Movie Thoughts: Transformers Rise of the Beasts

In 2018, the Transformers series was rebooted with the release of Bumblebee, a story about love and overcoming loss. Due to the films success, it allowed the Transformers series to have a fresh start as a sequel was in the works. This sequel, unlike Revenge of the Fallen, would raise the stakes but not be lazy about it (Seriously, Prime's death in RotF was just meant for shock value). This time, the world would be at risk as a cosmic entity set its sights on earth, becoming a race against time. A great discovery brings together two unlikely people as they learn of alien races looking to protect themselves and humanity from an unspeakable horror. When the enemy reveals itself, it becomes a race against time to save the earth. With Bumblebee essentially rebooting the franchise, it allowed for new ideas, a way to introduce new characters and tell more engaging stories. Originally, the working title was Beast Alliance, a way to introduce the Beast Wars characters to a new generation.
