    The reason Optimus doesn't look like the other Primes is because he wasn't one of the original 13, just a descendent. After the 13 died, the title of Prime became more of a rank in the Autobots. Hence why characters like Optimus Prime, Sentinel Prime, and Rodimus Prime all share the same title, without being one of the original ones.

      Your Half Right it did become a rank type of deal after the Original13 had died.... But! .... On CyberTron once a Transformer gets/earns the rank of Prime that Transformer then goes to a special place on CyberTron and receive a charge/Blast of special Energon that upgrades them and makes their punches and kicks and blasters and metal body way stronger than the other Transformers...But Since CyberTron is no more a Transformer can't 100% become a Prime...which made Optimist and the Fallen the last 2 100% Primes

      Are you looking at this based on the lore in the movies or the actual comics/television shows. In most animated stories Prime's back story actually has him as one of the original 13 Primes being the last one born. This is also stated in Transformers: Covenant of Primus. The reason for his changed looks is because he chose to be reborn as Orion Pax without any prior knowledge of his life as a Prime.

    The reason for Prime's flames was because when making the first movie, red was still a really hard colour to film with digital cameras, which Michael Bay knew since he has experience with shooting car commercials as you said last time. The flames and orange gradient at the front were a compromise to help the CG artists get as much red into his design for his chest and arms, while still maintaining a majority blue truck.

    As a massive Transformers fan, this hurt, and they continued to hurt as time goes by, and somehow Bay managed to make worse ones.

    To clarify…. The Matrix of Leadership is the Key. The Key is a power source unlike any other. It is used to activate the Harvester (the machine in the pyramid). The machine harvests suns and the energy they give off. The machine then converts it into Energon, which is essentially the life blood, fuel, and energy resource that the Transformers use and live by. Hope this clarifies that part for yal

    i think the first one was helped by Spielberg being more involved, reigning in Bay's worst impulses. This one wasn't as good but i think audiences were a bit forgiving because it was known that the writers strike left them in a situation where they needed to get a script done in a hurry (apparently Bay locked the writers in a hotel over a 3 day weekend to bang out the pages). From the third one onwards, it just feels like Bay doesn't want to be making transformers and is doing whatever.
    hope at some point you'll watch the 1986 animated Transformers.

      Michael Bay actually locked his writers in a hotel (during the writer's strike) until he had a script he could use to start shooting. So, what writing we got was pure exposition and the rest of the movie is big big action. I still saw in in IMAX opening night. Still loads of fun for me even today.

    Holden Hardman, in this movie after the transportation Shia “burned” his hand and had it wrapped up. In real life he was in a drunken car crash and had lost one of his fingers from that hand and they reconstructed it with bone from his hip.
    They had to pause the filming from the injury and when he came back they wrote the injury into the movie to explain why he had to have bandages on it. Because no other character suffers any injury from the transportation
    Shia admitted to driving drunk, but he had a green light and it was someone that ran a red light that T-boned him and rolled his vehicle over

    -The Fallen built a machine on earth(in the pyramid) that destroys the sun to harvest energon
    -The Matrix was the key to activate the machine, and could also be used to reactivate Optimus.
    I also don't agree that Jetfire's explanation in the desert was boring or confusing. You see the original primes and how they came into conflict with the fallen over whether they would use the machine or not.

    6:10 the thing is, they added the flames for a reason. Back then cameras had a hard time processing the color red, so they’d have to diffuse it with another color. It’s also why in Tobey Maguire’s Spiderman films his webbing was silver instead of black. They tried the solid red and blue but the footage didn’t look as good. It also gave more flexibility on where Optimus is red in his robot mode.

    Hi Holden and Jen been watching you guys a long time but I don't think I've commented before. I loved your commentary/reviews on this one, I think you are both dead on with what you said and you articulated it much better then how most people just say it sucks and that's that. it *does* suck but at least you guys explained why. In response to Jen's concerns going forward, I know a lot of people hate the Mark Wahlberg ones but personally I think they are still much better than this one, so at least we got the worse movie out of the way nice and early. Also, Holden, you might already know this but the reason Soundwave sounds like Dr. Claw from Inspector Gadget is that they are the same voice actor, Frank Welker, and in the original cartoon Welker did the Dr.Claw voice for Soundwave and then a vocoder effect was used to make it sound robotic.For this movie they decided not to use the vocoder so now Soundwave just sounds the same as Dr. Claw.

      It's not some kind of law of fate. It's just that the Primes are on a different level from the other cybertronians. Megatron nearly killed Optimus in the first film because Optimus was weary from his long journey to Earth. In this film, he had two years to recover from that travel fatigue, which is why he was still winning even when he got jumped by three of the toughest decepticons while protecting Sam. If they hadn't jumped him AND used Sam as a sort of human shield to keep Optimus from focusing on the fight, they most likely would have lost to Optimus.
