    I mean, for all the problems with these movies, that's something that holds up pretty well..

    Galvatron was the name of the Transformer created by the humans using Megatron's remains. Megatron's consciousness took over, so why would he not go back to calling himself Megatron? Also, I don't remember if he ever called himself Galvatron in AoE.. Even if he did though, given time, is it that big a deal if he went back to his first name (apart from obvious fan reasons -- but having humans make Galvatron is also pretty bad, soooo.....).

    I like how he looks actually. Very Gundam-ish.

    He died in the first one. Sam shoved the All Spark into him and killed him, they tossed his ass into an Ocean, Decpticons found a remaining bit of the All Spark and brought him back to life(Because that makes sense). I'm pretty sure of that anyways. Didn't want to rewatch the movie.

    I think Galvatron's origin is a testament to how much of a boner Michael Bay has towards making the humans the center of the plot. Why change something as interesting as an injured Megatron being dumped in to space by Starscream, only to be rebuilt by fucking Unicron???

    Wasn't Megatron executed by Optimus? Pretty sure Optimus said "fuck this" literally in the movies and started going ham.

    I was too distracted by the Pedophile "jokes" to really remember any other part of the movie

    Yeah, end of 3, Optimus killed Megatron when he tried to negotiate or stop the fighting or something.. But again, he was rebuilt in 4.

    Also, death means nothing to him in this franchise.

    It's pretty obvious if you look closely. Autobots transform into American made cars, whereas Decepticons transform into either German, Italian or Japanese made vehicles. All infilitration units, such as Bonecrusher, who transforms into American-made MRAP a mine-protected vehicle whose design is based on that of a South-African Casspir-MPV, Barricade who transforms into Ford Mustang, The Dreads who transform into Black Chevy SUV; also, flying Decepticons, such as Starscream and Blackout, all transform into American-made vehicles. Which makes sense considering all are infiltrator units. You also have Sentinel Prime, who transforms into Austrian made Rossenbaur Airport Crash response truck. But as you can see, there's a pattern emerging. (It's the Americans vs the Axis powers. In case it wasnt so blatantly obvious.)

    Don't get too nostalgic, death hasn't necessarily meant anything since the 1984 cartoon. Optimus and Starscream specifically but several others either have confused fates or odd reappearances as well.

    Well Optimus was brought back in the cartoon to try to salvage ratings. It's why we only got the first 3 parter in season 4 before being cancelled, so kids missed out on how much of a bad ass six shot was
