Semi-Spoiler Alert!

I just saw "Transformers: Age of Extinction," today. To be honest, I overall disturbed just by that one scene where a Human character killed by that Transformer bounty hunter named Lockdown (if you saw the Cartoon Network "Animated" series, he pretty much the same guy but wiser, live-action, and more violent).
He didn't just died, he incinerated instantly, Lockdown's thermal grenade turned the ground lava-hot and turned that guy into a standing charcoal and still burning. He was a nice guy; he made people laughed. :tears:

I still not used to seeing Transformers killing Human people; I've watched Transformers since I've seen Transformers kill each other all the time, few were tiny bugs and shrimps in "Beast Wars" but not once people until "Dark of the Moon."

And don't forget the dinosaurs. In the beginning scene, alien ships, look Cybertronian but the aliens are organic, at least half. :confused: And they were bombing the Earth's ground while dinosaurs running for their lives but still get burned alive.

If you watched either or both the G1 cartoon and "Prime" series, remember that one episode where Megatron 'cyberform' or trying to turn Earth into a metallic planet? I think it's pretty much the same thing with the movie but more deadly and violent.

Maybe I'm an idiot but I love the new transformation on the new Decepticons. If you want to know what the new transformation look like, ask me through the "Note" to pretty spoilers for other readers who haven't watched the movie who want to be surprised.
Though it may seen 'unorthodox' toward you more experienced or critical 'hardcore' Transformers fans but I guess that's what's makes this transformation looks cool and unique, it breaks down the usually old ways of watching Transformers.

Pretty much the same, Autobots saving the day from a worldly destruction with an ounce or more of special effects.
I'm a little bit displeased that I have to wait for another Transformers sequel after this. How do I know, it's simple, the bad guys still live.

Long before the movie was announced, I had doubts about another 'sequel' after "Dark of the Moon." I'm maybe a noob but I know at least two essential parts of Transformers continuity: old enemies and home planet.
Transformers are always about war between the Autobots and the Decepticons; two sides of the same coin I suppose.
And with Cybertron is gone, without the home world of the Autobots and Decepticons, neither of them would have reason to fight for.
No Megatron, no Decepticons, no Cybertron, no sequels.

The movie sure was a sequel hook, and I'm pretty sure a lot of Transformers fans know who the next movie's villain is.
