It hits different when the carnage is happening in your city. I was genuinely feeling uncomfortable seeing all the buildings in downtown getting destroyed and felp epic when they were flying with the suits from Sears Tower. Even tho there are still a lot of movies filmed in Chicago, it's not even near the amount of the ones filmed in NYC or LA. I imagine the people living in NYC and LA probably getting numb when always these cities are the targets in most action movies, but it kind of makes it more impactful for other people when you see your city destroyed.

"Revenge of The Fallen" was sadly the victim of the 2008 writers strike....most films in 2009 had half to zero finished script. This one was a massive improvement. As a lifelong Transformers fan since '84 the next two are different but very good.

[@radiogobrrrrrrr1949]

The reason Optimus was so aggressive towards Shockwave was because in the comics, Shockwave killed a multitude of Autobots, including his GF Elita-1 Also the Optimus v Megatron “fight” made somewhere sense, think about it, Megs was battle damaged from the last movie, he never fully recovered hence the hole in his head, and he wasn’t expecting Optimus to kill him when he offered the truce. In the comics they give a much better ending where Optimus accepts his truce and Megs takes the Decepticons back to Cybertron

The ending was changed bc of an early leak thanks to Amazon which is why it felt so abrupt. The og ending would have Optimus and Megatron have a sick 2v1 against Sentinel ending with Optimus using Sentinel’s rust cannon against him. After the fight, Prime and Megatron would’ve had some dialogue before Megatron calling off the Decepticons and leaving to try rebuild whatever was left of Cybertron (Cybertron wouldn’t have collapsed in this version of the story).

[@sohum_g]

7:30 someone probably already answered this but that actually is Dr. Buzz Aldrin

[@mrfalzar9]

It was actually explained why Optimus could take down Megatron so quick here. Megatron already from ROTF had replaced parts which make him slower in ROTF, and here we have him even greatly injured so he was at around 30% of T1 movie where he was extremly powerfull.

[@mynameisharry8739]

The movie's ending was actually gonna be completely different originally. But they changed it when the novelization of the movie with that ending got leaked. Megatron would've teamed up with Optimus against Sentinel, stating that he's tired of fighting and wants the war to end. They use their combined power to defeat Sentinel and end the fight. But Cybertron's transport is completed and Megatron makes a truce. The Autobots stay on earth and the Decepticons return to Cybertron in order to rebuild it.

[@WSPonPlayStationandXbox]

Fr, Michael Bay was furious or at least upset that this was the case. At least the ending still kinda makes sense if you think about it, like even Optimus knows himself, "How could you ever trust a Decepticon?" lol. But yeah that original ending this film was intended to contain would've been much better, not just for the audience, but for Rotten Tomatoes.

There are conflicting reports on why Megan Fox didn't return for #3. The official story is that on the set of #2, she got very annoyed at director Michael Bay acting like a tyrant on set, which is apparently a common trend with his movies, by the way. She was quoted as saying ''He was marching around, giving orders like Hitler.'' Steven Spielberg who was an executive producer, learned of this whose father served in WWII and himself directed Schindler's List and Saving Private Ryan, got Megan fired from #3. The unofficial story based on Fox's account is she did in fact make that comparison to Bay, but Spielberg didn't have her removed. Instead, the comment caused a rift between her and the cast and crew, which caused Fox to withdraw from #3 on her own will. On the special features for the third film, which is only on the Blu-Ray 3D edition, Bay commentated that Megan did attend a script reading for #3 but without going into context, didn't reprise the role for whatever reason. He did wish her the best in future roles, though. The two ended up working together on the most recent live action TMNT movies. Bay was a producer on those projects, not the director. Although many assume her being in those films at all is enough proof there's no bad blood between them. The only other thing I saw Fox in was Jennifer's Body, an awful and campy horror film that pulled all the cheesy punches imaginable. Couldn't even finish it.

[@NALTOHQ]

Can’t wait to watch this in 3D. Also, yes, this movie DID have the real Buzz Aldrin as himself.

[@coconutshrimp707]

Optimus has really amazing character progression, a good and honorable leader in 1 to executing sentinel and killing megatron when there's a chance for peace, which would've prevented a lot of future problems

[@WSPonPlayStationandXbox]

Believe it or not, that wasn't actually how TF DOTM was supposed to end. Like the comic and novel adaptations for Transformers Dark of the Moon the ending to them had shown some pages and text of Megatron attempting to declare a truce with Optimus Prime, either him accepting the truce then working together to defeat and kill Sentinel Prime or he declines the truce but decides to spare Megatron's life anyway. That was meant to be the real ending to this movie than the one that we actually got which would've been even better for the audience and could've probably made a better rating on Rotten Tomatoes. But there was a system error leaking the novel or comic adaptations on Amazon without reason or explanation on why this happened a couple of months before this movie was even released leaking and spoiling the ending to the public and it was made worldwide on several Transformers related websites. This made Michael Bay furious or at least upset because he was so willing to release this movie with a truly great ending of Megatron and Optimus Prime debating about the truce or accepting the truce and then battling together to defeat Sentinel Prime. For better detail about what I'm saying, watch one of Theorymus' videos explaining why the ending was a bit too convenient or controversial for some of the Transformers fans and/or public.

[@scottyd0530]

Was this film perfect? No, none of them were. Did it have its flaws? Of course, they all did. But in my eyes, this was the best film in the Transformers franchise, and my personal favorite. This movie did a really good job of making you really fear the Decepticons.
