Plus, the big reason why humans were able to take down transformers was supposed to be because of the invention of the sabot round, which in-movie was supposed to be a recent thing.
If they did do the Dinobots..They could keep the original story from the cartoon. The Dinobots crashed on earth 65 million years ago. Seeing as the dominant lifeform at the time were dinosaurs, thats the form they took.
Then have whatever event happened to bring the dinosaurs to extinction incapacitated the dinobots until revived in the sequels.
But as far as plot goes, they could just start where they left off--displacement from Cybertron and relocation to a world filled with untapped resources and potential--and very little to offer in the way of opposition or resistance.
The arrival of individual Autobot and Decepticon refugees presents many options to propel the story, either in its current original storyline form, or in the direction suggested by traditional continuity which may help to bring the live-action version into the good graces of the many long-time fans who were angered by the creative liberties taken in the first film.
It certainly has potential.
And as far as killing Megatron is concerned, just disassembling him while frozen doesn't necessarily mean he'd be dead. I don't think that the Hoover Administration would have had the resources, weaponry, or the BALLS to try to dissect such a technological marvel.
They would rely on Earth's resources of course, silly! I assume you've seen the first season of the original series. Originally it was the Decepticons who first introduced energon cubes--the Autobots hadn't even heard of them at the time.
The Decepticons used many of Earth's natural resources for the production of the cubes. Hydro-electric power, jet fuel, even "the ruby crystals of Burma", though even as a kid I was never able to figure out how they derived power from crystals merely by compressing them.
Energon's an easy thing to get past.
Yeah, I remember from G1, but the movie TF's seemed way too human like, what with Bumblebee urinating on that one dude, for all we know they probably need Cybertron-Wheaties. I don't know. I'm just trying to watch how hilarious the outcome of thier nourishment shall be.
Yep....Its like the bullets and missles they shoot in this movie....
Where are they getting them...?
Probably not K-mart since Michael Moore's movie.
Are they parts of the TF themselves...? If so that'd be silly as they'd probably deplete like half their mass after a good sustained battle.
TFs shooting bullets is just dumb, imo.
Just another example of Bay not knowing where the sci-fi and the reality cross well.
