What's this? My 'Hippy Sense' is tingling!
Thanks for seeing this though, this weirdest and most wonderful thread of all time.

What I personally get out of these films is drat unsettling. More than anything else, more than Sam's transformation to a sad and hollow shell, more than Megatron's arc as the true protagonist of the trilogy, I get the feeling that Optimus Prime is the god that we (Americans) deserve. A psychotic war god who falsely claims to want peace, disguises himself in the symbols of the common man, gives empty speeches about freedom and protecting our way of life, who then proceeds to mercilessly rip his helpless enemy's face off. And we love him for it and can't wait for him to do it again in Part 4. And that is scary as hell.
