Which are some parts of the movie that really stuck out for you in terms of the score that was used in the background.

Of course we would all have vote the arrival of the Autobots to be the best musical sequence but what else did you like?

I have to say my 2nd favorite part was the whole Skorponok sequence starting off with the thumping bass that stayed at a constant level until it got more heroic sounding when the Air Force began their air strike. It mixed in so perfectly with the attack sequence.

- the opening optimus prime narration
- the scorponok/air force score (really helped build the anticipation and excitement)
- the autobots roll out scene (your average media ventures strings and horns, but i loved it)
- the end cue (i don't remember but i think it was the same as the autobots arrival scene. anyway, very heroic and bombastic, which i loved. too bad the linkin park-song played right after it)

when Optimus comes into the city and transformers and the linkin park song at the very end.

For me, it's when the Autobots are speeding toward Bumblebee and the army rangers. I just love that music.

You know what's good? That OMEN-esque music they play when Blackout and Frenzy try to hack us.

(Damn Elemental Fantasy sampled it and won't say where he got it!)

I like that music, too. It's got a classic Media Ventures feel to it.

The musical moment that sticks out in my head is when the music rises as protoform Optimus stands at the top of the hill and just drops silent after the semi truck drives past. I'm usually the first person to want to throw a memorable theme in wherever possible, but I think that's one of the all time great uses of near silence. Then after that point it goes into the Autobots theme, how can you not love that?

I also like when the "all spark" theme plays as Bumblebee picks up Sam and Mikaela before the car chase.
