Another set photo from Kathy Applebaum gives us our first look at titular character Bumblebee in his original G1 Volkswagen Beetle (VW Bug) vehicle mode.
His new (well, old) form was officially announced by Paramount along with the announcement of John Cena who will assume an unspecified lead role in the movie.
The first hint regarding the return to Bee’s VW Bug came from producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura back in June.
A yellow Volkswagen Beetle was showcased as a tribute in the first Transformers Live Action Movie when Sam Witwicky was about to buy his 1977 Chevrolet Camaro. Bumblebee assuming his original form for the new movie will surely please G1 fans.
Check out the image, after the jump.

"Subjective: 1. based on or influenced by personal feelings, tastes, or opinions."
If it's an opinion or has any sort of bias, by definition it's subjective. Not that there is anything wrong with that, and as long as we're all aware that our opinions are subjective.
Anyway, back to the thread at hand and given the shooting locations, I am extremely curious what specific town, if there is a specific town, the shooting locations will represent. Santa Cruz? The Bay Area? Somewhere else real? Somewhere fictional California town? As someone from the Bay Area originally I am extremely curious, although I am fine either way.
I would seriously love a redwoods battle though! Or a battle between Bee and a Decepticon in the waves…with great white sharks swimming about!

And to be fair, I've said almost the same thing to people who try and claim that the movies are objectively bad.

I love the first movie but imma side with @CKPRIME and @Livingdeaddan here… Not that hard to make out that liking a movie is subjective.
Livingdeaddan
But liking something and deciding others must agree doesn't mean it is!
CKPRIME
By what objective standard can you demonstrate that it is well made?
Duskscream
Hmm
Not liking something does not mean it's not objectively well made.
Livingdeaddan
Objectively good, in your subjective opinion.
Some people don't like T2, or Robocop, or Karate Kid 1. Go figure!
Duskscream
Hmm you have no response to my points, lol.
2007 Transformers is objectively good and I'm not being paid by Bay, so I am clearly objective.

Oh God yes!! The Trans Am in this movie is a 77 or 78, like the Bandit.

I started thinking this film could look like what a live-action Transformers film might have looked like if one had been made in 1987 and got ridiculously stoked. Hype train: boarded.
