    I remember something like that, the guy said something like "All of the Whitwiccans are Dead"

    Are you guys sure that they mean Knight Order of Whitwiccans = Whitwicky??

    till Optimus kicked ass and called names. We thoroughly enjoyed. I wish it was more robots and less human. And Michael Bay has to get over his sexy British gal fetish!

    I thought he was quoting Scarface until he added 'Bumblebee.' But then again, to me it sounded like "Say hello to my little friend... Bumblebee."

    That's what I'm saying. I saw it more than once. When you view it more you start to enjoy the good parts. I've gone from being dissapointed to obsessively thinking about the good parts.

    I am not going to take the time to right a full review because this movie already stole 2 and a half hours from me. It had glimpses of becoming a better Bot vs Con movie but that quickly vanished and it turned into another Michae Bay shit show.

    Save your money. Glad this is Bay's last movie but sadly not the last movie in this terrible universe. They need to wipe the plate clean and start over. Leave the overly human components out and focus on the bots

    HORRIBLE MOVIE. No explanation for Megatron's miraculous reappearence. Awful use of Unicron. The earth is not going to Transform into a planet eater so they've already ruined him. Dinobots simply disappeared. Beyond disappointed.

    Sure, I get that but without doubt they should have been working towards a series end planet eater AKA 1986. Instead they brought Cybertron to earth to brush its hair lightly... Massive opportunity missed.

    I kind of hope that an upcoming film does what X-Men Days of Future Past did and soft reboots the series, because:
    1. Pretty much most of the major Transformers (and especially Decepticons) are already dead.
    2. There are really dumb plot points like humans being against all Transformers despite Optimus and the Autobots publically saving the whole Earth several times.
    3. The only way we are going to see Earth fully transform into Unicron proper would be in a throwaway timeline.
    4. This whole thing about Transformers being a constant throughout all of history is super inconsistent with the first movie and would make way more sense in a new timeline.
    5. If they are thinking of spinning off other Hasbro franchises from the movies, Earth is super messed up, and some people who might want to see a G.I. Joe movie would probably not want to sit through 12+ hours of TF movies to figure out why Earth is so weird.
    I'm kind of in a weird place where I don't want the films to fail in fear of them sinking the franchise, but at the same time, I don't believe that we will get better movies without a film using the current TF movie formula failing.

    People are just jumping to conclusions.
    Sam's Ebay photo was among the order of Witwikkans, and Burton said that most of them are dead.

    So there's an implication but nothing solid. Key word is MOST. Most is not all.
    Sam could still be alive but just out of the picture.

    It's important to remember that most of our questions wouldn't exist if this were a good film.

    Assuming you know who and/or what Solus and Quintus are, along with their capabilities. I have no idea who Quintus is and I've been a fan/collector since the beginning, I'd hardly expect the casual movie-goer to know who they are or what that means.

    I saw the red mark on Meg's face and made the same assumption (of course they make it difficult to see the mark as they barely show his face long enough to actually see anything and we are left to assume it is the same thing that happened to Prime), but that is a big assumption based on absolutely no concrete evidence and I shouldn't have to guess on something like that. That needed to be spelled out.

    Also, how did Megs get to Cybertron in order to see Quintessa and receive his upgrade? It took Prime 2-3 years of space travel to get there and he has rocket boosters, Megs/Galvy did not have any way to get to Cybertron the last we saw him.

    I find it weird that no one was willing to "fill in the blanks" back during ROTF and DOTM, but now everyone is filling them in for TLK. This whole Megatron thing needed to definitely be in the movie, but everyone is just happy to say "obviously he just met up with Quintessa at some point!"

    Enjoyed it... but definitely not the best movie of the bunch.

    - Was that Stanley Tucci as Merlin?
    - Liked the idea of Cuba being a refuge for Cybertronians, wouldn't mind a movie/Cartoon based on that idea TBH
    - Good way to explain Peltz not being in the movie.
    - Con's were bland and wasted
    - Too much shouting
    - Not bad way to shoehorn Simmons in, it kinda worked TBH
    - Where did Bee suddenly get his voice from?
    - Having seen a lot of the stuff from filming, it's clear that there was an insane amount of stuff cut...

    The way they edited around that was cringe. "We're going home Izzy!" The human parts of the final battle were chopped to sh#t.

    Very true.
    We wouldn't have all these questions; wouldn't have to assume, conclude, or invent explanations.

    It's not obvious to me.
    There was a great distance between Quintessa and earth, with some serious commute time involved.
    If that gulf could be so easily be traversed then a space bridge wouldn't have been needed.

    Never mind that Cybertron was disintegrated into dust in movie 3...

    I've been able to enjoy the past films despite their flaws, but not this time. The humor, the action, all fell flat. And the plot... Well, I see enough's been said about that. This was the first one I've seen in theater, and it's a stinker. Disappointing.

    And Nitro Zeus? A better name for a Pacific Rim jaeger, or a pro wrestler, I think.

    Well to tell you the truth:

    We all know what awaits us when we go see a Transformers Michael Bay Movie.

    Everyone here knew that there would be some Questions and Plot Holes.

    But for me, TF4 and TF5, followed by TF3, are far the best Movies ever made.
    If i compare TF4 and TF5 with TF1 (Blurry, short fights and so on), TF1 looks like crap compared to Part 4 and Part 5.

    The Robots have more Personality AND SCREEN TIME.

    Sure i also was a little bit sad about these 2 Things:

    1) Stanley Tucci as Merlin AND NOT AS JOSHUA
    > I thought KSI would be back!

    2) As People already say: Cons have Personality but are WASTED as Cannon Fodder

    Everything else was awesome; Preparing the TF Cinematic Universe for the Unicron Battles, the Movies got better Animations and Graphics
    everyhing is going into the right Direction.

    Optimus Prime is just perfect Designed as he is now!

    I want to see Quintessa and Unicron in TF6 in hope this Dream will come true,
    A Complete Reboot would ruin the entire Series to me, just like they did with Spiderman.

    Amazing Spider was the best; when they rebooted, my Reaction was "Nooooooo please, NOOOOOO"
    Andrew Garfield was the best Spiderman ever.

    Same here: Best Optimus Prime and Designs ever, a Reboot would ruin the Upcoming Unicron Battles completely, as i really want to see Quintessa, Optimus, Bumblee Bee and Unicron
    in the next Movie
