What a fuckin let down, honestly.

To be honest I'm happy with all the designs so far expect Megatron, that's down right silly. Having Megatron look like the Guyver is ridiculous, someone in Michael Bay's art unit has been watching too much anime.

Pity about Soundwave, he was always the best Decepticon, it was almost as if he was to sneaky and to clever and "different" to the rest of the ranting megalomaniacs.

Well, I mean really. Do they have to X-TREME everything now? That un-related footage of "Optimus Prime" looked perfectly acceptable for a movie. Now it's all fucking retarded looking. LETS GIVE HIM XTREME FLAMES AND SHIT. A movie about robots != transformers. Basically, they just use the name to sell it and totally hack it up into something new. I spit at this movie. IRL.

You've got the touch! You've got the POWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Hopefully Bay can at least get the "Optimus on a war path" scene right.

The only thing that can save this film is to go completely CG.

This is why I love YTMND.

Basically there's a contest where fans can vote for a line to be spoken by Prime in the film and the winning submission (determined by their sole discresion of course) will be spoken by Peter Cullen in the film.

After only 2 days of voting, "Do a barrel roll" is the winning submission by a very clear margin, almost 2x as many votes ahead of the nearest contender. This was brought on by a small campaign by the YTMND community (as well as several others) to promote the submission.

Personally? I'd fucking bust a gut to hear Prime shout it during a battle. Alot of purists are up in arms about it though, alot of fan sites are furious.

Me? I'm loving every minute of it. Especially submission #5. Quote, and remember Prime would be saying this, "These pretzls are making me thirsty!" PLenty of quality in the list alone. "First we crack the shell, then we crack the nuts inside." haha!
