What if they had to adopt them to blend in because they're in another time. And that's when Bay introduces Hot Rod - because, you know, what makes a better Hot Rod than an actual hot rod? I know, now I'm sounding crazy. Just watch Michael Bay put something like time travel in as just a lame daydream of the main character, to tease us with just a glimpse of something we always wanted but will never ever have: A retro-styled live action Transformers movie. But that's way off-topic...
Time travel. If that's what it is, I called it.
Hmm... I think your on to something. I've notcied that all the cars in that shot were of 70's era and older. Good eyes.

Yea, about as far fetched as a
MOVIE about alien transforming robots.
Being a sci-fi Nerd to the Nth degree, I am all about time travel, BUT I am going to call BS on the time travel thing...
1) We're talking Michael Bay here
, waaaaaay to complex for him to tackle
2) Being from Texas, having lived near all the places they are filming for several years and going through little Texas towns like that... When you drive through any little towns like that it FEELS like you are going back in time...the store fronts, the people AND THE CARS!!! Go through any old Texas town and you will see MORE than your fair share of classic vehicles...some are restored, some are rust buckets but all in all it's detached from the modern world and flavor.
I have said it once, I will say it a MILLION times out here...Speculate ALL YOU WANT... but I will be the first to say you're all wasting your time, energy and setting yourself up for disappointment. You want to speculate?? Think of anything and everything WE want as fans in the movie...now go the opposite direction. I am far from a Bay-hater, but I know the movies will never be THAT nostalgic for the G1 crowd. We cant be lucky enough to have a director that grew up watching the cartoon and playing with the toys...I have to be glad for JJ Abrams and Joss Whedon and everything they do for that kind of "fuzzy, warm" feeling.
If the Dinobots ARE in the movie and if they are anything BUT DINOS...Bay can go choke on a T-Rex D&%k!!
