    I agree, perhaps Optimus WAS real in that scene. I mean, it could be a model like they did for BB in the first movie. I mean, Sam directly interacted with his entire body. It looked a little too real.

    Ebay:
    AGREED!

    And as for TF-ROTF

    The Scene where Megatron goes of into space, taking out a sub I think? Then "chit-chatting" with his old "Friend".

    From the First Movie: Optimus' first transformation and 'Are you Samuel James Witwicky' line. *shivers*

    Two Scenes From ROTF: 1) Sideswipe's 'Damn, I'm good' scene. BEST MOMENT EVER! Gave me the chills too during his transformation and slicing up Sideways. 2) Optimus coming back to life. It was not just the way how it looked, but the way how it happened. The whole coming back to life thing was incredible, including that massive gasp for air and the glowing optics. Man, that was really amazing!

    I'll say it again, a shot is not an entire scene. It's a small, short sequence of any given scene. Prime giving Starscream a kick to the face is a shot, the entire battle is not.

    TF1:The "shot" when Starscream jumps over
    that Hoover Dam bridge thing.

    ROTF: When Sam shoved the Matrix into Optimus,
    the music was just like "Wow".

    Though I am trying words can't explain it.

    Oh, I'm not gonna lie... watching Optimus Prime get airdropped from a plane in RoTF was quite possibly one of the coolest fucking things I've ever seen in my entire life.

    2007 -- Toughie... I'll go with Barricade's confronting Sam.

    ROTF -- Optimus Prime taking on the Decepticons in the forest.

    The scene where Frenzy infultrates Sector Seven and releases Megatron,
    all the while saying: "MEGATRON!MEGATRON!MEGATRON!" From the first Live action film.
    I've watched that scene several hundred times. :p 

    ROTF: Where Sam shouts: "OPTIMUS!!!1" With his shrill, squeaky boyish voice that makes me sick to my stomach. :p

    Again (for the third time), a SHOT is one specific short sequence. Ironhide's helix twist is a shot, the entire Brawl fight scene is not. So everyone saying "Forest Battle" or any other full scene is "terribly misinformed" of the definition of a shot.

    TF1 - When Optimus transforms infront of Sam. It was an incredible scene, gave me goosebumps.

    ROFT - I had alot of favorite shots. Optimus firing a round off at Megatron in slow motion. Optimus in the forest on one knee saying, "You won't stop at one.....I'll take you all on!". Optimus ripping Grindor's face in half (totally kick ass and brutal). I also like the Sideswipe shot where he slices through Sideways like warm butter. It was awesome.

    TF1 - Barricade or Bonecrusher's transformation were just fantastic.

    ROTF - Ironhide's transformation at the beginning (in sync with the NEST theme) and Jet-Prime's "Let's roll!" gave me the chills I remember as a kid watching Beast Wars.

    The scene in the first movie where prime rolls up to the final battle through the alleyway and there is a circleing shot of him transforming. The best part is when he puts up his fists, at the end of transforming, in the fighting stance. THis visual eyecandy combined with the music gives me chills.

    Erm. A tie between Prime's first transformation and Starscream taking out those Raptors and The forest battle. Epic and so sweet.

    TF: Starscream transforming and landing by a tower thing on Hoover Dam.

    ROTF: Probably Devastator transforming.
