    This is Optimus Prime.

    I was really hoping that they would at least keep him iconic.

    Hmmm...well he is still a semi truck, but can't say I agree with the color scheme. I wouldve thought it'd be a nobrainer to keep his original scheme, but then again perhaps the filmmakers though it wouldnt look good in a live-action movie. They coulda done better than flames though...perhaps, like bumblee, he'll get a makeover during the movie and will return to his original paint scheme. One could only hope.

    im too lazy to read through the entire thread.


    http://filmforce.ign.com/articles/726/726524p1.html

    here is the official list of transformers in the movie...

    Autobots

    Optimus Prime - "The king!"

    Bumblebee - "He's the same underdog character we always knew and loved." [Note: Except he's a Camaro in the movie.]

    Jazz - "He's eager to take on the Decepticons."

    Ratchet - "Ratchet, who was an ambulance in the cartoon, will appear in a new form."

    Ironhide - "The muscle. A tough soldier who can make any Transformer bust an o-ring just with his stare!"


    Decepticons

    Megatron - "He's been portrayed as pure evil but we're trying to get a little bit behind the evil in this movie. ... He has a slightly less idealistic version of what he thinks humanity is worth."

    Starscream - "Always secretly plotting to dethrone Megatron..."

    Brawl - "An extremely pissed off Decepticon."

    Bonecrusher - "The closest thing to a Constructicon in the film."

    Barricade - "The hunter of the group -- a cop car."

    Scorpinok - "Closest thing to Beast Wars or Dinobot in the film."

    Frenzy - "A smaller form able to infultrate spaces -- a stealth spy."

    Blackout - "The guy who takes out our ability to fight back."

    I don't like it either, but nobody makes flat-nosed rigs anymore, and they haven't been produced for over 10 years.

    Still, they could have made him from a few used trucks.

    I mean, should they bring back Rumble?

    no Soundwave? that was the coolest transformer of them all..

    i guess it would be difficult to turn a tape recorder into a 50 ft robot

    hopefully in a sequel.

    i think it would be difficult to scale a city and a launch base properly. same with Tyranus? (the large metal godzilla like deception that was a city as well)

    what would have been cool is if they did have some constructicons, stunticons, aerial bots, etc to form the mega-transformers. devastator etc

    Yeah I’ve gone to watching documentaries, independent, and foreign flicks. Hollywood is flat out of ideas.

    I hope there's going to be a GI Joe movie. Way better than Transformers.

    that's right, mf'er. :D

    yah. to mention tf w/o soundwave in the same paragraph is phocking ridiculous. a coworker and were joking around at work a few weeks ago talking to each other during the day in soundwave's voice. why not make him into an ipod or something?

    There is a script out there, I just don't know what the current plan is for that movie.

    Here's a link to the script review. There are tons of spoilers though: http://latinoreview.com/scriptreview.php?id=7
