    That movie was excellent. It captured the magic of the first movie and combined it with G1. I am beyond pleased with this movie.

    I loved seeing the G1 bots. Optimus, Bee, Arcee, Ratchet, Ironhide, Wheeljack, Brawn, Cliffjumper, Shockwave, Soundwave, Ravage, Starscream, Skywarp, Thundercracker and Bitstream. Some of the bst scenes in the movie were the ones on Cybertron.

    I beg of Hasbro to make some of these characters in their G1 forms for the studio series

    It’s a shame that it has to go up against Aquaman. That said, the word of mouth advertising Paramount hopes to get from this pre-screening should generate the buzz that this film deserves.

    Seriously, WTF does Hasbro have against CJ.
    You know what, frag you Hasblo.:banghead: 

    As much as I want to see this, they pulled a freaking Bay right off the bat. Couldn't they have killed BulkHound? It would have been far more meaningful.

    First and foremost, I may or may not have let out a fanboy squeel when "The Touch" came on at the beach.

    Its weird how Cliffjumper has went from "little asshole who pulls conspicuously big F U guns out of thin air" to "last Autobot standing who dies bravely".

    I like how they blended what Bay had done. Sector 7 and agent Simmons, S7 being based at the Hoover Dam, Bee becoming a Camaro.

    Hailee Steinfeld is such a beautiful girl.

    No basically Charlie used to be a really good diver and then stopped after her dad died. Later in the movie her, BB and Memo go to a cliff where a bunch of kids are hanging out and partying. While Charlie is out of the car, BB opens the door to push her forward since he knows she can dive and then plays "The Touch".

    Optimus never transformed on Cybertron, I wonder if he we'll get a figure.

    Or will they just do the Earth Mode version.

    All this positive buzz got me all kinds of fucked up. It’s just so damn nice to have an actual good transformers movie. Why an entire decade was wasted on Bay and his band of chucklefucks, I’ll never know.

    Ah, okay, I remember that scene. I just didn't pay attention to who the agent was. Thanks!

    They pulled a prime. :rolleyes: 

    Seems like this is like....well I don’t know what it is, it’s like it’s the bayverse, but it’s not.

    There are distinct story points that set it apart, but the characters are all still there from th bay films.

    It’s the definition of an alternate universe, same characters, same field, different game.

    They could do a cross-promotion and include a tube of Krazy Glue.
