Maybe the Bee's seats could be made out of jean shorts.

I think Bumblebee was already on Earth when the movie started. Everyone else came later. And I think Bumblebee is the only 'Bot in this one? That may not be confirmed though.

Edit: I saw TLK like a month ago and completely forgot they retconned the Transformers to have been here all along. Wtf

In the first movie Megatron has been stuck in the ice for centuries or millenia and apart from Jazz, Ironhide, Ratchet, and Optimus they don't go into how long the others have been around. In Revenge of the Fallen they'd been on Earth in the distant past and left, but Seekers like Jetfire had been on Earth at least 100 years (one of them was a Model T). In Dark of the Moon they revealed that Soundwave has been working with human collaborators since at least the 1960s.

Basically the concept of them always being here has always been here, but with each movie they reveal more and more random Transformers stuff from the past.

Dwayne Johnson was already a Transformer, by the way.

This bit seems more important, to be honest.

Travis Knight, who directed the stop-motion movie Kubo and the Two Strings, is helming the new film from a script by Christina Hodson (Shut In).

This too

Bumblebee and John Cena in the same movie? No thanks, I'll pass.

How exactly does the lore in the Transformers franchise work? Because they never really mention Sam Witwicky anymore do they? Wasn't he the first human Bee encountered on earth? This messes with everything right?

Each consecutive film in the series has fucked up the mythos even more.

At this point, it's like they are actively trying to retcon the prior film's timeline.

Give it to me gaf, was the last Transformers film any good?

No.

Retconned in The Last Knight. Now

Spoiler

the Transformers have been on Earth for a long, long time and Bumblebee was in World War II.

That's not a totally random retcon, ROTF hinted at it with the Seekers
