A transformer without lines isnt a transformer at all in the Movie.

But then again Dinobots were created without the ability to speak at first, till they were their brains were upgraded to control their Dinosour 'instincts' from harming their own Autobots.
I dont know as different franchise interpret the same character differently but it feels really odd to have a mute Grimlock considering his "Me Grimlock" lines are fairly iconic.
I dont remember much from G1 but I did remember they do talk a bit. Not exactly intelligent bunch. Other franchise like Animated to Cybertron games, they do talk a little bit.
The movie dinobots are pretty ugly too.

I don't think the writer of the Transformers movies really cares about anything related to the animated series.
At this point the Transformers movies is becoming like the Resident Evil movies.
They just throw in random characters from the franchise, writes a shitty script that ties them all together and turn them into a movie.
Thats true but one thing you should know is, I think even Animated and Prime cartoon does take some creative liberty that stray from the original cartoons. I dont think Hound, Scoponok or Dirft are random characters but they are fairly niche ones.
It is just that the movies writers gives zero shit about decent writing and that becomes a problem for me.
At least they didn not make it like humans vs space robots, like the third and second movie, I think I am ok with it if they just stick with robots beating each other.
