With all the recent Bumblebees in Transformers media that speak through the radio or through beeps, I'm kinda surprised there hasn't been a voiceless Bumblebee who communicates through sign language.
Like, how wholesome would it be if Bee lost his voicebox and then the Autobots gained a deaf or hard-of-hearing human ally who teaches him sign language?
This whole insistence on everything being connected to the Bayverse would be funny, if not for the fact that Lorenzo is actively hurting the movies and the franchise as a whole by following this mindset and using his power as a producer to force these restrictions.
Thanks to him, all future Transformers films now have to be set before 2007 and can't have long-term changes that'll contradict it, and Megatron (who's "supposed" to still be frozen in the Hoover Dam) and most of the other main Decepticons can't appear in major roles in the live action ones. Everybody else working on these movies wants to use those characters and go all in on moving the franchise forward with the clean slate and the goodwill that Bumblebee gave them, but they can't do that, and it's solely because Lorenzo won't allow them to.
Keep in mind, The Last Knight full on underperformed, and any future sequels in that continuity were straight up cancelled specifically in favour of continuing a new story arc with Bumblebee (which was originally meant to be a standalone prequel). Meaning the Bayverse is already effectively dead, and Lorenzo is now hindering future films to (kind of) follow its continuity for literally no reason.
(Bumblebee shows him and the other differently-designed Autobots first arriving on Earth in the 80s)
Lorenzo: It's just a little G1-esque, it's still good, it's still good!
(Transformers: Rise of the Beasts shows Unicron invading Earth in the 90s rather than being the Earth itself)
Lorenzo: It's just a little retconned, it's still good, it's still good!
(Transformers One takes place on a different-looking Cybertron with entirely new actors and character designs)
Lorenzo: It's just a little animated, it's still good, it's still good!
Fans: It's rebooted.
Lorenzo: I know.
Po was saying this from the start!
Kung Fu Panda 4 spoilers ahead:
Ok look,
If they’re gonna make Po the Spiritual Leader of the Valley of Peace, can Tigress at least become Grand Master of the Jade Palace? Even if it’s sometime in the future, can we see this happen? She deserves it.
AU Powder: I know you're tryin' to be all serious and sciency and stuff right now, Professor, but part of me really wants to comb you with a brush and call you a pretty kitty.

Heimerdinger: I mean, let's not rule anything out.

"People of Zaun, Sevika's been tellin' me about all these bullshit rumours and memes goin' around saying that I'm homophobic, so I'm just gonna put all that shit to rest. I 100% support gay rights!"
*crowd cheers*
"Now, Caitlyn rights, on the other hand…"
This might actually be the most intense line read of Matthew McConaughey's entire career, and it's in the kids' movie where he plays a damn koala.
Johnny: Hey Dad, Mr. Moon wants us to break into this rich bloke's theatre, so I thought we could do with a bit of help.
Johnny's Dad:
Oh man, you'd be so proud to know about all the crimes Johnny committed in the name of theater. Like Johnny really left his father's gang only to join the most gang-like theater group

The fact that this wasn't a one-off and Elsa still has little cameos in the X-Men videos (so she really is on the team in the HISHE "canon") is one of the most underrated bits in the whole series.
HISHE's original Let It Go cover from their Frozen video was so much better. Bloody Disney...
