Optimus Prime's Passport Photo
Emerging from the small, blurry, Bigfoot-style pictures of the Transformers comes a crisp detail of the design and face of the leader of the Autobots. Like grandma, he's now barely recognizeable compared to the pictures of him from your childhood, but you'll still probably end up wasting two hours on both of them next summer, out of guilt if nothing else.
Some full-body shots under the cut.

Shut the fuck up about Transformers already, we all grew out of it when we stopped being 6 year olds.

I guess I disagree with old_gregg. While I may not watch the cartoons anymore, I still care about a remake ripping the soul out of my favorite childhood cartoon.
Sigh.

*sigh*
Kids.
Do we finally live in a world where it's possible (and if not possible, then accepted) to judge a book by its cover?
How about this. We wait till the movie comes out, read some reviews, weigh the evidence after we've seen it or talked to someone who has, and then say if we like it or not.
Now, do I like the designs of the Transformers so far? Nope. Do I need to recall that the Transformers, while playing an important part of my childhood, were just a mediocre cartoon that didn't explain too much more than "Good guy beats bad guy" and that the Autobots were the good guys? Yes. As far as I'm concerned, Bay just needs to stick to that premise, maintain the personalities of the characters, and he can change whatever the hell else he wants.
It's already been changed before a million times. Armada. Energon. Etc.
Please, people, stop your bitching. It makes others think less of your spoiled ass.
At least we weren't born broke, starving, AIDS infected, degenerate children in a third-world country. Be happy that we live in a country that can spend millions of dollars on a fake piece of cinema just to passify you and all the other sucklings.
Peace.
