// DATABASE ACCESS: OPERATION FIRESTORM (2009)
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen expanded the universe with ancient lore, combiner robots, and some of the most aggressive combat dialogue in the series. While Sam and co have trotted out some questionable lines, this film delivered unforgettable moments.
From the forest battle where Optimus takes on three Decepticons at once, to the resurrection of Megatron, here are the choicest quotes from the conflict.
