I love the spind design of that scene. The "screams" of bone crusher sound so hate filled. Like his Deception hatred for the Autobots is overriding his caution to go up against a surpeior foe.

@@3etakk everything you said is very true, some people might question why Ironhide seems like more like a warrior too, Ironhide was a decepticon then changed his faction to autobot. This is why he's more agressive then most other Autobots, like you said before most Autobots were meant to be workers or scientist. Optimus use to go by the name Orion pax , he use to be more of a speaker, after some time Megatron betrayed him and basically destroyed him. Orion pax was rebuilt to a new autobot, a autobot more designed to fight as a leader; Optimus Prime. This is how he came to be. Prime is usually a lineage of certain cybertronians and those cybertronians put there knowledge and power into the matrix of leadership, but in bayverse iteration, prime is more of a rank or you can get choose for it.

The fact that it's all complex robot transformations makes it even more valuable, we don't see this kind of CGI very often, it's not the same to see CGI shaceships or CGI locations like cities and so on to these movies.

The Transformers movies compensated the lack of good writting with amazing CGI as one of their most important aspects, there was a lot of passion on blending reality and fiction in these movies. Hell, Blackout's opening scene, Barricade, the autobots arriving, there's a lot of awesome looking scenes to unpack on the first movie alone.
