I see the CineD interpretation as a fun alternative reading of the movies, but it really can't just be me wanting to see this right? That is bumblebee going for Optimus's face with a hammer, getting slapped away and the next try being a overhead swing aimed at Optimus's face again.

Are they planning on revealing what in the absolute holy balls the Nazi Buckingham Palace stuff has to do with anything, or will we have to wait until release date to see what the hell that's all about?

I hope not. I hope it still makes no sense on multiple rewatches. I hope we just randomly cut to Nazis exploding for a few minutes.

After his unfreezing he seems to have the upper hand on all those dudes. Like he tears autobots in half and beats Optimus down. He is only foiled when a teenager disobeys his Prime-daddy and chest rapes him with a box.

SirDrone posted:Can a fine Cinema Discusso Analyst please tell me the importance of the shot where a giant robot scorpion emerges out of nowhere and tears off a old guy's chest. It's a robot scorpion in the middle east that arrives on a simulacrum of a Sikorsky MH-53 with a hologram pilot standing in for the dead crew. Just as with Megatron being a proxy of Mikaela's dad, Scorponok is a proxy of these soldiers returning from the dead. Be careful: dismissive apathy will cloud your vision and confuse you that disliking something is the same as appraising its quality. The film is its own defense, for everything else, there's criticism. Criticism requires accuracy.

I'm pretty sure the scorpion is chasing them because they took a picture or saw too much, right? And it's defeated by the air support they call in by cell phone while hiding in a village? And there's some kind of subplot about the decepticons tapping military networks. There's all sorts of poo poo about the inversion of American power. Kind of makes sense in a movie where the villains want to awaken our machines and products. By the end of the fourth one Megatron has been re-manufactured as a product by a corporation, complete with iannic chest hole to devour and break Optimus' sword. I wonder what that means

Not officially confirmed, but it appears Optimus was talking to a Quintesson in the Superbowl trailer, based on this voice actor's profile. https://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/more-support-for-transformers-the-last-knight-the-maker-identity/37320/

It's gonna end with Unicron and the next one will have Primus. Two planet sized Tranformer Gods fighting it out. I'd have loved to see a well done Fortress Maximus and Autobot City hold off a world invasion.

It also establishes a way in which the humans can harm the robots in the future (Sabot rounds) which got around the initial established invincibility of them.

I just want to mention this post by Terry again because Megatron's new vehicle mode was revealed in toy form. https://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/possible-transformers-the-last-knight-megatron-prototype-images-surface/37350/ The MSJ fucked around with this message at 17:08 on Feb 17, 2017 |

Oh poo poo. Megatron is going to ascend and reclaim his angelic nature. He will be redeemed and maybe even the hero. Prime the villain he always was deep down. I would love it if Mark Whalberg asks the Quintessons (they have to be in the movie, have to) why and how they turned him only for them to say "Uhh we didn't do anything. He is how he is. A dick."

Be aware that a bunch of new toys have been revealed at Toyfair and they might spoil the movie as toys have been known to do. Alternatively, a couple of these toy characters might not even be in the movie. https://www.seibertron.com/transfor...otoyfair/37373/ Possible movie-relevant details: - Megatron's new alt mode as shown above but painted this time. It sort of resembles a Blackbird like Jetfire from Revenge of The Fallen. Jetfire defected from Decepticons to the Autobots like the original Jetfire, but also like the current comic book Megatron. -There is not one, but two dragons. One has 3 heads like the one we already saw in the poster and trailer, imaginatively named "Dragonfire". The other one is single-headed Steelbane, and his robot mode resembles a Warcraft character. And guess who won the Prime vote.

Finally got around to re-watching Revenge of the Fallen. I hated it when I first saw it but now I think it might be the best of the series. It's like the Bible with robomen.

I love all the unique designs on the robots, and stuff like Optimus leaving out "This is not your planet to rule" when he plays back "The fallen will rise again." Did Terry ever post anything about Age of Extinction? I love that the beginning of AOE mirrors ROTF, only the government agency is executing an Autobot instead of a Decepticon, and how in the beginning in Cade's garage Optimus mirrors Megatron down to the damaged face, and he's using Megatrons gun. Also, most of the remaining Autobots seem to absolutely hate each other. "I'm a fat ballerina who takes scalps and slits throats!" Ostiosis fucked around with this message at 09:08 on Feb 23, 2017 |

He's answered a PM from me or two but 700-page essays do not grow on trees. It's too bad, I liked Terry's perspectives and how she was still respectful of others opinions.
