I like it. It shows they have emotion and take extra measures when a battle is upon them. And who wants damage to the face?
They are a robot race that isn't fighting 24/7...just like when we go to war, we put on helmets...it's a movie trying to cater to about a dozen different audiences...try to remember that.

That's not an adequate explanation - comparing squishy PUNY HUMANS with robots isn't necessarily the most fair of comparisons.
I think we need to delve of some possibly unexplored facets of the movie Transformers to get our answer to this interesting question. For example, is there any evidence of the Transformers having any form of social interaction with one another that would require emotion?
Am unsure of this, so I eagerly await A reply.

I have no idea why you're talking about the TV when this is the movie forum.
I have no idea what your second comments means, please enlighten me.

Just a comparison. In the movie script, the Transformers native language essentially sounds like a computer modem dialing up(think AOL).

Does that mean there's no evidence of 'social' interaction? If so, I believe the topic poster has a strong case.

Correct. I still want human faces, not "kibble faces" as Skywarp-2 stated.

We're already blessed with the the majority of the robots having a human body (two arms, two legs, head and walking upright)
Now we want the face to look human and to show mouthparts and other facial expressions to satify our need for emotion? Are we that stupid to not guess what the character is feeling if we can't see his mouth move?
Moreover, how many times will you need to see a robot from this movie and learn that it isn't EXACTLY like G1 and a crossover attempt to pay homage to that series, gain a diverse audience, and most importantly CONVEY THE SENSE OF REALISM BY SHOWING THESE ROBOTS ARE AN ADVANCED ALIEN RACE.
I believe some of you cry yourselves to sleep because the robots don't look exactly like people with painted faux metal faces and blocky metal appendages.

Because, they're TRANSFORMERS, not just aliens. They were built, not born. Lastly, this is a TRANSFORMERS movie, so it should represent all that came before. This "new generation" bull is by people who don't like Transformers as it is and want to change it. The copyright stuff is bull, too, because Bay can use anything Hasbro has used before because with the rights to make a movie, he got the right to temporarily use Hasbro's material legally.

Well, G1 was mostly a crap kids cartoon, as was everything else (Though with varying levels of crap), so, no, you're wrong.

No, Transformers still has a story with a certain look and story set-up, all of which has been ignored. The story can be made serious, instead of being changed to unrecognizable levels. IDW's Infiltration and Escalation are just a small example. The look could, and should, still resemble the original characters, or even Transformers at that. Optimus is the only one who resembles his namesake. Things could've been done, but weren't.

Nope. 2 ganging up on one. "Back up" shows that I have you cornered.
Well, I'm gonna go get some air. Maybe I'll find some good yard sales while this topic is driven off subject.

Congratulations, you have no idea how debate works!
If two people agree on a topic, naturally, they're going to ally themselves against a common opponent.
