Movie Prime: Has a thing for facial mutilation? [Spoilers]

RID Scourge · Post by **RID Scourge** » Fri Jul 03, 2009 3:13 am

So it dawned on me while talking to someone about all the awesome things that Prime does in the movie that he seems to have a thing for facial mutilation:

2007:
-Shoves a blade through the lower part of Bonecrusher's head, affectively slicing his face off
2009:
-Asks Demolisher if he has any last words after incapacitating him and then shoots him in the face after he says that the Fallen is coming
-Digs hooks into the Blackout clone's face and tears his head in half
-Blows off half of Megs' face with his own fusion cannon
-Shouts "Give me your face" then rips the Fallen's face off before killing him by shoving his fist through his chest.

In fact I'm pretty sure that comprises every kill he has in either movie. Prime's a sick ****!

Yeah. All Megatron ever killed is Jazz and Prime himself, and that's after the Autobots massacred his troops.

Movie Prime's a psychopath.

Joe of Joe Loves Crappy Movies pointed out that BB had a rather high kill count. The Autobots are cold-blooded killers.

Wasn't Megs throwing a couple of bodies about in the flashback to Cybertron in the first movie? Plus at least one human in Mission City.

Prime's probably going out of his way to destroy the brain module or somesuch when he goes for the head.

Because Megatron's entire life is known to us.

Pretty much. The most assured way to kill your target is a shot to the head. destroy the brain, and he's definitely dead.

I thought you had to go for the Spark with a TF? Frenzy was fine even after getting his head knocked right off.

"Give me your face!" has become me and my friends' new way of saying "I'm winning"

When Frenzy had his head cut off, yes, he survived. But, when his head was destroyed by being split in half lengthwise, he died.

There are three ways to kill a Cybertronian:

1 Immense amounts of sustained damage.
2 Destroy the spark core thus extinguishing the spark directly.
3 Destroy the brain casing.

Fairly sure he javelined (is javelin a verb? I don't care, I'm using it as one) a 'bot in the flashback.

No, it's not. The term you're looking for is "speared". Megatron speared a nameless Autobot with a javelin.

Fail.

Wow...

I think we can agree this Prime's a bit more...forceful than previous incarnations. I was actually taken aback a little when he strolled up to a helpless Demolishor and blew his brains out, but oh well.

I like "impaled". Reminds me of that scene in Dracula.

Halfshell · Post by **Halfshell** » Fri Jul 03, 2009 12:44 pm

Fairly certain the term I was looking for was "don't care", which I used.

But yeah, impaled would be higher on the list than speared.

Prime is probably upset that Megs and his decepticons destroy their planet and killed many of their friends. NO trials or peace talks for them.

It was just begging to be done . . .

It was?

Well, we now have conclusive proof the movie designs look awful in two tone.

It seemed like such a good idea! It was asking to be done!
