#in the middle of the ravaged city that paid the price of his misplaced distrust in his own mentor

It’s important when I burrow too deep into my stupid arguments about bayverse I go back and watch a whole movie - not out of context scenes - to remind myself. Oh yeah these movies are bad

#towards the end of DOTM you can see an injured battered Optimus standing between the bodies of Megatron and Sentinel #the two people he cared most about #that were just brutally slaughtered by his own hands #in the middle of the ravaged city that paid the price of his misplaced distrust in his own mentor #and I’m like wow. a nice pig and view into his moral descent and reflecting on what he has become- #oh yeah the vaguely heroic speech mandated because he’s the Good Guy and we need one to assure everyone’s he the Good Guy #I forgot. disregard everything I just said.
