    ALL Transformers become more aggressive in movies. Just look at the 1986 movie.

    I thought the most brutal thing he did was to Demolisher.
    Saying "PULL OVER!", THEN giving him a nanosecond to do so before shooting him without mercy xD!

    Hmmm I think i recall in an episode (maybe several) Prime giving Megatron mercy in G1 and letting him escape, so I've got to agree with you on that one.

    lol

    both of them were at times willing to give each other a form of earned mercy at times

    in primes case it would usually be his allowing megatron to make good on a attempt to escape or in megatrons case it would usually be his allowi9ng prime to go on living if only as his way to repay prime a debt megatron owed hi mat the time

    you ask me megatron ejoyed fighting prime almost as much as he enjoyed killing him in the end when it comes to the 80's cartoon

    I don't think that anyone hates Optimus (Bayformers version) because he's a badass, but rather because he acts out of character (with the 80's cartoon being for most fans the Optimus Archetype).

    Maybe there's a reason why...

    Optimus IS really bad-ass now. He's not "I won't fight if I can solve this problem peacefully" anymore, he's "I'm gonna tear your limbs off and beat you with them!" Sometimes I wonder why the big guy's so angry.

    Maybe someone close to Optimus was killed in the first battles of the war. Maybe he's upset about the state his home planet is in. Or maybe he just likes ripping off faces. I really would like to see a bit of back story for Prime in TF3, if just to understand why he's so wild.

    Back story for movie Optimus would be great in TF3!
    They would never let Prime solve a problem peacefully in the movie, unless it was with Galloway and humans ect. (for obvious reasons), I bet Bay will over look it for more explosions.
    "I know how we can make TF3 even more greater than the first two : MORE EXPLOZNS MAN! BIGGER DAN EVAAA"

    I'm not surprised by Optimus kicking major tailpipe in the second and third movies...he's friggin' OPtimus, that's what he's supposed to do. I was more surprised by Bumblebee kicking so much butt throughout all three.

    It was awesome!

    Even though before Transformers movies I wasn't much into it, I kinda expected the leader of Autobots to be some sort of a badass and Bumblebee to be a quiet, shy character, who prefers talks over fight. I was pleasantly suprised about Bee :D

    Remember that one episode of Transformers Prime where Ratchet started kicking ass by using Synthetic Energon? Well, movie Optimus drank like Eight of those.
