    I called the number and left a message of alien activity outside of ATL!

    That sign reminds me of something that'd be in Fallout, and it makes me extremely happy. Haha.

    Also, I kind of wanted the Lambo to be a 'Con. I'd also like to have some Autobot fliers this time around for once.

    Only 2 buildings were taken down on 9-11. New York wasn't destroyed.

    Agreed. If the Dinobots rumor is true, swoop will be a flyer but id like maybe Springer as a chopper or even Powerglide as an A10. We all know Bay can get these as he has had them in all his movies.

    I don't really want any autobot fliers. I did like them in the cartoons, but the movie verse should stick them the decepticons as the fliers and autobots as a ground unit. I would love to see Grimlock in the movie, I personally was never a fan of the other dinobots, but Grimlock was one of my favorite transformers

    Imdb has never been a real good source for information, but I really hope this is true

    I think it was more of the general shock of aliens existing and being HOSTILE AS FUCK. Plus, which DOTM did you watch, lol? Chicago got RAPED. HARD. There were dead bodies everywhere, buildings destroyed, robot corpses all over the place... 9/11 is still remembered almost 15 years later, and it was a fucking skirmish compared to the shit that happened in DOTM (I mean no disrespect by that statement, BTW). It was an invasion that would cause propaganda like this.

    I love how they are spreading the message of Remember Chicago but not the Pyramids of Egypt...I mean yeah they were built to hide the Solar Harvester but they are still one of the great Wonders of the world, probably the top considering what was under it!

    Pity they didn't take the opportunity to do some viral marketing thing with the number and have a recorded message about being vigilant about aliens.
    Indeed. If I was the government I'd want to know if any alien activity is going on so I could investigate it. Better to cover all the bases than just ignore any Autobot activity. We can't forget that Sentinel Prime was an Autobot and look how that turned out.


    I'm assuming the big difference is a shitload of civilians will have died in the Chicago attack compared to the Pyramid battle.
    When the billboard says 'Remember Chicago' they're not so much telling people to remember the buildings, but the people that died there. That said, the 'Chicago' mention also means to remember the event that happened there, not specifically the city itself.

    Some old rubble got destroyed in Egypt. In the grand scheme of alien attacks it's not that important compared to an attack on a big populated city. Americans aren't going to care that much that something hundreds of miles away got trashed when something even bigger happened in their own country.

    Anyway, for all we know there's a 'Remember Egypt' billboard next to the ruined Pyramids.

    Perhaps the Pyramids have been restored since RotF. Maybe archaeologists have been busy exploring the broken open Pyramid since the Sun Harvester being hidden in there will be of historical interest. It's certainly going to rewrite some Egyptian history.

    Speaking of which, I wonder who got to keep the remains of the Sun Harvester? I imagine the Americans can't just lay claim to it since it wasn't uncovered in their country.

    I doubt it - it would be very uncharacteristic of Bay to tone down anything American in a transformers movie.

    I don't usually keep up with the tie-in comics or any other media to keep myself from spoiling the movies. I don't seem to recall what became of the Fallen's body and all the other Bots and Cons that got scrapped in Egypt. Maybe some exposition can be dropped as to what became of the robot remains in Chicago, especially Sentinel's and Megatron's. The cleanup crews would have had their work cut ouf for them and they would have to be under tight supervision from the government.
