Yeah, the allspark kinda made up for it, being the creator of life and all.
Plus, bay was too cheap to animate one in.

^THANK YOU!!!!! FINALLY, someone who gets it. BAY. IS. CHEAP. that's why there's no trailer, an Allspark instead of the Matrix, etc....

bay didn't want to put the matrix in because he didn't want to get ppl confused with the matrix movies

Also, there's no trailer because where would it go??? There's enough problems of that in the comics and cartoon

by **Nemesis_Apoc** » Fri Oct 05, 2007 11:57 pm

yeah, that's been brought up, but hasn't he considered it for the next one, like the transforming aircraft carrier he was talking about?

At least there was a cameo of the shining spark in his chest. Oh well.

Bingo. Give this man a cigar. They replaced the matrix of leadership to an extent with the allspark, and instead of pissing the fans off even more by simply calling the matrix of leadership the allspark, they just went with the allspark as a new plot point.

lol.. are you for real? You think animating the Matrix of leadership would be more expensive then animating an AllSpark? LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL yes, it would certainly break the bank, and Bay is so cheap for that!

On another note, he isn't cheap, he has a budget. (That means he has a certain amount of money to spend on things)

Lol I didn't mean literally give you a cigar

But I think you get what I meant

but it wouldn't hurt to animate one in for that one minute that optimus opens his chest.

In this continuity Optimus Prime doesn't need a matrix to be the leader...

By the way, a gadget what i would like to see is a transforming cog who inserted in some place in Metroplex Mall makes it a giant fighting robot...
