hmm...trypticon eh? thats a better guess than the first thing that popped into my head.

GALACTUS!

hehe

The Ferrari will be a Decepticon. IF that's true, it's disappointing. And the name is just stupid. Definitely something Bay would come up with. So I think he's just making it up. And whatever that huge thing will be, it's nothing that resembles any Transformer I've seen.

Otherwise, I'm looking forward to the space stuff, the fights, Shockwave, Megatron (f**k Starscream, I wish he died in the first film) and probably Ironhide dying. I just hope they don't waste it and make him a badass to the end like Dinobot in Code of Hero.

Oh come on now dinobot was epic lol. Probably my favorite character ever. Anyways I also believe Ironhide will die (by shockwave's arm/gun) and I also f**king hate this version of starscream. I usually love him and his treachery but cant stand him in these movies. So ugly looking. And weak. And disappointing. And I'm not sure what to believe about this Ferrari. And I think trypticon will be in this movie.

I'm stoked!

I hope Ironhide doesn't die, he is one of my favorite characters. But if he does, it should be by Megatron, in a similar fashion to the original movie. That would be awesome!

That's exactly right.

But honestly, I'm going against my instincts and am looking forward to this film. I'll give it the benefit of the doubt and if its crap, well, its crap and I can rant about it till I'm blue in the face.

I'm doing a lot of hoping lately, so I'll extend some of that hope over to this thing.

* There will be no dorky humor ("We wanted to make the movie much more serious, more adult.")

* When a robot dies, it will actually die. And that death will be shown onscreen.

* Starscream and Shockwave will have new companions. "The scale on one of them is jaw dropping" - "It will be 'what the Hell was that thing?"

* There will be no army. Chicago is left in the hands of the Autobots (but some heroes sneak in through the back-door so to speak).

* The human gliders are used because they slip under the Decepticons' radar - as do humans - so they'll be the people who can hammer it to the 'Cons and create an opening for the Autobots.

1) "A" Space race. Not "The" Space race. Hmmm.
2) As somebody else has said: "Nascar with mullet".
3) A robot that actually dies will be shown on screen, but the Twins don't make the final cut.Hmmm.
4) "Starscream and Shockwave" but not "Megatron" or "the Decepticons".
5) Something is gonna have to take out that invasion fleet. Or does it?
6) Killing the invasion commander alone won't stop the invasion, just promote a new commander,and since there's no invisible Human army to turkeyshoot the whole Decepticon Empire remnant once and for all, what's the Autobot objective? In fact, what's the point of the Decepticons leveling Chicago? Was Chicago built on a Native American burial ground that had hidden another SunHarvester in the toolshed teepee?
(RESPECTfully to the Native Americans without a shadow of hesitation).

Of course, maybe the inabilty to detect Humans is a Wheeljack invention.Or a partial Decep handicap amplified by a Wheeljack invention.Spray-type maybe,either bodily applied or sprayed into the atmosphere via Stratosphere/the N.E.S.T carrier- or a sensor-scrambling device.

Assuming it's wheeljack.
In more than just name.

Also, assuming Deceps can't detect Human equipment-Bluetooths,Cellphones etc.

Maybe they're drones.
But they're not all drones, so wtf?

Ratchet walked straight into the power line in TF1.
But he sensed the Pheromones on the boy.He knew they came specifically from Sam, directed towards Mikaela, in a city alleyway full of random information.
Yet 'Bee can hear every radio channel at once, hotswapping and mixing them at high speed to string together messages,and Soundwave can monitor every phonecall from orbit, so they can definitely detect the digital frequencies that carry Human frequencies, and the Human frequencies within them (phone lines, Skywalker sound,Digital remastered music etc).
Why can't they pick up a Human ElectroMag field?
I get that Barricade can't detect any signal or signal trail from Sam or Mikaela as long as 'Bee has them stowed inside himself with all the windows up, and that Bees Altmode (at least) is attuned to avoid Decep detection...
Or is it that they can detect Humans at all times, but it registers as 'pest' or 'vermin' or even 'microbe'?

6)I have been wondering this for so long. What the hell is in Chicago that is so important a whole army has to come and take over the city to obtain. In the plot details released with the Empire thing earlier this week it stated the Con's have full control of the city and those human gliders we see in the trailer are sneaking in under Con radar to try and make an opening for Autobots to get in the city. Maybe there is some artifact hidden in Chicago that can lead them to another sun harvester or maybe something contains the location of an energon deposit on Earth.

Maybe there's a Naitional Treasure style artefact with lots of little bits scattered all over post-colonial America.that all need locating and assembling into the one final bit that will coincidentally vape the invading fleet.

There are some attraction in Chicago that could hold a promising artifact. They have a history museum, Observatory, and the Museum of Science & Industry. Of course I think any object or another ancient transformer (Like Jetfire) would be in the Museum of Science & Industry.

Thanks, Forgotten. I showed Mrs. Smoketreader your post & of course she found your wifes' thoughts to be the highlight.Let's consider them both equally attack trained.

Yeah, sounds good. Too bad it's far too little, far too late.

Even if you could believe a word of it given that Mr. Bay is an admitted liar.

I meant that as a compliment to Dinobot, he's my favorite character after Primal and Megatron in the series. But I see how that last sentence could come off as derogatory. I want Ironhide to have a balls-to-the-wall take-on-all-comers fighting death, like Dinobot did. Not some punk ass way Megatron back stabbed Prime in RoTF after Prime bitch slapped all 3 of them. And I'd like to see megatron kill Ironhide the way he did in the 1986 movie. I picture Megatron once again going after Sam, or even Optimus, and a battered and wrecked Ironhide reaching out and grabbing Megatron's leg to prevent him, causing him to turn around, look down, and say "Such heroic nonsense." followed by him aiming his cannon and blowing Ironhide to bits. Awesome and fitting.

And I think that aside from Devastator's balls and the Fallen whenever he appears, Starscream is the biggest waste of screen time in Bayverse.

Who else thinks that SP's gonna die in the movie?

Yea also hated the ball scene for Devastator I thought that was a little to childish and dumb. But I like your scenario of Ironhide dieing it sounds really good. Most of the reason I'm disappointed with starscream is there has been none of his treachery and him trying to overthrow or kill megatron. That is how I know starscream. I also started thinking about in the new daytona 500 spot where starscream flies down at sam, I wondering now if the knowledge of the allspark is still in his mind and their after his mind again. I had been thinking there was an artifact in Chicago they wanted but know I'm thinking their just after Sam again.

Man I really hope he doesn't but he might. He looks way to cool to die.

This is the last movie of this Trilogy, so they/he probably want it to end with a bang.
And what better way to end with a bang than kill someone important or powerful from the good-guys ranks and then have him avenged successfully.

I don't want him to die, but even Sherlock would say that the possibility is 78% of 100%.

My 2 cents:

The humans gliding in under the decepticon radar. I'm assuming this means the Decepticons have trouble detecting non-metallic objects, not that they can't detect it. and with all the fighting going on around them, there probably more focused on bigger threats. Hopeing this gets explained in the movie.

SP dying? I'd say I will take that bet.
Ironhide dying? I think he'll pull out to the end. (hope so anyways)

Is Chicago really going to be "Chicago" in the movie?

1)I shortlist SP, Ironhide, Bee or 1 Wrecker.

2)From what others have told me here,yes,it's officially Chicago.
