    Ok.. Alot of people are arguing over who Lockdown is talking to in regards to the "You think you were born? You were built and they want you back!" line...

    is it Galvatron? or is it Prime?

    I personally thought at first it was Galvatron but upon further inspection of the TV Spots and the "They want you back" line.. I now believe it's actually Optimus Prime he's talking to.

    Of course we will never know until we've seen the actual movie but here are some reason's I believe it's Prime he's talking to. (Not actual 100% evidence but it's worth a mention anyway)

    This shot is from the "Villian" TV Spot and it shows Lockdown walking towards Prime. He see the house to the left and his ship on the top right. Prime is on the bottom right correct?

    [​IMG]

    This is from today's 'Built/Born' TV Spot notice the house and his ship? Pretty much the same distance as the top picture and i think Lockdown is looking at Prime who is against the car

    Now another point is why would Lockdown say that line to Optimus/Galvatron?

    Galvatron

    * Lockdown somehow knows Galvatron is built from Humans and taunts him saying "You think you are born? You were built and they want you back"

    Optimus Prime

    * We all know Lockdown is a bounty hunter right? But who hired him is a still a mystery. If Lockdown was indeed talking to Prime it opens up a few possibilities example; The Quintessons. It makes sense right? They 'built' the transformers and they want him back for what he and the autobots did to Cyberton!
    ^ This makes more sense to me so it's also why I think he's talking to Prime

    Again we can't 100% confirm who he's talking to until we see the movie but i'm going to say he was talking to Prime. Leave you're thoughts below and try not to fight please! haha

    Cheers, Jet :thumb

    Optimus didn't destroy Cybertron. Bumblebee destroyed the control pillar which destroyed Cybertron.

    I was more thinking about how Sentinel wanted to restore Cyberton and Prime refused to let it happen. So really 'Prime and the Autobots' then

    I agree. Besides, Galvy should've been gone by the time Lockdown walks up to Optimus, given what we've heard so far.

    yes! :dj  :rock  :bay  There's no way in hell people can say "its more of the same" when the tv spots alone show there's WAY more of a robot story going on here.

    I'm sure KSI pulled Galvatron out before Lockdown got in arms reach.

    I think they tried to do this as we know they have a sence. where optimus is fighting galvatron and is getting beat and Stanley Tucci character is screaming for them to get galvatron out of there. I think Galvatron is on the floor as prime gets shot and lockdown is walking over so has little involvement in sence, the team could then pull him out as lockdown talks to prime

    ill tell you why he's not talking to Galvatron, because Galvatron is not sentient at the time so there is no need to talk to him and being Galvatron is no sentient at the time, he would not know he's not "alive" anyway right? Besides, Galvatron isn't even there when lockdown says his line. It looks as if he's been pulled back by then.
