a city and killing all the people just to make a point about being the saviors of the humanity.

Dude...Autobots are such an assholes...

Also the puns about Megan Fox...

>>27343271
Oh god that made me cringe. He's standing under a broken, falling building. Debris is raining down ALL THE TIME and yet that ONE desk instantly makes him suspicious.
Not to mention the fact that of course, the debris would happen to fall right by Shockwave. Not on him, not down the street from him, but literal centimetres from him.

I also liked how Sam and that chick managed to not injure themselves while falling around in that building, and how Sam is apparently owner of the strongest arms in the world, since he was able to just be flung around by that grappling hook into walls and into the floor without so much as an 'ow', or a very painful dislocation of his arm.

>>27341750
>>27341750
>>27341750
>>27341750
>>27341750
OK i would laugh at this.

>>27343271
Are you talking about Samuel "Adamantium Bones" Witwicky ?

>>27343328

funny, she resurrected Sam in ROTF.

rotf indeed.

>>27343385

Yeah, I loved how Starscream was so busy going "Ow my eye! Ow ow ow" To just you know, Hurl Sam and the Captain as hard as he fucking could into the ball like a paddle ball ball while the dangled in front of him.

Why did you bother, OP? Honestly. You knew what you were in for.

>>27343429

And why the heck was he drooling on that scene too? That just looked odd.

They are machine who can be anything and the can't grow arm or eyes ?

At least it wasn't utter shit like Transformers 2

>>27343454
They can't be anything, there's always been limitations, like how autobots can't recreate flying mechanisms or how they need a reference to scan.

I remember when laser guns couldn't kill you in the other movies...Megatron blaster cannon in the first one for example, Optimus eat a blast from that shit and nothing happens...

>>27343454

It seems that getting shot in the eye is like...a death sentence. Like a race horse with a broken leg. Screamer, Barricade and that other Con that wasn't Barricade but should have been got shot in the eyes by the humans and they went down in a second.

>>27343454
They don't generate new parts, they rearrange what they have. It's been like that even since the original cartoon.

Remember in the second movie beginning when they used a spare decepticon to repair megatron? Why not do that again?

Or how the Decepticons won the war but six autobots and a bunch of humans against 200+ Cons were able to defend earth?

Such utter bullshit

I like the irony of how Optimus says "You betrayed yourself" to Sentinel right before he executes him and betrays the core concept of the character Optimus Prime.

This movie was ridiculously shitty and ridiculously high budget. A downright tragic combination.

>>27343366
not to mention hitting walls or starscream while being flung around. hell starcream crashed himself through a building with sam going with it and he doesn't have a scratch.

---

what i find funny is in the first movie, everyone is afraid of megatron, he kicks everyone's ass. even optimus can barely defend himself.

then in the 2nd movie where megs upgrade supposedly made him even stronger, he gets his ass handed to him by optimus.

then in this movie he gets killed under 5 seconds.

>>27343568
well sentinel executed ironhide in cold blood.
optimus just returned the favor

>>27343600
and in doing so betrayed his character concept.

Optimus Prime doesn't do things like that. Other less stringently ethical characters do things like that.

>>27343568
you gotta ask yourself, what would be the point of keeping either of them alive?

from the first movie they made it clear that this isn't some bullshit gijoe/DC/marvel universe where the badguy just mindlessly shoots into the air. People die, robots die.

>>27343612
Optimus Prime carries a Laser Rifle and Sword his 'code' is hypocritical and now he has moved beyond it.

You think if Michael Bay did what he was good at and had the movie made just with Lennox/Epps as the main guys, split half-and-half with Autobutt/Decepticrab drama, it'd be a much better trilogy? Plots may be still incoherent as fuck but would arguably be BETTER due to the lack of SAM and NONONONONONONONONONONONONONO WETNAPS I GOT WETNAPS FOR YOUR FACE

Sure, we'd probably complain about the overuse of humans, but everyone can agree the scenes where NEST did shit and blew shit up were just amazing compared to Sam's scenes.
>>27343612
Which Optimus?
G1? Rid? Armada? Energon? WfC? Prime?

Optimus was mercilessly killing the bad guys since the first movie, I have no idea why people are so surprised by him doing so in Dark of the Moon.

This movie is a solid C to me.

But not a movie I will ever have an urge to revisit.

>>27343612
yeah see, this is the problem, you have the mindset of Optimus being jesus christ, that just doesn't work in a more realistic setting.

They made it clear that both Megs and Sentinel needed to die, if not by Optimus then by the humans. Chances are they had waiting for the humans, those two might have had a chance to recover, which would be a no, no.
