hey this message might be long but i’m gonna answer all the questions i heard and read… bumblebees voice was back at the end of transformers 1 but they also said he was still haveing problems with it… teck he wasnt great at it he could only say certin stuff.

Q1. jetfire says only a prime can kill a prime but really what he means when he says that is it’s easyer for a prime to kill a prime. when megatron killed optims he had help with like starscream or someone.

Q2. when bumblebee throws the twins out of the cave he did it without a sweet b-cause the twins were caught off gaurd i’m sure if they knew bumblebee was coming they would have been more defensive but they were to focased on beaating each other.

Q3. leo is in the movie b-caause in every movie if they have a second they cant have the same people as they did in the first movie and only thoes people they need to have new people to keep the watchers intrested. and he was funny when i watched it almost all the people in the movie theater were laughing. there i answered ur questions and i hope your happy…aan i don’t get wats wrong with transformers it’s the best movie u probly just don’t know good movies and yes im talking bout the guy who made the video

I agree with Jose Ramos about most of these questions.
1. I recall near the end of the first movie when Megatron and Optimus were having their final epic battle, Optimus calls Megatron “brother”. So if only a Prime can kill a Prime, it would make sense. Maybe Megatron is secretly a descendant of the original Primes too. But if only a Prime could kill the Fallen, then that would make more sense because the original Primes couldn’t defeat him because they sacrificed themselves to hide the Matrix. So maybe they entrusted the last Prime, (Optimus) to defeat the Fallen. (And Optimus joined together with Jetfire, who if I’m not mistaken, was a Prime also. Probably wrong about that Jetfire bit but I’m not sure so…ya.)

2. In my opinion, the Twins were just being immature when BumbleBee tossed them away. They weren’t really being serious. Honestly, I wouldn’t fight my brother as seriouslly as I would a bully thats 3 times my size. And the only reason they did that much damage is because Mudflap got lucky when he got eaten and bursted out. Otherwise, it was from the Rail Gun from the Aircraft Carrier as Devastater was climbing up the Pyramid.

3. Leo acts as the go-between for Sam and the Sector 7 Agent. He also brings some humor to the dramatic fight scenes.

I’m a bit biased, ad I haven’t seen it, but it just seems to me, that you shouldn’t have to make up explanations to get the movie to make sense. Some movies get away with it fine and some let things be unanswered to trip the imagination, but this just seems like overbloated way of getting money from the innocent fans. It could have been a great franchise, but it just isn’t. Don’t try to make it that.

1) I am not sure about this but those he ever say “Only a Prime can kill a Prime” or does he say “Only a Prime can kill the Fallen”? Because if it is the latter, it is a complete different aspect than the first one. Why? Just because only a Prime can kill The Fallen doesnt mean that only a Prime can kill a Prime. It is logic’s rules. Just because P causes Q doesnt mean that Q causes P.

2) Bumblebee caught them off guard, and he was just acting like an older brother. They didnt want to fight him back because they really didnt need to.

3)I think Leo just added a more relaxed and funny aspect to it, most of all the times he came out I had a good laugh. it is just to add a little something to the movie…

Thats my points of view, I think the most important one is the first one…

Best Regards.

Ok, since Johns questions are pretty much answered…

1) What I want to know is how did the Human Female Decepticon know that Sam was at college when the Decepticons were still looking for him (where they even looking for him at that point? If not, why the hell was she even there, and they make it seem like she was enrolled at college for a while. And why didn’t she just kill/capture him when she was alone with him in the car (Bumblebee)? Also, why didn’t she signal the Decepticons when she found Sam.

2) I still don’t get why the allspark only creates Decepticons.

1. Maybe Megatron could have killed Optimus because he was destined to return. Kinda like Jesus

2. No clue. HUGELY unsatisfying.

3. No point. He sucked.

I LOLed at your take on Leo.

I actually watched the movie twice.

And the whole time Leo came out, I kept whisperin to my friends about how annoying and useless he was…

but then I realize Leo is jus a poorly executed “comic relief.”

Now towards the end of the movie, Michael Bay put in a lot of lame lines and scenes but I wont get into that… Leo I believe is a character that Bay created on purpose to kind of offset the whole tone of the movie.

When it gets too serious, basically this clown comes out of nowhere and tries to elicit a few chuckles which I thought was a failed attempt.

Of course this is my interpretation.

And your first question is actually VERY sharp :) you gave me somethin to think about…

As for the second question/point you brought up about bumblebee and the twins… I dont think it’s too big of a deal. It could be for any number of things… but i dont believe it to be somethin worthy of questioning. As someone suggested, I think it was jus that bumblebee was an ally and the twins jus didnt wanna mess wit when in fact they are real good fighters.

OK, bare with me a second. Sam has that vision near the end of the movie where he pretty much dies. In that vision the Primes tell him that he was meant to fulfill a role, his destiny was to save Optimus. “Only a prime can kill the fallen” sounds like a line that would have come from a foretelling of the future. As these Transformers in the vision revealed they new that same day this boy named Sam would save Optimus, then maybe it also foretold of a prime defeating the Fallen. That would not necessarily mean that only a prime could kill a prime, just that legend says that the Fallen would be defeated by a prime. As it was Sam’s destiny to save Optimus, it was Optimus’ (a prime) destiny to defeat the Fallen. Just a though and another way to look at it. What do you think?

#1 In the first Transformers Megatron refers to Opitmus Prime being his brother. So that would make Megatron himself a descendant of a Prime, would it not.

#3 Leo was a gimmick. Purely for comic relief, like many of the other characters.

I thought only a autobot can be a prime 1 matrix 1 prime. not a fallen, nor megatron (who could be considered a prime) never starscreen! also bumble be is not asaposed to be a great fighter, but bay re-wrote it I guess.
