I'd probably watch a reboot. They could focus on different warriors at different time periods across the global. Maybe even step out of Europe and Asia, look at First Nation warriors in Canada or pre-colonial Africa. It could be really cool if done right.

A Highlander without Christopher Lambert is a Highlander not worth having...

Thor is such a badass

So who saves Stark in Avengers end game? Probably Marvel right? Or Thor? They're about the only two I can figure that can find him.

Probably Marvel, maybe a small chance Valkyrie? We never really did see what happened to her.

He actually gets himself out of it. Think Ironman meets The Martian.

Maybe Rocket contacts the Ravagers and has them track down that ship?

Wow Bumblebee was amazing! Great nods to the animated series and much more faithful than the recent films. I want a whole franchise of these movies. A very fun well done family adventure film like a throw back from the 80s with an amazing sound track.

Fishboy just killed it in China this weekend making $95 million for the 4th highest opening weekend for a superhero movie in China ever. It trails only IW, Venom and Civil War.

I checked out the trailer and saw G1 versions of Soundwave, Shockwave, and Starscream. Very cool.


The comedy bit in the trailer though made me shudder.

My guess is Rocket - he will be looking to try to find the ship and Peter Quill - then he comes across Stark.

I thought the humor in the film worked most of the time and certainly didn't take me out of the film.

I know this isn't a Bay film, but imo every attempt at comedy in the other Transformers movies were cringe-worthy level of terrible.

The movie is getting good reviews. The main take-away from the reviews is that this movie is very un-Michael Bay. The humour supposedly works very well, but the film is very family orientated overall.
