    Thanks...but if anything, I think the films actually have the opposite problem. There are too many different thought processes going into the movies. And I really like the movies, but I think there were things that, however well intentioned they may have been, resulted in some things being less than ideal. The "Writers' Room," for instance, may very well have been well intentioned and tried to make connections, but it ended up disregarding previously established concepts and characters.

    Out of the main villains, definitely Lockdown. Sentinel is probably my second favorite.

    Voted Lockdown, Sentinel, Laserbeak, and Megatron. They had some good moments that made them threatening and/or compelling, and therefore entertaining.

    DiBonaventura trumps them all, though.

    I think he was easily my favorite human character in any TF movie.

    He was pretty good. Definitely came across as more menacing than Lockdown.

    I like to think sometimes that this is set in the same universe as Cheers/Fraiser and he changed his name and became a villain.

    Insert "my favorite villain from the bayverse was bay himself" joke here

    Nah, Lockdown was probably the most memorable, not not only for the gun face thing.

    Lockdown was definitely the coolest/the one I'd want to come back most of all.

    Laserbeak is a close second for being a legit creepy bastard.

    But I adored Nitro Zeus and really hope he gets to be in other TF canons in the future. I want more Nitro.

    Dammit, this list is making me sad because I can’t even put the main villain of the freakin TF franchise as my number one (or even in my top five, tbh). Wtf, Michael Bay.

    It’s a tie between Sentinel and Lockdown, I guess. two of the villains who are actually kind of interesting.

    Easily Sentinel Prime for me. His betrayal came out of nowhere, and he actually had a motivation behind his actions instead of just being evil for the sake of it.
