More Transformers Movie batshit.
There is a petition on the internet. A petition with over 5,200 signatures. A petition...to keep the flames off Optimus Prime's paint job.

We, the undersigned, whole-heartedly REFUSE to accept an Optimus Prime....... with flames. Simply put, flames stopped being cool somewhere around the 8th grade. Mr. Bay, what happened? We knew you directed Pearl Harbor but we instantly forgave you of that the moment you cast Peter Cullen (the original voice actor) as Optimus Prime. You seemingly, for once, had EVERYONE on your side. But then you must have started flipping through some of your old Jr. High notebooks full of doodles and noticed how cool everything looked... on fire. We are outraged, nay, HEARTBROKEN to picture our beloved Autobots champion calling out "Autobots, Transform!" with his one flaming arm raised in the air. It isn't too late, Mr. Bay. Turn back now and give us the movie we have all been wetting the bed over since we were 7 years old. We don't care, do reshoots, push back the release of the film a few months... just give us back the not-so-flaming Optimus Prime that we all know and love!!

Sincerely,

The Undersigned


And the comments. My god, the comments.



What is it with you hollywood gheyfers, stop crapping on my childhood. Who are you to say Optimus Prime needs to be reinvented with flames. Damn you to hell.

Some "updates" are understandable, but flames on Optimus is like giving Megatron a barb wire tattoo. (Don't get any ideas Bay.) (I think they actually already did that once.)

I love you optimus prime If you love someone, let him wear flames.

I'll still see the film but many people won't because they're so against the idea .The flame's are lame. Fact I'm signing this anyway even though I'm seeing the movie and not taking a single dime from you!

I can accept the historical inaccuracies in Pearl Harbour, but this is serious. This is one plot hole than can’t be glossed over with an arbitrary bombing raid over Japan. Because getting important bits of history incorrect is so much less terrible than Optimus Prime's paint job.

Some of them are quite scary.

WE AS THE NEGRO PEOPLE CAST OUR VOTE TO MAKE THESE FAGS HAPPY ! , Seeing as we are black , Our penis are bigger SO NO FLAMES

Michael Bay Is A Tumor on The Testicals of Hollywood and should be chopped off. And there ges my lunch.

man shuch angry this makes me man flaming optommy prime lyke are you jack hammering me ore wath? LOL. 10 sigelz gout snouts and all---Hail.

This is all a PLOT by the MSM to PERVERT our CHILDREN into TOLERATING the DEVIANT HOMOSEXUAL LIFESTYLE.

And it's not even limited to English!

3125. Hailton não façam do optimus prime um palhaço!!1

inadmissivel q o Optimus seja "tunado". Por favor, coerencia!!!

Foguinho já basta o da novela né!

A vague sort of win: 1444. GAY FANBOY NUMBER 2 I AM NOT AN ALT-ID OF GAY FANBOY NUMBER 1 HONEST EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THESE SIGNATURES IS UNIQUE AND DIFFERENT. 1,500 FANS EQUALS A LOT OF MONEY IN MOVIE DOLLARS! YOU MUST LISTEN TO US BECAUSE WE COMPLAIN LOUDLY AND WILL SEE THE MOVIE ANYWAY!

I'm keeping myself mostly spoiler-free, you'll have to go google it up yourself.

I'm Googling the wrong thing, apparently. I only found one kinda crappy picture. The paint job looked pretty stupid, though.

Try poking about seibertron.com.

What people don't realize is that the leaked pics are mostly rough drafts of their final forms. Same goes for that script that's circulating the fandom.

Thanks, found a bunch of pics.

It's not horrible. Very different aesthetic than what I remember from my youthful TV-watching days, though.

That sounds about the same as what I hear from my sane fandom-friends.

Srsly, Prime was a flying fire truck before. The flames are nothing.

The flames aren't that intrusive and you can barely seem them when he's in bipedal form. Yeesh. Silly fanpoodles.
