The guys from How It Should Have Ended are back with their take Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, and I'm not especially gloating to see they noticed many of the same massive plot holes as I did. However, they live up to their name by portraying very definitely what should have happened following the final transformation of Optimus Prime and the elderly Jetfire. Well done, sirs, and thank to Gizmo and everyone else who sent in the tip.

I'll admit it, that ending made me tear up a little.

Hurrah, first time I get a mention for doing something useful! And yes, the ending was sublime, thanks for the shout out, Rob :D

A bandage on The Beef's hand is a nice touch.
I actually enjoyed those three minutes of crudely animated mockery more than the full trillion dollar movie. *sigh* What a waste of everything.

I was expecting it to disappear in every second shot - kind of up set that they missed that rather obvious gag.
But, yes, the ending was beautiful. I swear, I'd hate the movies far less if they just used Romitized designs than the shitty "look how much work ILM did!" versions.

I finally broke down and got this from the Redbox yesterday. I believe Michael Bay owes me $1 back.
Five words that sum up the entire movie for me are ****SPOILER ALERT**** Sam goes to robot heaven. That is all.

I enjoyed the movie, but there is no point in trying to defend it, let everyone here have their fun, mocking it. I like Heroes as well, but if you get upset at people mocking what you like here you are not going to enjoy the site and that is a shame.

Ok now after my last post I have to do some of my own mocking.
@rj472
It's not robo-eaven, he was up there were the jedi ghosts and mufasa hang out at after death, totally a better place to chill out, I mean you get the choice of hanging with Jesus or with not one but two people voiced by James Earl Jones

You know these guys missed one plothole. If the matrix of leadership has to be earned, not just found lying in a cave, then what was the problem? And shouldn't the Fallen, who was one of the original Primes, have known that?

That was so beautiful...I have a tear in my eye...
This and a poll on SHH that stated 53% of people are "Not going to buy" Bayformers 2 makes me think there is still hope for the world...

If we give up here, what becomes of our future?
If this didn't make you laugh and cheer, then you are a lost cause.

Forgive cluelessness, but what is the Bay saying/doing right at the end of that clip?

The WolfMan said:
Don't believe I was defending it at all, people really shouldn't jump to conclusions like that.
I didn't like Transformers 2, but I didn't loathe it either. It was just more of a 'meh' response.
Bashing it half a year later... it's just gotten old by now.
@Wyngarde I liked the Old Optimus design a lot better. That bit of nostalgia was nice.

I did enjoy the movie, and did have a good laugh at this, but I will take this time to point things out:
1. I have to agree with this scene. The only one who kind of had an excuse not to fight was Bumblebee, who had the other two. Unless it was only him and Prime there, which makes you wonder where the others were.
2. I don't think the humans learn that Megatron was resurrected with the cube pieces. Even if they did, didn't Megan Fox use it to resurrect Jetfire? And they didn't meet up until the end anyways.
3. This doesn't work. Megatron had a two man advantage on Prime, and Optimus might not have been stronger than the Fallen until the end when he wears Jetfire.
4. I can give them this one.
5. This one is also iffy. Ironhide could've drove them to Optimus, but he was busy shooting things, and I wouldn't really leave the ass kicking to the bikes that look like they're made of leftover pieces.
6. I can them them this one too, it's magical. *sniff*
7. If they did fire it he probably would've dodged or teleported or magically did something to not die.

That was epic...especially G1 Optimus Prime at the end.
I really, really hated their designs in these movies.

That was just classic.
I never saw that G1 Prime ending coming at all and that just made it even more special.
