First teaser airs during the Super Bowl (http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117998229.html?categoryid=13&cs=1&nid=2564), February 1st. Film is set to debut this summer, June 6th. Anybody else excited? Soundwave's in it!
-
That's a nifty face thingy there. Galvatron?

Speculated to be The Fallen (http://transformers.wikia.com/wiki/The_Fallen_(G1))himself.
-
Oh hey.
-
I'm pretty excited.
-
Yeah, I'm definitely looking forward to this.
-
as much as Shila beouf is a good actor, I really dont want him in this transformers movie. I didnt like him in the first one much either.
-
as much as Shila beouf is a good actor,
he's really not. he's only getting roles because he goes to bed with Steven Spielberg every night.
i want to see him in this movie and nothing else afterwards. and i want to see as little of him (and the other humans) as possible. the humans are what are holding the first back back from being a truly spectacular movie. they take up way too much time.
-
Well, nice. We'll get another Transformers movie. And I agree with Satoryu on the fact humans take up too much screen time. What I want to see is Megatron returning. There CAN'T be Transformers without Megatron. Though I AM looking forward to see if Unicron appears in the movie.
-
Since there's Soundwave in it, I'm looking forward to it.
-
This movie needs a Leonard Nimoy voiced Galvatron.
-
The Rumor is that it has Devastator and giant piramids. That's enough for me to see this movie.
Waspinator wouldn´t be bad either.
-
It's not a rumor. The movie does have Devastator.

Devastator.
Ok, I'm sold. XD
-
If only it had Astrotrain... :(
-
It better have a lot of Starscream being a traitor, with a crown and all.
Unicron not being a giant cloud ( ha !, i'm a nerd )
and....well, more devastator. Kicking the ass of the piramid of Giza.

Heh, I'm just hoping Starscream has more than seven words in the whole film this time.

It would be nice.

This film needs less humans and more Trypticon.

Yes, but it needs more Vector Prime.
-
It's not a rumor. The movie does have Devastator.
I'd rather have Menasor or Bruticus. :P
If "Starscream's Brigade" taught me anything, it's that Bruticus > Devastator.
-
I hope we see some transformer fusion.

Just a little reminder: the trailer for ROTF will air tomorrow, during the Super Bowl--third quarter to be exact. Michael Bay confirmed it won't reveal all too much as he isn't big on spoiling everything in one trailer.
Following the Super Bowl TV spot, it will be available online followed by yet another trailer before "Friday the 13th" (guaranteed to suck).

Most people will probably just wait till it shows up on the Internet.

Precisely. Hell, a lot of people only watch it/DVR it for the commercials.
Not me though. I LOVE Football. I hope it's a good game this year.

same here.
although i have a feeling the trailer will be more interesting than the game.
-
People are actually watching the game? None of the football fanatics I know of are. Mainly since both teams apperantly suck.
-
for those that haven't seen it
http://animationroadshow.blogspot.com/ first 2 vids are the GI Joe and Transformers 2 trailer, as well Land of the Lost, Star Trek and Up.
-
This movie has a chance to be JAWESOME. Because from what they tell us, there'll be MOAR robots this time. And big mo'fo' DEVASTATOR will be in it. Of course, if there once again, will be so much of that Shia WHATEVERHISNAMEISIDONTCARE then I will cal this movie CRAP and be done with it.
Still, I have faith this time.
-
New awesome trailer!
http://jalopnik.com/5234950/new-transformers-2-trailer-now-in-high+res
-
Okay, okay. [tornado fang] what I said in my previous post. This movie is [parasitic bomb].
There was one good fight, ONE GOOD FIGHT in the entire movie. Rest is just Shia LeBouf, army men getting blown up and then one or two minutes of a true fight, The Fallen and Megatron VS Optimus Prime. Oh, and this happens at the end of the movie.
GREAT IMPROVEMENT THERE MICHAEL BAY! GREAT [tornado fang]ing JOB!
-
Anyone else think Optimus is going to die in it? He seems to in every other series/spinoff, and with Devastator in it crushing everything, there's an even bigger chance [eyebrow]
-
film: good not great.
-
The movie's plot kinda sucks. The main things that are holding it together are special effects, a few perverted jokes, and two epic fights (I'm counting the forest one).
And Irgendein (or anyone else intrested), not to ruin it for you but
[spoiler]He dies and comes back. Whoop-de-friggin-do. He doesn't even fight Devastator! Just those two "ghetto" robots and a freaking lazer built by the humans. Oh, and the Matrix is pixie dust.[/spoiler]
PM me if you want me to ruin the plot/jokes.
-

Wow, that's actually how I thought the movie would go.
Glad to see I wasn't disappointed. There's also a reason for me not to go see it ever.
-
Okay, I just got home from seeing this movie, and really, where do I begin?
First off, I'll just tell you that despite the first movie being entertaining, the story was terrible, as was the story telling. The problem is, it made so much money. Why is that a problem? Because I have this theory that, if a [parasitic bomb] stories sells, then there is NO reason to improve or even try for the expected sequel. And by god, Michael Bay has proved me right once again. Sadly, this is one of the few times that I've semi-hated being right, because even I didn't expect the story to be this bad.
You know what, I'll just say SPOILER ALERT, and I'm not going to even use the Spoiler Tag, because this movie is so bad, it's not even worth the spoiler tag. This story is really something that had to have been thought up in 45 minutes over an order of General Tso Chicken and Boneless Ribs, because it makes ZERO [tornado fang]ing sense. I mean, I can't even say that there are so many plotholes that you can drive Optimus through, because the entire movie is just one giant plot hole that's been shot through your brain. The first fight is enjoyable, for the most part, even though they just bring in random Autobots like Sideswipe and the "Arcee Twins" EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE 3 OF THEM. After that fight, you pretty much never see them again, or really doing anything important, even during the last fight of the film. Hell, Ironhide is used so little and I don't even remember if Ratchet speaks or not at all. Bumblebee, for some reason, is once again having trouble with his voice, for no other reason than funny radio schtick again. Then come the Decepticons, and except for Megatron, Starscream, Soundwave, and Devastator (the NEW one and not the old Tank one), I can't really name any others. Oh wait, there was JetFire & Wheelie, who switched sides for really no reason. Mind you, at the last fight, I'd say 10 more Decepticons show up, but they are not named, useless, serve little purpose in defeated humans hiding behind [tornado fang]ing rocks, and ALL look the same. For a movie that wants to sell toys, marketing wise, this was done so poorly. Ah yes, but I'm forgetting the two new Autobots that hung out with Bumblebee, Sam, Megan, and whatever Tuturro's character's name was in this. The Twins.
I've gotta say, I've seriously not seen anything this racist in a long, LONG time. These two robots make Jar Jar look like [tornado fang]ing Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. My mind was seriously blown at how racist these robots were. What amazes me is that in all the reviews I've read, I haven't really seen anything mentioned about them. I didn't know until Josh mentioned something about them before the movie began. I mean, when one of the obviously black stereotype robots says "We don't really read", that blew my mind. I don't care that it's a robot saying it, that could've come out of [tornado fang]ing Song of the South, it was so blatantly racist. LoL, then Josh told me that it was Bay's idea to put them in.
The plot with Sam made no sense, and again, what kind of hardcore loser are you if you're leaving behind your [tornado fang]ing Transforming Camaro, and more importantly, your Megan Fox looking girlfriend who just happens to be Megan Fox. Well it doesn't matter, as apparently his school has nothing but hot chicks, one of whom is a Decepticon spy. Yes, a HUMAN Transformer. Not to mention his Astrology teacher, who CLEARLY wanted to have sex with his hot female classmates, and is saying this in front of the Dean. Also, in terms of continuity, just with Sam alone, there are so many things so poorly done, but obviously meant to be drowned out with all the explosions, and Megan Fox's slo-mo tits running. And really, that's probably the only redeemable aspect of this clusterfuck. I'd say Peter Cullen as Prime, but I'd almost rather he wasn't in this movie.
There are so many things wrong with this movie, I don't think I can describe them all. This is something I never thought I'd say, but this movie had too many explosions. I think I saw trees explode, pyramids explode, maybe even tits explode. I can't even tell anymore. The Matrix of Leadership is somehow a key to a Sun Destroying Energon Creator machine, turns into dust when Sam touches it, and is reformed by Sam running his sock full of Matrix Dust to Prime, dying, getting taken to Autobot Heaven, proving himself a leader by dying, and then sticking into dead Prime to reactivate him, only to have the Fallen teleport and rip it right out of Prime INSTANTLY. The Fallen also knows Telekinesis too, but somehow couldn't take out Prime who somehow merged with Jetfire's broken down body & Spark so he could fly.......OMG IT'S ROBOCOP 3. XD And speaking of the final fight between Prime, Megatron & The Fallen, I don't know what Kharaxel is talking about when he says that it's the one good fight of the movie. IT HAS THE WORST ROBOT CG IN THE ENTIRE [tornado fang]ing MOVIE. The Forest Fight was better than that [parasitic bomb].
This movie is really just one giant cock joke, and believe me, there are probably about 8-10 throughout the entire movie. It just skullfucks your brain. I can definitely say that it's the worst movie I've seen all year, hands down. This movie could be worse than Indy 4, and you know how much I hated that movie. The only two things I came out of this movie thinking was that there's nothing wrong with Megan Fox slo-mo tits running scenes and that Michael Bay is a racist. I don't know if I ever want to see this again. I'm actually glad I didn't see the IMAX version of this, with 20 more minutes of Robot on Robot action, cause seriously, if I think a movie has too many explosions, then something's [tornado fang]ing wrong.
-
That's a seriously nice review there PB.
After reading that, I can honestly say that it sounds just like the first movie, except sans the slow mo Megan Fox tits and the Fallen. It could just be me.
And worst movie of the year PB? It's worse than Dragonball Evolution? Seriously?
Wow, that's pretty [tornado fang]ing bad. Too bad it'll sell like hot cakes.
-
...I'm probably gonna still go see it (seeing as friends are going) but I can safely same I'm probably not going to enjoy it.
-
And worst movie of the year PB? It's worse than Dragonball Evolution? Seriously?
I have yet to see DB:E. Even so, with DB:E, I always said that it had Zero % chance of being good. Despite the terrible story & story telling, I was at least entertained by the first TF movie.
...I'm probably gonna still go see it (seeing as friends are going) but I can safely same I'm probably not going to enjoy it.
Hey, this is just my opinion. Good luck.
-
If you want a taste at how bad DB:E is, here's a tiny spoiler.
Goku is the [tornado fang]ing Avatar, and the Kamehameha is the ultimate air bending technique.
-
...I'm probably gonna still go see it (seeing as friends are going) but I can safely same I'm probably not going to enjoy it.
Just tell your friends to wake you when Robobeard or any of the trans vs trans fights come up. That way, you'll enjoy the movie and not tread through what stopped the movie from getting any better.
-
*Read PB's review*
Damn, that's pretty much what I think. So who wants Michael Bay's head on a platter after this monstrosity?
-
And speaking of the final fight between Prime, Megatron & The Fallen, I don't know what Kharaxel is talking about when he says that it's the one good fight of the movie. IT HAS THE WORST ROBOT CG IN THE ENTIRE [tornado fang]ing MOVIE. The Forest Fight was better than that [parasitic bomb].
And lawl, I now realize that I worded my previous post wrong. I meant to say that:
THE ONLY [tornado fang]ing GOOD FIGHT IN THE MOVIE WAS THE ONE IN THE FOREST! AND THEN THERE'S LIKE MINUTE OR TWO OF MEGATRON AND FALLEN VS OPTIMUS, AT THE END OF THE GODDAMN MOVIE. AND BECAUSE THERE'S NO OTHER REAL ROBOT FIGHTS IN THE MOVIE, THOSE TWO ARE THE BEST BY DEFAULT.
Jesus.
And I agree PB. I must admit that first movie at least entertained me. But this? [tornado fang].
-
Well, since I couldn't stand to watch the first one, I doubt I should touch this... monstrosity.
-
[wall of text]
I got you one up over ANYTHING you can mention about this movie. (Even the Pretender Alice thing.)
Robot. [tornado fang]ing. Testicles.

OH, I'm WELL aware! I just didn't feel like mentioning all the [ray splasher] jokes.
-
I feel SO glad I didin't see this insult of the franchise. DB: Evolution's plot made way more sense than this mindless cowrape.
Besides, DB: Evolution is based off DB, not DBZ. get your facts straight fans (to most of those that complained Vegeta was absent in the entire movie), it had Master Roshi dying, and coming back to life by the dragon. that was in DB, right? yes. I watched the series' ending.
Glad you made your review PB, and I thank my brother for seeing TF: TrotF (The revenge of the Fallen), he told me it was bbbaaaaddd..
-
there's only one The in the title... you know, like how the thread title is...
-
I only decided to have fun with abbriviations here, besides adding another "the" does kinda make it sound more cooler..
-

Really? Based off DB, in which Goku & Chi Chi are teens in High School? It's Hollywood Dragonball. That's all there is to it.
-
Comparing some similarities, Hollywood Dragonball did manage to get some facts straight.
- Goku and ChiChi were old friends
- Piccolo was the evil Demon King
- There was no mention of Sayins anywhere
- Master Roshi died once
- Goku had the ability to transform into Ozaruu, the were-ape on the night of the full moon (or in this case, eclipse)
- There was a dragon that slept inside the earth until awakened by collecting seven balls
- Goku had the 4-star ball
And that's to it from the origonal series, which is the real movie source. not Z, and it made more sense than TF: RotF.
-
besides adding another "the" does kinda make it sound more cooler..
no it doesn't. it makes it sound cheesier than it already is.
it doesn't help your grammar either.
-
In some cases, the cheesier, the better. 8U
But this doesn't look like one of them.
-
Sheeeeeeit. And my sister liked this why? XD
She swears that I needed to see it just cuz and that the movie is one big hit or miss for people, but looking at that review and remembering some of the stuff that Transformers 1 did... Er, don't know if want. XD
Finally, illiterate robo bros? And it wasn't even in a funny "haha" way? Man and I thought EVERYTHING that could be bad about this movie was already mentioned.
-
Y'know... Even if free tickets magically fell into my lap, I don't think I'd want to bother with seeing it. There are better ways to waste an afternoon.
-

if free tickets fell on my lap, Id probably be too lazy to go see it anyway. Im a big Star Trek Fan, and I still havent gone to see the movie. XD
-
If I had free tickets, I'd have to go throw them into the volcano that forged them since they would obviously be pure evil.

QUICKLY FXENI. CAST THEM INTO THE FIRE!
-

Meh I'd drill a hole into the earth and put it in the molten core of the earth, that's how much I didn't like the movie. Man why did they have to over power Optimus at the end. o//////o
-
It'd be one thing if it were so bad its good, but it's not. I should just rent the B-movie Transmorphers for the lulz.
-
If you're gonna watch any movie-related Transformers, you might as well watch the old 80s one. That one is awesome, unlike what we have to deal with now.
-
The only thing that I really actually like was when they dumped the politicial in the middle of Egypt.
-
So let me get this straight... All of you are condemning this movie based off of one person's review, even to the point that you're saying you'd go to fictional extraneous lengths to destroy free tickets to this movie, yet NONE of you with the exception of said reviewer have actually seen said movie?
I don't mean to call all of you sheep, but...

Trust me, my brother's seen it, it's a like/hate movie for me because I haven't seen it yet. I've seen a couple of reviews, some bad some good, so yeah.
-
it's not just one negative review. it's legions of bad reviews that spell this movie's (critical) doom.
-
You're missing my point.
Funnily enough, Transformers 2 currently has about the same rating on Rotten Tomatoes as Speed Racer, Speed Racer of course being an awesome movie that unfortunately doesn't pander to the universal critical audience. Critical analysis cannot give you any perception of how fun a movie is to watch, it can only give you a perception of how good said movie is when held up against so-called cinematic masterpieces(Such as Slumdog Millionaire, which I don't care what critics say, that movie was absolutely painful to watch).
I am not offering up a personal endorsement of this movie. My point was that various people have been giving opinions, opinions based only on these/this negative review(s), on a movie that they have not actually seen for themselves.
-

Well, then something is really wrong there. I've seen both movies and Speed Racer was MUCH better than this movie, specially at the end, my god the whole thing in Egypt felt like [tornado fang]ing forever -____-
-
Well currently of this post, the movie is creepy on 600 Million bucks worldwide. So awesome.
Anyhow, an interview with Shia suggested Galvatron and Dinobots, but things change, even the original script for the movie had a lot of characters and concepts switch. (Egypt instead of Las Vegas, Sideswipe instead of Hot Rod, ect).
So far, looking good ROTF.
-
SubZero is right. I mean, I saw how badly this movie was getting panned, but I went to see for myself. I mean, I may tell you not to go see it, which I am mind you because the movie is garbage, but always base your opinion of something via your own viewing, not by just my detailed review of it.
Having said that, don't go see this movie. Go see Public Enemies, or Up, or something. Maybe rent it when it comes out.
-
I did see it. I didn't like it... at all. It was all nonsensical action with a half-assed plot. The only transformer done remotely well was freaking Ravage, and that was before he spewed out those nanobots. I could go on for a while, so I'll stop there.
I played the game right after that (the PC version), and that was more entertaining than the movie. It also even made more sense, which is sad.
-
I actually fell asleep when I saw it.
-
I saw it, but my has-a-strange-taste-in-movies sister paid for it, so meh, can't rant on about "I paid for THIS?!" and all that, but I'll
review describe it (as well as the first technically) with a comparison. Note that this is just my opinion;
So the way I think about it, both movies were/are a room, at first, the room is relatively clean/a bit untidy, a few loose shelves, one too many dirty clothes on the hanger, maybe a bit of an overfilled garbage can in the corner.
Two weeks later (like the 2 year gap between the movies), the room hasn't been kept it tidy, and now the it's just a mess, there's dirty clothes everywhere, making it hard to tell which is which and where everything is, the bed is just a mess if it can even be reached through to the pile of clothes everywhere, the garbage can is overflowing, it's just a mess everywhere. If the room doesn't get cleaned in about 2-3 weeks, possibly less, it'll be messy enough that they'll be sitting in their own crap.
But that's just the way I think of it.
-
I knew I would hate this movie just a few minutes in, when I saw a little Ice Cream truck with "Suck my Popsicle" written on the side.
On the plus side, I went in with the lowest expectations I could possibly get, and the movie met them. Mission Accomplished.
-
I seriously can't understand.
How can you [tornado fang] up something that simple like a movie about ROBOTS THAT TEAR EACH OTHER APART.
I know directing movies can be hard, but nothing excuses this garbage. Hey, Michael Bay? Why didn't you include more robot action?!
MB: What do you mean? There's that little robot humping a leg.
Wat.
-
Don't forget about Devastator's testicles.
-
I seriously can't understand.
How can you [tornado fang] up something that simple like a movie about ROBOTS THAT TEAR EACH OTHER APART.
Yeah, that bothers me too. I mean, you have to know that your audience are going to be a lot of people who grew up with the cartoon, and in turn, mindless silly "Commando" style action flicks. We don't expect much, in terms of story, plot, or hell even character development. But seriously, at least make the poor plot make some kind of [tornado fang]ing sense.
And really, you've got the possibly awesome (I say possibly because we only see them for about 10 minutes) Autobots to use in Ironhide, Arcee,, Sideswipe, and instead decide to make the racist twins your main stars.
-
I would tell how bad the movie is after viewing it but I think it would be a tad bit redundant.
-
So guys. Best movie ever or best movie ever?
-
instead decide to make the racist twins your main stars.
okay seriously, am I the only one who sees them as the stereotype of white guys trying to be gangsta? And the 'We don't read' line is just reffering to them unable to read the older runes, after all, Jetfire only can read them.
Or maybe i'm stupid enough to understand silly point from a stupid story, right gaiz? 8D
-

LoL, they're CLEARLY black stereotypes. They have buck teeth, and one is even gold GOLD! And I'm aware of what it's referring too, but it's still blatantly racist.
-

Really? but they have big ears too, and I could swear I noticed something of freckles too. But whatever, I blame the media and the people for having such ideas.

...Yes, they do have big ears, and possible freckles or bumps. That just adds to it even more. LoL, and it's our fault that the robots are stereotypically racist?
-
if black culture didn't exist, they wouldn't be copying it, now would they?
i hope that didn't sound Klanish.

This.
Stereotypes wouldn't exist if they didn't have something to be based on. Could it be that there's a deeper problem somewhere else? *sarcastic gasp*
