There's a lot of robots in TRANSFORMERS: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN
Hey folks, Harry here with the TRANSFORMERS: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN. I have to say, even though I wasn't a fan of the first film - I am looking forward to this quite a bit. I like these robots' look more. I prefer the look of the environment. I'm just hoping for more CHARACTER from the Transformers than we got last time - and better action that isn't SO flash flash flash - if you know what I mean. So far this is looking good, but let's see how it all goes - the hype is just now kicking off in a big way and will only build. Here ya go...

Lots of roofs ripping off!
-
eat it fuckers!
-
morons
-
Only people who live in the U.S. visit this site. Silly me.
-
hehehe - to much fun to resist
-
who is sick and tired of seeing megaen fox? I think we need the next trashey skank to claim her fifteen minutes...please?
-
Will be another mindless, brainless , summer movie that will make a bazillion $$ for the Bay crew. Hollywood is dead.
-
I just watched the Harry Potter trailer, and I think this transformers spot was attached to the beginning. Pretty soon the whole web will be brought to a halt by recursive looping marketing.
-
Megan is a fucking fox!
-
homo.
-
FUCK MICHAEL BAY!

FUCK MICHAEL BAY!

FUCK MICHAEL BAY!
-
Fuck haters.
-
homo.Very clever,oh wait,Im not a brainwashed piece of shit who gets no pussy at all,like yourself,who has to beat off to pics of meg fox all day.Loser.
-
Ive kicked better out of bed due to boredom.It takes more to impress me than the next 15 minute maxim girl.
-
I would have killed to hear Scott McNeil's voice coming out of Waspinator.
-
first, I'm just so done with Megean Fox-- yeah she's good looking but that skank look is just too much at this point-- she looks like she's been ridden more than Amtrack ! I'm sure BAG had his fun with her, still.
Second, the giant robot rips the roof off the house you are in and the camera is at your feet scene is from Terminator Salvation. [ripoff][cough cough]
-
pics or stfu
-
At least some sites are nice enough to provide links non-US viewers can watch. Here is a version I think everyone can view...

I'm just sayin.
-
FUCK YOU McG!
-
Why the fuck aren't the Transformers TALKING? They have a great character in Starscream, who LOVES to talk, and he didn't say a goddamn word, just knocked shit over.
-
exactly? that you worship a trailer trash florida girl? One that can be found in any mall across ameriica?one that dated brian austin green? And you call me a homo when I think it's time to either get her an acting couch or condemn her to hustler?
-
chill.
-
There's something wrong with anyone who thought that was shit. Robots that scream when they are killed always disturbs me
-
I seem to remember the homo shot coming from you however.
-
LOSERS
-
The first Transformers was unwatchable. Did anyone else notice this? Am I the only one that can see past the childhood glee and recognize a shitty movie. Michael Bay makes garbage films that blow stuff up. McG at least tried in Terminator Salvation, but he has no ability to develop characters or build suspense. Both McG and Michael Bay are assholes that should be banished from Hollywood. We should blacklist them as communists.
-
sorry if I hurt your feelings.
-
Im just wait for the dvd.For everyone else good luck.
-
A Florida skank however
-
I started out pumped for this summer movie season. now, with Wolvie and T4 and Transformers and Joe looking like crap... not so much anymore.
-
is the only movie im willing to see again so far...maybe trek too...
-
First off, megan Fox is still hot and has a good 5 years still in her. after that it'll be up to her if she goes rotten or glorious - like Jennifer Connelly style.PlusYou're saying a giant robot ripping the roof off a house is a rip off of a 4th in the series movie about a humanoid robot that is programmed only to kill people? ..... dude........ there was a roof ripped off a building int he first scene of Transformers 1 .... get you head in gear damnit
-
...and i'm not one of those people who can just turn off my brain, and "enjoy" a movie "for what it is". Having said that, the first Transformers allowed me to do just that. Despite my best efforts, i was able to enjoy the movie for the stupid, mindless action jack-off that it was, and i didn't even feel guilty afterward. I typically require MUCH more from a film, but Transformers somehow hit that sweet spot for me. Here's hoping that they can somehow pull it off again. And for the record: i can watch those things transform back and forth all day, there's just something really cool about it...
-
Looking forward to the ride.
-
anyway, so I guess it fits.
-
Www.nukethefridge.com
-
Disn't pay for that crapfest, won't pay for this one. Of all the fanboy garbage, this is the one that confuses me the most. The first film was the very definition of Pointless Noise. I'll never, ever understand the morons who enjoyed that mindnumbing garbage.
-
Thanks for the link. "Play Again?" Fuck yes. That scene looks intense.
-
Poor kids these days who like horror.
-
JACKS OFF IN YOUR EYES
-
I LOVE YOU MEGAN FOX
I LOVE YOU MEGAN FOX
I LOVE YOU MEGAN FOX
I LOVE YOU MEGAN FOX -
And let us know in your posts whether or not people outside of the US will be able to view it? Its annoying when 2/3rds of the videos you post are unwatchable in Canada. Just say (US ONLY) or something like that. Or better yet find a mirror.
Thanks. -

...getting fucked-off by the increasing amount of stuff on this site that can only be viewed in the U.S.
-
He did show great restraint by only showing a medium amount of Megan Fox's cleavage and only a few explosions.
-
...ummm, Robot-y!
-
Don't lie you bitches! You know you are going to see this. Aside from "Up" it's been a disapointing summer movie season so far.
-
It is going to be crap.
-
Looks like Harry is fucking a Ghostbuster played by Ron Perlman in the ass.
-
....beaten with a rake and then kicked in the kidneys until he pisses blood. What a smug ass.
-
Another Bayformers drops.
-
That fucker's in everything.
-
Awesome. He needs to do that to Ducheton Kutcher as well. Going to see "Bruno" this year for that stunt alone!
-
bruno showed that cowardly eminem
for the homophobe he really is if he was really tolerant of gay men & women he wouldnt have stormed out
of the arena like that a real tolerant person wouldve laughed it off lets hope this is the last we see of this douchbag -
At least you can say he adapted his franchise better than Stephen Sommers. Ouch...
-
i think its terrible that having a gay friendly president like obama
or clinton we should have to put up with bigots like this asshole
who thinks hes black -
dude has range.
-
Having a guys ass in your face, an d not liking it, doesn't make you a homophobe. Personally, if some real life faggot put his ass in my face, I would punch him in the balls so hard they would fly out of his cocksucking mouth. I just wanted to clarify. Nevertheless, Eminem is a douchbag. Go Sasha!
-
"Still continues exact same policies toward homosexuals in military as George Bush and believes marriage to be defined as between a man and a woman" then, yes, Obama is super "gay friendly."
-
Maybe it's just the size of the embed, but the robots just don't seem to mesh with the enviroment in this clip as well as in the last one. Granted, this might be because the camera was actually steady in this shot, so you could see them in much better detail than the obscuro-cam of the first one.
-
Not really looking forward to Transformers 2.
-
do u really think obama hates gay people? cause i belive in this man
he needs time do what he wants to do -
That movie sucked. It was 2 hours of clips you could see on TV for free!
-
brilliant, more lazy journalism on show by simply embedding region-locked clips that the majority of the world can't see.
-
We are all under a soft tyranny right now. Universal health care and socialism is not what America is supposed to be. I believe in Obama too. I believe he is spending way too much money America doesn't have. I also believe this is the end to our country as we knew it. Wake up Jared. Get your news and information from more than just CNN or MSNBC. Read...learn...question, and make an informed decision.
-
I want more LaBeouf and less Tyrese. I wasn't as interested in all the Army BS.
-
Transformers 2 should be great!!
;) -
where do u get ur information from fixed noise aka fox news or that pill popping asshole rush limbaugh
or maybe that blond cunt ann coulter? -
I don't affiliate myself with any party. Obama didn't start this crap. Either did Bush. It's been going on for a very, very long time. My point is this. It don't matter who is in office. Republican or Democrat. It's all the same. Corruption and soft tyranny. If you can't see that...then try and get past this Democrat/Republican Bullshit. That is why you are blinded. They want to distract you with choosing "sides". Do you really believe bailing out private companies and spending money we don't have is good for the country? I know it's not "PC" but I'm sick of paying my hard earned tax dollars for illegal aliens health care and bailing out companies that should be allowed to fail...
-
Should we bail out Michael Bay and the studio too? What's the difference?
-
I enjoyed Transformers, and dammit, I'm going to see the new one. It looks fun. You guys can waste time with shit like Drag Me to Another Weak Ass Horror Movie.
-
"I'm just hoping for more CHARACTER from the Transformers than we got last time - " HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA
Maybe the Bayformers will have 2 lines of dialogue instead of none. I can't wait for" Michael Gay presents: a 2 and half hour music video commercial featuring Shia LeDickhead special guest appearance from Ugly Giant Robots! A Michael eBay film directed by Mikey (thehack) eBay.
-
and universal health care is not socialized medicine its what every other country has for health care do u know cuba has a better health care system than we do? were america for christ sake that obama what a commie for trying to put america on equal footing with the rest of the world
-
so there is no chance in hell of there being a good story, dialogue, interesting characters, or consistent plot.
-
Who the fuck cares about ShakyCam-Bayformers?
A V A T A R - FUCKING YOUR EYEBALLS IN 2009nothing else matters -
...you have revealed your complete ignorance. looks like michael moore actually convinced people that cuba has a better health care system. i am struggling right now to obtain insurance because of a pre-existing condition, but even i don't want universal health care. it is going to drastically lower the quality of our care, just you watch... but why the fuck are we talking about this on a transformers talkback?
-
but you still went and saw it.
You dumb fucks paid for the sequel to be made while Steven Spielberg and Michael Bay are just having a great time, laughing their asses off at your expense.
-
i think its going to kick ass
better then the first and know that megan has come out of the closet as bi maybe shell share a liplock with a girl heres hoping
i cant wait to c what devastator and the fallen look like -
Fool me twice, well fuck that. I doubt I'll ever watch this film. Michael Bay has never impressed me, ever, and Trannies 1 was crap.
-
There's a lot of FUCKING SHIT LOOKING PILES OF ANIMATED SCRAP METAL in TRANSFORMERS: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN
-
GIANT PIG!!!
-
Actually I watched it on a dodgy dvd that I got from a bloke down the pub, and was I fucking glad that Bay didn't get any of my fucking money. Not that I condone piracy, I just don't believe in paying for anything that isn't up to quality. oh, and on the subject of Megan Fox, if you virgin nerds leave your house once in a while and go to any major city on a hot sunny day, you'll see that the world is FULL of girls hotter than that tramp.

There's a lot of robots in TRANSFORMERS: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN
by cuervojones
It´s called "audience".
-
And it's finding its way to our cineplexes, at frightening speed.
-
is SO SO SO pointless. we get the vast mejority of releases at the same time, or within a week, so what's the problem with releasing trailers internationally
-
We won't be able to see them because it'll be filmed in close-up-jerko-vision like the last one. Watched it 4 times now and still can't make out jack whats happening on screen.
-
i can understand people who loved the first film really looking forward to this. but surely to anyone who didn't like the first one, this is going to be more of the same - just more extreme. think of it as bad boys 2 to bad boys 1 - even less character, an even stupider story, even more explosions, a bit nastier...
-
get a sense of humor douchebreath
-
...to make a good action setpiece that doesn't rely on bangs and crashes to be exciting. Something like, for example, Tom Cruise going in to that upside down chamber in the first MIssion Impossible. Or, ok maybe that's a bit hard for Mike, how about something where there are NO EXPLOSIONS of GUNSHOTS. Like, I dunno, the T-Rex attack in the first Jurassic Park. Why was there nothing of THAT intensity and wit in TRANSPORMERS?
-
So you mean it sucks but you watched it 4 times anyway...
Me, I like it. -
and ya miss all the fun. sniff
-
How many Fiats are gonna be Autobots in this film? Also, are Autobots using Biodiesel or battery power?
-
the link isn't working for me either... I'm in the states.
-
Am I the only one who see's a substantial drop in quality of the CGI??
-
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DycXey2HSXw
-
That's a good scene---you can A: tell the bots apart, B: See what they're doing and C: watch stuff go BOOM. Works for me.
-
it's cause i'm a Brit isn't it? You limey hating racialists are denying me one of my basic human rights! Godammit, i wanna see robots and miss fox!
-
"For copyright reasons this video cannot be shown outside the U.S." Fucking MTV. Last time I checked it was the WORLD-WIDE web. Not the Trans-American Web. Bollocks. Anyway, I'll probably see Transformers 2. Lots of pretty 'splosions and I don't hate Shia LaBeouf, even though that seems to be de rigeur 'round here. And also, no - I can not get tired of looking at Megan Fox. Dirty, dirty minx.
-
Damn You Michael Bay
-
And like the wind, it is gone.
-
They can stick all their "Copyright Restrictions" up their fucking arses!!! >:-(
I'm getting so fed up with all these limited 'US-only release' clips - do these muppets want to alienate foreign audiences or something!??!
Foolish. -
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nsh5nDXrwYA
until viacom decides to hunt down and delete more things they just showed on TV for free. -
If you want clips, then do something about him.
-
eliminate the space between v = before pasting...I think it was caused by the word wrap in message box but I'll try again:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nsh5nDXrwYA -
ahhh...that ought to work
-
NOT giving this film my money!
they got me with the first one - fool me once, yada yada yada... -
No wonder people are turning off their TV's...copyright outside of the US my ass...its the FUCKIGN INTERNET....bah ¬_¬
-
Let's go bowling. I've thrown my hands up in the air and I'm willing to see anything now after watching that clip of G.I. Joe.
-
I'll let you know what it's like with a mini-review once I've seen it.
-
Please, get over you fanboy-ness. I realise where I'm posting this (i'm preaching to a community filled with them)but I'm just saying, have an open mind. Please.
Go into the cinema hoping for a good film and enjoying what you get, no wanting to hate it outright. -
Ach, this Scotsman cannae be bothered watching it anyway. Just got back from the press show of Terminator Salvation *YAWN* And why the hell doesn't Skynet just put a bullet through Kyle Reece's head the second it sees him? Dumbness. -
I had that attitude for the first film. I wanted so much to like that film as I've wanted this movie since 1984. However, the trailers and clips suggest to me that nothing has changed and some of the biggest problems with that film still remain.
-
...software engineers, regarding faulty code and resultant bad software, that I think also applies to the Transformers movies: Garbage in, garbage out.
-
and the second looks even better now they actually have a significant budget for it. Looks fantastic!
-
and say "Fuck this movie" like you did for Terminator 4? Well that's good.
-
I am a hater, just do you know - but surely your message to us should be: 'Shuddup already and just don't go and see the film, no one is forcing you to!'
-
It just boggles my mind how beautiful she is.
-
You little piss ants make me laugh. If Bale were here, he'd laugh too. "who is sick and tired of seeing megaen fox?" Just you buddy. But please, add some more sick and tired friends to your club. It's the same feeling of incredulity I get when people get mad at gays. IT'S JUST MORE HOT WOMEN FOR THE REST OF US. Carry on!

People who use "hater" should be thrown in the fucking ocean
by industrykiller!
For 800th god damn fucking time, that term ONLY APPLIES IF YOU CANNOT BACK UP YOUR ARGUMENT> We've stated explicitly, over and over and over and over again EXACTLY, in fucking excruciating detail, why this film doesn't work and why Bay's directing is awful. Get it through your god damn thick skulls. And if you are going to post the same brainless argument about the cartoon you better explain how this is any better than that.
-
@TinSpider: What didn't you like about it? I'm hoping for more Transformers this time around but I thought the first one was enjoyable.
@Mr Gorilla: haha. Couldn't have put it better myself. -
that there are people w/such empty lives that they spend this much time devoted to a talkback about a sequel to a movie they hated so much. When you actually like a movie you must type til your fingers bleed.
-
It does? It's an official word now?
I understand your point but think that the 'haters'(clear reasons or not) simply have a different set of expectations for the (or any) film. A film is made for the nth percentile of the audience and the 'haters' usually don't fall into that (as we've found time and time again).
Bay is not an awful director. He's got more grasp than most. He's just not as good as some of the all time greats. He's a fantastic shallow action film director and he knows it, hence why he keeps only making those type of films. -
only to see that the video is no longer there? Fuck you very much MTV.
-
Well said. Spooky - pretty much what the majority of us 'haters' didn't like. The designs, the OTT goofyness, Bay's style and I can't be bothered listing the rest.. it's too depressing. Do a search, I'm sure you'll find me pissing and moaning about it somewhere on here. I've done it enough.
-
Was there some SUSPENSE being hinted at?! Is Michael Bay actually beginning to grow as a flick-maker?! Holy cow, I just might faint.
-
theres nothing unique about her looks, so it must be just a trend to like her.
-
Or not? that's all i got folks
-
I love Green Day.
-
I am not excited for this one.... there is nothing really appealing about it
-
cant wait! Fuck you Harry ur a hack!
-
there was actually some suspense there. The effects seem better, and that was a pretty cool shot going around the building and through that hole. But this is Bay we are talking about so It will probably be like all his movies I guess...

What Barometer are you haters using to measure Robot films?
by ganymede3010
Until TF's, no one stepped up to the challenge and made a Robot Film. So when you haters say, it's suppose to this, or it's suppose to be that, what in the hell are basing your judgements upon?
-
How long does it take to type a dissenting opinion on Transformers? A few seconds? That's time well spent. "Bayformers is text book example of wasted potential." See that only took 3 seconds to type. Hating on the this shit isn't as time consuming as the Bay Pride Parade claim.
-
You know its true. Since when is it cool to have no standards for entertainment.
-
Boo!
-
looked like a robot tranformer on the mtv awards last night...skank bitch.Shee is grooooooooooooss as fuck.I pray her 15 minutes end quickly..
-
Jun 01, 2009 9:42:52 AM CDT
Industrykiller you're a hater, infact, you're an extremist hater
by ganymede3010
The only constituency that hate Michael Bay is a minute fraction compared to the people who enjoy his films. TF's has a A- rating on Yahoo Movies. You have no material evidence to support your subjective observations and conclusions. No one agrees with you, besides the Bayhaters that saturate a few internet forums.
-
The top of Megan Fox's head. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink.
-
who doesn't see the appeal of Megan Fox is a liar. If Megan fox actually looked somewhere in the vicinity of your direction you would mess yourself.
-
to base one's criticism. But piss poor story telling is piss poor story telling. You don't need to see Pirates of the Caribbean to know that Cutthroat Island sucks.
-
you want to see her jizzed on not to see her attempt acting for two hours.
-
Yeah she's hot, but i think it's all the attention is statrting to go to her head. I liked or actually didn't give a lot of thought about her until i seen her, but then there she was taking shots at Scarlett Johanssen(whom I love)which was pretty petty on her part. fuck Meagan Fox. She can't act worth shit.
-
It deserves a F. Who gives a fuck about the grading at yahoo if it gives an above average score to the Phantom Menace?

Really, Plastic Shark? You can't tell what happened in the clip?
by d.vader
Why? Are you partially blind? I don't mean to insult you, but when you throw out a criticism from the first one- "Can't tell what's happening in the action,"- which arguably doesn't apply here (there's no hyper-speed editing in this clip), it makes you look, well, like you're already biased against the flick , couldn't find anything really wrong with this short clip, but you wanted to insult it anyway so you just pulled something out of your ass. I mean, really? You couldn't tell that Shia and Fox were hiding out in a building while Decepticons were searching for them? You couldn't tell Starscream ripped open the roof and the pair tried to escape while what looks to be Constructicons attacked them? Honestly, how can you not see that? This scene is in no way similar to the street battle in the first one. This clip was very straight-forward.
-
Who needs real people? Bring on the CGI bullshit lackluster lame ass storytelling that Americans love spending their hard earned money on. Fuck, I hate Transformers.
-
the world will need haters.
-
what makes that clip any good? The suspense is laughable if not outright dull.
-
I had to sit through some shitty-awful-shitty commercial assery only to get a "video no longer available" message
... Thanks Mtv! -
POWW POW!
-
The one saying "upgrade"
oh boy... -
what happened?
-
I seem to remember saying to myself, well, Episode 2 can't be worse. If Lucas killed-off Maul, can't wait to see what's next. Oh hey, Val Kilmer's gonna play Batman so it has to be good. "I feaked as a kid when I saw the Millennium Falcon", therefore Alien 4 can't be bad. Look-it, Bumblebee was dancing to the Pointer Sisters in one trailer, come on. Don't get fooled again! But hey, if you liked the fisrt one, you will most likely like the second, but if you didn't like the first one . . . What magic miracle do you really think is going to happen here?
-
YOU BROKE MY HEART!!!
-
i see things are running apace around here. back to the sunlight. carry on.
-
call Megan Fox a skank. Why is this behavior allowed on these talkbacks? What kind of website is this? Where closet homos can voice their misogynistic agenda? Jesus Christ, it's just a movie about toys ffs, get a grip, idiots
-
Get it together AICN
-
I still would.
-
Grow up Sylar. I think she's a very attractive girl, but more often than not, lately, her photo shoots make her look like a porn star. And not the good kind.
-
fuck bayformers...fuck megan fox...first blah blah fucking blah....shuddup ffs same fuckin arguments in every tf talkback
-
What I want to know is: why is Megan Fox such an odd colour? She has the sort of tan you might see on a builder/farmer(presumably fake). Tone it down a few shades girl - you'd look a lot better.
-
liking the look of the robots more than T1. They have distinction in their designs.
And the action set pieces look more interesting.
The first film I watched once and that was enough. Maybe this one will be different? I'll see. -
...and yes, the "haterz" will blow their brains out in collective nerd rage. But who really cares when...THE POWER OF BAY COMPELS YOU!THE POWER OF BAY COMPELS YOU!THE POWER OF BAY COMPELS YOU!
-
I'd get a second rate "Reader" script and convince Megan Fox to play the lead appearing mostly naked throughout the film telling her that if she wants to win an Oscar she has to do nudity using Kate Winslet, Halle Berry, Charlize Theron, Gwyneth Paltrow and Nicole Kidman as examples. Can anyone tell me why noone in Hollywood has thought of this yet? Of course, she'd never even be nominated for an Oscar, but she's dumb she'd believe it.

fuck mtv,fuck usa only and fuck you youfat sack of ginger shit
by daddyfatnads
-
In ten years she'll be used up, but for now, she is, hands down, the HOTTEST chick on the planet.
-
... I'm going to watch things blow up, who's bothered if there's plot? It's summer.
-
I hated the first one but holy crap. This has robots knocking the shit out of each other and it looks amazing. The same thing some folks on this site blow a load over if it's in the right context. Oh but this is related to Michael Bay. One-liners, shallow character development, big explosions, etc. None of this is passable in respectable cinema. Yes, his films are glorified, hyperbudgeted trash with pithy dialog but goddamn this movie looks exciting.
-
That's sad. Well, it makes me sad. The only thing I've seen this summer that's even close to worth a damn is Star Trek, and only because the entertainment value (Think of it as a number) was barely (BARELY!) larger than the stupidity factor. I don't expect this to change as the summer goes on.
-
This preview looks cool. I like the giant robots stuff. Come on! It looks fun. You emo kids.
-
That is, to be written, produced, and directed to certain intellectual standards. I know I'm preaching to the wrong crowd in the wrong forum, but when I finally saw TF (via my friend's netflix), I was aghast. Really. I'm sorry, folks, but you SHOULDN'T like that movie. Every character is comic relief? I can't remember any glaring plot holes, but the plot was so thin that I don't know that there could be plot holes. Characters that weren't really characters, just exposition machines. 90% of the humor was aimed at the ten-twelve crowds, but then you've got golden shower & masturbation jokes thrown in with absolutely no subtlety. And, as everyone says, incomprehensible action. I tried to watch it a couple of times when I was getting free HBO, and I still couldn't make out exactly what was happening and which bots were involved. Now look, I've been going to the theater since I was five, twenty-four years ago. I'm relatively normal, I dress like your grandfather and I work in a bookstore. And I'm begging you, please don't pay money for this. It will only lead to, indirectly or directly, whatever, a shitty GB3. And I don't want GB3, or anything coming out of Hollywood, really, to be shitty. But by contributing to brain-dead cinema you are ensuring that that is exactly what we'll get. Ok, I think I'll take a smoke break, read some comics and get back to work. Damn You Jeph Loeb!
-
I like Giant Robots. This movie will have many many of them. They get to turn into trucks, cars, and planes. They shoot at each other. They're based on 25 year old Hasbro War toy/toons. And it's all directed by the Armageddon guy. You stop and you think about this. This could be much, MUCH worse. It could have been directed by Harold's pal Ratner or Del Toro or Cokey. But it ain't. It's by Mikey Bay. As Noted_Sage Ricky_Henderson saithe 2 years ago here-and I Quothe-Michael Bay was BORN to make movies of Giant Robots Hitting Each Other. No fucking kidding. Danged right. And he's also the perfect guy to do Big Robots Hitting Each Once Again. You know it's True.
-
AND ITS GREAT!
-
FUCK OFF, MORONS.
-
You just helped me prove my point. Forgive my rudeness.
-
I wouldn't throw her out of bed. I might even cuddle for a little bit afterward, but she totally has the skanky "sex-for-drugs" look. Is she the "hottest woman on the planet"? Not until she gets implants. She's built like a metal signpost - fact is, she needs some cleavage if she wants a title like that!
-
I agree with you. And if folks liked Transformers, fine, but really, those action sequences might have been story-boarded well, but, I wouldn't know as the edits were just terrible. Look at it like this, lots of people like the original Highlander, but damn that last fight scene is so crappily edited. I stopped counting after 171 cuts. Spielberg is on record saying how he hates the MTV-edits of movies and I was very surprised to see he picked Bay, who, well, edits that way. To me it's like people saying Coldplay, because they use a dulcimer once, is as creative as Peter Gabriel. I like Coldplay, but they ain't no Peter Gabriel as far as creativity goes. But we all like what we like.
Okay, no more talking out of my ass! -
I didn't even have to say "Search your feelings", etc. Yes, I win the internet! I have effected real change in the world! I am the Goddamn Blue Beetle! I could disassemble a Transformer with my bare fucking hands! YES!
-
Didn't see your post there. Yeah, I think Hollywood backed a dump truck full of money to his back door so he'd back Bay. I can't see any other reason why he'd change his stance.
-
Lol - or maybe it was the first bet he lost. The second of course resulting in having to direct Crystal Skull. Oh, I said it!
-
I think there were more than fifteen year olds watching it.
-
I concede that point, no doubt. Maybe he was meaning more of the idea that we all want to be able to LOVE a movie without having to watch it with a 15-year-old mentality. Meaning, Hollywood makes us lower our standards anymore. This doesn't mean people are stupid, but how many times have you heard folks talk about "turning their brain off for two hours". I didn't have to do that with Raiders or Empire or JAWS. Not to mention the majority of people don't get into watching movies like some of us and so they honestly don't care as long as it kills an afternoon. I can't say they are wrong in their opinion, but man, the summer used to have good meals of movies, now it's mostly sugary-snacks. In my humble opinion! But hey Advent Children on Blu tomorrow! Again, I say, bring it!
-
That's my point. I shouldn't have to turn my brain off. Why would anyone want to? That's where my pleasure centers and my ability to suspend disbelief reside. How can I enjoy anything with my brain turned off? Plus, the idea that Hollywood WANTS me to turn my brain off is pretty damn insulting and insidious.
-
If you can imagine a SERIOUS movie about alien robots who can transform into Earth machinery beating the crap out of each other, then all my respects to you.
-
I didn't say the movie had to be serious. Lol - but damn, you got me thinking. (How do you keep A Clockwork Irony busy?)
-
Even if one didn't like Jackson's King Kong (which I loved) imagine Optimus and Megatron in that "T-Rex" fight. That was an awesome fight! Well-exectued. If T-formers could just give me that kind of a fight. Not give me a seizure from all the edits.
-
The TV series was fun as hell, too, but it was just robot fights for a half hour. I loved seeing the Transformers in real life settings in Part One.
-
fnord fnord fnord, fnord fnord fnord. That's what it feels like around here.
-
I think for me, as it was cool seeing them on the big screen, was the what COULD have been factor. I mean, am I wrong, were the fight scenes the best they could have been? Even when Optimus pulled out that sword, (if I remember) in the highway fight scene, that was over so quick. Needed some foreplay. I mean, the clips in the trailers were the same as the movie itself. Just way too quick for me. But I don't have an issue with people liking what they like, I just like to be honest. I mean, I will admit the S.W. prequels were technically awesome. Just that damn script. Lucas is a genius except for characterizations, which a good script needs. this is why Empire was so damn good becase Lucas did't write the script. And it sure is fun to smack-talk anyway! Drinks all round! (tavern music begins)
-
Lol. Never let 'em see you sweat!
-
Vigilance! I WILL turn this goddamn ship around!
-
SW was never a tightly written space movie. It was a visual movie with cool shit going on. The Luke/Vader/Emperor stuff felt almost out of place in Jedi. And the EU novels just prove that you can only milk that idea for so long.
-
I write a reasonable, (somewhat) eloquent post about the state of Hollywood and what it means to us, and it goes over almost everyone's head. That smacks of willful ignorance to me. And I cannot tell you how much that scares and angers me. Yes, I care. I guess that makes me a gay douchebag, but there it is. I want Hollywood to survive long enough for me to get there and turn it around. I could tell all kinds of stories about how I was a kid and movies, even big Hollywood stuff, were intelligent, entertaining and engrossing, but I won't. Because it won't make a bit of difference. Enjoy your slick, soulless cash-grabs, kiddos.
-
Let's face it, Star Wars (movies) peaked with Empire. Genndy Tartakovsky could have written better prequel scripts, then it would have been really cool shit going on in a sea of WTF everyone's related, why clone sith when we can clone Bob from Accounting B.S.? think if Kasdan had written Sith, think of the chills at the dialogue between Obi-Wan and Anakin. Every thing a jedi said wouldn't have been a fucking fortune-cookie. Lol! Oh my!
-
I don't need to see Mace take on 100 fucking robots. i saw Jar Jar do that in the actual movie.
-
Get over yourself dude. You're taking this shit way too seriously. It's just entertainment and even though most movies suck ass these days there are still some gems.
-
it's been removed. What the FUCK?! EVERY SINGLE FUCKING TIME! Come on Ain't it Cool News. Stop doing this to old fashioned Joe Cool.
-
Won't it? I mean, there is some chance isn't there?You see a guy like me (FREAK) you..see.. a.guy.. like.. Look, Listen, (CHIKCHIK) I know why you choose to have your group therapy sessions in broad day light. I know why your afraid to go out at night... The BATMAN!!!
-
were meant to have camp to them. Live action Star Wars should not be the same. I mean, Samurai Jack has a goofy charm to it and he meant every bit of it. There's a difference. Again, not that anyone has to like/dislike anything, but his over-the-top element is his style and, for my money, works for two-minute cartoons.
-
You think you can come into this talkback and just reference the Joker? (And you say, while dangling grenades in your jacket . . .)
-
yeah...
-
Fuck'n Aye!

This is probably the 90th video that you guys have linked from the bullshit MTV site that only Americans can watch. This is complete crap and I don't think that this should be even close to being aloud. Fuck MTV.
-
Lives up to all the ideals and inspirations that Star Wars represents.
-
What makes you think TITBAG's a Brit?
He's on another thread using words like "Asshole" & "Pacifier", which we don't use. Maybe we'd use ass in a jokey way, like bad ass etc, but we would never use pacifier.
He/she/it is most likely one of your own, I'm afraid. -
Why am I reminded of The Chappele Show skit, "The Racial Draft"?
-
because the one thing we can all agree on is that nobody wants him....
-
...that there is actually some ACTION in this ACTION movie. The first one was virtually devoid of it. I'm mystified when I hear people describe that movie as having "non-stop action". From what I remember, the action stopped about 10 minutes in, and didn't resume until the last 10 minutes. In between was just two and a half hours of embarassingly bad jokes.
-
1. Very few human characters other than Sam and Mikaela.
2. Grimlock (transforms into a tank) arguing with Optimus Prime and branding the Autobots a bunch of wimps. None of that cartoon pet dino crap, lets have the hard bastard of the tech specs and UK comics. Movie TF lacks an anti-hero, Grimlock fits the bill.
3. The Autobots are way too squeaky clean in Bay's TF, lets have the arseholes like Sunstreaker, Slag, and Blades.
4. Swindle. The Decepticon war profiteer, he does dirty deals with humans. Let's have Runamuck and Runabout, too.
5. Shockwave (he was always a much better Decepticon leader than Megatron, and a much more sinister villain).
6. Mirage. A fantastic character.
7. A sequence showing Primus and Unicron. -
Had that scene been in the comics, you would have heard Long Haul moaning about the boring task, and Starscream would have spoken when he found Sam and Mikaela.
The movies should aspire to be like the comics, not the lame cartoon show. -
after his death, will slowly roast in Blockbuster Hell until his decrepit body of work is purged from the history of film and his piles of money will be converted to eternally flaming piles on his ass. Just giving everyone a heads-up.

Judge for yourself if Revenge of the Fallen is one of the best films this summer: Jetfire WAS a Decepticon that shifted allegiance to the Autobots. He was one of the original Seekers of the Allspark that reached earth thousands of years ago. When his “batteries ran out,” it must be that he is automatically programmed to retain the ability to copy any machine from a cart to whatever technology that existed throughout history while he lay dormant (not sure if this would be explained in the movie, which could be a source of a plot hole). The blonde that Sam meets in college is a Decepticon disguised as a girl. "Alice" is her name, since it was a copy of a human-like Honda robot advertisement. This blonde seduces Sam, and as she inserts a probe (its “tongue” ) into his mouth to "hack" his brain, Mikaela enters his room and sees the girl on top of her boyfriend, and that pisses her off. Optimus Prime goes into stasis after being stabbed by Megatron (Optimus goes mano-o-mano with both Starscream and Megatron in that forest in the trailer. Optimus is not really dead, but it would take like hundreds or thousands of years for his body to repair itself). Sam ACTUALLY DIES, and while he is being revived, he sees a “heaven” vision of the original Primes and direct ancestors of Optimus, who were murdered by the Fallen, informing the teen that they have chosen him to own the Matrix of Leadership (It is the dagger-like thingy that Sam picks from the ground in the trailer; this was produced by the AllSpark thousands of years ago as a key to a machine atop the Pyramid of Giza that can destroy a star -our sun in this case- and transform it into Energon, a secondary energy source just in case the AllSpark gets destroyed). He hears Mikaela tell him “I love you.” And when he finally wakes up, his first words are “I love you.” It sounds cheesy but it isn’t. A minor plot involves the fact that they haven’t said “I love you” to each other and each were challenging the other as to who should say it first, which complicates matters since Mikaela witnessed first-hand Sam’s propensity to be disloyal to him when he is far away from her. Sam uses the Matrix of Leadership crystal to revive Optimus' Spark. Before dying, Jetfire requests that his wings be given to Optimus Prime so that the latter could get to the Giza Pyramid fast, to stop the Fallen from activating the machine that could destroy the sun. Simmons has a major role in the film and becomes a hero of sorts. After being fired from Sector 7, he spends his time in his mother's deli, and he keeps a secret attic above his mom's restaurant, blogging with the name "Robo Warrior" who happens to be discovered by Sam's geek dorm mate. Simmons is responsible for helping out a U.S. Carrier with coordinates to destroy Devastator by sneaking under the biggest Decepticon ever. And Mikaela gives Simmons a kiss- a flying kiss that is, for helping her and Sam. I'm not sure how they would explain why Arcee is a girl, or the concept of trans-dimensional travel. The other Decepticon that changes allegiances is Wheels, that small Decepticon who ends up enamored by Mikaela. Like he hugs her and burrows his head into her cleavage, but she doesn't mind since she perceives the robot more like a pet. At the end of the movie, once Optimus defeats the Fallen, Megatron and Starscream escape through a portal, a continuum a.k.a. trans-dimensional travel, and enter another dimension where the ship called the Nemesis is located. Megatron summoned the Fallen from this place. His last words are "Arise!" as he wakes up the other robots in sarcophagi in this ship. Megatron wanted to be a Prime, which is why he promised to work for his Master, the Fallen. Optimus, however, tells Megatron that he was deceived by the Fallen, since Primes are born--not made. The Fallen is a Prime that murdered Optimus’ ancestors, which is why Optimus is an orphan and the last of the Primes.

EXACTLY! Starscream would have been taunting the fuck out of those puny 'carbon based units'
