I think this is the beginning of the reboot of the series. So it's not linked to the previous ones.

And more importantly, not filled with Michael-Bayisms.

No endless explosions or endless patriotic fanfare to the armed forces. No endless product placement or childish humor or racial stereotypes.

Was going to point this out - it's the first one Bay wasn't directly involved in, so it at least had a chance to go for a different tone and not be the usual shit.

Yeah, it was pretty good. The opening segment was fantastic and made me feel like a kid again.

I was too young to remember much of ET except m&ms and ET go home, and I never saw Iron Giant, so I guess Bumblebee is the movie for me.

Go see Iron Giant right now.
Seriously. I'll wait right here. You go watch it.

I thought this new movie was a prequel to the first Bayformers movie?

Sort of.

Part of the movie explains how Bumblebee lost his voice, which had already been explained in a then-canonical prequel comic in a completely different way.

This is going to get confusing, because as far as Transformers is concerned, everything is canon.

It also explains how Bumblebee became a Camaro and why he was the first one on the planet. It also has a secret base in the same place that they do in...the 2nd movie? I think it's a prequel.

As someone who grew up with the G1 series, I wished the Cybertron part was extended. The whole movie coulda just been that and I would be happy.
