    Referencing G1 doesn't make it G1. It's simply an homage to the original, as most reboots are.

    So once again, I must use this link.

    I guess he'll have to start flossing now?

    I couldn't care less about him having a mouth. It's not G1.

    I liked how you tried to 1-up my fail with a bigger fail. LOL! Cute. =D

    All I'm saying is no one can use that excuse anymore. It was always weak defense, and now it's an even weaker.

    And personally, I don't care if it's not G1; I just care if it's good or not.

    Was there this amount of posts for Prime having a mouth after the first movie?

    Oh, I'm sure there were a ton of threads for that.

    Seriously, why is this a big deal? It's literally the most petty argument you could make against this film. What's next, people complaining about Carly being British?

    I wouldn't really even call it a mouth. Just a creepy movement/flexing of his face.

    The closest thing it reminded me of was this:

    I couldnt agree more. The mouth was fine. At least he didnt have a nose! Anyway its such a small issue compared to Shockwaves terrible demise.

    Oh, you. I bet you flirt like that with everybody.

    Maybe not broken yet, but that defense is starting to show it's age now.

    I think its funny that you call it a "defense". You act like you have a right to see Shockwave without his mouth. But you dont.

    He doesn't have a mouth, he just has parts of his face that move around. Sorta like how the Fallen's beard moved around by itself. Their movements don't match up with anything he says.

    I so hope you're joking, otherwise this may just be the single most ridiculous post ever on TFW.

    I already said I don't care if he has a mouth. I wasn't a big fan of it, but, but I didn't ruin my movie experience. I knew they were going to do that after I saw the first movie.

    I'm really just having some fun with it. For years people have been trolling 'This isn't G1' for varies reasons. And now that DOTM's story is several G1 episodes rolled into one; I guess in a small way, I'm just rubbing it in a little bit to all of those people who've said it.

    That's like Optimus Prime having a mouth.

    I was entirely fine with Shockwave having a mouth, I HATE the boxed head look. Where does he intake Energon, then?!

    And Shockwave having a mouth would be LEAST on my list of what the fuck they did wrong with the character.
