prob_japanese and not_toothfairy at Milliways, and aside from the general issues I had with Revenge of the Fallen as a movie, there were considerably more stemming from things that have been played out in the Bar. ( I'm putting them behind a spoiler cut to protect the movie information they conflict with. )... anyway, you can see where that conflicts with movie material.
Oh, and also: part of the movie involves the world at large finding out about the Transformers. That's kinda not gonna work for us either, because Optimus talked with the US government and went public last year. Ironhide and Bumblebee were guests of honor at a robotics convention in Japan, for pete's sake. The Decepticons've been avoiding Earth this whole time, as opposed to the constant attacks on Earth mentioned in the first ten minutes of the movie. Plus, well, we already had ( SPOILERBOT ) on Earth and with the Autobots. Among other things. So, yeah, even if we were willing to say every single thing the Autobots have told the humans is a lie, we still need to go AU.
And I think we can do it, while still preserving some of the key plot chunks that came up in the movie. Let me float this as a trial balloon.... ( Read more... )
What do you think, sirs?
