    I tend to find it irritating when I know it's possible to write a good TF story. I mean, look at some of the comics and TV series'.

    They spent hundreds of millions on the TF movie franchise and the best they can do is a story arc involving a frozen Megatron being responsible for several very long term and contradictory evil schemes, while serving two (at least) completely different masters who apparently never knew about each other.


    I'm still convinced that the real reason they got rid of movie Bumblebee's voice was because it was easier than having to write dialogue for the main human 'hero's' Cybertronian buddy. A bit of a letdown after the wisecracking 'Bee from Animated.

    Half the time, it seemed that they were simply cutting and pasting dialogue from other movies. They actually ripped the conversation between Megatron and the Fallen during ROTF straight out of Star Wars!



    I suppose that after the first three movies TF4 isn't quite at the top of my Most Anticipated Movie list. But King Grimlock and Lockdown may persuade me to change my mind.

    It's not ruled out that they'll add color before release, but he does have color already . . . if you look closely, when he busts through that gate (Grimlock), on his neck is a gold, and a red color hidden in between gray plates of armor . . .

    And on the preceding shot, where Optimus does the "charging move" with his sword of justice, you can notice some green overtones on the gray pieces on him (on Grimlock).

    To be honest, I think they missed a trick not calling the dual headed dragon thingy Doublecross. Since, y'know... Doublecross IS a dual headed dragon thingy.

    Is that the one where his head turns into a big cannon? That's at least different. If they make him into a good toy, I'll certainly be in the market.

    Listen man...

    Now you say it like that..I rewatched it a few times, and it very possibly may not just be a gunface.

    Watch...your right dude..its like he may drop down and grab the ground with his arms,...maybe he's not walking still, and hes really kinda "plopping" down?

    I REALLY hope that's the case..that would be SO awesome.. Mabye that is Gavlatron and Lockdown it the new sideswipe looking guy..

    Anyways..I kinda see it..its not just a gunface..he may actually TF into a field piece...
