    Aaah good old foley...a lot of the sounds were actually reused from previous movies like for instance when Bumblebee transforms or when Optimus steps or runs.

    In bumblebee at least, it seems to use the same modified transformation sound from the movie, the difference is that the transformation sounds like a 7th chord arpeggiation without returning to the first note while bumblebee' s humming sound holds out one note with vibrato to sound more natural or expressive.

    I remember hearing multiple cues on the sound design from previous movies, IIRC I could've sworn hearing starscream's screeching from the warehouse scene, starscream's or Meg's transformation sound, and some barricade noises while Bee and dropick were fighting.

    Which is a little nice homage IMO

    I don\'t think the narrator guy knows about the words Decepticons or Cybertronians since he, at least twice, refers to the fights as battles between Autobots.
    4:32 & 5:27 specifically.

    Not so sure it's a homage as much as reuse. Still works I suppose.

    Watching this, the sound stuff was interesting. But I also noticed they blurred Charlie's shirt on the beach. And looking at some pics around the internet it looks like she was wearing a Rolling Stones shirt that might have been removed.

    Can anyone tell me if she's wearing the rolling stone shirt in the movie?

    This was a very interesting video. It really gives you insight to how movies really do sounds for big budget films.
