We're facing war against a technological civilization" - line not in the movie?

Am I imagining things? Did Keller really not say the lines "We're facing war against a technological civilization far superior to our own! Our enemy can take any shape! They could be anywhere!" in the movie itself? Did they only appear in the trailer?

You are not imagining things...He never said the shape changing bit....Though he did mention something about the nature of the new threat...So it was only in the trailers....guess that was cut from the film...

Yea those lines were cut from the movie, probably because they remembered that by the time Keller realizes they're fighting against aliens, Frenzy's virus has already brought down nearly all forms of communications throughout the whole planet.

Yeah, I'm thinking that line was eitehr cut, or just a bit for the trailers.

Actually, this thread is an opportunity to mention a line I thought was funny, having recently watched it on Bluray. I love how Ironhide expresses to Optimus that they should not bother protecting the humans because they are primitive and violent, and Optimus says "Were we any different?" I was thinking "DUDE, Ironhide uses his cannons to do a cartwheel, when he could have just used his hands to propel himself, and he's calling us violent." I want to site that as another Dick moment for Optimus and crew. "No, you weren't any different, because you are still just as violent, and seeing as how you chopped another robot's head off and left his remains scattered across the freeway, I'd say you are the most primitive of them all"

Hahaha, yeah. I mean I love the movie, especially now in HD, but it's funny when you think about it. If I was there at the Observatory, I would have been like "Um, guys, we haven't destoryed our planet with a war just yet, so I think you might be talking out of your ass now"

Ha ha, yea you have to love movie logic some times.

Sort of like how the robots learned about humanity from the internet so shouldn't they figure humans are just porn, pirates, scams, and flaming each other over the darnest little thing?
