They keep saying "Transformers", but the Autobot/Decepticon divide was made pretty clear before (Like when the Decepticons demanded that all Autobots would leave the Earth). Also, what about the humans who collaborated with the Decepticons? Don't they get a mention?

That's what xenophobic rhetoric will bring you.

Yup. Sides mean nothing. All people see is a war was brought to their planet that all transformers are responsible for. Anyhow, they didn't leave earth and as a result Chicago was destroyed. I know, i Know...
"But if they would have left then Earth would have been enslaved."
But how may people bedsides Nest really knew that?
To a majority of the world, the transformers just destroy everything they touch.
As far as the human collaborators go most (if not all) were killed by the decepticons already. So no need to mention them.

Not to mention that the previous films have shown the humans to possess weaponry that can kill Cybertronians. The humans soldiers are the bad guys in this movie, showing no mercy to the Autobots, wanting them all dead. If they're going after Ratchet, who evidently refuses to fight back, and get him cornered, they will not hesitate to be a ruthlessly swift in doing what they believe needs to be done. In that scenario of Ratchet vs. the humans, it's Ratchet who is a goner.dreadwing95 wrote:TurboMMaster wrote:If they really need to kill Ratchet off, they should let Galvatron deal the fatal blow.

well ratchet doesnt exactly want to kill them as far as i can tell. so it really should be an easy kill for humans even though id rather him live. he really hasnt done much for me to want him to be killed. then again he hasnt really done much at all...

Most of transformers that died during Bay Movies didn't fight back, so it's not strong arument. And considering number of times Autobots were saved from certain death in this universe, I'm suprised that reality isn't going wild when Ratchet is cornered. Each Soldier fightning with Ratchet should beign hited by different thunder...Sabrblade wrote:Not to mention that the previous films have shown the humans to possess weaponry that can kill Cybertronians.

Yeah. different thunder?
I think it's sad but realistic for the humans to turn on the Autobots. People fear what they don't feel like they can control. They felt ok when they thought the Autobots needed them. But I bet when they pulled a fast one and didn't leave like they told them too, (In DOTM) they got sore. Yeah sure, that was a mistake, but people wanting to keep power don't admit mistakes.
But humans have shown an increasing ability to adapt, and would most likely have plenty of weapons to turn on an autobot. And when you're a good guy and a medic to boot, you don't want to fight back. Had they gone after Prime, he would have been able to take care of himself. But Ratchet is a medic. In war, that's a no-no but I don't think the humans are really concerned about that.

Did anyone call the number and "report alien activity?" What did it do?

MALE VOICE #1: "Citizens! Transformers are still among us. If we spot them, we can stop them. Press 1 to report a Transformers sighting. To find out more about how you can keep Earth human, visit transformersaredangerous.com"
MALE VOICE #2:"Your message may be recorded and used on our website. Thank you for reporting alien activity."
FEMALE VOICE #1:"Thank you. To return to the main menu, press 1."
FEMALE VOICE #2:"Thank you for calling. Goodbye."
And if you actually press 1, you get a tone, then it skips to the two female voices.

There's something vaguely sinister about their faces in that poster- especially Bumblebee's. I don't know what it is about it. Maybe it's the fact that their eyes are obscured, or that I just realized that Bumblebee, the kid-appeal character, basically has a creepy T800-esque robot skull for a face.

The creepy, sinister feel of those posters is all part of the propaganda behind them. The Transformers have been deemed public enemies, and these posters are supposed to help emphasize the scary, dangerous nature that the governments want the public to think of the Transformers as.

Here's some more Transformers: Age of Extinction news for you! Entertainment and media website IGN had the chance to interview Mark Wahlberg, who plays inventor and single dad Cade Yaeger in the upcoming movie, in which he touches upon what is new about the new film - from 'recruiting' the dinobots to what he anticipates the fans' reaction will be. Additionally, German YouTube channel Movie Captain has a good chat with Nicola Peltz, who plays Tessa Yaeger, and talks about how the character is different from Carly or Mikaela, and her relationship with the other actors in the cast. Check both out embedded below!

I wish interview with people involved on art concepts, 3d, animation or anything involved with those amazing transformers instead of actors.

I agree with other poster who said they should speak with art directors and such instead of just the actors especially when addressing "die hard fans". I had to laugh when MW said this movie was more real/believable than the others. Unicron is coming...has to be. There is so little than can be said and MW said the Die Hards will be blown away with a new threat and new villains. Again I hope we see more than just Galvatron, Lockdown, and drones. I'm so pumped for the movie. I recently started dating someone that hasn't seen any of them. I'm not going to bother showing her TF or ROTF...think DOTM will prepare her for AOE. She is cool with my hobby and that is a major plus in my book. I had about given up on finding someone accepting of Transformers...do not know what it is about Central Illinois but women here are monumentally picky, uppity, and self absorbed to the max.

"What's different about this film is that this one has a stronger human element..."
When are these folks going to realize that the main characters of The Transformers need to be the actual Transformers???
