Besides the kid and their car part Bee and 2007 are vastly different in plot progression and character, and even the bid and car part turn out differently.
As for Star Wars people hated the prequel Star Wars movies what the hell else would people directing the next Star Wars film realistically have done? The actual plot points copy a lot from the first Star Wars film step by step.
Perhaps people didn't like Force Awakens because it was a "bad film", Bumblebee is a good film despite similarities to the 2007 film.
Final battle in Bumblebee is different from the 2007 film, the beginning was different from 2007 film and so on.
Taking inspiration from other parts from the franchise isn't the same thing as copying the exact same story progression but tweaking a few things.

It does seem like a company answer cause they dont eant to discredit the bayformers.
But after watching it its more than a little obvious its a reboot of sorts cause of all the plot differences and inconsistencies.
Plus if Prime was in the form he was in at the end why would he turn into the rig?? Also why would they look more 'organic'on earth than they did on Cybertron. They transform their alt modes not their physicality

Original Star Trek fans are still very much into their *Trek* despite all the reboots and re-imaginings. They hold those original 3 TV seasons and 6 theatrical films as *gold*.
Even Star Trek V?

I thought you were singling out BB's issues from those of Movies 1-4 in your post.o.supreme wrote:Sabrblade wrote:None worse than any of the continuity issues that were had between the first five films.o.supreme wrote:Even if TLK is "left out" (timeline contrivance).

AOE threw all those out the minute it introduced the Creators and Knights, which TLK then threw out with Quintessa being "the Great Deceiver" and its having a completely different set of Knights.o.supreme wrote:So then..are all the IDW movie tie-ins considered "canon" to the live action universe, (I always figured so, even though i cant remember what happened in most of them) because if so...that presents a whole other dimension of issues.
