Transformers Film Franchise
According to a post by Roberto Orci, the Autobots travel across interstellar space in a large spacecraft, then travel to Earth in protoform mode. It is equipped with missile launchers and machine guns as well as a gun station that can move to shoot ships behind it. This ship would appear in Transformers: Ghosts of Yesterday, the prequel novel to the 2007 live-action film, called The Ark. Here, it was the vessel bearing Optimus Prime, Ironhide, Bumblebee, Ratchet and Jazz in their search for the Allspark. It is described as being spherical in shape, and its weapons systems and shields are superior to its Decepticon counterparts. It is also said to be able to hold approximately 350 Transformers.

Famous quotes containing the words film and/or franchise:
“Perhaps our eyes are merely a blank film which is taken from us after our deaths to be developed elsewhere and screened as our life story in some infernal cinema or despatched as microfilm into the sidereal void.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“Many famous feet have trod
Sublunary paths, and famous hands have weighed
The strength they have against the strength they need;
And famous lips interrogated God
Concerning franchise in eternity....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
