I'm sitting at work watching ROTF, and the scene where he went nuts in his astronomy class and started writing Cybertronian on the chalkboard and talking about energon, I vaguely overheard something about Sentinel Prime. If only just the name. Sorry if this was once mentioned before. But it finally caught my ear. I have it on DVD, but I'm watching it right now on FX, so if anyone wants to go back and give it a listen for confirmation?
"14 galactic convergences it took for the Sentinel Prime expedition to get an echo on it's signal". This is what he said I believe. Correct me if I am wrong.
Oh wow... Just when I thought the only thing tying ROTF to DOTM was the videogame... That's pretty awesome. Thanks.
You still have only one thing connecting ROTF to DOTM because the two video game tie-ins have nothing to do with one another. They're made by different developers, run on different engines, and play much differently.
Yeah I was only referring to the DOTM video game being the only connection between the ROTF & DOTM movies.. Well until I heard Sam mention Sentinel Prime of course.
I wonder what that line means. Even though I doubt it was a clever idea to have it foreshadow DOTM I'm sure we could implant logic to it like good fans.
The tie-in comics imply that the "expedition" in question was a mission led by Sentinel to find and teleport a sun into Cybertron's system.
