Hey. Woh. Cut.
I always found his first movie toy absolutely awesome (pretty much one of the best toys ever), so that has a lot to do with it, but I like Ironhide.
Toys aside, I like his attitude, and the slight comedic approach Michael Bay took with him.
Ratchet: Oo, that's tingly- you got to try it.
Ironhide: *Scoffing* Yeah, that looks like fun.
"I will tear you apart!"
"The parents are irritating. Shall I take them out?
...
I'm just saying we could. It's an option."
In fact, one of my gripes with the second movie (which I
did enjoy) was that Ironhide got very little to do. I mean, he got like... 6 lines, and while they're cool to hear, they're short, and in the grand scheme of things, inconsequential. Ratchet got even less. Though I'm not his biggest fan, I'm sure those who are were dissapointed.
My other gripe is, as has been mentioned, the crude humor. A lot of the time, I felt like "Come on, really?"
Anyways, overall, as I said, I liked the movie. Optimus Prime was awesome, and fortunately knew how to fight (the first time I saw the forest scene, I smiled involuntarily- like I didn't want to look like a drooling nerd, but I couldn't stop, and my smile got bigger and bigger, and I could do absolutely nothing about it. Eventually I chose not to try).
Bumblebee's brief radio-with-the-girl-in-the-car-re-joke was pretty funny.
Jaw's theme. Hee hee hee.
Me and my brother appreciated the fact that Ravage actually got what he deserved (just before his viewing the film, which was my second time, we had been watching season one of G1 on DVD and noting how Soundwave's tapes always did seemingly impossible, and utterly aggravating things- for instance, Ravage jumping onto Optimus Prime [you know that Cybertronian who's so big he needs a Peterbilt to disguise himself]- and knocking him flat over, Rumble beating Hound underwater, etc., etc.). He tried picking a fight with Bumblebee, and Bumblebee dislocated his spine.
From his body.
Megatron actually picked on Starscream.
And Devestator got wrecked by a guass rifle. I'm sure Jammer will have appreciated that if he's seen the movie.
Very enjoyable.
I understand... you are, after all, a predacon.
