    This was kind of a blink-and-miss moment in the trailer, but it was awesome.

    It's going to be cool to see Barricade's return to fight Bumblebee. And this fight scene looks seriously insane.

    since this image only makes sence if bee is in his alt mode, can we assume he will use his arms in car mode like he did in tf animated !?

    No, he transformed his left arm out and fired at Barricade. Probably inspiration from TF Animated

    More than likely to get that "money shot" we always get throughout the movies.

    I wonder what BS they are gonna make up to justify him being alive after DOTM...

    If they even GIVE a reason for him being alive at all...

    I like to think that Barricade pretty much stole Starscream's ability to be near impossible to kill since that's a trait of Starscream that surprisingly didn't make it into the movies.

    Yes Bee will be in car mod and extend his arm Cannon to fire at Barricade while in the chase. But it's not the first time Bee has done this. Go back to DOTM in the beginning of the film when Bee, Dino Swipe and Que take out the Iranian nuke site. Bee extends his arm Cannon out of the top of his car mode to fire on the checkpoint.

    Well, there's three distinct ways to look at it.

    1. That wasn't Barricade, much like that wasn't Blackout, or Bonecrusher, or Brawl, or Sideways, etc.

    2. They didn't actually show him die, so he may have just escaped.

    3. It's the Goddamn Transformers movies. Are we really even going to entertain the notion of expectations for explanations of anything at this point? If they even act like it's the same Barricade, or allude in any way to his previous existence, I'll be shocked.

    I do love when TFs use their limbs/robot mode parts in alt mode. Especially how much TFA Bee used it. It solidifies that alt and robot mode aren't two seperate entities, but the same character.

    I'm sorry but I just find it funny to see the person standing there on the sidewalk in front of Barricade's front bumper. All you can see are the legs lol Like why aren't ya running pal :lol 

    But it'll be awesome to see Barricade back. I wonder though... if the Autobots and Decepticons join together with a temporary truce to fight the greater enemy Unicron... will we get a scene of Bee and Barricade fighting together despite their rivalry?

    I really hope this happens: barricade gets a decent amount of screen time and character development in last knight. Then survives to be the main antagonist of the bumblebee movie

    It wasn't even an established rivalry until they decided to bring Barricade back for this movie and really emphasize that he is the arch nemesis of Bee.
