Hey folks, Harry here with a ridiculously big TRANSFORMERS 2 trailer - which was released for a blink of existence by way of a crappy YouTube thing that got sent to me... but now. Now you can really see it - and it looks pretty damn hot. Really hope it kicks our asses without hesitation this summer. So far, it looks real damn good! Check it out...

    Plot holes, terrible dialogue, horrible camera work, dumb script, cringe comedy, stupid writers, hack director, amateur actors, disgusting robot designs, other sci-fi movie plot ripoff,

    Jar Jar Binks pissing and farting transformers, Linin Park, shaky-cam, 2 second quick cut commercial editing, overacting ab-lib dialogue, Shia LeDouche, Bay's stereotypical racism

    by lex romero

    Seriously? Because it's just horrible.



    Trannyformers_apologist pretty much hit all the key problems about the first film. I just didn't think it had any of the qualities that make a decent action film, let alone a blockbuster.



    However some of the action shots looked better, they seem to have actually pulled the camera back and held camera shots for more than a split second. Fingers crossed they're something to write home about this time.

    Settle for this. You know its impossible to make a big budget blockbuster AND a good movie at the same time. nope. never been done. Well except a few THOUSAND times, but who cares. Morons will happily sit through an hour of cheesy love triangles, goofy hijinks of young boys, and terrible dialogue. All you need is a good 30 minutes of 'splosions at the end, and we are sold.

    by toadkillerdog

    In the first movie - the action so fast and frenetic and compressed in a 'small' area that you could not identify which robot was which. That does not mean this movie will be good, but it should be better than the last one. Yes, I will be seeing it, probably second week.

    by noncents

    The MOVIE industry is a COMPLEX, in the sense, the budgetary and managerial layering allow individuals that are subservient to the master flow to generate such garbage at a scale an individual would never be able to amass; organization-wise. There are names out there that end in Berg or Brams or Stein or so many names I can't list, but the point is, the movie is an industry inundated with unoriginal children of wealthy fathers with nepotism splashed all over it. There probably is some fat gay in his mother's basement that has the most riveting take on filmmaking and storytelling, but will never be able to navigate the world of FATHERS and SONS that own the industry to compete. Yes, there are miracle hustlers that break the chain sometimes, but the CHAIN is strong. HUGE families that control everything and PROTECT their own. Tis life.

    Transformers- wacky hijinks of a kid and his car: peeing on things, hiding in backyards, trying to bang the hot slut.... then a few minutes at the end of what everyone wanted to see: robot fighting.do i need to go on? Fuck, at one point i was a Bay fan. The Rock and Bad Boys were good cheese, but he lost it around The Island. He doesnt even try anymore, but people give him a pass because he gets attached to big movies. He should go back to mid range action movies, and leave the big budget blockbusters to professionals that actually take pride in their work. youre the troll, beeyatch.

Without a doubt, I know more about this movie than you do - know more and have seen more. So, you go ahead and continue on being excited and worshipping and I'll be sitting next to you in the theater, watching your face as you pretend to like what you're seeing, and calling you a liar when you say you actually liked it.

Does Megan Fox have a purpose other than that already outlined above?

    We all know what the TF movie pattern is by now

    by thegreenstyle

    months (years) of talkbackers decrying it and michael bay, while the public waits with anticipation. once the movie comes out, all the talk backers will break down and see it, and a majority will, initially, say, "hey, that was pretty good!" and even, dare I say, love it. this will last through the movie being on DVD. Then, poser attitudes resurface, as talkbackers break down into continuing "it sucks" until the next one comes out, all the while taking time to watch the last one at least once every couple of months. and the general movie going audience will just love love love it.

    That IS what happened last time. It can't be denied, because if you try to, then I just know your wrong. And from the looks of things, that IS whats happening this time. If you deny it, you just aren't smart or genre savvy about reality.

    FFS if one more person claims...

    by lex romero

    ...that the reason some of us hate the film is because we "think the toys/cartoons are sacred" or "were expecting an artistic movie rivaling citizen kane" I will go fucking insane.



    A large majority of people that thought the first film was shit was because it was a shit blockbuster/action film. we were not comparing it to Kubrick or demanding "Citizen Prime". We were not claiming it was shit because it didn't show fidelity to the cartoon series. We were saying it was shit, because it was crappy entertainment, devoid of a lot of things that make a blockbuster entertaining.



    So can all the people that loved the first pile of crap STOP using these straw man arguments as a way of "defending" the first film and ignoring the real points.



    I mean, fuck, I can't be bothered to go into it all again and I'm sure you don't care to hear my opinion. But for one, just remember, the first film was 140 minutes long and had how much action? Maybe 15-20 minutes? And what was the rest of the film? Unecessary human characters running about doing shit I don't give a fuck about. You guys keep claiming we should just enjoy it for the robot action, but there was hardly any of it!



    If 2 hours of crappy humans with crappy dialogue doing crappy stuff, just so you can get to the last 15 minutes of poorly shot robot action, is your idea of a "fun" blockbuster, then great. But don't start waving e-penis' about claiming that people "hating" on the film are hating on it for trivial reasons.

    If plot/characters/logic/acting ability/decent editing are all unecessary in blockbusters, then go watch Van fucking Helsing and come back and claim that's a "great" film and we just need to "turn our brains off" because we were expecting too much.

    I think they're equally to blame tbh, heh. I could have lived with the crappy human scenes in Tranformer's a bit more if I thought the action scenes were up to scratch, but I really wasn't fond of them.

    However, the ones in this new trailer look better though, better framed, camera pulled back, less shakey cam etc. So I have hope that Bay has taken on board constructive criticism.


    And believe me I'm not completely closed off to Transformers 2 being a decent film, I would fucking love to walk out of the cinema thinking it was awesome (I'll concede that they are also a lot of people who desperatly want to hate the film just so they have something to bitch about).

    I don't know where you're getting your info from. :-/ Nobody claimed they didn't want comedy in the action film. No one claimed they were against romance. Personally I'm just against shitty comedy in action films.



    Now...comedy is a very subjective thing, but if you honestly thought the stuff in the trailer was lol worthy then I have to wonder what you won't laugh at, because the jokes were just shit. You're not a fan of Dane Cook by any chance?




    Same issue with romance I suppose, though it think people have less expectation of that being of any quality because it's mostly background noise. I know all action films are given romantic subplots, and for the most part I don't mind them as long as they're not intrusive (Spidey 3 got shitty because the emo romance drama became more important than teh superhero stuff). The Sam/megan Fox romance isn't completely horrible, just painfully cliched "loser guy gets hot girl!" stuff and it was given far too much story time in the first film. Did we really need the first 30 minutes of the film to be about sam trying to get with megan fox?

The sooner all those here that are 40 years old and love to post profanity laden opinions about these movies realize this, the happier they will be. LET IT GO.

    First off, I stopped wearing silk boxers when I was 15 - how many years till you're 15? And I do work in the film industry. And I love action movies with comedy. I grew up watching the Transformers cartoon and having the toys. And when The Rock and Bad Boys came out, I thought they were awesome. But then I grew up. But Michael Bay stayed exactly the same. No growth or maturity. And maybe that's what you love about him, but it's what I hate. I love being entertained. But I don't like having my intelligence insulted. He's pretty damn good at insulting intelligence. The guy is also a certified prick. He doesn't give a shit about film. He cares about making money. And that's why his films are so pathetic. There's a place for making smart and exciting films AND making money (Iron Man being the perfect example.) All Michael Bay cares about is making money.

    Not everybody who works in film works on a set. There are important jobs, like the various elements of pre and post production and marketing, that take place in an office in front of a computer. So, while we work IN THE INDUSTRY, we also like to read about the industry, and discuss the industry, and state our opinion about films that are coming out. It's called multitasking, not being bored and fat and pathetic.

    by chariowalda_barbarossa

    I just dont get the haters. What's no to like about the first film? No, dont tell me, forget that question, heard enough of your whining allready. :-p

    This trailer looks f*cking awesome. You know it. I love the notion that Transformers now also come as politically correct little fuel saving cars instead of decadent American giganto trucks only. Way to go! Eat this, Chrysler! By the way, I'm not to good at telling those brands apart, is there any Transformer who transforms into a non american car? If so I guess he's a decepticon...

    Too bad though, looks like that one little red robot is going to be swallowed by that amazing gargantuan vacuum cleaner bot. I like little Robots. Wonder if those smaller autobots have Wall-E cute voices. Talking about Wall-E, I want to hug him and cuddle.

    Questions about some of the bots

    by chariowalda_barbarossa

    I'm not so deep into Transformer lore, as you might have guessed reading my above post, and maybe that's one reason I enjoyed Bay's first film so much. Anyway, things in the trailer made me curious.

    That bot at 2:01, who is he? Looking at his head I'd say he transforms into an SR-71 Blackbird. Very cool aeroplane. Though i wonder how that works out plot wise, the SR-71 is a museum piece by now. Been in hiding on earth for some time? That would explain that "itchy, wretched, rusty, my ass!"

    Who or what is "The Fallen"? The bot at 1:32 looks like http://tinyurl.com/whoisthefallen. Is he a teleporter? looks like he flash-bangs into the place.

    which robots are which.
    jesus christ.
    i read paul anderson commentary on the making of Death Race,where he mentioned that he wanted the cars to be easily recognized by the audience.
    because the action scenes were very intense,with fast change of camera point of views,he decided to give to the cars different elements (for instance one car had some body parts painted red) which would make them to distinguish more.and that worked,the audience did know what was going on during the action.
    now here in the transformers movies,i dont fucking understand which robot is which,and who fights who.michael bay who was approved these designs,apart from his stupid idea to add flames on optimus prime,has even thought about this,how on earth the people will be able to follow his action scenes,which usually are very very fast and intense?

    In the "Real Universe", Michael Bay owns and operates a gas station outside of La Plama, CA with his friend JJ Abrams. Bay was only allowed make moves after that pudgy bastard Gervais went back in time to meet Bud Abbot and ended up impregnating Richard Dreyfuss with Shia LaBoof, irrevocably altering the timeline forever. And I gotta get to the Prime Timeline, because that's the one where Bryan Singer directed X3, featuring Emma Frost as depicted by Sigourney Weaver and not that gangly teen in "X-Men Origins: A Bowl of Shit".

    You make me laugh. That was awesome. I own an Audi and I laugh at people with American cars. But being Pro-Merika is nothing new with Michael Bay. ALL of his movies have some moment of someone standing in front of an American flag or some moment of extreme patriotism. He is the epitome of American propaganda in cinema today. I'm surprised nobody's made that if you don't like Michael Bay's films then you're a communist. I'd laugh and then punch that person right in the twat as hard as I can. And I completely agree with you on how Bay (and Bruckheimer and co.) have literally lowered expectations of a film to the point of mind numbing dumbness. It's not too much to ask for smart, intelligent, exciting, fun films, but then again, if everything that came out of Hollywood was brilliant, we'd really have nothing to complain about.

    So who has the sway? Action Porn all the way!

    by cellar door

    Better to ask first before I dare say anything right? Half of you think you have no right to criticize if you haven't also made a big-budget movie that did as well or better.I can't even respond to that without wanting to put my fist through the screen; that's how fucking stupid that idea is...as in you must be a teenager tops or probably 11 or 12 years old to think that you shouldn't say anything negative unless you can do better. This isn't adding fractions on the white-board in math class jackasses! Undercooked steak at Outback? Don't say shit unless you can cook one up better! Idiots.Now,for the haters, you must admit that as much as you may hate Bay's work, it at least keeps the industry alive. Think like how cheesilyy narcissistic modern hip-hop music continue to keep the turntable and LP alive. Bay's movies, shit or not, make lots of money which means the studio won't be so hesitant to give big budget approval to movies like Transformers. You can hate the execution but if it totally flopped and lost money, then perhaps we wouldn't get a sequel to TRON or something else with potential greatness. On the other hand, studios see that idiotic movies, that are basically 2 and a half hour beer commercials, will draw in millions of dollars so they might not want to make smart or esoteric action movies without some 'guarantee' of a return on profit. Of course, love them or hate them, the Matrix trilogy was "smart" action and revived the genre but since most fail at "smart" action, the Matrix becomes the default and thus anything attempting to be smart comes off as copying. I'm hoping Avatar throws the whole action genre into a loop and we stop getting meaningless pap in the form of "Action porn" which are action movies that are so inane that you can only fast forward to the good scenes, namely the action set pieces...just like skipping the dialog and FF'in to the sex in porn movies). This isn't helped by anything Bay does making millions of dollars.Personally, I think Tranformers sucked really bad but had some excellent effects work and some great action set-pieces at the end. If I could re-watch it without having to change the channel during the worst scenes (all but the robot fighting scenes) then I'd say it was a decent action movie but because I'm fucking annoyed by it even when I'm not paying 100% attention means the suck factor is high.And by the way...that's my OPINION. Not a fact. Please try not to confuse the two. Thanks for playing!

    by d.vader

    The problem is the suits. Afterall, there are LOTS of producers trying to mimic the success of The Dark Knight. The problem is, they're looking at the wrong aspects that made it successful. Instead of seeing "Good quality director matched with good quality script and good quality ideas," they see "Its DARK! That's what the fans want! Dark characters in dark stories that look fucking dark!" That's why the next Fantastic Four is going to be super-cereal. And Dark.

    measured by box office receipts and not by the actual quality of the film. I understand were all in it for the money, that's why we work, to survive and make money. I understand what the 'bottom line' means and that it's incredibly important to studios and the careers of filmmakers and producers to bring in significant revenue from each film they release. But how many shitty films make a ton of money and then get called successful or "the number one movie in America". 'Successful' does not always translate to 'good'. And Michael Bay is the king of having successfully crappy movies. But that does not make him a great director, or a good person. As I've stated before, when you care more about money than film, then you're in it for the wrong reason.

    There are those of us out there that can appreciate a film for it's technical merits. We KNOW the difference between art and fun, and we don't feel bad because of it. Nobody has any qualms with you not liking Transformers, or any of Michael Bay's cinema. Your condescending attitude and flat-out pretentious nature comes across as quite insufferable. Yes, there is a difference between films like The Dark Knight, and films like Transformers. I understand that. Also, what makes you think that no one buys or remembers Bay's old movies? I know plenty of people who look back on The Rock quite fondly. And no, they are not idiots. Get over yourself. You have your tastes. We have our taste. Doesn't make us any different.

    Looks like a fucking blast.

    Can't wait. Screw all of these uptight, fat angry kids complaining about the onscreen treatment of their Hasbro toys.

    Looks like fun. Loved the last movie in all of its cheesy, robo-action glory.

    I like it because its bad for me

    by drewlicious

    I should hate the first movie. I really should. Its not a very well-written movie, some of the acting is spotty (Meagan Fox), all the military characters were cliche (lets talk about baseball and other stock subjects), and the climax was shot in probably the most confusing way possible. Yet for some reason I couldn't get enough of it. I think its because the concept and what was on screen appealled to the pleasures of my adult braind and those of my inner-child simultaneously. The closing shot was a guy making out with his hot girlfriend, on his hot car, while his robot commpanion stood guard. How much more ofa male adolescent fantasy can you get? Yes, I will be back for seconds and probably a third helping if they make it.

    Holy shit. If liking The Rock and Transformers makes you not very bright, I'll gladly be a retard. Anything is better than AsimovLives' beyond horrifying spelling, grammar and punctuation skills.

    power of bay compels u

    by bayhemtonyscottjosephkahnfan

    i watched the cartoon and it was idiotic. these Bay movies treat the cartoon with much more seriousness than it deserves. i agree they could have focused on the robots more but if they did ONLY TF fans would show up, the film would make $75 million...and be a FLOP (it costs over $200 million!). we need to appeal to EVERYONE to make that money back...so that means Tyrese for black people, megan fox for girls (or horny guys), humor, romance, military, etc. etc. Bay makes films that appeal to everyone (or at least try to). he was taught the Bruckheimer formula which started in Top Gun with tony scott. need that hit song? that Take My Breathe Away? Get Linkin Park. Get Aerosmith to sing dont wanna miss a thing for armageddon. etc. etc. i also wanna add that i dont like action films with too much story because when i pay my ticket to a see an action film i wanna see ACTION. when u watch porn do u enjoy the talking scenes or fast forward to the good stuff? yea thats what i thought. im the same with my action flicks. i dont care WHY they are banging, i just wanna see some bangin'. i dont care WHY the action scene is happening i just wanna see it and no one does it better than Bay.

    There's liking Michael Bay too much and there's hating Michael Bay too much.

    One is like enjoying the murder of children, the other is like enjoying having sex with children.

    I am never "bankrupted" of things to say. I just find it pretty funny that someone who is constantly posting about how high brow they are has such a laughable lack of simple grammar abilitites.

    it's not the trailer's fault

    by tech_noir

    the trailer is doing the best it can with the material it has. the teaser and the superbowl spot played to an older crowd, showing what seemed like a much darker bigger film. but this full trailer clearly was targeted to younger crowd by starting with bumblebee dancing in a garage. that isn't the right way to introduce a film that the director calls "darker and edgier" than the first film. but if there's one common thread to michael bay's films, it's that they make great trailers.

    ...writing thousands of words ranting ON AND ON about how much you hate a low-brow summer movie. why rant about things you hate? you aren't going to convince any of us "retards" to stay home. this website is so full of hate and armchair directors.

    by jryanh

    You obviously don't know me. I have passionate opinions concerning many topics. However, when it comes to a movie that's not for me, I don't waste my time babbling incessantly about how much of an abomination it is. Not to mention, I don't talk down to people who might like said movie like some sort of uppity snob. It's obvious people like you don't get out much. You spend your days sitting in your room in front of the computer, pointlessly bitching about subjects that are pretty inconsequential. Also, how do YOU know that I am American? English is extensively taught in many countries. Furthermore, what the hell is wrong with my grasp of the English language? Nothing. This website has been hijacked by you whiny, hateful pricks. Please go away.

  • I can't stand Michael Bay!! The only time I actually wanted to see a Michael Bay film was Armageddon. That was before I knew him and soon grew sick of his style. I will never pay to see another Michael Bay film. I can't believe Spielberg actively sought him out for this franchise. People would've seen this franchise no matter whom directed it, and now Hollywood will give him undue credit for it's success.
