says that it would be difficult to make an Optimus Prime movie
That's because Optimus Prime's defining life events all happened on Cybertron, making a movie about him prohibitive. Bumblebee on the other hand has his closeness to the human element as one of his defining characteristics (way more than any Autobot, including Prime). Simply put, they don't have the capacity to set any kind of origin or solo defining adventure on Earth. His history is all on Cybertron or the rest of the universe.

If it's by the same people that made the Bumblebee Movie, I'd see it.
As long as they get rid of Bay and change the aesthetic, they're welcome to do whatever they want.

Is that the other guy who's been on all the live TF movies, too? Because they need to get rid of him as well.
And they're making a goddamn Obi-Wan movie, that's a weaksauce argument. :P
