Long Description:Shortly after "Bumblebee" morphs into a contemporary car, Sam and
Mikaela find themselves at the Griffith Observatory. From this
spot, they watch the arrival of the Autobots. After members of the
group are captured, the remaining Autobots discuss their strategy.
"Initially, the owners of Griffith Observatory were reluctant to
allow the crew of Transformers to film there, as it was undergoing
a major renovation at the time. However, they relented, as Susan
Bay, a relative of director Michael Bay, and her husband, Leonard
Nimoy, made substantial contributions to the funding of
Griffith."--from transformers.wikia.com
