I think Iron Man serves as an example of how movies can feature robots punching things (well, sort of) and still have a heart and soul that Bayformers lacks.
That said i'll probably see this anyway because fuck me i do believe that's Devastator.

I agree with thefonz; it's

And I'm wearing stuff.

That's right. Enjoy!

I didn't see no Devastator. I did see a good reason to avoid this like the plague.
(Seriously, where was Devastator?)

The sand vacuum at the end of the trailer is Devastator. And the giant wheel-bot thing that was in a couple of shots in the early teasers is one of the Constructicons, so expect Devastator to be absurdly fucking huge when all put together.

TF:TM has a well written, lean script that's entirely free of fat.
My ASS. Sharkticon planet? Entirely superfluous. Planet Junk? Could've been done in two minutes, and not had 'Dare to be Stupid.' Unicron eats one of Cybertron's moons (presumably
in orbit around Cybertron), and then promptly fucks off to who knows where for 45 minutes (which covered several days in the movie's time) for no good reason, until coming back in the third act to finally eat Cybertron.

Apparently you forgot the part where they killed half the characters in the first twenty minutes so they could introduce a bunch of new ones.
To sell the new toys. I think you need a new prescription for your rose tinted glasses, son.

Assuming 'stuff' is not a new fragrance of some kind, I'm going to guess this is cosplay.
How does that work these days? With the old ones at least you could wear boxes and things found in the home. With the new ones I think you'd have to cover yourself in glue and jump into the off-cuts bin at a knee pad factory.

Unless Dia is roleplaying as Megan Fox.

I'm not sure which one would result in a more plasticy outcome.

I was going to try to work in a joke here but everything I come up with just leaves me feeling vaguely sad. How can you tell it's Devastator? How do you know they're Constructicons? Is there some kind of guidebook or something, because that doesn't look like the Devastator I know.
Also, Bumblebee is sad because he can't go to college. :( awwwwww FUCK OFF
