:''Mojo is a little doggie in the [[Movie (franchise)|Movie]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:Mojo.jpg|thumb|250px|"Here [[Godzilla|lizard]] [[Hojoni|lizard]] [[Cruellock|lizard]]..."]]

'''Mojo''' is a male, smooth-coat Chihuahua owned by [[Sam Witwicky]]. He is coddled by [[Judy Witwicky|Sam's mom]] (much to Sam's chagrin), and apparently has a very weak bladder.

==Fiction==
===Transformers (2007)===
:'''Actor''': Chester

Although Mojo is Sam's dog, Judy appears to consider him her pet as well. She put a "Mojo's Penthouse" sign on his dog house, and puts girl dog jewelry on him, claiming that it's his "bling". Sam argued that it was hurting his self esteem issues, which he claimed were already heightened due to the fact that he was a Chihuahua.

Mojo broke his left-front leg shortly before Sam got [[Bumblebee (Movie)|his new car]]. Sam was carrying Mojo's pain pills when he was taken down to police headquarters, which made the overzealous officer there think Sam was a junkie.

When the [[Autobot]]s went to the Witwicky residence, Mojo made the mistake of releasing [[lubricant]] on [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]]'s foot. Upon discovering this, Ironhide requested permission to terminate the "rodent," but Sam Witwicky frantically told Ironhide that humans love Chihuahuas. Ironhide agreed to spare it, complaining that the lubricant would cause "rust".

Mojo was taken into custody with the rest of the family by [[Sector Seven]], with Judy threatening to kick the ass of anyone who hurt him, but Mojo was later released with the Witwickys. The agent who had to escort Mojo to the van with a catch pole used to control vicious or stray dogs must have felt really silly.

==Trivia==
* At one of the [[BotCon 2007]] movie writers panels, it was revealed that Mojo was originally going to be a Bulldog (as one of the writers owned a Bulldog named Mojo growing up), but director [[Michael Bay]] decided to change the dog to a Chihuahua.

==Short synopsis==
[[Image:Prime-Sam-Mikaela-poster.jpg|left|thumb|150px|Optimus...]]

The movie features [[Sam Witwicky]], a plucky teenager who just wants a cool car, but gets more than he bargained for. The beater he and his father take home is actually [[Bumblebee]], an alien robot from the planet [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], who plants Sam down in the middle of a civil war between Bumblebee's benevolent [[Autobot]] comrades and the evil [[Decepticon]]s who threaten the galaxy's peace. Both sides are after the [[All Spark]], a mysterious artifact that landed on Earth ten thousand years ago. The approaching robot-against-robot battle is a coming-of-age moment for Sam, who learns the meaning of his family's motto, "No sacrifice, no victory."

{{-}}

==Full synopsis==

[[Image:Megstheiceman.JPG‎|thumb|right|200px|Megatron? Is that you?!]]
The film begins with the history of Cybertron's destruction at the hands of Megatron, and his quest to obtain the All Spark. Megatron discovers the All Spark on Earth, but crash-lands in the Arctic Circle, becoming frozen in the ice. Captain Archibald Witwicky and his crew of explorers stumble upon Megatron's body in the late 19th century. Megatron's navigational system is unintentionally activated, and Archibald's eye glasses are imprinted with the coordinates to the All Spark's location. Sector Seven, a secret organization of the United States government, discovers the All Spark and builds the Hoover Dam around it to mask its energy signal. The still-frozen Megatron is moved into this facility, and is reverse engineered to further advance human technology.

[[Image:Movie Blackout SOCCENT.JPG|thumb|left|200px|Let the slaughter begin!]]
In the present day, the rest of the Decepticons — Blackout, Scorponok, Frenzy, Barricade, Starscream, Bonecrusher, and Devastator — have already landed on Earth and assumed the disguise of Earth vehicles. Blackout and Scorponok attack the U.S. SOCCENT Forward Operations Base in Qatar in an effort to use the military database to discover the location of Megatron and the All Spark, but they do not succeed. A small group of survivors under Captain William Lennox wander through the desert and are followed by Scorponok. The Autonomous Robotic Organism (shortened to "Autobot") known as Bumblebee is also on Earth, disguised as a 1977 Chevrolet Camaro, and looking for Sam Witwicky, the descendant of Captain Archibald Witwicky. As soon as he locates Sam, the two quickly begin to bond as Bumblebee helps Sam try and woo his crush, Mikaela Banes. Sam is unaware of the fact that Bumblebee is an alien, until he witnesses Bumblebee transform and send out a homing signal for the rest of the Autobots.

[[Image:Movie_Scorponok_leapsout.jpg|right|thumb|200px|I thought you were made of sterner stuff.]]
At the Pentagon, Defense Secretary John Keller oversees the investigation into the attack in Qatar. After Blackout's failure, Frenzy infiltrates Air Force One and attempts to download the all information relating to "Project Iceman". However, Maggie Madsen, one of the technicians studying the Decepticon infiltration signal, discovers Frenzy's actions and convinces the Pentagon to take down the Defense Network, halting Frenzy's download. When Air Force One makes an emergency landing, Frenzy slips into Barricade, and discusses his discovery of Archibald Witwicky, who has seen [[Cybertronian languages|their language]]. Using an internet search, they discover that Sam's glasses will that will lead the Decepticons to the All Spark. Frenzy and Barricade begin tracking Sam's location. Back in Qatar, the army rangers are attacked by Scorponok, who take refugee in a nearby village. Calling the Pentagon and getting air support, they discover that the Decepticons are vulnerable to high heat weaponry such as sabot rounds. Using this information, the soldiers inform the Pentagon that they now have a weapon.

[[Image:Movie Autobots.JPG|thumb|200px|left|Wheelie say find friends today.]]
Barricade confronts Sam, demanding Archibald's glasses. Bumblebee, who is following Sam, transforms and battles Barricade. Mikaela, who is also following Sam, is caught in the crossfire, but Bumblebee is able to defeat Barricade, while Mikaela decapitates Frenzy, who is still functioning and hides in Mikaela's purse as her cellphone. Bumblebee takes Sam and Mikaela to rendezvous with the rest of the Autobots. The Autobots —- Optimus Prime, Jazz, Ironhide, and Ratchet —- land on Earth and take on the forms of several Earth vehicles. They all meet in a dark, secluded alley, transform in front of the two amazed humans, introduce themselves and tell of the reasons they had to come to Earth to Sam and Mikaela. Meanwhile, Maggie made a copy of the intrusion signal and shows it to her friend Glenn Whittmann, who discovers a message with the signal about Sector Seven, Captian Witwicky, and Project Iceman. However, the FBI arrest Glenn and Maggie, who desparately tries to convince them not to go to war with the wrong country.

[[Image:Movie Autobots Sector Seven.JPG|right|thumb|200px|I'll use the universal greeting.]]
Sam, Mikaela, and the Autobots then return to Sam's home to retrieve the glasses. However, agents from Sector Seven arrive to take Sam and Mikaela into custody. Reggie Simmons, the agency's director, reveals that Mikaela has a criminal record and threatens Sam with life imprisonment, at which point the Autobots disable the convoy and rescue the teens. During the retreat, Sam and Mikaela are recaptured, and Bumblebee is also apprehended, against the pleas of Sam who assures the agents -- to no avail -- that he means them no harm. Prime orders the Autobtos to let them go, unwilling to use deadly force against the humans. At the Pentagon, a virus Frenzy uploaded during the Air Force One hack causes a global communications blackout, while Keller is finally informed of the Decepticons. After Bumblebee's capture, Optimus uses the glasses locate the All Spark at Hoover Dam, and declares that if they cannot defeat the Decepticons, he will merge the Cube with his spark.

[[Image:Movie Optimus Megatron.JPG|thumb|left|200px|One shall stand. One shall fall.]]
Sam, Mikaela, Keller, Maggie, Glenn, and Lennox's unit are brought to Hoover Dam, where they are shown the forzen Megatron and the All Spark, while Frenzy slips away. Locating the All Spark, he sends out an alert to Starscream, who mobilizes the the rest of the Decepticons. Due to Starscream's attack and Frenzy's sabotage, Megatron begins to revive, and Sam convinces the Sector Seven agents to release Bumblebee so that he can get the All Spark to Optimus Prime. The Decepticons chase the Autobots, who now possess the All Spark, into Mission City. Glenn, Maggie, Keller, and Simmons manage to contact the Air Force and direct F22s to Mission City. An ensuing battle results in casualties for both sides, including Jazz, who is killed by Megatron, while Bumblebee is crippled in an explosion. As Lennox orders Sam to take the All Spark to a building to be removed from the city, under escort from Ironhide and Rathcet, Megatron and Optimus Prime battle, while the soldiers remain to fight Devastator. Mikaela drags the injured Bumlebee away from the battle with a tow truck, but goes back, with Bumblebee's weapons killing Devastator. Ironhide and Ratchet are incapacitated by Starscream, and Megatron joins the persuit.

[[Image:Megatron allspark merge.JPG|right|thumb|200px|Now, light our darkest hour!]]
Sam's helicopter is destroyed by Starscream, and Prime challenges Megatron. The battle is fierce and dominated by Megatron. Blackout attempts to assist Megatron, but is killed by Lennox and the Air Force before he can engage. Starscream hides among a raptor squadron, destroying three fighters. Despite this, the Air Force and Lennox's rangers manage to inflict serious damage on Megatron, but he is still functional, and heading toward the Cube. Finally, with both Prime and Megatron weakened, Prime beckons Sam to shove the All Spark into his chest, destroying them both, but Sam instead takes the riskier action of shoving the All Spark into Megatron's chest.

[[Image:Movie Optimus ending.JPG|left|thumb|200px|[['Til all are one]]!]]
Optimus thanks Sam for his courage and for saving his life, while Bumblebee, who has regained his voice, asks permission to remain with Sam, which is granted. In an attempt to cover up the existence of the Transformers, Sector Seven is disbanded, while the remains of the Decepticons are cast into the Laurentian Abyss. With no other home to go to -- Cybertron having been destroyed by Megatron -- the Autobots decide to stay on Earth, and Optimus sends out a signal across space in an effort to locate any surviving Autobots, while Sam and Mikaela begin a relationship. Starscream, one of the Decepticons that survived the battle, leaves Earth.

''"Before time began, there was the Cube. We know not where it comes from, only that it holds the power to create worlds and fill them with life. That was how our race was born. For a time, we lived in harmony, but like all great power, some wanted it for good, others for evil. And so began the war - a war that ravaged our planet until it was consumed by death, and the Cube was lost to the far reaches of space. We scattered across the galaxy, hoping to find it and rebuild our home, searching every star, every world. And just when all hope seemed lost, message of a new discovery drew us to an unknown planet called... Earth. But we were already too late."''

==Other editions==
The 2007 Transformers film has more than one 'cut.'

* The worldwide theatrical release was essentially identical all around the world with a few minor exceptions.
** The film board of Malaysia{{fact}} required [[Judy Witwicky]]'s masturbation reference be removed. However, no such change has been made and her lines were not omitted from the film.
* The [[Wikipedia:IMAX|IMAX]] edition of the movie features two minutes of additional footage in the form of slightly extended scenes and very brief new scenes. Added material includes the following:
**Before heading to the lake party, Sam is shown picking Miles up at his house. Miles derides Sam's choice of car colors.
**After Sam is questioned by the sheriff at the police station, he is given an anti-drug bumper sticker and shown the "[[wikipedia:This is Your Brain on Drugs|This is Your Brain on Drugs]]" [[Public service announcement|PSA]] starring [[wikipedia:Rachel Leigh Cook|Rachel Leigh Cook]].
**After abducting Sam and Mikaela, Agent Simmons uses a device to monitor Sam's pupil dilation while interrogating him in the truck. He also remarks that he has "been there" when it comes to women with criminal records.
**Upon arriving at Hoover Dam, Simmons remarks colorfully that it is "Area 50". A few minutes later, he lists the nicknames of all the U.S. Presidents to have toured the facility.
**In Mission City, Lennox acquires short-range radios from a gun-toting, but easily-flattered, pawn shop owner.

==Prequel material==
Prior to the movie's release [[IDW]] Publishing released a four issue limited comic series entitled "[[Prime Directives]]", which chronicles the events which bring the Transformers to [[Earth]]. An animated version will be featured on the DVD.[http://tformers.com/Animated-Movie-Prequel-A-Movie-DVD-Bonus-Feature/8268/news.html] A novel, ''[[Transformers: Ghosts of Yesterday]]'', is about the truth behind humankind's first venture into space and how that event is related to the Transformers' presence on Earth, both past and present.

Since the movie's plot brings the audience into things from Sam's POV, as he learns of not only the Transformers' war but mankind's past history with Cybertronians, the prequel material provides a better handle on the intricate storyline.

It should be noted, however, that some dialogue in the film contradicts the prequel material, specifically pertaining to the years in which the frozen Megatron was moved from the Arctic to Hoover Dam.

Included in a Wal-Mart 2-Disc exclusive of the Movie DVD is a bonus disc entitled ''Transformers Beginnings'' a not-really-animated animatic version of IDW's Prime Directives prequel comics, voiced by some of the actors from the movie, the game and a bunch of other people.

==Reception==
The movie set multiple records when it opened, including biggest opening week gross for a non-sequel ($155.4 million), biggest Tuesday release gross ($27.4 million), biggest July 4th gross ($29 million), and the biggest foreign film opening in mainland China ($3 million).

The movie closed domestically on November 8, 2007, during which time it took in $319,071,806. (Domestic gross accounted for $310,578,372 before the IMAX version's release.) As of November 15, 2007, it has earned a ''worldwide'' gross of $702,918,603. It currently sits [http://www.boxofficemojo.com/alltime/domestic.htm at spot #19] in the "most domestic gross" list of movies, though this listing is ''not'' adjusted for inflation. When taking inflation into account, ''Transformers'' [http://www.boxofficemojo.com/alltime/adjusted.htm just ekes in at spot #95].

{{quote|I didn’t sleep through it the way I Novocained my way through the awful ''Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix'', but by the time it ended, I thought I might have vertigo or whiplash, or both, and I certainly lost more than a few of my remaining I.Q. points.|[http://www.observer.com/2007/bay-bombs-again Rex Reed]}}

Critical reception was hit-and-miss, [http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/transformers_the_movie/ more positive than negative but not by a lot], though it's sometimes hard to tell how many negative reviewers were more interested in criticizing [[Michael Bay]] in general over the movie itself. Otherwise, the most common negatives involved it being a generally think-free "spectacle"-style movie; even those who rated the movie positively noted it was a pure "popcorn" movie meant to wow its audience with CGI and explosions rather than make them think (Richard Roper noted in his "thumbs up" review "it has no nutritional value"). Whether one considers that a good or bad thing for a movie and if the movie was enough fun to overcome that is, of course, highly debatable. The other main culprit, again noted by many of the positive reviews, was its long running time, particularly the overly-chaotic, often hard-to-follow final big-bang extended ending action sequence. ([http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070705/REVIEWS/70620006/1023 Roger Ebert] noted that this sequence was what made him give the movie three out of four stars rather than the full four.)

Currently, two sequels are planned, with [[Shia LaBeouf]] and [[Peter Cullen]] signed for both. Michael Bay, Spielberg, and the two screenwriters have also returned, with pre-production already underway. Filming for TF2 is scheduled to begin in June 2008, for a planned release date of June 2009.

==Trivia==
* The Autobot computer generated models consisted of 35,592 total pieces, 7,435,478 polygons, 95,247 rig nodes, and 20,258 texture maps. If laid end to end, the pieces would stretch 3.11 miles.
* For all the robots combined, there are 60,217 pieces of geometry, 123,509,502 polygons, 144,341 rigging nodes, and 34,215 texture maps.<ref>Robertson, Barbara (2007). Heavy Metal. ''Computer Graphics, 30''(7), 12-17.</ref>
* The events of the movie span 4-5 days.

==Errors==
* Sunset occurs roughly every fifteen minutes.

* After Bumblebee backs into a corner of the power plant to evade Barricade, there is a close up shot of him spinning his wheels to make his getaway. However, the shot of the wheels spinning is at a different location: the empty warehouse that Bumblebee and Barricade had raced through moments earlier.

* During the scene where Optimus Prime scans a truck for his new body, the passing truck has what appears to be an Autobot sigil on its grill, but the actual truck that Prime turns into at the end of the scene has a much wider, flatter symbol on the grill, quite possibly a Peterbilt sign.

* When Simmons replays Sam's "last words" recorded onto his cell phone, it doesn't match what he said in the scene where he actually recorded them.

* When Lennox arrives as Sam and Mikaela are supposedly strapping Bumblebee with the tow truck's chains, Bumblebee is not actually there. When the shot changes angles to the other side of the truck, Bumblebee is sitting right beside the truck while Sam directs Mikaela to wrap Bumblebee in the chains. When Lennox tells Sam to evacuate the Cube, subsequent camera angles from this side of the truck are actually where Bumblebee was moments earlier, but he's not there again (it is unlikely the angle was meant to be from Bumblebee's perspective). When Sam starts to run off and Mikaela calls him back, Bumblebee is once again clearly not sitting beside the truck. In fact, the space he once occupied has the beige van he crawled out of, earlier in the battle.

* When Megatron fusion-cannon blasts Optimus Prime into an office building, to which Optimus Prime then falls off, it is clearly shown that he falls DIRECTLY onto a squishy with enough force to cause the floor underneath the fleshling to crack from impact, yet the bio-midget managed to just 'get up' and run away fine.

===Not actually an error===
* Sam and Mikaela, as well as Maggie and Glenn arrive at Hoover Dam on the same helicopter despite being from opposite ends of the country. Occasionally cited as an error, it is actually a narrative oversight, as it is likely that Sam and Mikaela were held in custody at a U.S. Air Base while waiting for Maggie and Glen to arrive with Secretary Keller's party by plane, then they all left for Hoover Dam together on the helicopters.

Recreator

2007-12-28T19:09:32Z

60.50.248.108:

The '''Recreator''' was a cylindrical piece of technology of unknown origin.

It was, in essence, a molecular assembler and disassembler capable of removing a target on a molecular level and storing them within the device. Once inside the machine, anything that was damaged was "healed" in the process.

Appearing as a large clindrical device of [[Human]] height, it possessed a button on the top which activated the device. Once online, a surface would extend on top with a small antenna serving as the focal point of the machine which would fire its molecular beam once the button was pressed.

==Fiction==
===Generation 1 cartoon===
The [[Quintesson]]s hired smuggler [[Dirk Manus]] to bring them the device to their secret base on one of the moons of [[Saturn]]. However, Dirk would be attacked by the Quintesson allied [[Terrorcon (G1)|Terrorcon]]'s; namely by the groups leader [[Hun-Gurrr]]. Dirk managed to crash land on [[Earth]] and enlisted the aid of [[Marissa Faireborn]] and the [[Technobot]]s though he secretly planned to betray them to the Quintessons.

After fulfilling his contract, Dirk learnt that he was betrayed by the Quintessons by being paid [[Mimic dust]] and attempted to detonate a [[micro nuclear nullifier]] device that would have destroyed the Recreator but instead learnt that the Quintessons had placed the bomb on his ship. Crashing back onto the moon, Dirk met with the damaged Technobots and tricked the Quintessons into thinking that he brought them as prisoners upon which he used the Recreator to heal them in order for the [[Autobot]] group to form [[Computron]]. The device was then confiscated by Marissa Faireborn. {{Storylink|Money is Everything}}

==Notes==
*Interestingly, when the Quintessons tested the device on [[Blot]], he claimed that he felt sick after being reassembled. Two conclusions could be reached: the device malfunctioned, or Blot's various bacterias, germs, and viruses are needed to keep him in good health. Neither prospect is appealing.

Ultimate Weapon

2007-12-27T04:45:19Z

60.50.248.108:

:''The Ultimate Weapon is a piece of technology in the [[Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].
[[Image:Ultimate weapon.jpg|thumb|250px|Running as an Independent.]]

The '''Ultimate Weapon''' is a cipher. An [[Wikipedia:Barack Obama|indeterminate unknown]] amid a field of [[Wikipedia:Unknown unknown|known knowns]] that [[Wikipedia:Schrödinger's cat|simultaneously embodies and fails to embody]] our hopes and dreams / fears and anxieties until proven to/not-to.

''It requires 2 AA battieries.

==Fiction==
===Animated continuity===
Seeking to take advantage of [[Rodimus Prime (G1)|Rodimus Prime's]] unrelenting <strike>[[Wikipedia:Emo (slang)#Fashion and culture|emo-ness]]</strike> self-doubt, [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]] created a box with [[Gimmicks|blinking lights]] [[Playskool|and sounds]] and claimed it was a weapon capable of destroying [[Earth]].

Galvatron hoped that the Ultimate Weapon's ''unknown'' nature would cause Rodimus to project all his anxieties and insecurities onto it. Instead the Ultimate Weapon helped Rodimus to conquer his doubts by externalizing them. Since logic dictated that if Galvatron ''had'' an Ultimate Weapon he would have used it long ago... the weapon had to be a fake. He had been coddling his own insecurities.

Rodimus observed that the ''real'' Ultimate Weapon was ''the mind''.

Galvatron, pissed off, broke his toy and ran away.
