[Movie] Transformers Movie (07-04-07)

(plus one more autobot to replace the thankfully axed Acree)

Grimlock, goddamn them. It better be Grimlock.

I'm very much excited for this (as well as optimistic that it will end up a quality movie). I'm still wondering what they'll do about Soundwave, since they've stated many times that he won't be an 80's boombox (can't they just say he scanned off a player that purposely has that retro design)? He's still my favorite Decepticon of all time, so I'm really hoping they don't mess up his look.

Squishies/Humans: Spike, Others (unknown)

As if fans ever gave a crap about any human other than Spike and his dad. And I don't think they had a very big fanbase to begin with.

And wasn't Ravage one of Soundwave's casetticons (the dog)? Why should he count as one of the main Decepticons? Where are the other casetticons for that matter?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I'd much rather erase that travesty from my memory. Won't ever happen, though.

Latta's been dead for quite a while. Not exactly sure of what, but I hear he was pretty old. The guy they've been using for the current Starscream (TF Energon, etc) is a pathetic imitation. His Cobra Commander is even worse.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Man, G.I Joe movie still gives me the creeps to this day...something about that movie was just way off for an 8yr old boy to see. It wasnt easy seeing half the cast either day or get seriously messed up [blind or turned into a friggin lizard! =( ]

Aggreed. The movie is a marvel of animation, especially the intro, but the plot is so out there to the point that it makes longtime fans uncomfortable to even mention it; seriously, was there anyone who preferred Serpentor over Cobra Commander. On the upside, it was worth watching the following season (even though it was kiddie-sized considerably) just to see him get his comupance.

But no, used car salesman>multi-eyed smurf who turns into a lizard. Seriously, how did they even come up with that?

And that better not be a final script. Soundbyte? Screw that shit. Soundwave or nothing.



Honestly, could they please not mess with him? He's probably the most iconic Transformer after Optimus.

constructicons inferior.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I don't have a clue whose eye that is. Is it part of a face, or is the eye in the center? If it's the latter, it's got to be Shockwave, but I'm not sure.

The coloring resembles Optimus Primal, but that's it. Otherwise, the poster is a bit blah. Something that parodies a car ad would've been far more clever.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Looks more like Hot Shot.



Not that it's a bad thing, as the original design just looks a bit wimpy these days. But I do hope there will be more casing around the joint areas.

How ya doing, buddy?

I like how the flames on his truck will represent the flames that will occur throughout the world wide web.

Optimus is not "hip", okay. He's a by-the-books leader. That's what makes him cool. Not a stupid decal.

I'm mixed on this.

Most amazing jew boots

They worked faster than I thought. If it turns up again, I'll be sure to host it.

FELIPE NO

I just can't decide if a broken Soundwave is worse than no Soundwave at all.

How do you mess this up?

How much simpler could it be? It must take a truly talentless asshole to mess that up.

Does anyone REALLY care about this whole "mass-shifting" bullshit? Is everyone going to walk out of the theater in disgusted disbelief just because they have a 2 story tall robot transforming into a portable boombox?

THEY ARE ROBOTS FROM OUTER SPACE. WHO CARES ABOUT REALISM?

I can't believe he isn't in this movie. Instant fail.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Okay, what.

How the hell is that Megatron in any way? How the hell is that even a robot, period? It looks like something out of Halo. Isn't Megatron supposed to turn into a tank in this one?

Or maybe this is how they want him to look before he lands on earth. I guess that sort of makes sense, but still.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

He's a robot alien. Why would he look like anything WE'D create.

Robots in Disguise

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Alien Jet.

Yeah, great disguise. No one will suspect a futuristic, heavily-armed jet as a possible threat.

How ya doing, buddy?

Of course I'm going to bitch. I don't want to wait another 3-4 years to see how Soundwave will be handled.

I was speaking idiomatically.

You know, I think the eyes are going to light up (yellow for autobots, red for decepticons). I'm looking at Prime's face and it does look like there should be some lights in those empty sockets.

Regardless, my problem with Prime's look is that he has too many internal parts sticking out. It's like he's unfinished or something. I'm immediately reminded of Episode I C-3PO.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Is there a downloadable link for the 1080p trailer?

FELIPE NO
