This is the third movie in the wildly successful 'Transformers' series. If you have a favorite 'Transformers' quote on this list, vote it up! If you don't see your fave movie quote listed, add it. And if by chance you missed the movie in theaters, you can watch the 'Transformers: Dark of the Moon' DVD, which was set for release on September 30, 2011.
'Transformers: Dark of the Moon' quotes include statements from astronauts who find way more than they bargained for on the moon, statements from Sam Witwicky (Shia LeBeouf) as he realizes the epic battle setting up between the Autobots and the Decepticons, and, of course, words of wisdom spoken by Optimus Prime. Check out some of the best quotes here from Michael Bay's 'Transformers: Dark of the Moon.'
Despite lukewarm to poor reviews from movie critics, Michael Bay's 'Transformers: Dark of the Moon' still managed to take in a whopping $97 million in it's opening weekend. The movie continued to do well throughout the summer of 2011. As of mid-September, it had grossed well over $351 million at the U.S. box office.
Sentinel Prime: "So majestic and peaceful, this planet, unlike the final days of Cybertron." Optimus Prime: "I've wondered what might've been if you had fought the final battle, instead of me." Sentinel Prime: "Never mourn the past, young warrior. Thanks to you, our race survives." Optimus Prime: "You were our leader, Sentinel. It is your right to lead us again." Sentinel Prime: "In a world I do not know, I am no longer your teacher Optimus. You are mine."
Optimus Prime: "In any war, there are calms between the storms. There will be days when we lose faith. Days when our allies turn against us. But the day will never come when we forsake this planet and its people. For I am Optimus Prime, and I send this message to the universe: We are here. We are home."
Optimus: "We were once a peaceful race of intelligent mechanical beings. But then came the war, between the Autobots that fought for freedom and the Decepticons that dreamt of tyranny. Over matched and outnumbered, our defeat was all but certain. But in the war's final days one Autobot ship escaped the battle, it was carrying a secret cargo which would have changed our planets fate. A desperate mission, our final hope. A hope that vanished."
Buzz Aldrin: "You cannot believe what we are seeing..." Mission Control: "We are not alone, after all, are we?" Buzz Aldrin: "No, sir. We are not alone."
This quote, uttered in the very first teaser-trailer for 'Transformers: Dark of the Moon,' is definitely an attention-getter. Buzz Aldrin and the crew of Apollo 11 have just landed on the moon and gone "dark," when they discover that, without question, they aren't alone.
