.......... Optimus??? *spoilers*

Motto: "I'm at the wrong airport!"
Weapon: Fusion Cannon
Bloodthirsty Optimus??

Uh.. No.. Not IMHO..



Megatron: This is MY planet

*Attacks Sentinel*

Megatron: NO... We need a truce... All I want is to be back in charge.. Besides, who would you be without me?

Optimus: Time to find out


Ok, He wants a truce but wants to be in charge.. Uh, yeah what about sharing control or something like that? No, IMHO Megatron was NOT being humble, the truce he offered was bullshit unless he got his way. And he was being a cocky prick with his last statement.
Optimus did what he had to do against a tyrannical individual that wanted to rule.

Sentinel: Optimus... [spoiler]All I ever wanted was the survival of our race.. you must see why I had to betray you..

Optimus: You didn't betray me, You betrayed yourself.

Sentinel: NO OPTIMUS!!


The bastard deserved it for what he did.

Whole thread = THIS.

Sentinel killed Optimus's oldest friend. And didn't even have the courtesy to let him say goodbye. That bastard. :evil:

And Megatron killed Optimus in ROTF. Is he supposed to let that go unpunished?

Optimus: I...am nobody's bitch!

Agreed x100. I just don't see why its so hard for people to accept what happened. I'd like to see how others would have reacted if there mentor murders thier best frined, as well as betrayed everything they stood for. And i don't know wabout you, but i'm not so willing to accept a truce from someone that also offed one of my frineds, as well as me!! sorry, but there's no trusting someone of that nature.

P.S., oh, and Cyber Bishop, I think there's a slight spelling mistake in thw thread title good buddy. ;)

I have no problems with OP's behaviour.

MY problem is with how little Megatron got to do with his awesome new Alt. mode.

Prime absolutely did the right thing by killing Megs immediately. Megs wasn't expecting it, and Prime needed that advantage since he had already lost an entire arm and had his other speared by Sentinel. He saw the opportunity and he took it because he might not have won a protracted fight. And I doubt the remaining autobots still could have taken Megatron down themselves. Or if they could have, it'd have cost them dearly.

While I haven't read the book, the ending there does sound intriguing and I would like to actually read it to find out the differences. But Megatron, portrayed in the movie as he was, needed to die. There would have been no peace unless it was on his terms. He clearly shows that just before Prime slags him.

I don't have a problem with what Optimus did.

It was the prudent thing to do, really.

However, it's the portrayal of the Autobots at large and Optimus in particular that is grating to me.

Sure, the Autobots fight for freedom and the protection of humans, but when they are better, more efficient killers than their evil counterparts (despite being massively outnumbered), it makes the whole war (and movie) seem like an exercise in "who gets the coolest death scene?" with no suspense whatsoever; do we ever seriously believe the good guys are in peril? 50 Decepticons fall to every Autobot casualty (I didn't actually calculate this ratio, by the way).

I found myself wishing more Autobots died....that's a weird thought, hoping more good guys die.

The saddest I felt over any death in these movies was Scorponok since he actually was one tough S.O.B. and he seemed so happy just crawling around in the desert.
