Aaron Robinson Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 All I remember from the first one was all the human drama and the fact that the camera became epileptic every time a fight happened. I didn’t care for it at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DCAUFan1051 Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 .... My only gripe as the resident TF fan here is that they didn't use the real G1 character names for Sam and his father. Weren't Spike and Sparkplug just nicknames anyway? Actually, the nickname Spike was supposed to be used in the first film but the writers said it was just forced and didn't make sense. No they weren't niknames It was Sparkplug & Spike Whitwicky in the G1 cartoon... those were their names... then after the 86 animated film it was Spike, Carly, and their son Daniel Whitwicky. I understand kinda why they didn't use them in the movie because of the storyline with the grandfather, but still I would have liked it better.

JackFetch Posted May 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 Full trailer: http://www.geektyrant.com/2009/04/5336/ I'm fairly certain Bay is a perv by the way Megan Fox is filmed. You can see right up her shorts, not that I'm complaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightWing Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 Full trailer: http://www.geektyrant.com/2009/04/5336/ THAT looks awesome. It looks like maybe they actually took some advice from the first film and actually pulled the camera back on the action shots. Oh, and it's relatively easy to tell the 'bots apart now! I'm also happy that they're actually giving Sam a good reason to exist in the film's plot. This is very, very cool. I'm actually looking forward to the film now.

JackFetch Posted June 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 “A notable moment occurs during the dementedly frenetic final act of Transformers 2. A robot-on-robot fracas is unfolding around Egypt’s Giza Necropolis, with Devastator, an especially massive mechanoid comprised of several construction vehicles, set on clawing its way to the peak of a pyramid. As it lumbers up the dusty colossus, a shot tilts up to its mid-section, revealing two wrecking balls dangling down. Yes, Michael Bay, the man who brought us cyber-micturition in this movie’s predecessor, has one-upped himself: Decepticon testicles. “ http://www.empireonline.com/reviews/review....asp?FID=135198 um.........

Koete Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 I can take a crappy remake of "The Touch." I can take Decepticon testicles. But if Bay fucks up Soundwave, I'm going to bust a cap in his ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't bust a cap in someone's ass over a Transformers movie, nor do I feel strongly either way about Michael Bay as a director. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 I really don't know if I'm willing to spend money on this. The first one was fun but insubstantial, it really flopped on a second viewing outside the cinema. I'll go but I won't be happy about it.

dc20willsave Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Got my tickets for midnight, mainly because I want to get it out of the way. If the movie sucks, then at least I'm not devoting hours I could have spent doing something else watching it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuaveStar Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 See, I'm missing quite a few movies in the cinema recently(Star wars, terminator, wolverine) and this may be another one that goes on that list of stuff I will wait for the DVD for, like I did with the first one, which was alright, but nothing special to me.

Guest DCAUFan1051 Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 For those that don't wanna go see it for fear of it sucking why not wait until it is a cheap rental? I dunno if they have RedBox DVD Rentals overseas but I have seen a few movies from them that I didn't wanna waste the theater cash on and it only cost $1.06 for each 1 after tax. Right now it's a $$ issue with me as far as going to see this. I want to but can't afford to at the current time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 My main problem with these films is that they are actually increasing my apathy for my childhood. Transformers means a lot less to me now than it did when that first film came out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuaveStar Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Well, it's not the money issue, it's just i really felt so apathetic towards the trailer as it just looked like it was going to take the original, which was a bit shit when you look at it in any depth, and just rehash that with more explosions, so that's whats making my decision really. Though money is going to be a big factor, though not as big as apathy to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Transformers means a lot less to me now than it did when that first film came out. I don't think I've actually watched the first live action one since I got the DVD... if I want my childhood and Transformers I look to the G1 cartoon and 1986 movie. I think the problem with the sequel is Bay. Him and all the false info that he said he would reveal... I think that's the worst campaign ever. Don't fuvking lie to us... if you don't want shit leaked then talk about what you can when it's appropriate. But don't lie to the people about the damn film..... I'm feeling sooo negatively about this film I maybe just wait for the DVD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuaveStar Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 I mean how the film really had nothing going for it, and was just "So, when does Optimus show up? Is that Optimus?" Also The Rock is and was fucking great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Armageddon is really odd for me. Its a pretty shallow film really but I still find myself involuntarily getting bleary-eyed when Willis sacrifices himself. Also The Rock is a great film. Not smart, but great.

Koete Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 I'm still looking forward to it. As long as Megan Fox is hot and giant robots punch each other in the face, I doubt I'll leave the theater unhappy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
