I'm irked how Prime just ignored the car. He almost landed on it and could've killed the humans inside. The robots moved terribly, too, and I couldn't tell where each part began and ended. I can't speak for everyone, but I think this clip proves that not only do the new designs not work, but the personalities have also been butchered to Bay's liking.

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages... We finally have ONE person who doesn't like that scene! Take a bow, Mr. EXTREME MINORITY!

Bonecrusher was voiced by Welker in that clip, btw.

meh, suffers more than anything imo just in that, like most uber-clever CGI effects, it just doesn't look real. Smeagol had a similar thing going in LoTR imo- yes, very clever and very well done but just... obviously shot with nothing there originally and then added in afterwards.

I think the scale is impressive, im not sure over the animation, they look sort of insect like, hard to explain.
Its an impressive bit of CG, id like to see it in 1080p

That's a valid point.

Prime moves in a really weird way. And when they fall off the bridge, it's like when my Scorponok fell off the table - two big blocks falling down. They don't even try to land on their feet...

Bonecrusher's design is good, though. I hope we'll see a bigger toy of him, as the deluxe sized one is not that good.

liking the scale of things though.

Prime looks a little like he's a gestalt.
