    Looks like Beast Wars Megatron was cut from the film. Shit!

    My guess would be that the space bridge (which seems to double as an actual ship of sorts since it moves around) and transwarp key are basically the Terrorcon versions of the Harvester and the Matrix. Go planet to planet, set up for Unicron, party hard and party fast, planet goes down the hatch, rinse and repeat. Maximals probably stole the key (after failing to save their planet?) and used it to take the bridge to Earth so that no one would suffer the same fate as them, forcing the Terrorcons to take the long way there to reclaim it while Unicron bided his time (not taking the long way with them to conserve energy maybe?). Hope this is how it goes in the film cause it’s probably the most simple and straightforward route they could take in terms of background exposition dumping.

    As I recall, it was Offroad Prime and Offroad Bumblebee in California, and they were driving off a paved road into a wooded area. That's all we saw, however.

    It was a TFW2005 newspost, but I forget the month.

    Tried to find it, can't find any trace of the thing I'm thinking of. Might be a combination of being confused over the addition of the bullbar on Prime as well as the Mandella effect.

    They filmed in California? I didn't know, I thought they only filmed in Peru, Brooklyn, NY and that one volcano country (can't remember the name).

    It makes sense now. Yes I remember seeing some small cars (filming rigs?) on the setup of the filming areas.

    You might be thinking of this: Transformers Rise Of The Beasts – Bumblebee, Optimus Prime, Scourge, Orange Truck And More From Filming Location In Cusco

    So there's a chance that the Wheeljack x Arcee sex jokes are still going to happen? Bugger, because if there was anything that needed cutting out from the film it should've been the sex jokes, and not the Decepticon bus battle.

    And the question as to how the Terrorcons came into existence, being unanswered, is somewhat concerning.

    Yes, the leaker told me there is one sexual joke but it’s not really crude or anything. More like a “fly over kids head” kind of joke.

    Don't think he ever was. The 4chan script that mentioned Gnashteeth was confirmed fake by the person that posted it. They took the legit leak and added bits based on it.

    It was a theory based off the concept art that people at that one private Paramount event saw. Scourge's design was shown in a shadow so folks were trying to interpret what they could see from the fuzzy look at the design. The dragon was just a guess, but never confirmed. Same with the beard on fire rumor.

    Why would the Terrorcons origins not being addressed be concerning? They're just another group of Transformers.

    Honestly? I think these leaks sound fine. Nothing groundbreaking, nothing to write home about, but fine. Provided that the rest of the movie is at least solid, I think that, at best, it'll be a fun time with some friends and, at worst, it'll be a headache.

    despite being on ignore might as well address this.

    Because generally you want to actually introduce the villians of your film and tell the audience who tf they are.

    Wheeljack x Arcee is just dumb.
    If it was something like Arcee x Airazor or Arcee x Optimus it would be alright, because Airazor or Optimus aren't really unsightly even if Optimus looks off. I just think it is dumb for an ugly character to be canonically shipped with a character that has good design.
