DM, your choices are ones I would have chosen as well. I'm just going to add some things that I also found cool in addition to yours.

 

Optimus Prime

1.) Prime and Megatron's dialogue between each other. - It totally sums up their relationship, who they are, and what they stand for.

2.) Prime vs. Bonecrusher - The way that whole fight happens is so awesome.

3.) Prime's speech to the other Autobots about humans, the Allspark, and how he has enjoyed serving beside them all.

 

I liked these, and some others, like his mere honest quip about knowledge of the glasses. "eBay."

I also liked his attitude towards Agent Simmons when he's rescuing Sam and Mikaela. "Taking the children, was a bad move." "Get out of the car...NOW!". That whole irritation towards the treatment of the kids really showed his level of commitment to protecting them.

 

Ironhide

1.) "Optimus! Incoming!" - When Ironhide hits his cannon to the ground and knocks out the tires of about 6-7 Sector Seven SUVs. the way he looks over and notices them coming and immediately reacts and informs Optimus is so awesome.

2.) Ironhide's interaction with Ratchet. - The two act like two brothers arguing and shoving each other at Sam's house.

3.) "It's Starscream!" - To me (I know others, like Pete, might disagree) this shows off Ironhide's war-vet experience and knowledge. Ironhide is the first to transform and call out who the jet is and begin to make a defensive against Starscream's attack. Jazz and Ratchet don't evEn get transformed and Ironhide is on his feet preparing for the attack. Even after the attack the humans are still confused, but Ironhide already saved their lives with Bumblebee's help.

 

You forgot his trigger happy attitude. His desire to terminate the rodent problem (I kind of cheered at that would have been a great way to deal with the yipping freak of a dog). And his offerred opinion to get rid of the parents.

 

Ratchet

1.) His interaction with Ironhide. - See Above.

2.) His introduction. I just enjoyed that.

3.) When he flips and saws off Brawl-Devy's hand. That's just killer-cool.

 

When he backed up into the powerlines, he said "That was tingly." Then more of the brother like behavior w/ Ironhide came in the form of, "You got to try this. Ahhh." Ironhide's response "Yeah. That looks like fun. Also his comment on Sam's pheromone levels and his want to "mate" with Mikaela.

 

Bumblebee

1.) Bumblebee's capture scene. - Just so moving and so emoitional.

2.) When Bumblebee first reacts and "talks" to Sam after the fight with Barricade.

3.) Bumblebee shooting Brawl-Devy. - Just cool stuff.

 

I feel the capture scene was moving in the fact that it's seen through Sam's eyes, who by this point has come to realize the friend he now has in Bumblebee. He has a similar reaction to seeing 'Bee in trouble after the smoke clears and we see 'Bee's been separated from his legs.

 

Jazz

1.) Jazz's vs. Megatron. - Jazz totally doesn't back down and even trash-talks Megatron right up until the end. Giant Balls of Super-Steel!

2.) Jazz's Introduction. - His dialogue and movements are so perfect.

3.) Jazz vs. Brawl-Devy. - When Jazz slide transforms and knocks his turret around, then climbs up on the big Decepticon's shoulder and messes up his rocket launcher is so awesome. So very TFTM Kup-ish too.

 

I hadn't thought about the whole thing with how his jumping on Brawl was very reminiscent of Kup in TFTM.

 

I also liked his first line: "What's cracking lil Protectobots." What a wonderful way to introduce yourself I thought.

 

Megatron

1.) Megatron's dialogue to Sam. - I loved his "Is it courage or fear that compels you fleshling?"

2.) Megatron vs. Prime - Just awesome stuff. Megatron owned Prime pretty much the whole time.

3.) Megatron's interchange with Starscream. - I know it's just kinda fanwanky, but I enjoyed it a lot.

 

Very scary/intimidating for Megatron (but good since this movie makes Megatron seem truly bad ass). My sister kinda jumped at some of his things, like when he came up from the floor chasing after Sam in the building clawing for him.

 

Frenzy

1.) When he is freeing Megatron - I love his line "MEGATRON! MEGATRON! MEGATRON!"

2.) Air Force One - I love his actions and reactions when he is on the computer. Loved the cracking the knuckles moment.

3.) Talking to Barricade - I loved it when he's in Barricade and he's talking to Barricade and he's all excited and angsty at the same time.

 

When we see Frenzy looking at the moniter with the outline image of Megs with the rising temperature, he also says "Megatron melting". He says a lot more English than we thought (I went to an open caption viewing on Sunday). When he jumps out of Barricade's chest, he says "Where are the glasses?" He also says more English in that battle when he has Sam backed up against the fence, before Mikaela comes to the rescue, we see him gripping Sam by the collar and saying "Where are they? Where are they?" His final line after cutting his head. "Oh Blot!"

 

Plus, when he's on the computer, his face looks like he's having some type of robo-gasm. Plus when he's getting out of the plane and making his way towards Barricade, his mini-salute and when he actually gets into the car, he flips the bird.

 

Frenzy had a lot of great moments in the film.

There is also some references to older movies that Bay and Spielberg made. The lines are exactly what they said but something close to it.

 

So what do you know about Aliens? What like E.T?

 

This is like, a hundred times cooler than Armageddon, I swear!

I love Frenzy's little Matrix moment in the radio-room, where he's backed up behind the pillar and pops his guns from his hands before looking around the side and firing.

 

Ironhide's whole transformation/blast/somersault sequence during the big fight is one of my favorite scenes EVAR.

 

The entire backyard/hallway/bedroom scene is just incredibly well-done.

 

On another note I liked how all the Cons who display "drivers" all used the same guy. Makes you wonder where they got his image from, and what happened to the poor schmuck.

I like just about all of the ones that you guys have mentioned so far. Though I can't believe no one has mentioned the first encounter with Barricade and Sam and bumblebee.

 

"ARE YOU EBAY USER NAME LADYSMAN219?!" (was it 219?) and when barricade runs after them jumps down and transforms real quick, that was hot. The music added alot to that scene too.

 

The scenes with Sam driving Megan Fox home (couldn't find her name spelling) with bumblebee playing all the songs. "Sexual Healing". Best wing man you could ever have haha.

 

There are lots of others, i'm pretty sure if we keep this up we'd quote almost the whole movie.

Frenzy not Mass Shifting.

I liked about 132 minutes. This is like choosing between apple pie and pizza. It's inhumane.

 

I did like the moment where Ironhide suggested to destroy the dog.

I pretty much love ALL of the moments mentioned above! :thumb

"ARE YOU EBAY USER NAME LADYSMAN217?!" (was it 217?) and when barricade runs after them jumps down and transforms real quick, that was hot. The music added alot to that scene too.

 

Corrected :thumb

 

Of course, that whole scene was just well done. Has anyone seen the music that some schmuck put to that scene on YouTube? He used footage that he probably caught on his camcorder at the theater. It's horrible IMO. Really just doesn't fit and kills the scene altogether.

 

Horrible BB vs. Barricade video

 

 

This is my absolute favorite scene

 

Tried to embed it, but forgot how.

you're right the music sucks in that video. The moment it started i was cracking up. I'm like what the hell do either of these songs have to do with this? Though the second song comes from one of the fast and furious movies i think lol. I remember a good amount of people having it as ring tones and i'm like wtf is that?

 

and thanks for the correction.

i'll have a go at this. all the bots

 

Optimus Prime:

1. his eye projectors. they just look so neat when he uses them

2. his massive blade arm

3. the whole battle between him and megatron

 

Bumblebee:

1. that goofy dance he was doing when prime introduced him to sam

2. when he was driving on the sidewalk

3. how he destroyed brawl even without legs

 

Jazz:

1. his opening line. "wha's happenin' lil' Protectobots?"

2. his breakdancing transformation

3. when he jumped on brawl's head (or rather his top turret since he was still in tank mode)

 

Ratchet:

1. like most people also think, his pheromone comment was great

2. his run-in with a powerline and his reaction to it

3. the brotherhood he and Ironhide seemed to have

 

Ironhide:

1. just those massive-ass cannons he's got

2. him using his cannons to propel himself through the air

3. his very minimal screentime

 

Blackout:

1. his assault on the army base. sheer awesomeness

2. his cold mechanical voice (you can hear it when tyrese looks at him through his camera thingy)

3. the meatgrinders of death on his arm

 

Barricade:

he wasnt in the movie much really. but i loved his only line and every other scene he was in. him and Blackout are my favorites

 

Bonecrusher:

same as Barricade. he didnt have much screentime, but the parts i liked of his that stood out more were him tossing traffic aside in alt mode and how he skates on his tires in robot mode

 

Brawl:

his arsenal and weaponry were what i REALLY loved about him. he acted so much like the tank he was

 

Scorponok:

i enjoyed his firepower a lot. seemed like he had beams and missiles both. and it rocked to see them in action like that

 

Frenzy:

1. how he always acted sugar-high

2. his death CDs

3. when he was walking out of air force 1 to barricade and mocking the personnel
