It bit early but lets have Unicron as the main villain.

Bump. Since their is a 3rd movie now in works, lets post ideas in here for now.

I hope see Galvatron, Cyclonus, Scourge, and Grimlock for the 3rd movie.

Ultra Magnus and Shockwave. If Unicron shows up, you just know Bay's gonna make him explode. Maybe Nemesis Prime too?

After watching all the behind the scenes stuff from ROTF's DVD, the amount of time they had to work was a big factor for all the shortcomings of that movie besides the twins,  hopefully with this extra time Bay has, he can really hone in on the story, include fewer bots, and make this one more personable. We still saw little of Jolt, Sideswipe, Ratchet and Ironhide.

Ironhide was the one I really missed in ROTF. He was awesome in the first one, but nothing in the second.

I personaly like Bays style and what he has done with the Transformers films.

I think hes made the movies way better than they deserve to be, because lets face it the transformers cartoon is ultra cheesy and extremely corny. The movies are a million times more badass.

Title: Re: Transformers 3?!
Post by: DoomRulz on Oct 25, 2009, 04:25:14 PM
Then you've never seen the cartoon because if you had, you wouldn't be saying that. Bay made a good first film, but the sequel was a joke.

Seriously, humping dogs? Humping Wheelie? Devastator turned into a gorilla? Devastator with testicles? Robots that can go to the bottom of the Atlantic without taking damage? A love argument in a library while a killer robot is chasing you? Turning Optimus Prime into the Punisher?

I could go on.

Post by: Yautja117 on Oct 25, 2009, 05:03:54 PM
G1 has plenty plenty of plot holes. Here's an example: In the episode "A Prime Problem" Megs makes a Prime clone. They scan the two, so we get a full X-ray of Prime. Then, in the 1986 movie, the matrix, which has never been seen or heard of before, appears inside him. G1 and Animated are the best though. Animated Megs would destroy any other.

Post by: Puks on Oct 25, 2009, 05:06:15 PM
The first one was ok, albeit very cheesy and immature, but ok. The sequel was horrible, however. I regret ever watching it, Bay is just childish, his movies are for teens, not for hard-core sci-fi fans like me.

Giant mechs from space acting like children. Awful.

That's hardly a logical complaint. With the physics they've set up in this movie, it just wouldn't look right had he been designed any different.

QuoteRobots that can go to the bottom of the Atlantic without taking damage?

This one is a bit iffy, but it's hardly a complaint that MAKES THE MOVIE BAD. 

QuoteTurning Optimus Prime into the Punisher?

You're one of those who thought Optimus was too brutal? I bet you were one of the people who said he was handled like a bitch in the first movie.

If you're talking about him putting a bullet in the brain of Demolishor at the beginning of the movie, what was he going to do? Take him to Decepticon prison on Earth?

I could go on.

I have seen the cartoon and the cartoon series in [MY OPINION] was corny as hell. They were fun when I was a kid but the movies I thought was insanely better. It had an impressive, strong military tone which I liked a lot and having some of the most intense action scenes I've ever seen.

Whats wrong with the humping wheelie and dog? lol that was mad funny, who wouldn't laugh at that? The fact your taking it so seriously makes it even more funny.

The robot with the giant balls looked insane first of all, when I saw him transform my jaw just dropped completely. I mean, that robot alone CGI wise I think made a computer crash in the editing room.

Who cares if there was one shot where you see his giant balls lol, again where is your sense of humor?

The library scene was funny too, the part where he starts talking about how the female terminator felt diesel and how he wasn't going to talk to her for 10 seconds and started counting down with his fingers was mad funny because of the fact there are giant evil robots coming to get them.

Again where is your sense of humor?

Transformers was never a dark, rated R, thought provoking sci-fi series. It was always aimed at the children. I personally see a dark side to both Transformers films, I mean the battle scenes are no joke and how the military was portrayed wasn't a joke either. The overall look and cinematography make both Transformers look like dark serious films, I love the look of both films personally.

As for Optimius looking like the Punisher....ummmm

where did you get that from? I never got that impression at all, in fact when I saw him transformer with all the upgrades the first thought that came to mind was "holy dear god you look great!" ;D

Just my opinion, I understand where your coming from, so please don't bite my head off.

It doesn't make any sense. It was said in the first movie the Laurentian Abyss' sheer depth would crush and entomb the bodies of what was dumped there, so how the hell did they go down and up with no problems?

Rubbish. The original Devastator was a giant, bipedal Decepticon. How would this:

No, I hardly think he was too brutal, but he seemed a tad out of character. In the cartoon, he wasn't above using brute force if he needed to but he was pointing guns at his opponents point blank range and asking "ANY LAST WORDS!?!!" I half-expected him to say "See you in hell".

I can't see your pic, but no, I don't think it would have. Look at how big the body parts of Devestator turned out once transformed, never would have worked.

Michael Bay Planning Less Action in "Transformers 3"

http://www.worstpreviews.com/headline.php?id=15660&count=0

Could it be? Could Bay finally have come to his senses?

"It can't get bigger, we have to figure out to go sideways and I'm wondering where to start. What I'm doing is having Hasbro send me tons of lore and stuff like that, things that we can draw from, and I just have to let it simmer. Definitely more has to be made of Bumblebee in the third one, that's a relationship you want to explore more. And I think we're definitely going to get more into the robot characters.

This movie got very big, very grand, we've covered a lot of ground. The third one doesn't have to be as big, we could go darker. It definitely has to be more emotional, it not going to be just about action, action, action. And that's where I think T3 might potentially go, where things are more undercover and not as exposed."
Title: Re: Transformers 3?!

I'm sick of Bumblebee, let's see more of the other Autobots, namely the ones featured in the first since we never saw them in the 2nd, along with other familiars (Wheeljack, Mirage, Cliffjumper, and Hound come to mind).

He wasn't in the animated movie. It did a perfect job of balancing between the regular guys and Unicron.

Besides, a planet-eating robot in a live-action movie would look sweet.
Title: Re: Transformers 3?!

Which is why A) I don't trust Bay handling the character and B) Unicron would take away from the 3rd film like I said. The animated film is a different story because there were hardly, in fact close to zero, humans in that movie. The live films always have Mikala and Sam at the centre of the film. How are they going to play into a Unicron storyline?

Not big on Unicron showing up. With the Matrix gone, what plaot device can stop him now? I'd prefer Megatron and the others show up with a huge Decepticon armada. They tear the world a new one, then a giant group of bots shows up. In the end, it should just be the bots and cons fighting, no human military. Maybe Starscream and co. take out a bunch of military bases around the world? Skywarp, Thundercracker ect.

Unicron is a good reason for Bay to make a new record on how many stuff gets destroyed in one movie. Maybe he will beat 2012 in terms of destructive dapacity if he adds Unicron. If they add Unicron then add Primus also in it.

I like the 80's idea theme to it, It gives us G1 fans something good for once. It looks like Unicron does not appear in the movie which is good since they will likely screw him up.

Looking at the trailer for the video-game, Transformers:War On Cybertron, we get a look at the Bayverse version of Omega Supreme at the end. Hopefully, he's a canadate for TF3. Especially the design shown. Here's the trailer for those of you curios to what the Autobot Guardian looks like. http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=video&show_id=211771 (http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=video&show_id=211771)

Post by: The Chibi Kiriyama on Dec 14, 2009, 06:11:30 AM
The action beats feel awkward, the dialogue needs polishing and trimming, the characters are either out-of-character, forced in, or absent, and the time travel makes less sense than anything in Transformers 2. It's "Back to the Future meets Transformers: The Movie" by way of a few Bay characters. I'll admit, the premise leads to some nice G1 and Beast Wars references. But this needs a writer who can get to the point, trim the more absurd moments, and fill in the monotony of Sam and Mikaela's tomfoolery with some summer action movie humor. Maybe cut back on the fan references, too, since the movies are their own thing.

I'm not sure why anyone's getting excited about this. Yeah, it has some cool ideas, but do 126 pages worth of robots standing around on a bridge sound like something you'd pay $10 to go see?

What standing around on a bridge? The story builds arounds them and there's enough action to keep the viewer happy.

The story builds up to techno jargon and the constant reminder that the humans "is smart" enough now to be marginally helpful. That's not going to entertain people who came to see the first two.

John Malkovich and Ferrari Autobot Join "Transformers 3"

http://worstpreviews.com/headline.php?id=17139&count=0

"Transformers 3 has been going very well. We are going to shoot in LA, Chicago, Washington DC, Florida, Texas, Africa, Moscow, and China. On the talent front, we just locked in Frances McDormand and John Malkovich. Both amazing actors I've always wanted to work with. We also just got Ken Jeong, he is the super funny actor stuck in the trunk from 'Hangover' and the Doctor from 'Knocked Up.'

We start shooting pre-shoots in about one month.

I also was at a Ferrari charity event this week raising money for a hospital being built by Ferrari in Haiti. I announced that night the newest Autobot to join Transformers: the Ferrari 458 Italia (pictured below).

I also want to thank everyone on this site that donated to the Make-A-Wish charity. We raised $20,000 which I will personally be matching. This is a great charity where they make wishes come true for kids who are very ill. We have had many Kids from Make-A-Wish visit us on our Transformers sets and this time we will be posting video of their visits on Transformers 3."

However, i really DONT want to see f**king unicron. He would be the reason why the third movie will suck.

Just because: He would take to much production time and costs, so they cant focus on the other bots, which have more personality, like the awesome optimus prime. I hope micheal bay decides to make this movie more character heavy and exploring the transformers characters more, it would complete this new take on moviemaking that transformers introduced.
I was really disappointed with the decepticons in revenge of the fallen, i hoped they would get atleast as much screentime as the autobots in part one, but nope, they are even more pushed to the side.

They should also really reduce the number of bots and focus more on a few. I was disappointed with the constructicons in ROTF. I hoped they would be something like important characters which were sent to track down sam, but nope, they were pushed to the side like a old pair of shoes.

Bay did say he wants to put more character development in the third film and make it darker, so you'll probably get what you want. Also agree with your view on Unicron in the movie.

I actually want more bots to be honest. I'd like to see Wheeljack, Cliffjumper, Huffer, Braun, and Hound added to the Autobot team at least, along with Soundwave on legs, Thundercracker, and Skywarp added to the Decepticons.

I think TF3 will be the final battle between Optimus Prime and Megatron. and the autobots find a way to revitalise--- Oops I mean revive Cybertron and Sam and Mikeala get so frisky Sam knocks up Mikeala (though not onscreen ofcourse, but is revealed at the end of the film).

heres one of the problems I have with a so called "Final Battle of Optimus Prime and Megatron" it can never be done successfully. and I mean that because it was never seen in G1. all we got was Prime dying and coming back after a season. and Megatron becoming Galvatron. and even then Prime never killed or captured Galvatron. infact, I think the fight will never end. even in the film. they'll say its the final TF film. but I think they then work on a Beast Wars trilogy.

but if they do have a final battle between Optimus Prime and Megatron. it won't be as epic as many poeple will say it was. cuz it can't be done. I mean yeah, we all know Optimus will kill Megatron. no doubt about it. but it won't be satisfying. and will never will. because the battle between Optimus Prime and Megatron, is Destined to go on even after man is gone. the battle will wage on!

What are you talking about? You just need to pay more attention or you have a REALLY bad eye. I can tell EVERY robot apart from another. The designs are just to different. (actually, you need to pay ALWAYS pay attention in a Transformers film, or you will dont get anything, because, Transformers 1&2 arent films you can watch while leaving your brain at home, you need to think)

And i also think a good final fight between Megatron and Optimus is impossible, because we dont want to see it. However, maybe Michael Bay can get it right, or he finds another solution to end the movie franchise.

honestly, live action movies do little to NO justice to a franchise that started as a cartoon or comic book series. they kill off fan favorite charactors (Jazz, Brawl, Devastator, Bonecrusher etc) because the directors don't want to use the charactors so long otherwise they have to create the charactors background cuz they like to get lazy.

this is why live action films based on cartoons or comics are not my favorite kind of stuff.

Transformers 1&2 arent films you can watch while leaving your brain at home, you need to think

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA! Hahahahahhahaahahaha!!! Oh my God that was hilarious. Thanks for that... Hoo! Yeah, right.

If you do any paying attention you suddenl realise, a good 70 to 80 percent of the transformers movies dont make any sense. They literally contradict themselves and break their own rules constantly.

Not to mention the blaring stupidity.

You really have a small brain, dont you? Or you dont know shit about movies in general.

There's a very clear third option: You don't like what I had to say, and now you're upset. As if I was attacking you directly. I wasn't. I was "attacking" the idea that these are anything more than popcorn flicks... and even in that, they're not really. They're too damn long to qualify. Seriously, why does a movie about robots kicking the crap out of eachother have to be two hours?

Didn't realise 21 was a little kid.

Seriously, you cant see the blaring stupidity of these films? Thinking man's movies? I love films with intellectual depth, these films don't have any.

"Mission City is 20 miles away, we're gonna take this cube and hide it somewhere in the city."

AHH!!! What the Hell!? Why? A short time later in the film we are then told the only reason they brought it to the city was to evac it. Why couldn't the airlift meet the convoy halfway outside the city, and take it? What makes the Autobots unable to protect it? Were they programmed to lose, like the Gorgonites?

Not to mention... You want to take the one object a horde of giant, heavily armed, robots are solely here for into the populated city where hundreds of people will get caught in the cross fire and very likely get killed? Nobody even gives this problem a moments lip service?

You know why its like that? Everyone wanted robots blowing eachother new gear-shafts in a city, and they didn't care how. That shows immediately these films were not written to be "thinker's movies" at all. In a movie designed for a person to think, you have a certain level of human realism, which is absent here. You literally go by the formula "Form follows function." Meaning, you write things as realistically as you can, and insert the outrageous things amidst your grounding.

I could go on, but this is already way off topic. So let me see if i can tie this into the thread...

Transformers 3 will be just as mindless, and in 20 years people will completely forget about these films.   ;D

Wouldn't it be MORE dangerous to hide to cube in the city?

These were the questions I was asking my self when I watched Transformers.

these films where made the same reason why the AvP movies where made. to milk the cash cow.

Hasbro/Paramount saw how the Franchise was starting to become popular again, and Hasbro/Paramount, being the typical money-grubbing company that they are, wanted to cash in the cow sence it was now fatter then ever! so they desided to make some movies so they can get more merchindice and more money.

Why does everyone want to see Unicron so much? I wouldn't want him to receive the same treatment Galactus did in FF2, and there are other options filmmakers could explore before jumping right into such a monster character.
I want to see a giant planet-eating robot with modern photorealistic special effects.

Hell -- Just Unicron eating planets for 90 minutes. No characters, no plot, just really, really, really pretty imagery, I'm happy. :P

Apparently these were the reasons, according to MSN:

Megan Fox will not enter the next "Transformers" after confronting the director Michael Bay with derogatory comments, and Shia LaBeouf's character will have a new love interest.
Megan Fox after having compared the director Michael Bay with Hitler and has said that 'it is a nightmare to work with him, "Bay replied with a statement ironic and somewhat insulting to your blog, which predicted that the relationship between the two not would be healthy. But according to Deadline, Megan Fox nor come into the third film.

There is no evidence that the abandonment of Fox's film is negative comments by the boss, but the Deadline stated that the decision regarding the continuation or non-Fox in the movie, it's just Bay Sources close say the movie until now there will be a new character to replace Fox, and according to The Wrap, that girl is Gemma Arterton ("Clash of the Titans"). However, the site also highlights three names as possible candidates: Bar Rafaeli, model girlfriend of Leonardo DiCaprio, Miranda Kerr, an Australian model known for being one of the faces of Victoria's Secret and Brooklyn Decker also model and actress in early career, with parts in shows like "Ugly Betty" or "Chuck."

Whoever the choice of Bay, you will not play the role of Megan Fox, Mikaela. This will be entirely removed from the film and actress replacement will fill the void left in the heart of Shia LaBeouf's character.


At this rate, by actor Shia LaBeouf, the film comes to giving up because of eye injury he had during filming the second movie, and cast members dropped out and criticizes negative that movie had.

I think that this Fox-is-fired thing is either a rumor or a bluff put in by Bay to... um... lower the hate? I dunno.
Mikaela's one of the basic characters of the storyline and can't be left out like this.
I know what you all are thinking, that character is not important to the story. But believe it or not, she is.
Plus Bay is not that stupid to not understand Fox's body is what brought 40-50% of the Box office.

No but i'm hardly expecting a deep thought provoking movie that questions the meaning of life and all that exists in our world and beyond, i'm betting more than half the people who have seen these movies only done so just to watch robots knock f**k out of each other........in M Bay-o-vision. 8)

True, true, we haven't seen much of anything from bay save for explosions, but I have faith in TF3. Shia LeBoef (I think I spellled that right) said there is going to be a lot more drama in 3. I usually prefer action and adventure, but I don't mind a little death and tragedy to spice up the plot. But THEY HAD BETTER NOT KILL OPTIMUS!!! I know I may sound crazy for saying this but I HATED THAT RODIMUS PRIME shit!

Yeah I was wondering the exact same thing. Instead of bringing back characters from the first film randomly out of the blue that aren't that familiar anyway such as Grindor why not include the more classical characters and new such as Shockwave.

Maybe Soundwave will get a bigger role in 3. Then we will have 3 main Decepticons, instead of the random no names from ROTF. It seems like Soundwave was playing more of a Shockwave role in ROTF. I think Shockwave would be cool in the movie also. I wonder how a movie Shockwave would look?

I think that a satellite that is used as a means of a communication fits in with the conception of Soundwave being a Communication Officer in the original series, even more so than a radio. It made sense that he was a satellite in modern times and even more so he accomplished so much in so little time by having an alternate mode of a satellite.

i couldn't tell if megatron was megatron in the first movie, the only reason i knew is because the autobots tell you and that brings me on the subject of Jazz and ironhide, and he changed brawl's name from brawl to devastator, and I'm not going to begin on Transformer two character mistakes. Truth is the only thing i like about the two movies is their great action scenes and amazing cgi work on the transformers, and Shia LaBeouf just kills the what's suppose to be "dramatic" moment in any situation

I'm more concerned about how Bay would treat. The Dinobots are supreme wrecking machines that are more or less invincible. I'm worried he'll turn them into complete idiots for the sake of comic relief.

I liked it, but I wish Megatron would have shown some signs of rebellion. Maybe Optimus couldn't have killed The Fallen, only weakened him, then Megatron saw his chance, and killed him, making himself leader of the Decepticons.
Title: Re: Transformers 3?!
Post by: Yautja117 on Jun 07, 2010, 09:48:55 PM
Originally, (as it's still in the comic and novel adaptions) Megs was supposed to ababdon the Fallen when he learned that The Fallen couldn't make him a Prime. I like'd that version better, especially the "I will never bow to anyone again." moment.

In the 1986 film Megs is defeated by Optimus (who dies and doesn't come back til much later in the series) and is tossed out of Astrotrain by Starscream. Megs is still functioning when Unicron finds him and forces him to be reformatted into Galvatron. Me, I want Starscream to try to lead a coup against Megatron and have Soundwave kick his ass. I always wanted to see the traitor and the loyalist to fight.
Title: Re: Transformers 3?!
Post by: Nightmare Asylum on Jun 08, 2010, 12:28:37 AM
That sounds pretty good. Hopefully in TF3 we go more into Decepticon society, rather than having a bunch of generic Decepticons (Don't get me wrong, I love both movies, but they can definitely be improved, and I'm hoping that this movie does just that).
Title: Re: Transformers 3?!
Post by: Yautja117 on Jun 08, 2010, 12:34:46 AM
I hope the twins get killed in the opening minutes. They were my biggest problem with ROTF. I love them both, but damn they got annoying. Also, have Decepticons get kills! Megatron has killed Jazz. A generic killed the Acree bikes.

Yeah, all the Transformers with the exception of Optimus, Bumblebee, and Megatron fade into the background most of the time in these films. They show up in the background fighting battles that you can't really see due to shakey cam and MTV editing, and to stand there and occasionally look cool. It's what disappoints me most... other than the plot holes, Megan Fox's bad acting, and lack of real development on any of the human characters.
Title: Re: Transformers 3?!
Post by: Nightmare Asylum on Jun 08, 2010, 10:42:15 AM
Well, though not characterized, you get to recognize some of the autobots. My favorite is probably Ironhide. I hope his (and others) characters are fleshed out more in 3.

But he lets him live and uses him as an example of his might. I would also like to see starscream as an actual threat now. Let him kill ONE autobot. I would like to see him in a duel with ironhide and he kills him. With starscream standing over his corpse. I don't really care for iron hide that much.

Some new info on the movie.

http://www.superherohype.com/news/articles/102366-new-transformers-3-details

"One thing we're getting rid of is what I call the dorky comedy," Bay added. So the twins, "They're basically gone," he said, though John Turturro returns for comic relief.

The newspaper says the new villain will be Shockwave, "the robot cyclops-turned-laser-cannon, who became dictator of their home world of Cybertron after the other Autobots and Decepticons journeyed to Earth."

Excellent. :)

Well, maybe they die, i dont know. If they do, I'll feel kinda bad. I liked their characters in ROTF. I agree that they could be toned down a little, but they were still cool.

And here's the pics of them in TF3.

I don't think he's really gonna outrank Megatron. I think they might actually be against each other, considering that, in TF3, Shockwave is the dictaor of Cybertron.

Post by: Nightmare Asylum on Jun 12, 2010, 01:01:59 PM
I think the movie is gonna be great. I'm also kinda upset that Megan Fox is gone, but taking her out means more robot characterization and screen time.

One thing I'm hoping for: Galvatron. We all know Megatron only has half a head now, among other missing/damaged parts. He also is not in possession of the allspark (Optimus has it, since its powers are now in the Matrix) Maybe, unless he gets repaired, he can be transformed into Galvatron. This can hint at Unicron, and then Unicron can get a big reveal in TF4.
Title: Re: Transformers 3?!

Post by: Yautja117 on Jun 12, 2010, 01:44:50 PM
The writers didn't change his name cause they thought it would confuse people in ROTF. I some how doubt Megatron will now be Galvatron. Also, I hope they don't use Unicron. He seems pointless and would be an absolute nightmare to render.

Yeah, but in order to not confuse the audience, the character would be redesigned. Maybe we could see Megatron become Galvatron. And since this is a different continuity, maybe he can become Galvatron by other means, instead of Unicron.
Title: Re: Transformers 3?!
Post by: DoomRulz on Jun 12, 2010, 03:16:47 PM
One reason I take issue with Unicron is because when you introduce a character that is so powerful that it forces friend and foe to unite, it almost feels as though you're saying "this is it"; "last of the series" in a way because you're bringing the supremo, ultimate villain that can kill everyone and everything. I just think that the TF franchise can offer so much more in terms of robots and screentime so why end it so soon?

I don't see the point of wasting money to redesign him again though. Just have him make repairs and such. Optimus always is shiny and new looking by the end of the films, so why can't Megatron do the same? Besides, all the kids (and most of the general public) don't know who Galvatron is. I'd rather them leave Galvatron out, mostly because it's pointless to redesign him for one film. After TF3, you just know it'll be rebooted in 2 years anyway.
Title: Re: Transformers 3?!
Post by: Nightmare Asylum on Jun 12, 2010, 03:21:48 PM
True about Galvatron. But I hope not about the reboot. I want to see the series go on for a few more movies. TF3 seems like its picking things up a little. Maybe it could go 6 movies, and the final, after all the robots are characterized, can feature Unicron. I really don't want yet another reboot.

And on the topic of TF3, since Shockwave is a villain, I'm hoping for some action scenes taking place on Cybertron.

If he wants something dark he should definitely ask to Tim Burton.

Since this film will have a darker and more emotional storyline apparently, I'm guessing that the filmmakers are going to push the PG-13 rating like they did with The Dark Knight. So it won't be that bloody. I wonder how bloody it'll be in terms of robot gore?

We're talking about the scene with the assassin Decepticons. Speculating about whether they could be Pretenders like Alice.

Pretenders are transformers that have organic shells. Some resemble people, usually (in other continuities) autobots look like humans while decepticons look like monsters. In the movies, however, only the decepticon Alice is shown.

They were also the size of a regular TF. It really wasn't for hiding. Bludgeon is a famous pretender:

I hope the twins are in 3, but I hope they are toned down a little. And about the *inappropriate* jokes, I didn't like those either. But the movie itself is very enjoyable and rewatchable. Can't wait for 3, which seems like it will be darker and more serious!

I actually found Apocalypse to be just a tad bit closer to what I wanted, if only because I enjoyed the portrayal of Jill and Carlos. Nemesis got shafted big time though, and it frustrated me that Jill took a back seat behind Alice so often... I guess Apocalypse just tickled a few more of my nerd glands.

I thought the actress who portrayed Jill did a great job, but the actor who portrayed Carlos not so much. Wasn't Carlos supposed to look more young and more of a chicken like in Resident Evil 2?

You mean Resident Evil 3. And I may be remembering his character through sepia lenses of nostalgia, but he DOES save you the first time you run into Nemesis if I remember correctly. Carlos was badass.

Dark? That really is a laugh. Darkness usually implies seriousness, which Bay has damn well avoided thus far. Losing the twins or at least downgrading their role is a start, but keeping that annoying ex agent away, killing bumblebee, and stopping the lame slapstick stuff is the only way things will get anywhere near "dark".

"Transformers 3" Opening Scene Revealed

http://worstpreviews.com/headline.php?id=18324&count=0

Spoiler
Opening scene: There's a disturbance on the Moon. A robot shaped disturbance. Scientists on Earth see this and the information gets passed up the chain of command. In the White House men in black suits are breathlessly running through the halls, and they burst into the Oval Office. The president is behind the desk, back turned to the door, looking out the window. One of the men tells the president, 'Sir, something's happened on the Moon!' The president turns around. It's John F. Kennedy.

The opening scene takes place in 1961 or 1962. The story hints that Transformers were involved in the space race, which is why JFK was so eager for America to be first on the moon.

Now that you mention it, I think I do remember hearing about something that was sorta similar to this.

Yeah, I think it was about 4 months ago before it was confirmed as a fake. Though from this opening, it sounds like the series is bringing in Unicron...yuck.

Maybe none of the Autobots knew about it. Just like they never mentioned the big battle in the beginning of the second movie.

Post by: OmegaZilla on Jul 16, 2010, 08:55:17 PM
Yeah but in the first film, when the S7 guy talks to the Defense minister, he talks about the sighting on Mars. Why wouldn't he also talk about the Moon accident? This is why i don't buy it, Smells of fake.

You really think the Autobots could not have suspected the Decepticons would not build some sort of super robot as a weapon? Really? I find that harder to believe than the government just missing something that landed on the moon.
Title: Re: Transformers 3?!
Post by: OmegaZilla on Jul 18, 2010, 11:03:35 AM
What?
My point is simply that such big sighting should have been mentioned in the first 2 films.
Title: Re: Transformers 3?!
Post by: Nightmare Asylum on Jul 18, 2010, 11:55:37 AM
I didn't read the beginning so I'm not spoiled for the film, but Omega, an answer to your question could be that, with the attack on earth in 2007, the Government felt the need to release some information, so they showed Mars. They still wanted to keep some secrets, such as the Moon.

That's the problem...the audience used to expect more from their summer movies. See:

-Jaws
-The Godfather
-The Godfather Part II
-Star Wars
-The Empire Strikes Back
-Return of the Jedi
-ET The Extra-Terrestrial
-Raiders of the Lost Ark
-Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom
-Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
-Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan
-Star Trek: The Voyage Home
-Alien
-Aliens
-Predator
-Ghostbusters
-Batman
-Batman Returns
-Back to the Future
-Back to the Future Part II
-Back to the Future Part III
-Jurassic Park
-The Lost World: Jurassic Park
-Independence Day
-Men in Black

What do we have now? Transformers, Pirates of the Caribbean, and endless superhero crap, (and it's the SAME damn movie every time)! Unbelievable...

technically that shouldn't affect good red/green 3D, any more than it would polarising 3D, since all the image separation happens outside of your eyes, have you ever tried or just assumed it wouldn't work and carried on with your life?

fair enough. i wasn't trying to dispute you, but perhaps my understanding of how red/green 3D works is wrong. i was under the assumption that the red lens only lets red light through, and the same with the green lens, so you shouldn't have a problem since it's the lenses letting the light through or not, so nothing to do with your eyes at all. i guess there is more to it than that.

weird, well, it's just as well everywhere uses polarising 3D these days, except current dvd's with a 3D option, (like Coraline) red/green 3D was never very good anyway, it makes everyhting look b/w, so you weren't missing out on much.

No, I don't think so. I think she is playing a character that is from the actual show.

Pointman is correct. Fox's character has been written out. Hopfully it involves a blaze of glory, via fusion cannon.

I don't know what the excuse would be, but I would accept if they just went with a "too much for her to handle" kind of thing.

She was called Mikaela in that video though. Could just be a mistake of course.

I'm looking forward to seeing some more robot action. This will hopefully be better than the last one.

Not exactly. Sam's character was inspired by Spike from G1, hence why they used his surename Witwicky. But they changed alot from the original. The two writers from the first movie mentioned in an interview that they didn't use the name Spike because it sounded unrealistic, but they weren't ruling it out to be used as nickname in future sequels.

I think she was inspired by Carly from G1. The scene where Mikaela is impressed by Bumblebee is a reference. I really don't know why they didn't use Carly in the first place? But I'm really glad they're using Carly for Transformers 3.

Does anybody know who the Red/Black Rosenbauer Panther firetruck seen on set in Chicago is supposed to be? I've always wanted a firetruck in a Transformer movie and I really hope its Wheeljack. For some reason, I think that in a live action film that should be his alternate form.

Not a one of those pictures is from the movie, so it's not the final product. Bumblebee's a promo render, Jazz is fanart, Ratchet and Ironhide are early development concept art.

I believe that those design do not have to directly resemble their original counterparts, but they fundamentally have to summon the feel of the original ones. Do they? It's entirely individual. To me, they plain and simple do. I looked at Megatron in 2007, when he was first shown in an internet image or something, and I immediately recognized him even without knowing the design was in fact supposed to be Megatron. When I first seen Blackout, I immediately associated him with Cyclonus. Scorponok and Optimus Prime were already obvious.
Besides the fact that they didn't strictly refer to G1 only when designing the Robots - Megatron's Tank form is clearly taken from Armada, as an example.

The basic design is still the same. If anything, the only thing lacking from those images I posted is a paint job.

None of the Transformers do, Autobot or Decepticon with the exception of Prime.

true, but they do at lease have a slight resemblance. none of the decepticons do at all.

Please indicate how any of these guys look similar to their G1 counterparts.

Bumblebee

They're both... yellow?

that's pretty much what i mean, and the fact that they retain some of their car resemblance when they transform. the can only look so similar when the model of car they transform into is different.

Soundwave looked awesome in Transformers 2.

Heavily disagree. The original G1 SW is the way he should have looked, not like a tentacled, 8-eyed monster.

G1 would've looked lame, I like the direction they took.

Plus, those heads look sick.

This.

100% Agree

The G1 Designs wouldn't have worked on film. Sure they look great hand drawn, but as a functioning robot it would have been lacking. Not to say the new designs are fantastic, but a new look was needed. I think the designs in WFC did a great job of balancing what we know with something new. Again, these looks probably wouldn't have worked on film though.

The Autobots, led by Optimus Prime, are back in action, taking on the evil Decepticons, who are determined to avenge their defeat in 2009's Transformers Revenge of the Fallen. In this new movie, the Autobots and Decepticons become involved in a perilous space race between the U.S. and Russia, and once again human Sam Witwicky has to come to the aid of his robot friends. There's new characters too, including a new villain in the form of Shockwave, a longtime "Transformers" character who rules Cybertron while the Autobots and Decepticons battle it out on Earth.

Transformers 3 Will have More Comedy

http://comicbookmovie.com/fansites/Destroyer14/news/?a=24201

"What you can expect is more comedy than we've ever had before" di Bonaventura revealed. "You can expect bigger action sequences than we've ever had before and you can expect a different character through-line for our lead because he's a little bit older and Rosie's a little bit older - there's a maturity there that didn't exist before."

"He's moved on to a new stage in his life with a job, and that's an interesting rite of passage, so I think it has the emotional elements that people are expecting of the movie, but they've moved forward in time, if you would."

What this movie need is less comedy and better action. :(

NO, nonononono. No. Have they learned nothing from the 2nd? If ROTF took itself a bit more seriously, it would have been so much better. I'm going back to the Delusion Bunker(tm). Anyone upset about the alien prequel is free to join me.

That was actually Bay's idea. The original scripwriter got sick or something and a studio executive must have bumped his head or something, because they let Bay finish writing the script.

Yep, the iron balls idea was Michael Bay's idea. Its on one of the special features on the two disc edition for ROTF. He talks to one of the conceptual desgners about doing a shot where Simmons looks up and sees two iron balls. He thinks that it would get a laugh in theatres. Boy did that work....

the fact that it's an actual poster and not just an online image makes me think it's more legit than i would otherwise.

They should bring Megatron back to full power. I like shockwave as much as anyone, but I dont want to see another Fallen. In the first film, Megatron whooped everyone, ripped Jazz in half and defeated Optimus single-handidly. If it wasn't for Sam Megatron would have the cube and Prime would have been dead. In ROTF Megatron got whopped by optimus with the decepticons to back him up. He only killed Optimus with their help. MAKE MEGATRON BADDASS AGAIN!!!

Why did it surprise you? Prime had taken powers from Jetfire which allowed him to go toe-to-toe with the Fallen. The idea was to soup him up and win the fight.

I was thinking of the forest fight though. Prime still kicked some serious ass before Megatron stabbed him in the back, and that was before he got the parts from Jetfire.

I'm not expecting Unicron. Maybe for a fourth film, though Bay said 3 was the last one...But then again, Bay wanted a year off. So a fourth can happen :) But Unicron in this one would cram in too many villains.

I would welcome it I'm sick of Bay and his "GO TEAM AMERICA GO!!" attitude this movie is about bloody Transformers. I want someone who will take the lore seriously not just watch the first season of the cartoon and the 80's movie (which is all Bay knows about Transformers, he said it himself).

Anyway third movie is supposed to be darker... Shockwave is in it! (One of my fav characters) so maybe he will get it right this time.
Title: Re: Transformers 3?!
Post by: Ratchetcomand on Oct 30, 2010, 11:54:46 PM
I think if they do a 4th movie then do without Bay since Bay can work on some new fresh projects. I think its depends how the movie ends, maybe a movie set on cybertorn would be cool to see. You can make a TF movie without the humans afterall.

I know that it is early, but I was watching ROTF yesterday, and it gave me two cool ideas for prequels:

1: Cybertron before the Transformers came to Earth. I really liked the way Bay handled the scene with Megatron returning to Cybertron and talking to The Fallen and Starscream. I have faith in a humanless prequel.

and 2: More of a miniseries about NEST and the Autobots hunting down each of the Decepticons in different continents between 1 and 2.

QuotePrinciple photography may have completed (aka lead cast completed their work) for Transformers 3, but that doesn't mean filming is finished. According to On Vacation Locations and Inner City Press, Transformers: Dark of the Moon filmed in the General Assembly auditorium on Saturday.

The middle section of the General Assembly hall was full of extras, in suits and native dress, while a camera on a mechanical arm panned the crowd and then the three faux speakers on the rostrum. From the photo booth on the GA's third floor, Inner City Press heard stage directions, saw the vote tally board lit up.

On Vacation Locations mentions that Dame Judi Dench was spotted but I highly doubt it. Based on the description it sounds like part of the "Autobots - Go Home" plot point that is rumored to include Congress making their presence illegal in the States and now seems to include the UN too. Does that mean Transformers get banned from the entire planet? Or maybe it is for the end of the film and the Autobots are given planetary wide amnesty?

While Liam Neeson would be great (almost as good as David Warner) the TF movies haven't really gone the way of big-name celebrity voice actors, so it'd be strange for them to do it now.

It's a bit different when the actor is only doing a voiceover. There's no exclusive focus on him physically being there so the audience isn't going to measure everyone else's acting to his whilst watching the movie.

Liam Neeson as Shockwave? I've always imagined him more of the Optimus Prime type. In fact if I remember correctly, Michael Bay mentioned in the commentary for the first movie that he told the animators to base the body language of Optimus Prime on Liam Neeson.

Plus did anybody else notice the little easter egg in the second movie that hints that Shockwave is going to be in the third movie. It happens during the Devastator vs. Skids & Mudflap fight. While Devastator is sucking up everything in front him, there's shot where Skids and Mudflap are clinging onto a pipe. A newspaper flies onto the pipe and has an image of Shockwave before flying off. Here's the image:

Funny how Emmerich was the original choice to direct the first movie before Steven Spielberg was the producer of the movie. If Emmerich did direct Transformers then the movie would likely be no different then what we have got.
Title: Re: Transformers 3?!
Post by: OmegaZilla on Nov 17, 2010, 05:45:15 PM
Emmerich would've focused more on big scale action events. He would've expanded the Cybertron flashback for one, making a lot of TFs smashing each other. Would've made the protopods bigger. Would've made everything bigger.
And of course we would see Megatron's eye before he dies.

That, and from what I've seen so far, Emmerich directs action scenes much better in my opinion. They are lot more coherent and you actually see what's happening. In Michael Bay's movies that I've seen so far, while the action scenes are fun and entertaining, they are really hard to make out with the consistent shaky cam and extrem close-ups most of the time, though there have been a few great action shots. Plus the visual effects in Michael Bay's movie looks better than the one in Emmerich movies slightly in my opinion.

Emmerich also said he does not like to direct movies based off of comics, and TV shows. He was ofter to direct Spider-Man, and rumor to direct a Dragon Ball Z movie at one point. So I doubt he would have direct a Transformers movie.

i'm surprised, seeing as he always envisaged Stargate as a trilogy, independence day was based on the original outline for Stargate 2, and he was actually pitching a sequel to MGM a mere 3 or so years ago, obviously it was turned down because the post emmerich/devlin stargate franchise has gone in a completely different direction

Watch the Scorponok scene from the first movie and you'll see what I mean. Sure there are few wide angle shots, but only a few.

The Scorponok scene was the best one Bay has done yet.
The one which could fit the description you've given if you ask me would be Bumblebee vs Rampage and, at times, Optimus Prime vs Fallen in the second flick.
True though that Emmerich lets you enjoy the epicness of his flicks more. Look at how one of the ships comes out of the mist in ID4. It's fantastic. Majestic.

Not really back on 2003 on IGN, Roland Emmerich was said to be a part of this project but he drop out along with Hugh Jackman, who was a part of the project as well. All of the casting stuff like Ray Parks as Vegeta where just rumors. Ben Ramsey who wrote DBE said that his original movie was lot different then what the movie that we have got.

I like the group of AutoBots we have so far. They have become recognizable, but they just need more sreentime for development. Especially if this is the last film. I want to see more Ironhide, he was my favorite!

A Transfomers-only movie would be great. War on Cybertron. Maybe even Unicron. That'd be cool. More character development and all that.

Title: Re: Transformers 3?!
Post by: DoomRulz on Nov 26, 2010, 12:46:07 AM
Quite good. Season 2 was hit and miss. The first half was good because it introduced new Transformers including the Aerialbots and Stunticons, but the second half got boring because of slow stories. Season 3 is good too. It picks up right after the animated film and continues the story with Rodimus and Ultra Magnus.

Hmmm, honestly, I could be very happy with a PG. As long as they are able to get in all of the over the top robot fights that these movies are know for, maybe the film will drop the sexual jokes.

EDIT: Actually, I still kinda want PG-13, since this one was supposed to be darker...

3D by itself is not bad since it makes the picture look clean and great looking when watching the movie.

I guess so, but I still can't see spending the extra money. On a friday nights a regular ticket is already up to $9!

In australia you're looking at around $20-$25 for a feature film in 3D.

Indeed, I'm under the impression Bay is making it in 3D just to say he did.

yeah, but i'm fully expecting some of those moments where if you watch it in 2D you think to yourself "that shot was chosen for 3D and looks stupid in 2D" which happens quite a lot in "gimmick" 3D movies.

Bay confirms that the teaser trailer will be attached to The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader (December 10th) and Tron: Legacy (December 17th).

Four or five more dollars than standard, so if I were to go on a friday or saturday night, it would cost $13 or $14 compared to the already overpriced $9.

for RealD movies, in the UK anyway, you get to keep the glasses, and the tickets are not much more expensive, £1 i think, however at a different cinema i go to that uses dolby 3D you have to give the glasses back, and it costs about £2 more :(

I'd hope so. I guess the tradeoff for taking out a shitty but hot "act"ress is also losing something to look at when your eyes aren't being molested with hot metal and explosions.

The new girl is hot too though, and who knows, maybe she can actually act :P

She's a model.

I.e. She was only hired because of her looks, not her acting ability.

Ah, but she's also British. Which means nobody will be able to tell if she sucks at acting or not because she has a fancy accent.

That's what happened with Tricia Helfer for Battlestar Galactica, but she turned out to provide the show with quite a damned good breakout performance, and became progressively excellent as it went on.

Once in a while occurrence. And this is Michael Bay we are talking about. Does anyone believe he hired her because she is actually good?

Her resume is worse than Fox's, honestly. I mean, just look at it.

At least Fox and Helfer were attempting acting careers when they were hired. This chick is just some Victoria's Secret model Bay met when he directed their commercials.

I'll bet the convo went down something like this:

Bay: "Want to be in a movie?"

Rosie: "Sure."

Instant box office sensation.

And I love how they just write Fox's character out. Guess all that "I love you" melodrama in ROTF meant nothing. God I hate it when series do that.

Um, no. We have multiple Barricade (http://transformers.wikia.com/wiki/Barricade)s and Blackout (http://transformers.wikia.com/wiki/Blackout)s in prior continuities. Undeniable that all those characters are different, but then again so are for example Sideswipe, Demolishor and Sideways.

He has an uncanny resemblance to Optimus Prime. Its rumoured that the fire-truck thats been spotted is Sentinel Prime, Optimus Prime's father. So I'd say its him.

I have no doubts this film will be just like the other two. Alot of fun so long as you shove all the plotholes, cliches and corny jokes aside. This trailer most likely looks like its either going to be some kind of an opening for the film, or perhaps a flashback that reveals the story behind whats been going on. Im going for the opening of the movie because they did the same kind of thing with the reveal of Blackout from the first films opening.

While I do hope it is a bit more serious, I didn't have a problem with the jokes in the others (maybe a bit in ROTF). Transformers was never super serious to begin with. It needs to have some light heartedness to it, just a little less than before.

Usually yes, but there was just something I found appealing about Salvation's use of color. Though the movie definitely would have worked better with the blue, and terminators that killed people, and...

Wouldn't it be something if Bay decided to include Trypticon and Metroplex in a new film...I think they look f**king incredible on the big screen but I'm sure he'd screw them up somehow.

Trailer looks good, not too keen on the overly organic beard-face on that TF at the end though, I have to admit.  When the inevitable reboot occurs, the new team should definitely look to War For Cybertron for a general design direction.

I like how Megatron's prototype toy has this... shredded eye. Nice touch, makes the whole thing more menacing.
Not sure about the new vehicle mode... when I've first seen the truck I thought immediately of Scourge.... but it's actually Megatron. I always link Megatron to bellic weapons, something menacing, something imposing... a LOOKIMMAFULLOFMUD truck doesn't quite do the job IMHO. But I guess I'll have to see, since I don't know the story of the flick at all.

I liked how his first two alternate modes are a reference to the Jetmode in RID and the Tank in Armada, respectively. Just lovely, and to think of it, Megatron from Armada is my favourite design closely preceded by Beast Wars'.

Museums. With countless webs hanging off 'em. Nothing else. Following the "logic" of those fans, everything should be like G1. New things are slimy evil. New things are to be bashed.
I could make you countless other examples of this from different franchises.

I am a Transformers fan since young age. Started with Beast Wars and got hooked. Yet I don't boggle my mind with those details. I understand that the f**king thing is a reconception, remake, reimagination. The words all speak for themselves. Reimagination means something new. Megatron doesn't turn into a gun. And that's.... blasphemous?

Also, I do not believe I have seen the word "f**k" used more by any member aside from myself.  :o

These Transformers films are neither good Transformers films nor good films at all. I'm not even a fan of the series in general, yet you speak as if I am one. Yet, I know enough about the franchise to know what is good and what is just plain stupid. I don't have Bay by the noose, waiting to hang him and harvest his organs (to bring it to your overly dramatic level). You can substitute reality, Omega, as you always do, but that won't make everybody suddenly believe these are good movies- they're already too bogged down by random and excessive explosions, horrible cinematography, shameless shots of Megan Fox in ridiculous poses (and dumping her in the sluttiest attire possible so that Bay can whack off in editing), horrible pacing (however, much better in the first movie), shit-grade acting, and absolutely god-awful "humor".

You can stop pinpointing single facts- there are far more than that, and you know it. Selecting a single fact (especially one so petty) only makes their complaints seem insignificant, when really, they are numerous.

That too. Bay needs less filler. But it's the same problem he has with every movie. Because he still hasn't learned how to tell a proper story, he just throws all the action he can in front of the camera in the hopes that no one will notice. Or at least, not care...too much.

Spoiler
his alternate mode is said to be an armored rusty Mack Titan 10-wheeler tank truck equipped with heavy weaponry and a tarp which may be used as a cape in robot form to hide half of his face that was torn apart by Optimus in the end of the last movie. He has been described as the demented version of Optimus Prime's vehicle mode

IMHO the first instalment of Transformers was mediocre at best, the robots as realised were stunning in conception, although at first I didn't like the fact that Michael Bay didn't stick to the classic style of the robot designs, because I was an avid fan of the original cartoon series when I was young. I did understand that it was the 2000s and not the 1980s so their covert modes would obviously be up to date representations and the new designs grew on me.

The story itself was ok but I felt the plot was too convenient, although I don't know if it was based on passed stories- cartoon or comic. I don't think Michael Bay intended to make a film that could have realised all the now adult fans of the cartoons expectations that would have made the film awesome. What he did was churn out a franchise that was disappointing to the fans of the original series. I don't know if it was the script writers fault or Michael Bay's, probably both.

The second instalment was even worse, with a very poor story, which I thought was flawed from the start. What the hell Michael Bay was thinking when he authorised the design for Devastator! I'll never know. An ape that sucks things up? A ridiculous idea, he should have stuck with the original concept of a giant robot like in the animated movie. The Twins- enough said, making Jetfire old was stupid as well.

I agree with what has been said previously in regards to the action scenes being "hard to follow", even on a 50in screen the robots fill the screen too much and there's too much going on.

To make these films any good would have necessitated a much better story and more foresightedness and interest in the conception than is the case. The Transformers franchise was flawed from the start, with Michael Bay directing and the poor scripts it didn't have a chance.

I'm not looking forward to the third instalment, I won't watch it in the cinema or buy the DVD's.
Title: Re: Transformers: Dark Of The Moon
Post by: OmegaZilla on Dec 24, 2010, 06:50:06 PM
Regarding the first's story being "convenient", well... so was Armada's for example. All you have to do is to use a pretest to put humans in the story. You can't have a film that features Transformers only. You have to put humans in. How can you put humans in? In countless ways... and no matter how, everyone of them would be "forced" or "convenient". The plot wasn't any kind of worse than the former stories of the series - nor better nor worse, it could be put as a series without much of a problem.
I also don't see what's wrong with Devastator being how he is. He has outright the same role as his every former incarnation, alas smashing things out in a way or the other. He doesn't do much as a character - he is simply the Powerhouse of the Decepticons (the fact that they take him down that easily is another story... :P). Jetfire is partly loyal to his former incarnations if not for aspect, for his biography. He was a Decepticon that all of a sudden turned on the Autobots' side. Okey, he's old and stuff, but virtually none of the characters in the Transformers films are equal in every way as in their cartoon counterparts. They are a mixture of various series and add a bit of their own. They're a reconception. Much like the characters themselves changed and shifted (hurr) throughout the series. Look at G1 Jetfire, then at Armada Jetfire. Or at G1 Megatron and Beast Wars Megatron. They're different as well.
This post may make it seem like I am not a Transformers fan and I can understand why, but I assure I am a Transformers fan since young age. Beast Wars be the shit.

Transformers was one of the first franchises I loved as a child and I pretty much grew up collecting the figures from when I was bearly 3 years old.

I find it funny that fans of G1 complain about the story of the film. Has anyone actually seen the first series of the cartoon? It is literally an excuse to get American kids hooked on Japanese toys. There is no story. Decepticons harvest energon, autobots interfere, looks like the decepticons are winning, autobots make a comeback, decepticons retreeaaaatttt. Repeat as necessary.

As for the designs, I would have walked out if Megatron transformed from a 30 foot robot into a little pistol for starscream to shoot. Some things are great in cartoons but would look terrible if made to look realistic in a movie. Wolverine would have sucked in yellow spandex just as a lot of the designs would have failed on the big screen. I for one am really excited for Transformers 3 although I'm a bit upset knowing that Megatron will likely be killed off at the end  :'(

It wouldn't screw up the universe, as this is a different continuity. King Ghidorah was a villain in every Godzilla movie, and then was a hero in GMK, as an example.

To be fair, I've always felt that the Autobots were decently developed in Transformers (2007) but that went downhill in the sequel. Ironhide and Ratchet barely did anything, Arcee was hardly seen and had only two lines, Sideswipe got a decent amount of screentime but only had five lines and Jolt was such a disposable character. They should have spent more time focusing on these characters than the twins and Wheelie. I was impressed with Optimus Prime and Jetfire though. Hope we see more characterisations like theirs in the sequel.
Title: Re: Transformers: Dark Of The Moon
Post by: MudButt on Dec 27, 2010, 09:46:03 PM
I just hope Bay keeps the number of Autobots and Decepticons down to a minimum. I think he did pretty good with 5 Autobots in the first film. They each had some dialogue and action and it was great. As much as I would love to see all of the characters in the film appear It just wouldn't work out seeing as how in ROTF Bay just had dozens of robots running around and you don't even know what any of them looked like or who they were. 70% of the robots didn't even have a line in the movie.

Multiple scenes.
I still think him going under the bridge, transforming and landing on it is one of the best shots in the entire film. Or when he fights those Jets in mid-air. Total kick-ass.

Oh. Nice scene as well. But again, my point is given Starscream's status in the TF universe he was severely underused.

That's why I hope he has a big part in the third. Maybe he can get to talk to humans, rather than just spit on Sam ::)

Seeing him cower like a bitch in RotF before Megs whacks him was dumb. He was never afraid to go toe-to-toe with Megs in the cartoon. Sure, he would eventually say "sorry, sorry" and such but he'd argue like crazy first.

The second one takes place in the Nameless city. Starscream takes on a handful of jets in mid-air.
And then there's also him landing near Sam and schfwumping all those cars.

I corrected myself. But the point remains: two scenes does not make the character well-used. They could have used Thundercracker or Skywarp and you'd be saying the same thing.

To be honest, I really didn't see any racism. I see where people could interpret it that way after reading arguments on both sides, but I do not feel that it was intended.

As for over the top, yes, they were over the top and annoying, and could have been taken out in order to give more important bots characterization (like my favorite, Ironhide). I didn't like them, but I didn't mind them.

Yeah, that final fight it was almost impossible to tell who was who or what was what.

The forest fight was amazing, though. Even though I prefer the first movie, the forest fight was the best scene of the two.

Yeah, the forest fight was awesome as hell. I also liked the final fight scene, only because once Optimus was all roided up, he just went at those guys and destroyed them without hesitation, which is what should always happen whenever a powerful character is on screen, if he or she can f**k your shit up, then they need to f**k your shit up without hesitation.

I wonder if they'll make a point of referencing Obama again. Talk about blunt messaging.

Haha, I know. I though that there was a rule about not mentioning the current president in a movie or something? Or was that just some stupid internet rumor I read?

Don't see why there'd be a rule against that. He is the current president so where's the harm in it?

It was definitely intended, you don't make autobots act and talk like typical stereotypes, and then overdo it with them not being able to read
Not able to read ancient Cybertronian.

Can you read sanskrit? Does not being able to read sanskrit make you an ignorant stereotype?

When you add multiple stereotypes about black people into two characters, having them not being able to read is another big stereotype of blacks that went too far.

Did you watch your own video? They clearly say they don't do much reading. On top of that, they immediately recognize it as ancient Cybertronian. So now on top of people who can't read ancient dead languages, people who aren't frequent readers are also ignorant stereotypes!

That doesn't mean much when the entire character is full of stereotypes. It wouldn't be much of a problem if the autobot itself was like any other, say, Optimus Prime. But when you have a walking caricature of a black person and all its stereotypes, and add the line about not reading, that's when it gets to be too damn much than it already has.

Not sure dude, but I'm also not sure why they got a chick that looks like her favorite pasttime is sticking needles in her lips as a replacement for Megan Fox (don't care how little talent she has, she's hot) in said scenes.

Seriously, is that Joan Rivers' daughter? Jesusf**k.

The Fallen was able to sense Optimus's death, so surely he would sense Sentinal's life.

I liked Transformers 2 as well. It wasn't as good as the first one with the incoherent story, poor acting and dialogue but it was decent. I liked the action scenes as well, but some of them were too short. For example the Optimus Prime & Ironhide vs. Demolisher fight scene. It was epic in scale and had some good shots but it felt so short. It had such a big setup and then it ends abruptly.

Title: Re: Transformers: Dark Of The Moon
Post by: Keg on Feb 20, 2011, 09:48:05 PM
Is she supposed to be playing Mikaela or is it a new character. The idea of a new character just seems stupid and id much rather her just be the same one simply played by another actor. It happens all the time and it doesnt necessarily have too much of an effect on the movie itself, look at Rachel in Batman Begins and The Dark Knight.
Title: Re: Transformers: Dark Of The Moon

Urggggh. So they establish in two films that Sam and Mikaela are madly in love and will do anything for each other, risking life and death and then what? Theres going to be some kind of comment from Sam's mother about how he's going to have to get over his "offscreen, in between films" break up and then he meets Carly. Pathetic. Michael Bay is an idiot.

Have somebody else play the Mikaela character. As ive already said audiences understand you cant always get the same actors for whatever reason. Having a new actress come in and play Rachel in The Dark Knight worked well enough. Bullshit about fans complaining. Theyre still going to complain that Megan Fox isnt in it, only now its even worse because the entire character is being written out. Dye that chicks hair brown and call her Mikaela, f**king hell how hard is that.

She's not an actress, she's a model. This is her first movie.


Great casting, Bay...

I didn't mind it in ROTF, but I feel that it could get repetitive.

unless its handled really creatively. Like, if at the end, and Megan Fox Pretender comes to convince Sam so allow himself to be captured by the Decepticons. It looks like her to mess with his mind and emotions and stuff.

She can't help it. Directors know teen boys drool over the sight of her so it will always happen. Heck, the shot of her on the bike in RotF from the rear was a surprise to her even because Spielberg wanted to capture people's attention right away when introducing her.

Urggggh. So they establish in two films that Sam and Mikaela are madly in love and will do anything for each other, risking life and death and then what? Theres going to be some kind of comment from Sam's mother about how he's going to have to get over his "offscreen, in between films" break up and then he meets Carly. Pathetic. Michael Bay is an idiot.

carly was sam's girlfriend in the G1 cartoons, not sure why michaela wasn't actually carly to begin with.

Or Sideswipe. :'(

If you're going to have twins or brothers, make it the original two, Sideswipe and Sunstreaker.  I'd rather see Gimli/Legolas antics contesting the number of each one's defeated enemies between the brothers than petty squabling from the twins.

I could agree with that, but the Fallen seemed to have some psychic stuff going on, and he was able to sense Optimus's death as it was happening. I just feel that he would have been able to know that Sentinel was alive, too.

Maybe it will be explained in the movie, who knows. Maybe he was able to mask his presence or something. Maybe he was dead and brought back. Nothing is certain at the moment.

Maybe he was in a coma or something, seeing as how he had probably been on the moon for a long time.

Or maybe time traveling is involved? Didn't the first trailer, when they found his ship on the moon, take place during the 60's? Maybe he will travel to our day, which would explain why The Fallen couldn't sense him.

I'm sure we'll get some explanation at least. :D

Wow!
Now that's some nice shots in there. Love Optimus Prime and his new uber-gun thing.

So is this gun basically a modified version of the one he had in the past two movies? If I recall correctly, that one only had one barrel.

Sentinel has a missle on his arm cute.
That's not a missile, that's his firehose nozzle.

That's the reason for why I simply have to turn my head when I see an image of that woman. I hate pumped, dinghy lips. They strike with an incredible success in ruining the beauty of a woman. She can have nice hair, nice eyes, nice nose, but those f**king lips? Graaaaaaaaaaaah. They are f**king ugly. As are all the women that overdo plastic surgery - and Whiteley is an excellent example of that.

Even with that, I don't think she's so special. I just hope she'll perform well as a character even if honestly... I think we know what to expect  ::)

she be good you see

It should be out by May since the TF2 trailer was release around the end of April IIRC? Rumor has it that a full length trailer will be released with "Thor".

Give it another month at most, I should think. It's going to be a summer film so I'd expect another trailer closer to that time.

And a comment from Michael Bay.

The post process is going very well - way better then ROTF. We have massive shots but we got going 6 months earlier on this film then the last. We jump very hard and fast on post in this film.

It really is looking special. The 3D will the best 3D of any movie this year.

Michael

Our trailer comes out next week on Fast and a bunch of other stuff. 3D trailer comes out on the next 3D movie out which is Pirates.

Only movies from the 80's can get away with their own time period music and still be awesome... ie Top Gun ;D

Then it's safe to say you don't like soundtracks post-1989?

Well to be honest, I can't really think of any song-based soundtracks since then that have made me take notice in a good way. Or at least none have sprung to mind. If anyone wants to show me otherwise, I'm all ears  :)

And a comment from Michael Bay.

The post process is going very well - way better then ROTF. We have massive shots but we got going 6 months earlier on this film then the last. We jump very hard and fast on post in this film.

It really is looking special. The 3D will the best 3D of any movie this year.

Michael

Our trailer comes out next week on Fast and a bunch of other stuff. 3D trailer comes out on the next 3D movie out which is Pirates.

What's funny about these transformers design is that if they would have gone for something not as busy they would have saved a whole boat load of cash in rendering all those little useless pieces. Or they could have spend that cash on more animation and not need to reuse stuff.

Yeah.... the War of the Worlds remake got it from the War of the World book. So 1898.

I'm pretty sure HG Wells did back in 1898 with War of the Worlds. He made aliens more popular and scary then anyone else did before.

Soundwave is going to be disguised as Rosie Huntington-Whiteley's Mercedes Benz... Michael Bay debunked it on his forum but then again he also said that Megatron wasnt going to be in the last movie, so....
[close]

Screenrant  is usually a reliable source, so I'll count on it. Name not confirmed, but sincerely, who cares? The character'll probably have a small role.

I would feel a helluva lot more excited for this film if it was called "Transformers 3: We're Sorry" and opened with a 15 minute monologue from Michael Bay in which he pleads with the audience for forgiveness after the travesty that was Transformers 2, before exploding in one of the best pyrotechnic stunts ever performed. Is that really too much to ask?!

But really, I would feel so much more excited if it wasn't following TF2. I thought the first film was big, dumb and full of fun aided by a steady Spielberg hand and a nice central theme (a boy and his first car). That I'm actually still quite dubious about this film despite public apologies and an appealing teaser trailer says a lot about how bad the second film shit the bed for me.

It... has... teeth.  ::)

Don't think that's teeth but merely just the metal.

Ok, but it has a rib cage.

So?

Which is cool because, visually, Skyline was stunning. Especially for its budget.

But why does bay have to make nearly every Decepticon gray? Makes them hard to tell apart...

Umm..don't know if you noticed but everything is hard to tell apart in Transformers. Apparently cinematography= shooting every fight sequence at a distance of 0.1 nano-meters. And it doesn't make it any easier the camera is focused on barely visible moving parts moving and shifting at a million miles per hour. I nearly threw up after the seccond movie.

Yeah, I know that, but I mean during the (very, very rare) still shots, where the Transformers are just talking (and I mean the rare shots with no explosions in the background) it would help if we could tell them apart a little more. There were too many generic robots in ROTF.

That said, this movie will probably just be more unintelligent, terrible, dumb fun like the first two. I'll enjoy it for that, but it will probably be a horrible movie. I hope its at least on the level of the first one, though.

I agree with everything you said, but for me, it was not fun. But thats just me, I just thought it was garbage, but I'm kind of a film snob, so I couldn't say I liked either of the last ones.

I am a film snob too, usually.

But for some reason, seeing these movies with my friends, despite their quality, or lack of it, I end up enjoying them. They are terrible movies, with barely any plot, and uninteresting characters (except the main soldier dude. He's kind of cool), but I just end up enjoying them for some reason.

I hated Skyline and other movies of the sort, I guess its just something to do with bay. His action scenes have too much shakey-cam, but I just tend to find them as VERY dumb fun.

You guys crack me up claiming that Revenge of the Fallen was some sort of hideous insult to all movies.  It was basically exactly like the first movie, except with more idiotic characters and more transformers fighting.  Are you really serious?  Storyline wasn't really the strong side of either film, but it was enough to keep the audience engaged from scene to scene.  You do know that Transformers is based off of a childrens cartoon, right?

The transformer design and directing are valid critiques, in my opinion, because how can you enjoy a movie if the action is just so intense you can't see anything?  It's too awesome to see!  (I remember another film based on a few franchises I love being annoyingly dark, wakka wakka).  That's my own personal hope, that Bay chills out with the 14,000-different-piece robots flying around in blurry shaky-cam as they fire 40 different weapons at each other.  And constant Matrix slow motion is not the answer, dude.

Rant over.  The new one looks wicked, so far.  I could see what was happening!

These movies are based on a cartoon that's sole purpose was to sell Japanese toys to American kids. They had to fill in a backplot which consisted each episode with:

Decepticons find enegon, Autobots interfere. Looks like Decepticons are winning, wait no, something happens and Megatron yells "Retreaaaaaattttt!!!" Rinse, Repeat. Good on Bay for throwing in a little titty to the already deep plot.

I never said the franchise sucked, as a childrens cartoon, even though it was stereotypical of the material, was excelent, not to mention the toys that came with them were one of the most inventive yet. I loved the original Transformers as a kid, hell, I adored it, the new movies? Nothing about it is Transformers, give me some 80's hair metal. The new Transformers movies are raping my childhood, none of it is the transformers I grew up with, not to mention it is a rape to the art of cinema, like I already stated/ gave examples for

And with less imagination, worse writing (I mean whose idea was it to give the comedy sidekick a comedy sidekick and then give that guy 2 comedy sidekicks), lack of any real core theme or dedication to it (the first with it's 'boy and his first car/ love theme) and boasted a villain who spent the majority of the film sending others to do his work and when he does rear his head he's defeated almost outright. It felt like shit was being thrown at the wall with it's erratic pacing and without any real focus. The first is hardly a masterpiece but there had at least been an attempt at focusing the plot and pacing the narrative.

Not to mention the "Negro"-Bots in the sequel that OBVIOUSLY were just comedic black stereotypes, that just happen to not be able to read, just happen to have gold teeth, and just happen to use a level of inane ebonics in everything they say, because, "Black people are stupid, right audience, it's funny, right? RIGHT?" And keep nailing you over the head with it the entire movie. What sickens me even more is Steven Spielberg, a decent if not GREAT director, attached his name to this retardation.

I don't think Spielberg had any real say over the film in any capacity as I remember. He was involved in helping get the first film made and the crew together (including Michael Bay) but he's had little else to do with the franchise since according to my knowledge. But I do agree about the "negro" twins. They were just terrible from conception to execution. I mean why the thought the comedy sidekick's comedy sidekick needed a further two somewhat racist comedy sidekicks, is beyond me.

Spielberg watched the movie with Bay several weeks before the premiere. He then turned to Bay and said "It was awesome!".

While these movies have very little do to with the G1 series, I watch them with a open mind and know that they are nothing like their cartoon counterparts.

I do admit that the second movie was pretty damn bad, even if it did had more action.

Just because he has bad taste, does NOT mean he makes bad movies. I don't care if he loved Uwe Boll either, his movies count. Something Baybeys (clever huh?) don't know. Why pay the same for a "popcorn flick" if you could pay the same for something that actually moves you?

I dont think that anyone said "Oh well I'm going to watch Transformers 3 instead of (insert thought provoking cinema here)."
And as Samuel L Jackson said:
"Not everybody goes to movies to get their life changed."
There is nothing wrong with going to see a movie for fun.

There is something wrong with seeing a film for "fun" (Watching a Bay movie is hardly fun) if you won't watch a movie for the same time to actually get your mind blown. Why would you not want your mind blown? That is the purpose of cinema in the first place, to give high quality mind blowing, amazing, thought provoking material, something Transformers fails on all account.

I needed a good 5,000th post, and I think this is it.

Cinema is an art form. There is not specific way to do it. There are no rights or wrongs. There are opinions. According to most people, myself included, Transformers fails at creating likable characters or forming a worthwhile story, but has entertaining action scenes and is fun to watch when hanging out with friends. Then there are movies like Alien or Inception or 2001 A Space Odyssey, which are best when watched alone, and, while they have amazing special effects, the story and deep undertones are what draws people in. And even still there are comedies which can are often just watched when a person wants to relax or have a bit of fun. Different movies aren't just for different tastes, but also for different moods. I think of movies the same way I do music. Each and every film has its own meaning, and every movie exists to show something off. Some show off plot, others actors, and others special effects. It is all the personal taste of the director. I, personally, love my movies with great acting and meaningful stories, just as I like my music with thought provoking lyrics. But who am I to stop someone from enjoying Transformers?

It could be, Bay manages to replace all of that. There is nothing thought provoking, mind blowing, and amazing about this:

You are absolutley right, cinema is an art form. You are right there is some opinion. But a watercolor of two girls one cup, which is the ocular equivilant to transformers. You are right, we have no right to judge others who enjoy Transformers, I simply am saying most are kids under 18 who still haven't had the opurtunity to explore other film, like Apocolypse now, or 2001, or hell, Alien. There is something wrong when you are trying to justify watching something that has no worth in thought or feeling, something dull and boring, ala Transformers. I did somewhat enjoy the first one, I have it a 2 1/2 out of 5. The seccond, just showed how talentless Bay is at directing. He should be a cinematogropher, rather. Films like Transfomers, block buster dumb popcorn movies, are why more arthouse and intelegent social commentaries are mainly flops. Everybody would rather have thier eyes jacked off by Bay.

I am also saddened that these films are popular, while more thought provoking ones are not. The thing I hate the most is when a genre is milked dry simply because it is popular, and then Hollywood forgets about it. Then, when it is forgotten, someone comes up with a really great story in that genre, but the studios won't let them make it because it is no longer profitable.

I'm currently in film school, and this makes me want to throw up. I have risked life and limb and home, I am currently working in film school, and this makes me sick. I have spend money, hell, nearly went broke pursuing the field I loved since I watched my first movie, 2001, and now, DUMB ASS POPCORN MOVIES like TRANSHITTERS, make me wonder if it is worth it. I spent sleepless hours analyzing and studying, and then read this post, asking why have I tried, if "men" like Bay are the street pleasers, and not the indie thought provoking ones. This post makes me sick.

The Box Office shows that people flock to these movies, and not art house, thought provoking ones, when dumb shit like this gets millions of dollard and smarter films don't, the ideal magic of cinema is all but lost. In fact, watching 2001, one of my friends said I'm bored, and said lets watch Transformers instead. I nearly shit out my entire organ system. If you do not see my point, and still would rather watch this then some other better movie for the same price, you are only proving my point. I would much rather watch The Myth of the American Sleepover (upcoming independant film) which deals with childhood, the passing from one year to the next, during summer, and think, and feel genuine emotion, then simply waste two hours having Bay jack off my eyeballs. What is even more sad is, you probably only know about the films that are guarenteed to make the summer box office.

To be honest, I do sort of agree with you. And I only watch movies like this for fun, yes, but I still watch classics. Hell, none of my favorite films were made past the 90s.

And I had a similar experience. A friend of mine refused to watch Aliens because he was disappointed that there wasn't any gore..

So do I since I love watching great films from Kubrick, Hitchcock, Ishiro Honda, and Fritz Lang. These movies are based off of a cartoon series that half of the characters where created to sell toys. None of the Transformers shows or comics had any real death to them. If a live action movie of them where made then the movie is going to be a mindless popcorn flick

I'm not a fan of most of Bay's movies, and I don't think any of the TF live action where in general. But I see nothing wrong with people just seeing movies for fun, and nothing else? This is no different then most monster movies from the 50's where made like "Them!", "Beast of 20,000 Fanthoms", and "The Giant Gilla Monster". Most art type of films never get a big release because the studio thinks they won't sell, but they always get word of mouth when the Oscar time shows up (Like Slumdog Millionaire for example).

Then wait till it comes on DVD. Spend your matine on something worthy of the silver screen, that moves you, and makes you think. I want mental masturbation, rather then ocular, which Bay is so good at, I fail why he doesn't becoume a cinematographer.

If all movies where all art then movies and done by Georges Melies then cinema would be boring since the whole point of cinema is have people is to be creative. It's no different when painting a picture, or creating a video game, or creating music. Nothing in movies would be fun.

If you think thinking is boring then I feel terrible for you. Trying to understand and contemplate a symbol and a point that relates to our modern world is alot more meaningful, and alot less time wasting, then watch "Megatron" butf**k "Optimus Prime" at a distance that nobody knows what the ass is going on. Video Games, also, cannot be art, because they are meant to be exactly fun, popcorn flicks, so if you play video games, and yet, still want more popcorn, and you are justifying your position that you think films like 2001 and Kubrick are boring if they dominated cinema, then all that cinema has hoped to achieve, the magic that movie making and the silver screen can offer, is all but gone. You ruined it, you would rather have a Bay in existance then have thought provoking material dominate. A cinema dominated by philosophy, is not a boring one at all, and shows just how boring you really are.

I am not much of a gamer, but when I do play I expect well written characters, good plot, and then, underneath that is gameplay, and finly graphics. Basically the same as my view on movies. Story and characters, themes, etc. And then special effects. And by those standards, Transformers is terrible. But i, for whatever reason, have the ability to enjoy it. It's not something I think about for days aftr like 2001 or Serenity, but it's just simple, dumb fun. I wish there were less dumb fun movies and more legitimate stories being made but, unfortunately, that is not the case.

That is up to debate, and I am largely on Ebert with this one. Video games cannot be art because art is through the eye of the prociever, and video games are story driven. Video games are story driven. If you are willing to say that pacman questions us about the ineptitude of government, then you deserve a neck. Not all video games are art. If a video game that is abstract and symbolic enough where it is not dominated by the story, then it becoumes art, so far no video game that I know of does this, though I may be wrong.. But that is besides the point, my main point I have already said in 70 diffrent angles.

Show me a game that makes you have the same feeling as watching the end of 2001 and the entirety of Eraserhead, then I will admit my wrong.

I am not saying video games are bad, I am saying that the difference between Transformers and Fallout 3 is I can control Fallout 3, I can play it, and am not bored by it. Video Games are 9/10 of my life. I love them, I just don't think one, as of yet, is considered to be art. Again, give me one, and I will eat my dick.

Also, for you Nightmare Assylum, I will repost why it is ASS.

I have spend money, hell, nearly went broke pursuing the field I loved since I watched my first movie, 2001, and now, DUMB ASS POPCORN MOVIES like TRANSHITTERS, make me wonder if it is worth it. I spent sleepless hours analyzing and studying, and then read this post, asking why have I tried, if "men" like Bay are the street pleasers, and not the indie thought provoking ones. This post makes me sick.

The Box Office shows that people flock to these movies, and not art house, thought provoking ones, when dumb shit like this gets millions of dollard and smarter films don't, the ideal magic of cinema is all but lost. In fact, watching 2001, one of my friends said I'm bored, and said lets watch Transformers instead. I nearly shit out my entire organ system. If you do not see my point, and still would rather watch this then some other better movie for the same price, you are only proving my point. I would much rather watch The Myth of the American Sleepover (upcoming independant film) which deals with childhood, the passing from one year to the next, during summer, and think, and feel genuine emotion, then simply waste two hours having Bay jack off my eyeballs. What is even more sad is, you probably only know about the films that are guarenteed to make the summer box office.



Also, let us just compare soundtracks.

Video games being art is debatable, and I might as well have kicked myself in the ass for saying it. What is not debatable is the rape of cinema which is Transformers.

Ifwe are comparing soundtracks too, then Halo 3 ODST is definitely one of my favorite pieces of art. And the rest of the Halo series, and Tron Legacy, and Jurassic Park. And even Tramsformers, which I felt had a great soundtrack that the movie was not worthy of.

Indubudably, I don't think Transformers was that noteworthy, my favorite soundtrack so far would have to be the Inception soundtrack.

That is up to debate, and I am largely on Ebert with this one. Video games can not be art because art is through the eye of the prociever, and video games are story driven. Video games are story driven. If you are willing to say that pacman questions us about the ineptitude of government, then you deserve a neck. Not all video games are art. If a video game that is abstract and symbolic enough where it is not dominated by the story, then it becoumes art, so far no video game that I know of does this, though I may be wrong..
Is anybody saying some shit so crazy as that? Please, look deeper at, say, the work of Rockstar Games where they have a more fleshed out vision of the West (of course I'm talking about Red Dead Redemption) than a movie is capable of. It's more comparable to television in the way that something like Red Dead plays out (without being canceled halfway through it's run of course...). The thing is, Red Dead Redemption matches and exceeds a f**kton of Westerns (film) out there, not only in it's view of the west, but in terms of it's story. It also provides a layer of depth that a film simply cannot.

If exceeding film in ways that many people still can't seem to grasp is what games have been doing since the beginning of the past decade, then that's the way it'll be until videogames are accepted as art by, mostly, the OLDER generations; ala film snob and pretentious c**t, Roger Ebert, who is clearly undereducated on the subject as to properly speak of it, thinking of Pac-Man gobbling up random orbs and doing stiff 90 degree turns. If the old fart saw Red Ded Redemption's opening scene, he'd be sitting there with his bottom lip gaze (ooh, too soon?) turned upward in arrogance, yet fully knowing what he is whitnessing is art on the same level as film or dramatic television. I've only been using Red Dead Redemtion here as an example, but god knows there are so many more. Grand Theft Auto being the one that catches the most flak from old generations who haven't seen a single cutscene.


Oh, and on the topic of soundtracks?

Point taken, I just think, in my opinion, it hasn't advanced. What is not opinion and what this thread is based on, is the shit which is Transformers.

Indeed. Just like your preferred genre of film, you are also entitled to your preferred style of art. Video games included.

Me, I choose cinema. The blend of film, writing, music...how could it not be considered art. If anything, it is the most demand art form because it combines so many others. And with it, there are so many different possibilities of films to experience. Transformers is one of those. Its certainly not a good movie, but it is not the "death of cinema" you were calling it. Especially when we still have our favorites to love and cherish and rewatch until our eyes bleed.

Whoever said movies are not art is insane.

I should also mention that, while I'm with you on Transformers being shit, I think the hit against it's soundtrack by using the Linkin Park track was an unfair one... because, well, Linkin Park is shit.  :laugh:

Try this:

- Prison_Mike, don't be so anal. Please. Pull that stick out of your ass. I agree with everything said here regarding cinema being an entertainment form. I don't care if these movies aren't filled with thought-provoking and Oscar-worthy material. I watch them because I want to see robots kicking the crap out of eachother for two hours. And, in thart regard, Bay delivers BIG TIME.

- Anyone who says videogames aren't an art form is a rusty smartass trying to sound intelligent or illustrate who hasn't played a videogame since Tetris came out.

That is up to debate, and I am largely on Ebert with this one. Video games can not be art because art is through the eye of the prociever, and video games are story driven. Video games are story driven. If you are willing to say that pacman questions us about the ineptitude of government, then you deserve a neck. Not all video games are art. If a video game that is abstract and symbolic enough where it is not dominated by the story, then it becoumes art, so far no video game that I know of does this, though I may be wrong..
Is anybody saying some shit so crazy as that? Please, look deeper at, say, the work of Rockstar Games where they have a more fleshed out vision of the West (of course I'm talking about Red Dead Redemption) than a movie is capable of. It's more comparable to television in the way that something like Red Dead plays out (without being canceled halfway through it's run of course...). The thing is, Red Dead Redemption matches and exceeds a f**kton of Westerns (film) out there, not only in it's view of the west, but in terms of it's story. It also provides a layer of depth that a film simply cannot.

If exceeding film in ways that many people still can't seem to grasp is what games have been doing since the beginning of the past decade, then that's the way it'll be until videogames are accepted as art by, mostly, the OLDER generations; ala film snob and pretentious c**t, Roger Ebert, who is clearly undereducated on the subject as to properly speak of it, thinking of Pac-Man gobbling up random orbs and doing stiff 90 degree turns. If the old fart saw Red Ded Redemption's opening scene, he'd be sitting there with his bottom lip gaze (ooh, too soon?) turned upward in arrogance, yet fully knowing what he is whitnessing is art on the same level as film or dramatic television. I've only been using Red Dead Redemtion here as an example, but god knows there are so many more. Grand Theft Auto being the one that catches the most flak from old generations who haven't seen a single cutscene.


Oh, and on the topic of soundtracks?

Not exactly a synthesized "bleep-bloop-wakka-wakka", is it?

Excellently put, Space Sweeper.
Interesting, RDR is also the game I used to convince teachers / parents at my school that video games aren't stupid, story-less, kiddie kill-a-thon things.

Also, agreed with the above,
There's a big difference between a good film and just an entertaining film.
And a guilty pleasure, which is what Revenge of the Fallen is. :D

After reading the last few pages and facepalming so f**king hard I nearly broke my nose, I feel like I've to stand up against this travesti:

- Prison_Mike, don't be so anal. Please. Pull that stick out of your ass. I agree with everything said here regarding cinema being an entertainment form. I don't care if these movies aren't filled with thought-provoking and Oscar-worthy material. I watch them because I want to see robots kicking the crap out of eachother for two hours. And, in thart regard, Bay delivers BIG TIME.

- Anyone who says videogames aren't an art form is a rusty smartass trying to sound intelligent or illustrate who hasn't played a videogame since Tetris came out.

I have a ps3, and Xbox 360, but I mainly PC game, and no, I still don't think a video game has come out the meets the qualifications for art, but, each persons definition of art is diffrent.

And I will not get the stick out of my ass because I am a film-snob, and damn proud of it. I have put time and money and life into the film school I am currently working on, and when these movies becoume more popular then more thought provoking cinema, I ask myself, what am I godamn doing with my life? When you refuse to watch intelegent cinema, which I KNOW none of you do, and decide to watch a "popcorn flick" with Michael Bay jacking off your eye sockets, then, like I said the art of cinema is gone or close to it.

Watch Jacob's Ladder, watch Eraserhead, watch Apocolypse Now, watch A Clockwork Orange, watch Full Metal Jacket, something that moves you and effects you, watching something for cheap violence and shit fight scenes by a director more qualified to be a burger flipper, then that is when I get upset. Why? Because, again, I have put my life to becoume a film maker, and these films are godamn running the summer box office. I will be anal, have anal, and engage in anal as I please.

So you think movies that have an intelegent point to convey always have to be boring? Compare the fly with 2001, they are completley diffrent, yet are two GREAT films. A cinema dominated by intelegent cinema doesn't always have to be like Stanley Kubrick, there will be diffrence.

Hey, Prison_Mike..
My cousin is involved with film
and he actually went as far as to laugh at you for saying cinema is dying because people would rather watch a movie for fun.

Everyone has different tastes. I watch movies for enjoyment, whether I want to feel scared by them, whether I want them to make me laugh, or whether I just want to have a good time. Your first step to becoming a "film maker" is learning this.


Anyway, enough of this, as Mikey said(I posted this just as he posted his reply)

Mike, enough with the name calling and enough with this pathetic argument. People like what they like, deal with that. The cinema hasn't had thought provoking movies coming outta their ears constantly in a long time. The cinema is an entertainment form, used for entertainment, and robots smashing eachother to shit is entertainment.

If you wanna grow up big and strong and make thought provoking movies, go do that, but let people get on with what they like and stop derailing threads.

Yeah. Even though so far Shockwave is looking awesome, and although he is definitely the main villain, and I hope he features in the movie far more than the Fallen did in ROTF, I also hope that Megatron doesn't become sidelined. He is one of the best characters in the film series in my opinion.

If you watch film to turn your mind off, then all that film was made for and hoped to achieve is gone.  Nothing about Transformers is awesome, unless you count the number of suckers Bay lures in to his shit movies. I'm guessing this one will be a worse rape to cinema then the previous one. Also, WHY MAKE A FILM BASED ON A CHILDRENS CARTOON?! Oh I forgot, MONEY! If you think Transformers and it's kin are a respectable form of entertainment, it shows how far the art of cinema has gone down the shitter of "mindless action" When I see shit like Transformers, I get bored. Why? More of the same recycled bull that every similar movie has, nothing diffrent, and Micheal Bay thrives off that boring dumb action. Transformers sucks, period, end of story.

Since I'm not going to read the 7 goddamned pages since my last post (!) I will respond to this.  Forgive me if Mike has stepped in it again and angered the elder mods.

QuoteIf you watch film to turn your mind off, then all that film was made for and hoped to achieve is gone
What?  I do watch it to escape, and it works very, very well.

QuoteNothing about Transformers is awesome
The transformers were incredibly, mind-blowingly awesome.  So was the music.  So was the action and the often humorous script, well-played by all roles if a little corny at times.  So were the voices of the transformers.  So was Megan Fox.  So were the incredible combat scenes that used actual footage of things like an AC-130 Gunship firing down on a target.  If that isn't enough, you went to the wrong movie.  Bridges of Madison County is in theater 4, sir.

Quoterape to cinema
Oh yes, it's a rape to cinema.  It was all so brilliant and pure before the Transformers abomination.

Maybe because CHILDRENS CARTOONS used to be centered around strong lessons and morals.  In the case of Transformers, there are many demonstrations of these qualities, such as courage, honesty, leadership, fairness, compassion, justice, etc...  These concepts are important psychological archetypes that are used in just about every story, in a different combination.

There are also some more advanced concepts for the clever folk like yourself.  Humanity's struggle with violence and war being reflected by the Transformers own "social evolution" on Cybertron was one.  So is the well of topics that comes with the idea of a sentient machine in general, such as how do they establish morality?  Why do they assist the human race?  How will they deal with it when humans f- it up, like they always do?  How do they poop?  Can an F-22 Raptor really be evil?  There are many aspects of a movie you should learn how to recognize before pasting it as total garbage.

The stereotypical, recycled plot you mention, while being your single valid point, is just the business of creating entertainment.  Stories are generally constructed around the same formats that have been the standard since the ancient Greeks, because people expect it, and can follow it easily from one point to the next.  No, Transformers isn't a creative voyage into the art of reinventing cinema, but it does hit all of the standard notes while showing you awesome robot carnage.

QuoteTransformers sucks, period, end of story.
The first film grossed over $700 million, so apparently a few people disagree with you.  It was also nominated for an Academy Award for Best Achievement in Visual Effects, and Steve Jablonsky won the BMI Film Music Award for the score.

To close, I have discovered through this debate that you are a constipated old woman.

I am so sure that this movie well suck worse then the previous two, that if it GENERALLY does everything a movie should do, I will eat my own testicals, while they still are attatched to my penis. When I think good  cinema I think Stanley Kubrick, David Fincher, Cristopher Nolan, etc. When I think of Michael Bay, my last shit comes to mind.

Now I'm reading.  Sweet Roller.  Oh yes, Mike, god forbid people actually watch movies for fun, and not to plumb the intellectual depths of their souls.  If you take movies that seriously, expect hemerrhoids.

I'm trying to compile a list of all the movie related Transformers comic EU material in anticipation of the new movie.  I'm afraid I'm missing a few titles, could someone help me out?  Here's what I have so far.

Transformers 1:
Official movie prequel to Transformers
Unofficial movie prequel to Transformers (compilation of comics that were published in a UK Transformers magazine)
Transformers Movie Prequel Special (one that was given for free in theatres)
Transformers Movie Prequel (mini comic that came with Target DVD)
Transformers Movie Adaptation
Reign of Starscream

Transformers Revenge of the Fallen:
Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Defiance
Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Alliance
Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Movie Adaptation
Transformers Nefarious
Transformers Sector 7
Transformers Tales of the Fallen

Transformers Dark of the Moon:
Transformers Rising Storm
Transformers Foundation
Transformers Dark of the Moon Movie Adaptation

If I'm missing any, please tell me.

EDIT: I know there are also novelizations for the Transformers movies.  There are only 5, right?  Transformers 1 prequel and adaptation, Transformers Revenge of the Fallen prequel and adaptation, and Transformers Dark of the Moon adaptation (no prequel).
Title: Re: Transformers: Dark Of The Moon

What?  The majority of the EU for the Transformers movie franchise is canon.  There's a great deal of work dedicated to making sure that there are consistencies between each of the EU titles; some of them even reference events depicted in the other EU merchandise.  You have to consider them canon.

The prequel writers are given the movie script to work with before the movie comes out... they have to care about what happens where and when in the movies.. but the movie writers dont have to care (and dont) about the prequel comics.. at all.....

Nooo way. It's racial stereotyping down to the design. They're better of left out.
Which is why everyone thought they were going to be inbred hicks when their headshots got leaked. That sure turned out to be an accurate impression, didn't it?

I think its stupid that they are even taking the Twins out. All they needed to do is tone them down.

Exactly. It would been better if they just appeared as background characters. That way it could have rid the series of yet again another plot hole.

But the character that I'm really disappointed not see return is Jolt. He barely even got any screentime in ROTF, I think he deserved at least some screentime. Him and Barricade.

QuoteFrom Michael Bay:

    After the internet posting of a nice review by someone who saw Transformers Dark of the Moon, the writer had not been clear on one thing. He misstated that the Twins are in the film. They are not.

    So I am offering a $25,000 REWARD to anyone who can find them performing in Transformers 3, on July 1, when the movie opens.

    Michael

Pfft...no need to wait until July 1. I've already found the twins in the trailer.

Right behind Bumblebee. Clear as day. Nobody ever noticed them before because everyone was just focused on Optimus Prime in that shot. So how do I contact Michael Bay to collect my money?

Quotefew Decepticons are still around, including a severely beaten down Megatron, who's especially creepy in DARK OF THE MOON because half of his head is missing and these little spider-like robots crawl in and out of the place where his brain circuitry may have been at one time. He plucks them out, almost without noticing, which somehow makes it worse. Still, Megatron is in good spirits because a plot hatched long ago is coming to fruition

Odd think is, Ironhide is major player in the comics and has quite a few toys for the movie. Makes me wonder why they'd kill him? Also, I won't put it past Shockwave to BE Sentinel similar to how he was in TF: Animated.

BEWARE MASSIVE, MASSIVE SPOILERS! IF YOU DON'T WANT TO SPOIL THE WHOLE MOVIE FOR YOUSELVES, STOP READING! IF YOU DON'T MIND, THEN FEEL FREE TO READ ON!

Spoiler
Here is a descripitive summary of the plot of the movie based on the comic book adaption and other sources. Note that this summary is based on the comic book adapation of the movie, which was based on an early draft of the script. The final film maybe vastly different from the comic. IF YOU DON'T WANT TO SPOIL THE WHOLE MOVIE FOR YOUSELVES, STOP READING NOW!!

Spoiler
On July 20th 1969, the Apollo 11 discovered a crashed alien ship on the moon. They also found its captain: Sentinel Prime.

In the present day, the Autobots have now become fully sanctioned members of the U.S. military. Bumblebee, Sideswipe, Mirage and Wheeljack investigate a nuclear facility in the Middle East. Meanwhile, Optimus Prime and Ratchet oversee the destruction of the decommissioned NEST facility in Diego Garcia. With their mission complete in the Middle East, Optimus commands the Autobots to head to Washington D.C, while he, Ratchet and Captain Lennox leave for Prypiat, Ukraine, following a lead on a recently resurfaced enemy.

In Washington D.C. Sam, now lives with his new girlfriend Carly Miller, secretary working for Dylan, a CEO of a major investment company. The pair also lives with decommissioned Autobots; Wheelie and Brains, whose services were turned down by the Autobots. Sam leaves for his new job interview.

Arriving in the uninhabitable city of Prypiat, Optimus, Ratchet and Lennox investigate a dig site where construction workers (who wear special suits) have uncovered a mysterious object resembling a giant pillar. Suddenly, they are attacked by a huge Decepticon named Driller. Some of the construction workers are killed as Optimus orders Ratchet and the humans to retreat, while he battles the Driller. The Driller escapes.

In Africa, Megatron, Starscream and Soundwave learn of the discovery of the pillar by the Autobots. Soundwave deploys Laserbeak to attack Sam. Sam is attacked by Laserbeak, who retreats and reports back to Soundwave after being injured by Sam. Sam then heads to NEST operations in Washington D.C. along with Bumblebee, Carly, Wheelie and Brains, where he is introduced to U.S. Intelligence Director Mearing.  Director Mearing reveals that the space race in 1969 was in response to the Ark crashing on the moon, and reveals that they found a deactivated Sentinel Prime.

The Autobots intend to retrieve Sentinel Prime on a ship called The Xantium, built by a hidden sub-team of Autobots called The Wreckers. The Wreckers had been hidden from the public eye due to their abrasive personalities. Optimus Prime, Ratchet and Bumblebee use The Xantium to retrieve Sentinel Prime on the moon. On Earth, Optimus revives Sentinel Prime.

Later, Sam meets with Seymour Simmons, who has now become a millionaire after writing books about his experiences with Sector Seven. He also has a butler and assistant named Dutch. Soon Carly arrives who gets into an argument with Sam. Carly angrily leaves for a party hosted by Dylan. Following a lead, Sam and co arrive at Atlantic City, where they meet up with a former Russian cosmonaut. After a brief scuffle, the cosmonaut informs the group that the Soviet Union were the first to send cameras onto the moon. Footage revealed over a hundred pillars lying over the surface of the moon, however only five were recovered. Sam deduces that the Decepticons must have recovered the other pillars. However, he is puzzled as to why the Decepticons left Sentinel Prime unharmed. He believes that Sentinel Prime maybe the only one who knows how to use the pillars. He realises that the Decepticons left Sentinel Prime, so that the Autobots could recover him as Optimus is the only one who could revive him.

Realising that it was a trap, Sam warns Director Mearing about Sentinel Prime's value. The Autobots, Sam and co escort Sentinel Prime back to NEST operations. Along the way, the group is attacked by a group of Decepticon clones called the Dreads. In the ensuing battle, Simmons is severely injured by a Dread, while Sentinel Prime escapes.

Amidst all the chaos, Megatron awakens Shockwave who is buried underneath Chernobyl after crash-landing many years ago and causing the Tunguska event.

Soon Sentinel Prime betrays the Autobots and murders Ironhide. He reveals that he always was the key before battling and gravely injuring Optimus, and joining forces with Megatron and the Decepticons.

In Gould Estate, Sam arrives and collects Carly from Dylan's party before being attacked by Laserbeak and Soundwave. Dylan reveals that he and his family have been working with the Decepticons all along, noting that his father helped the U.S. government cover up the moon crash landing. In exchange for Carly's life, Dylan forces Sam to spy on the Autobots and inform the Decepticons about the Autobots intended plans. He also forcibly gives Sam a bracelet like device to monitor the Autobots signal.

Sentinel Prime speaks to the humans, revealing that he is the true leader of the Autobots, and his plans to mine Earth's resources to rebuild Cybertron. He also demands the exile of the former Autobots in order to avoid any conflict. If this agreement is not met, Sentinel Prime reveals he will destroy all human life with a battalion of Transformers.

Later, Sam meets up with Director Mearing and Robert Epps, who reveal that the UN has exiled the Autobots. The Autobots intend to leave on The Xantium. Bumblebee remains on Earth, disguised as an old Datsun and helps Sam get rid of the bracelet like device given to him by Dylan. The Autobots leave on The Xantium.

Having secured the city of Chicago and following a meeting between Sentinel Prime and Megatron who are starting to have a friction, Dylan reveals to Carly Sentinel Prime's intention to bring Earth and Cybertron together using the space bridge and enslaving all of humanity to mine its resources. He reveals that the pillars are what will activate the space bridge.

Suddenly, Sam arrives and attempts to free Carly only to be attacked by Laserbeak. Laserbeak is destroyed by a Decepticon tank piloted by Bumblebee, while Dylan escapes. Sam rescues Carly and the Autobots return to the city. Dylan informs Megatron about this; however Sentinel Prime reveals that he anticipated this move on Optimus' part.

As the Autobots prepare for battle, Shockwave arrives with the Driller. The Autobots quickly realise that they are powerless against Shockwave and the Driller. Carly reveals to Sam that if they can destroy the control pillar opening the space bridge, the whole space bridge will collapse, having learnt this of off Dylan. However, Epps reveals that they only have one shot left with the launcher and radios for backup.

Eventually, the Autobots are overpowered by the Decepticons and captured. Soundwave kills Mirage, and just as he prepares to kill Bumblebee he is knocked aside by a Wheelie and Brains piloted Decepticon flagship. The Autobots manage to escape and Bumblebee kills Soundwave. NEST and the Autobots then destroy the Driller. Starscream is also killed by Sam and a few NEST soldiers.

Wheeljack outfits Optimus with a jetpack just as Sentinel Prime and Megatron prepare to open the space bridge. Optimus arrives and massacres a horde of Decepticons before battling and killing Shockwave. Just as the space bridge opens, Sentinel Prime betrays Megatron. As Cybertron begins to come closer to Earth, an angered Megatron is persuaded by Carly to destroy Sentinel Prime just as Optimus battles him.

Megatron and Optimus join forces and destroy Sentinel Prime.

With their mission complete in the Middle East, Optimus commands the Autobots to head to Washington D.C, while he, Ironhide, Ratchet and Captain Lennox leave for Prypiat, Ukraine, following a lead on a recently resurfaced enemy.

In Washington D.C. Sam, now lives with his new girlfriend Carly Miller, secretary working for Dylan, a CEO of a major investment company. The pair also lives with decommissioned Autobots; Wheelie and Brains, whose services were turned down by the Autobots. Sam leaves for his new job interview.

Arriving in the uninhabitable city of Prypiat, Optimus, Lennox, Ironhide and Ratchet investigate a dig site where construction workers (who wear special suits) have uncovered a mysterious object resembling a giant pillar. Suddenly, they are attacked by a huge Decepticon named Driller. Some of the construction workers are killed as Optimus orders Ironhide, Ratchet and the humans to retreat, while he battles the Driller. The Driller escapes.

In Africa, Megatron, Starscream and Soundwave learn of the discovery of the pillar by the Autobots. Soundwave deploys Laserbeak to attack Sam. Sam is attacked by Laserbeak, who retreats and reports back to Soundwave after being injured by Sam. Sam then heads to NEST operations in Washington D.C. along with Bumblebee, Carly, Wheelie and Brains, where he is introduced to U.S. Intelligence Director Mearing.  Director Mearing reveals that the space race in 1969 was in response to the Ark crashing on the moon, and reveals that they recovered the body of a deactivated Sentinel Prime. Optimus Prime revives Sentinel Prime using the Matrix of Leadership.

Later, Sam meets with Seymour Simmons, who has now become a millionaire after writing books about his experiences with Sector Seven. He also has a butler and assistant named Dutch. Soon Carly arrives who gets into an argument with Sam. Carly angrily leaves for a party hosted by Dylan. Following a lead, Sam and co arrive at Atlantic City, where they meet up with a former Russian cosmonaut. After a brief scuffle, the cosmonaut informs the group that the Soviet Union were the first to send cameras onto the moon. Footage revealed over a hundred pillars lying over the surface of the moon, however only five were recovered. Sam deduces that the Decepticons must have recovered the other pillars. However, he is puzzled as to why the Decepticons left Sentinel Prime unharmed. He believes that Sentinel Prime maybe the only one who knows how to use the pillars. He realises that the Decepticons left Sentinel Prime, so that the Autobots could recover him as Optimus is the only one who could revive him.

Realising that it was a trap, Sam warns Director Mearing about Sentinel Prime's value. The Autobots, Sam and co escort Sentinel Prime back to NEST operations. Along the way, the group is attacked by a group of Decepticon clones called the Dreads. In the ensuing battle, Simmons is severely injured, while Sentinel Prime escapes.

Amidst all the chaos, Megatron awakens Shockwave who is buried underneath Chernobyl after crash-landing many years ago and causing the Tunguska event.

Soon Sentinel Prime betrays the Autobots and murders Ironhide. He reveals that he always was the key before battling and gravely injuring Optimus, and joining forces with Megatron and the Decepticons.

In Gould Estate, Sam arrives and collects Carly from Dylan's party before being attacked by Laserbeak and Soundwave. Dylan reveals that he and his family have been working with the Decepticons all along, noting that his father helped the U.S. government cover up the moon crash landing. In exchange for Carly's life, Dylan forces Sam to spy on the Autobots and inform the Decepticons about the Autobots intended plans. He also forcibly gives Sam a bracelet like device to monitor the Autobots signal.

Sentinel Prime speaks to the humans, revealing that he is the true leader of the Autobots, and his plans to mine Earth's resources to rebuild Cybertron. He also demands the exile of the former Autobots in order to avoid any conflict. If this agreement is not met, Sentinel Prime reveals he will destroy all human life with a battalion of Transformers.

Later, Sam meets up with Director Mearing and Robert Epps, who reveal that the UN has exiled the Autobots. The Autobots intend to leave on a ship called The Xantium, built by a hidden sub-team of Autobots called The Wreckers. The Wreckers had been hidden from the public eye due to their abrasive personalities. Bumblebee remains on Earth, disguised as an old Datsun and helps Sam get rid of the bracelet like device given to him by Dylan. The Autobots leave on The Xantium.

Having secured the city of Chicago and following a meeting between Sentinel Prime and Megatron who are starting to have a friction, Dylan reveals to Carly Sentinel Prime's intention to bring Earth and Cybertron together using the space bridge and enslaving all of humanity to mine its resources. He reveals that the pillars are what will activate the space bridge.

Suddenly, Sam arrives and attempts to free Carly only to be attacked by Laserbeak. Laserbeak is destroyed by a Decepticon tank piloted by Bumblebee, while Dylan escapes. Sam rescues Carly and the Autobots return to the city. Dylan informs Megatron about this; however Sentinel Prime reveals that he anticipated this move on Optimus' part.

As the Autobots prepare for battle, Shockwave arrives with the Driller. The Autobots quickly realise that they are powerless against Shockwave and the Driller. Carly reveals to Sam that if they can destroy the control pillar opening the space bridge, the whole space bridge will collapse, having learnt this of off Dylan. However, Epps reveals that they only have one shot left with the launcher and radios for backup.

Eventually, the Autobots are vastly outnumbered and overpowered by the Decepticons and captured. Soundwave kills Mirage, and just as he prepares to kill Bumblebee he is knocked aside by a Wheelie and Brains piloted Decepticon flagship. The Autobots manage to escape and Bumblebee kills Soundwave. NEST and the Autobots then destroy the Driller. Starscream is also damaged, but his head is collected by Megatron.

Wheeljack outfits Optimus with a jetpack just as Sentinel Prime and Megatron prepare to open the space bridge. Optimus arrives and massacres a horde of Decepticons before battling and killing Shockwave. Just as the space bridge opens, Sentinel Prime betrays Megatron. As Cybertron begins to come closer to Earth, an angered Megatron is persuaded by Carly to destroy Sentinel Prime just as Optimus battles him.

Megatron and Optimus join forces and destroy Sentinel Prime.

In the comic book adaptation of the movie, he is in it. He is with the Dreads when they attack the Autobots and humans escorting Sentinel Prime. However, this only because he was never killed in the comic book adapation of ROTF because Ravage's death to the film was a last minute addition. In the novel version of the DOTM he is completely absent, and he probably won't be in the movie.

Just thought that I'd mention that Transformers: Dark of the Moon is going to be littered with references to the Predator franchise.

Spoiler
•Seymour Simmons will be a millionaire, and he will have a butler and assistant named "Dutch" played by Alan Tudyk.
•Mirage, the red Ferrari 458 Italia, will have the ability to cloak and make himself partially invisible like Predator.
•The design of the four Dreads, the Chevrolet Suburban emergency vehicles, will resemble the Predators. They have mandibles, dreadlocks and dual bladed wrist-blades
•Soundwave will be a trophy hunting Decepticon. He will literally tear off Mirage's head in the end fight.

I just cannot stop thinking that Ironhide is going to die in DOTM. He has been seen on locations far less and locations he has been seen on fit perfectly with what's been mentioned in the plot summary. I really don't won't Ironhide to die. I'm not a G1 fan, but I really like Ironhide. After Bumblebee and Optimus, he is proabably the most well-developed Autobot in the film series. I can see why they are going to kill him off, to make the film more impactful, but come on. Ironhide is tough and a total badass.

Though riesumating Scorponok's corpse would be waaaayyy cooooleeeeerrrr.

Prime's death was pretty good. Like, the actual death itself is good. But if this makes any sense, I didn't feel any sense of loss after it happened. I liked the idea but I blame Bay's lackluster filmmaking for my lack of sympathy.

I still think that, despite the first film being better than the second, the forest battle and Prime's death was the best scene in the series so far.

Sure, I'd agree with that...to an extent. My favourite is Prime rolling out of the alleyway, transforming, posing and bellowing "MEGATRON!!!" in the first film ;D
Title: Re: Transformers: Dark Of The Moon
Post by: Nightmare Asylum on May 22, 2011, 10:30:09 PM
That was cool, too.

I think my biggest problem with the second movie is that it tries to be epic like the first one, but it does in in all the wrong ways. Instead of making it bigger in scope and tension, Bay went with bigger explosions. The first one had a bit more of a Spielberg-ian feel to it. I can watch and enjoy the second movie, but I feel like it needed a bit more input from Spielberg. For example, that shot of the Autobots landing on Earth, that was epic. Devestator tearing apart the Pyramid, not so much.

THe third film looks like it is definitely better than the second, and quite possibly on par with or better than the first. Only time will tell, though.

Bigger and louder explosions is all Bay knows, unfortunately. Even the scene where the Fallen is revealed was underwhelming. The guy is supposed to be Megs' superior yet he looks drunk and lazy when we see him for the first time.

And yeah, the artifact thing I'll give you.

F**k Bay. I give the man credit for solid action films like Bad Boys or The Rock. But his attempt to tell a cohesive narrative over the years has decreased dramatically.

In Transformers, John Voight tells the nation that they're under an alien invasion. The very next film...everyone treats it like some cover up. What did the goverment pay off all those people in LA that witnessed a massive f**king alien invasion at the heart of the city?

Yeah I know - I mentioned as much above.

But if they were going with this f**ktarded idea, at least go with a later mission that isn't so much in the public consciousness.  Everyone knows about Apollo 11, but how many people know the details or even crews of 14, 15, 16 or 17?

Entire plot revealed. Beware of massive spoilers. ;D

Spoiler
http://comicbookmovie.com/fansites/slimybug/news/?a=38010

QuoteAs I'm sure you all know, the film starts out during a battle on Cybertron, where an Autobot ship carrying something that could win the war for the Autobots is shot by Starscream, and left to drift off into space. In the 60s, with the craft lands on the moon. The entire space race is, in reality, in response to this, and moon missions are actually to bring back pieces of the Ark, as it's called (fanboy shout out). But no one ever finds the comatose Autobot in the crash vault.

Sam and Mikaela, er, I mean, his NEW girlfriend Carly, are living in Washington, D.C. with Sam looking for a job. However, after saving the world twice, he's restless and doesn't want to be in a job where he doesn't make a difference. Carly, meanwhile, works for a big art and car collector, Dylan Gould, played by Patrick Dempsey. They also have Wheelie and another obnoxious Wheelie-like robot, Brains, living with them.

Meanwhile, the Autobots are on missions around the world fighting varous human threats, along with Lennox (Epps has since retired from the Air Force) Optimus comes into conflict with Shockwave, who is commanding that big "Driller" creature from the trailers. What he's after he ends up letting go of, and Prime syas that it's impossible because it's a piece of a long-thought-lost Autobot ship.

The Decepticons on Earth, led by a very weakend Megatron, are still planning something.

Pissed off at the humans, especially Frances McDormand's character of Charlott Mearing, head of National Intelligence, for keeping this info from them, Prime demands a mission be sent to the moon with them on it. Very quickly this happens, and Prime and the other Autobots wind up on the moon, not knowing they have soem Decepticon stowawys. They discover Sentinel Prime, Optimus's mentor and predecessor, and five of these pillar things.

Meanwhile, at Sam's new job, (where John Malkovich briefly provides some comedy) Ken Jeong's character recognizes him from the TV broadcasts in the second film (apparently the only one to do so) and tries to inform him a Decepticon plot. Apparently he was being forced to help them cover something up, but wants to tell Sam the truth before being killed by Laserbeak. Sam runs to tell the Autobots, and ends up at their secret base, which Mearing is not too happy about, but at everybody else's insistence, allows him to see the goings-on.

Having taken the pillars and Sentinel back to Earth, Optimus re-activates Sentinel using the Matrix of Leadership, before putting it back in himself. The pillars as it turns out, are part of the space-bridge (fanbot shout out) which will allow whoever uses it to teleport anywhere. But they only have five pillars, the remaining hundreds are missing.

Mearing then shoos Sam home, but Sam has deduced on his own that the Decepticons have been using humans like Ken Jeong for something, and since no one will listen to him, he decides to enlist the help of former Agent Simmons in his investigation. Carly tells him he just wants to save the world again, which is true (a big theme is that Sam is going through the opposite of what he went through in the last film, now he just wants to be in the thicke of it but doesn't have an excuse like the last two tiems) so she breaks up with him and leaves to go to Dylan's party. Simmons is living high off writing a book on his exploits, but jumps at Sam's offer. They find a group of old Cosmonauts now living in the states, who they believe, like so many other astronauts, have been forced to hide something. They show them photos of the dark side of the moon, which has the remaining hundreds of pillars on it. Sam realizes tha Decepticons have known about the space bridge this whole time, and were planning on Optimus retrieving Sentinel for them, because Sentinel is the key. They must protect Sentinel.

They go and retrieve Sentinel, and get him safely back to the hangar, but Sentinel turns out to be a traitor, and kills Ironhide and the Twins with this corosive acid gun with turns them into slag, and runs off with the pillars.

Sentinel believes that the Autobots would never have won the war, so he find himself forced into an alliance with Megatron, to bring about the peace swfitly. All that tiem ago, Sentinel was on his way to meet Megatron on Earth, with Starscreams pursuit an apparent ruse, and both he and Megatron (remember Megatron crashed into the arctic) were waylaid.

Now their plan is complete and they activate a hidden army of Decepticons buried in the moon all these years and are able to transport them to Earth. With a giant army, they then decide to go into hiding for a bit so the plot can progress.

With an army that seems ubeatable against nine Autobots, the human's response is to give up and let them suck their planet's resources. The Autobots are asked to leave the planet, and they get on a ship to do so.

Meanwhile, Sam goes to Dylan's party to make up with Carly, but once there discover, of all the humans the Decepticons have enlisted the aid of, Dylan is the biggest. He kidnaps Carly and puts a little Decepticon on Sam, telling him to discover if the Autobots are planning any attacks, and the bot will record what goes on around him, and if he disobeys, Carly will die.

Sam goes to see the Autobots off, finding Epps working at the base they're on, and asks them if they're planning anything, managing to be subtle enough to tip Optimus off. Optimus says they're just leaving, and they do that, but their shuttle is shot down mid-air by Starscream, and all the Autobots are thought dead.

Sam then convinces Epps to help him track down Dylan and rescue Carly. They discover they are in Chicago, and so them and a bunch of Epps's mercenary buddies go there.

It's then, however, that the Decepticons decide to lay waste to Chicago, just cause they feel like it. This gets most survivors out of the city so we don't have to worry about collateral damage in the big climax.

On the outskirs of the city, Epps and company seem to think all hope is lost, but the Autobots show up, surprise! It was all a ruse and they escaped from the shuttle! They all head into chicago for a big melee as Sam and Epp's team attempt to rescue Carly, and Megatron and Sentinel set up the space bridge once more, this time to transport the entire planet of Cybertron into Earth's space, destroying Earth, but making it so they can rescue a certain amount of humans for slave labor, and rebuild their world. Wheeljack, the gadget gizmo, and Mirage, two new characters, are the remaining Autobots who die in the ensuing battle.

Carly is rescued, and the others try to blow up the space bridge beacon from afar, but their plan fails as that building goes down, as seen in the trailer.
Sentinel gets pissed at Megatron, telling him he doesn't work for him, and pushes him off the building, where the weakend Megs simply can't get up.

Starscream confronts Sam, who manages to use on of wheeljack's weapons to actually kill him. As Starscream picks Sam up, Sam shoots him in the eye with this grapple gun, then sticks a bomb in his chest. As Starscream flies away, he goes kablooey.

Wheelie and Brains manage to sneak aboard a Decepticon ship and use it to destroy a lot of their enemies.

Optimus fights and kills Shockwave, using his laser blaster to take down the beacon. The main piece of it falls in front of Sam, who goes for it but is confronted by Dylan, who fights him. Dylan gets shoved in front of the thing, which distintigrates him. The army guys come and blow the little contraption up, just as Cybertron was starting to materialize.

Meanwhile, Optimus fights Sentinel, and is losing big time, until Carly, while the Sam and the guys are off in the above paragraph, goes over to the fallen Megatron and teases that now he'll just be working for Sentinel. It works, and Megs gets up and fights Sentinel with Optimus. Optimus takes his acid gun the he used to kill Ironhide and the Twins, and uses it on him.

And here's where things get really stupid: Megatron then says that he wants peace, and Optimus allows him to take all the remaining Decepticon forces on a journey back to Cybertron.

Amidst the ruins, Sam and Carly, who in the middle of the battle were finally able to tell each other "I love you," (tell me if THAT doesn't sound familiar) are sitting next to Bumblebee who produces a gasket ring and forces Sam into unwittingly proposing.

Optimus's closing monologue: In any war, there are calms between the storms. There will be days when we lose faith. Days when our allies turn against us... But the day will never come when we forsake this planet and it's people. For I am Optimus Prime, and I send this message to the universe: We are here. We are home.

THE END.

So I guess the DotM novelization is out, and a lot of people are saying, based on the book, that this movie should be much better than the first two. One review on Amazon stated that it even changed the way the person looks at Optimus Prime.

'S not the point.
The existing Transformers films work because they have humans in it. A lot of the audience needs to relate with the humans.
A Beast Wars Movie wouldn't give that chance.
And only hardcore fans would watch it.

Not to mention the characters would look ridiculous if the designers used the Bay-style design in creating them.

If a Beast Wars movie was made then I'm pretty sure that Bay will likely have nothing to do with it.
Title: Re: Transformers: Dark Of The Moon
Post by: DoomRulz on Jun 01, 2011, 08:02:08 PM
What I mean is, given how the TF looked in Bay's films (his own design ideas), a similar approach might be used for the sake of keeping it the same.

I'm thinking a few during credits scenes, like the first two had. But knowing Bay, after the credits the whole world will blow up. It is the last movie, after all.

I liked the new TV spot. But Sam's chihuahua better be in the movie, too.

Yeah, the chihuahua was better as a solo act in the first one. The second dog was added in the movie for nothing other than humping. At least the chihuahua actually helped with a bit of the plot Transformers.

EDIT: I just realized the dog in the video as Mikela's dog. Wonder how they're going to explain that...

EDIT 2: New Linkin Park Music Video, and it gives us our first (I tihnk) good look at Megatron.

The Autobot with the Ferrari 458 Italia alt-mode, previously named Mirage.... is now called... Dino.

It's a homage to the son of Ferrari's founder. It was also the codename of the 458 while they were designing it.

Did it?

He had the dogs pain pills on him in the junkyard. That gave the cops another reason (on top of the "stolen" car) to take him in, and thus they got the recording of him mentioning the car being alive.

It wasn't necessary, but it did do a little bit of something. More than the second dog in ROTF, at least.

Well, its Bay's last film. If there is a fourth, he won't be directing. At least, that's what he said.

And as for Fox leaving, Bay said it was because of a disagreement they had. Megan said she just didn't want to do it anymore. And today Shia said this:

For some reason I'm not as pissed off as I should be. I think the name Q suits the Mercedes Benz-E550 considering its role as the Autobots inventor and its robot mode design. But I'm disappointed for the former not being called Mirage. I always thought that name suited the character.

First off, the Fallen was a obscure char. When I first heard it I thought it was about the dead being avenged. The term 'revenge' is one of the most overused things for a sequel. Couldn't it have just been TF2?

I would love to see a re-edit of Transformers movies where they remove most of the human scenes, watching the first two back I think it could be done without ruining the story. Hmmm?

Why do these movies have really awful subtitle names. Revenge of the Fallen, Dark of the Moon. What the hell? Was this translated from japanese to chinese and then into english?

Dark of the Moon I agree with, but what was wrong with Revenge of the Fallen?
First off, the Fallen was a obscure char. When I first heard it I thought it was about the dead being avenged. The term 'revenge' is one of the most overused things for a sequel. Couldn't it have just been TF2?

Bumblebee is an obscure character and look at him now. I haven't seen Revenge used in many movies.

Stinger was just his on-set nickname before his regular name was applied/cleared for use.

Blackout from the first movie was called
Soundwave
Grimlock
Vortex
Devastator

and

In all fairness, most of the characters in these films wind up pretty irrelevant. If you're a robot and your name isn't Optimus, Bumblebee, or Megatron, you're most likely screwed for screen time anyway.  >_>

In all fairness, most of the characters in these films wind up pretty irrelevant. If you're a robot and your name isn't Optimus, Bumblebee, or Megatron, you're most likely screwed for screen time anyway.  >_>

Yes, it has been designed to conceal half of Megatron's face that was blown up by Prime in ROTF. In the novel, he has small transformers resembling magggots moving in out of his face and slowly repairing the damage and by the end of plot his face is almost fully restored.

Plus, did anybody catch the shot of Bumblebee throwing aside Soundwave in the Linkin Park Iridescent music video.

It's pretty much WFC with a movie veneer. If your experience with WFC was a pleasant one, then you'll probably like this one. If you're one of those players (like me) who seemed beset upon by frequent connection issues and horrible game-breaking lag, then it's more of the same.

As long as you don't mind losing Escalation mode and individual faction campaigns.

Or don't mind Shockwave never speaking or transforming.

Or the campaign being crazy-short.

I wouldn't call any of those movies intelligent fun; just fun. Maybe some aspects of Men In Black, but the others... not so much. Just because something isn't insulting your intelligence and comprehensive ability like Transformers doesn't make it 'intelligent', really.

I think this is BS.
Michael always does this when some one questions him about something, it always turns out to be some one else's fault.

And if this is true then i lost a lot of respect i had for Spielberg.


Why are people backing Fox on this? People are turning this into a Jewish/Nazi thing instead of a business thing. If an expendable actor/actress is talking shit about the director, that's bad business. She wasn't important to the story at all. If she's causing trouble, she doesn't belong on the set. Simple.

Hope you are talking in general because i didnt say anything about Nazis or Speilberg being Jewish.
How i saw it she wasnt simply trashing the guy she just said that she didnt like how he worked on set vs what she saw outside of the set. It seemed like she couldn't have a personal opinion about the guy. Which..... funny enough... makes Speilberg seem like Hitler.

She turned down a free tour of the pyramids, and never showed up to a dinner held in her honor by the king of Jordan.

You'll have to excuse me for not feeling bad for her when her attitude bites her on the ass.

I was talking in General. There are lots of large companies that would fire an employee for publicly dissing their superior. It's not good for further business and it creates difficulties and tension on set. She wasn't the Ripley of Transformers, she was eye candy, thats it. Getting rid of her won't hurt the film, but will help the set. Seems like an obvious decision to me.

Even my friends who like the movie agree that the final battle was terribly shot, but what did you think of the forest fight? In my opinion, despite the first being a better film, that was the best scene between the two. It was the one fight that actually tried to make yo care about who won.

The forest fight was the reason I saw the movie at all. Thankfully it was the most well shot fight I'd seen in either film. I could ALMOST always tell what was going on. Other than that, the action was pretty dull.

I watched season one of G1, it was cool, but you would be lying if you couldn't tell they were just 20 minute toy commercials. And the movies are two hour toy and car commercials with explosions and models to bring in a little extra cash.

The Fallen was in the comics, he was the original thirteen Transformers created by Primus before betrayed his creator. I saw nothing wrong using the Fallen and my only issue with him was that he could have lasted longer in the film.

Yep, but the good ol' nolstalgia goggles blind them from that. People talk about how bad advertising is, but that's all Transformers was originally. The movie existed purely to sell more toys.

A lot of 80's cartoons created characters to sell toys. Look at TMNT and He-man for example.

Total film just gave it a 3/5. RT considers it positive.
The verdict in that review is that it's better than T2 but not as good as T1, and they don't like the Megan Fox replacement.

I grew up as a kid with G1 being my most beloved thing in the world. I went back and watched them again from the start and TBH I couldn't get through that much. Some things are best left in your minds as fond memories, and to revisit will often taint it. I think it was smart for the movies to move away from G1. You could never do it the same and the purists would only bitch even more that it was trying to rip off G1 but got so much wrong blah blah blah. Too many people expect far to much from these films. If they could go into and take it for what it supposed to be, they might actually enjoy them.

I forgot about his fight with Bonecrusher; he did kick ass in that scene. I understand that Megatron needs to be a bit stronger, but a fight is boring when one person completely dominates the other. The one thing ROTF did right was even the playing field a bit. The fight between Prime and Megatron in the forest was great because both could hold their own.

It felt too one sided still. As it's been said, Megatron absolutely demolished Prime in the first film, then Prime went on to whoop 3 deceticons at once until Megatron came up from behind. I'm just sooking because I'm a Megatron fan.

As far as the action goes, I could see every headbutt, every lunging knee and every other martial art movie they pulled off perfectly. I really didn't find it that hard to follow. The fights in AVPR were 100 times harder to follow than these. Not that that's saying much.

We can cover up giant robots on the moon.

Just don't ask us to cover up an affair or a dirty picture. We can't seem to get that right.

Haha. They did a great job at covering up the Mission City battle, and went as far as to change the city's name to Los Angeles, just so no one would make the connection with the giant robots :P

I forgot about his fight with Bonecrusher; he did kick ass in that scene. I understand that Megatron needs to be a bit stronger, but a fight is boring when one person completely dominates the other. The one thing ROTF did right was even the playing field a bit. The fight between Prime and Megatron in the forest was great because both could hold their own.

It felt too one sided still. As it's been said, Megatron absolutely demolished Prime in the first film, then Prime went on to whoop 3 deceticons at once until Megatron came up from behind. I'm just sooking because I'm a Megatron fan.

As far as the action goes, I could see every headbutt, every lunging knee and every other martial art movie they pulled off perfectly. I really didn't find it that hard to follow. The fights in AVPR were 100 times harder to follow than these. Not that that's saying much.

I agree. Megatron was treated rather poorly in ROTF.

EDIT: That "Carl Fake" guy is a douche.

As I seething hater of Transformers 2, I need to know something; how much of an effort do they put into an actual story structure or emotional impact from the characters' actions?

Also, is Megan Fox's character's disappearance mentioned in the slightest?

Apparently Megan dumps Shia's character, as it's mentioned in the movie. And one of the little bots calls her mean or something.

I felt an emotional impact during some of the scenes myself, I can't speak for everyone else. During one certain Autobots death, and when Sam has to say goodbye to the Autobots. I won't give away where, but it was pretty emotional to me. Maybe it's because I've liked all of the other films. I don't know.

I've been hearing that this corrects the wrong-doings of TF2, and improves upon what the series started out as in TF1, so I believe I'll be seeing this. Hopefully I like it, going in with an open mind.

You know RT is just an aggregator. You can make one on your own PC; you could even make one with a sheet of paper and a pencil if you want to do the math. You mean 'screw anyone with a bad opinion of the film.' Had the consensus been good then no doubt RT would be good to your eyes.

You shouldn't compare movie-to-movie unless you're counting the number of reviews given to each. They won't be equal. Remember, the site's only an aggregator for reaching a consensus from off-site reviews.

That's not reflective of RT's function as an aggregator. YT is very useful; its users are usually assholes. Same for RT. The like/dislike bar is as useful as IMDb - anyone can spam it. With RT you'll get a collection of professional reviews from multiple sources. I'm not saying that the majority is always right, but their opinions should certainly be weighed if they come in such force.
Title: Re: Transformers: Dark Of The Moon
Post by: Keg on Jun 28, 2011, 07:41:07 PM
Any review site aggregator shouldnt be taken as gospel but sites like Metacritic and Rotten Tomatoes are generally spot on. Sure youre gonna have alot of unfair reviews in there and some douches just trolling with their reviews but when a film has hundreds and hundreds of reviews and the majority of them say the film is crap, then im willing to bet theyre probably right.

I really liked the first film and I enjoyed Revenge of The Fallen even though it was bloody awful to be honest so im looking forward to this. If its getting mixed reviews with some at either end of the scale then it probably is alot better than ROTF which generally just got universally panned.

RotF was chock full of jokes that weren't funny, action that, aside from the forest fight, didn't really carry and weight and you hardly got to actually see, a bunch of robots whose role in the story was meaningless, an ending that felt incredibly rushed and anti-climactic, and just... no.

The first movie tried to be a movie. RotF tried to be a collection of pretty pictures and action scenes, and even failed at that.

Like failing?

ROTF, even from an action stand point, fails compared to the first. The film literally stops dead after Prime dies, and for an hour its nothing but National Treasure: TF edition. Then when it finally gets to the final action scene, it becomes too focused on stupid shit like transformer testicles. Megatron and Starscream stand around, Prime is still dead, and the only fights are with Decepticon red shirts. The only fight I can actually remember is when Bumblebee fought some guy. That's it. At least in the first, the final battle focused more on the actual transformers.

Except that there are no critics there. It just takes reviews from around the world and uses those to see what the general opinion is. RT itself doesn't do reviews. Seems kinda pointless to get mad at them. Sorta like getting mad at the news for reporting a forest fire.

The Twins weren't completely terrible. The were funny at times, but mostly were just stupid. They shouldn't have been main characters. I would have much preferred Ironhide and Rachet make the journey with Sam, Bumblebee, etc. The Twins could sty behind and be occasional comedy relief with funnier jokes.

And the balls, like most of the other sexual jokes, were completely out of place and not funny at all.

The Twins weren't completely terrible. The were funny at times, but mostly were just stupid. The Twins could sty behind and be occasional comedy relief with funnier jokes.

Hmm? I'm not saying I loved them, just that they didn't need to be completely cut. Just toned down and funnier. And on screen less. :D

Well ,in that case, the concept of comedic characters isn't completely pointless, just these "comedic" "characters".

Maybe if Bumblebee could talk, he could be a little funny every once in a while.  ::) I don't see why he couldn't talk in the first place, or at least in ROTF, considering he was fixed.

His more subtle comedy in the first one was the best comedy in the series purely based on the fact that he didn't say anything. The car stuff? The best.

The blackbots with stereotypical black voices were just embarressing... Jazz? C'mon, what a stupid-ass character. Guy goes on the internet and becomes Blacksloitatiotron.

Megatron and Optimus were always cool as shit, and that's how the the Transformers should be. I'm not saying they should all be totally un-funny, there were some funny lines from the more serious ones like the Medic one (forget his name) saying "The boy's pheremone levels suggest he wishes to mate with the female..."-- now that was pretty funny, and the character wasn't a complete f**k-up face-palm inducing Transfarcer.

Yeah, Rachet's line about mating in the first one was hilarious, but then Sams mom's joke took it too far. And ROTF took it even farther ::)

I'm hoping for less, or at least better, comedy in this one.

Might see this tomorrow.

My main problem with movies like this is that while I want to just enjoy the mindlessness, the filmmaker inside of me usually forces me to notice the deficiencies. That happened with Battle LA. Usually a movie that is mostly good I can forgive, but a movie that just has one, albeit large, drawing point just diminishes in my mind.

I was pleasantly surprised with this movie, and actually found my self pulled in by most of the plot. The Autobots seem to have a more solid role in this one, with more development.

He's just an honest moviegoer who doesn't insult anyone (unlike you) and just acts like that in his videos. And I like his style, since most video reviews tend to bore anyone to death. I can't see how you can consider him a douchebag.

i felt very disapointed with the villains in this movie , concretly with megatron. i was waiting for a badass motherf**ker and i saw a poor megatron tired and boring.
i didnt like movie ending because was a little confuse.
but this movie is far better than 2º part
but not too many better than the first movie.
i have to say that simmons, Simmons' assistant and  J. malcovich are awesome in the film.
they are f**king awesome XD

Title: Re: Transformers: Dark Of The Moon
Post by: Alienseseses on Jun 29, 2011, 07:31:16 PM
Just saw it.

My thoughts:

I liked it a lot.
The story was serviceable enough for a Saturday morning cartoon, which is basically what this is. The dialogue had a lot of ridiculous one liners ("Decepticon Punk", "Class dismissed") but hey, it fits the material. The premise was fun and coherent, more than I can say for the second movie. The characters are two dimensional for the most part, but I can't say I didn't like most of them. I didn't like Simmons, Jeong's character or the two mini bots, but I liked the CIA character, Malkovich, Tudyk (who gave me one of the biggest laughs in the movie), the guy who likes Carly, heck, I liked Carly. I didn't think she sucked at acting, I thought she was perfectly fine. LaBeouff annoyed me a bit, because for a good portion of the film he acts like a dick to everyone, but he sold it enough and got better as the film progressed.

I was finally able to tell the robots apart, mostly. They were given adequate intros and the action scenes were actually coherent. More on that for a second.

Nimoy has so much fun with his role. I bet he cracked up in the recording studio shortly after giving his 'needs of the many' speech. He, Cullen and Weaving probably had a blast.

Megatron got the shaft, but I was good with it. Making him more important just because he has a fan base would not fit the movie. He's worn out and a shell of his former self who still thinks he's on top. I liked that.

Now, the action.
Almost every action scene was completely memorable. I want to see the movie again just for the action. Bay calms down with the shakey cam to give us some breathtaking visuals. The flying scenes were great, the Starscream stuff, the building stuff. It actually had weight, too, because there were high stakes. There's a scene where it looks like everything is going to end badly, and we actually care. Well, at least we're supposed to, and if you've seen a movie like this you know how the scene's going to end, but it works anyway.
The audience applauded 6 times, and each time deserved it.
The 3D was unbelievable too. Good 3D... it's been too long.

I liked the music also. It was like a mix of the first Transformers soundtrack and the music of Inception. I'm talking about the OST of course. I can't remember the pop songs on the soundtrack.

The bad now:
The humor in the first half, while not as intolerable as the second movie, did reach irritating levels at times, though to its benefit the humor mostly works.
Sam's parents, the mini bots, Jeong and Simmons annoyed the heck out of me. They try to hard to be comic relief, but they're just annoying.
The laws of physics are disregarded most of the time. While the action is good enough to let you forgive it, I couldn't help but think several times "No way they survived that" and "That's just too convenient." But that might just be me.

All in all, it's the best Transformers movie. The first one, I only liked the first two thirds of it, before it loses all comprehension. The second one, I didn't like at all. This one, I'm behind it all the way, annoying moments aside.

Overall, I'd give it 8/10.

And see it in 3D.

What annoys me is that while there are plenty of reasons to have negative opinions about this movie, a lot of people are saying they don't like that it's too effects driven. While story should be king, visual effects are still art made by people, and if they elicit an emotional response from audiences, why are they bad? Besides, if a story is driven by visuals, then the visuals are in fact telling a story...
Of all the reasons to not like a movie like this, the visuals aren't the problem.

Feel free to disagree. I'm open to hearing other opinions about this, as it can lead to some interesting discussion.

Ok. Just saw this Last night.

Awesome movie!!!!


I just have a few problems.

Number 1.

Where the hell was Megan Fox!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!


Number 2.

Where the hell did some of those Autobots come from? Did they just come down from space between movie 2 and 3? Also, some of the Autobots from the second movie weren't there. wtf?


I just gotta say this though. There are a few things about the Transformers movies that I really love.

1. The total badass action and fight scenes. Which are quite frequent.

2. The humour. Humour is just scattered all throughout the films. Even more frequent than the action sequences.
The humour at times is not family friendly which I quite like. Just makes them film even better.

I'd pay to see the movie with a blind fold on so long as I didn't have to listen to those f**ktards voices.

I'd pay for a remastered bluray of Trans2 if they'd digitally replace their goofy ass treasure troll lookin' mugs and replace them with a blank Cobra Commander face plate and redub their voices.

So I just got back from this...

Everything that can be said has already been said. So I'll just say my personal thoughts. Yes it is DEFINITELY better than RotF, and in my personal opinion the best in the series. Oh,and the 3D? Don't skip out on the 3D for this one the extra price is definitely worth it. This is definitely not going to win any awards (except for probably the visual effects, sound effects, and maybe soundtrack which as usual kicks ass), but if it did win any it would be for funnest movie of the summer. Watch it with a group of friends because thats how I did it,and it was so much better than it should have been. It gets a 9.3 as an initial score, it'll probably change the second time I see it when I go to Colombia in a few days but I doubt it. 8)

Yeah, Megatons death was a bit underwhelming. As was Starscreams.

Michael Bay and Shia Lebouf have said they wont return for a fourth movie but considering how much moolah these films make I cant see the studio just leaving it at that. They'll just get another director and come up with a new story with a mostly new cast like Pirates of The Caribbean did.

Nothings confirmed but its safe to assume a fourth film will come.

also, i didnt understand this:

after sam killed starscream, he and lennox landed on Bumblebee, and a few scenes after that, bumblebee was captured.

So I've seen the film twice already even though I found it to be pretty meh the first time around.  The seond time I struggled to stay awake during parts of the film including some major action sequences. However, during this second screening I encountered some supermassive plot holes:

Spoiler


That Watch

Early in the film we are told that the major cities and places of importance are surrounded by "energon detectors" in order to alert the authorities when a decepticon is near a major military base or city. We see these detectors in use in several instances throughout the film, yet when Sam is forced to wear a Decepticon spy watch that is listening in to his every conversation never is an alarm raised despite the fact he walks through military command centers and attends a NASA/ Autobot space launch, with the spy bot listening in on every conversation. Surely that whilst on the brink of war with an alien race places such as military command centers would up their security rather than decrease it.

Also, when the Autobots are seen to "die" in the spacecraft why does the decepticon spy watch suddenly jump off and run away? Surely it would be useful for the Decepticons to have ears on the inside, listening to military plans of action. Hell, why did it even leave Sam alive? The thing was tapped in to his nervous system! I mean, shit, Sam's only the guy that's helped prevent Decepticon world domination on TWO occasions!

Optimus' Plan

So Optimus' big plan is to pretend to leave Earth and thus somehow let us humans see just how much the Autobots are needed. Now this is not so much a plot hole but just unnecessary stupidity. I mean Optimus simply hides for 15 hours allowing the Decepticons to not only conquer a major city but completely eradicate the majority of it's inhabitants. In teaching the humans a lesson by "letting them see" Optimus pretty much allowed his enemies to kill thousands of innocents and root themselves in the environment. Hell and if you think he did it for the element of surprise why does he practically allow the Autobots to announce their presence immediately by rushing to rescue a single human life when he should be destroying the Stargate that would ruin the Earth? I mean this is the guy that sat back while thousands died just simply to teach the humans a lesson and now he's up in a fuss about some guys girlfriend he doesn't know. What a super plan that turned out to be.

QuoteHowever in Transformers 2 a long dead Megatron was brought back to life using the spare parts of other Transformers without the aid of the matrix-of-boris, so why is it so imperative for Optimus to use this device and revive Sentinal? Why not simply sacrifice one of the tens of transformers, that litter the moon, for spare parts and revive him using the same means that were used to revive Megatron in TF2? That would have allowed the Decepticons to invade earth decades before the Autobots even arrived!

What allowed them to do anything with those spare parts was the fragment of the All Spark they stole early in the movie. So nope, just pasting random parts on Megatron didn't do the trick. They needed the All Spark's "magic touch" in order to make the resurrection work.

Yeah, it was a vital point I was missing. I was missing it since I simply haven't seen the second film since it's cinema release and have no desire to put myself through that film (or this one) again. Cheers for the heads up. I still think my other two points stand.

So I just got back from this...

Everything that can be said has already been said. So I'll just say my personal thoughts. Yes it is DEFINITELY better than RotF, and in my personal opinion the best in the series. Oh,and the 3D? Don't skip out on the 3D for this one the extra price is definitely worth it. This is definitely not going to win any awards (except for probably the visual effects, sound effects, and maybe soundtrack which as usual kicks ass), but if it did win any it would be for funnest movie of the summer. Watch it with a group of friends because thats how I did it,and it was so much better than it should have been. It gets a 9.3 as an initial score, it'll probably change the second time I see it when I go to Colombia in a few days but I doubt it. 8)

i agree with everything you said.

I loved it. It was a huge step up from the other two. I feel like Bay & Co listened to the fans as much as possible and incorporated what they could into this without changing the feel of the franchise. For example, the action is so easy to follow. Every robot is identifiable. No racist stereotypes. Minimal stupid humour. No roboballs.

Truth is if you hated the others with a passion, save your money. If you thought they were decent or good, this movie is for you. Megan Fox's replacement made me forget all about her. Like a lot of people my main gripe was

Spoiler
Megatron. What the f**k did he do in this movie. I was so excited every time he was on screen only to see him do nothing. The only noteworthy thing he did was save Optimus only for him to turn around and get all Predator on Megatron's ass. Guess it just annoys me as a Megatron fan.

Are there plot holes? Yes. Does it all make perfect sense? No. Is it completely over the top? Absolutely.

If you were expecting any answers different to these then you don't belong in the cinema. Go see it for what it is, and enjoy Bay's last Cybertronian visit.

yeah thats what i thought first but then i realised that humanity kinda had it coming for casting out the auto bots, now i know that when i put it like that it sounds like optimus is kinda evil, but i noticed all sorts of thins after the ovie, especially with optimus. He has grown, and he is more mature, more like a soldier. he dont have time to mourn the death of his best friend (ironhide) and whn Magatron asks if they can work together, he takes an axe to his head. he is tired of negotiating, of being the wise and kind. he is just pissed of and he have had enough. and maybe it just took time to get from the atlantic ocean to california, or maybe he wanted mankind to face the facts and actually have to rely on him. there were many characters that had matured, especially sam. he kills a transformer all by himself, and in the end, he actually straight up murders a guy. great movie, unexpected depth.

I am a person who appreciates the continuity of a series of films, knowing that Transformers script has its holes.
you can not skip chapters at will by the simple fact of seeing things unnecessarily, I repeat it before:
if you want some things sound like Chinese like :
Matrix of Leadership can revive other transformers for example
is your opinion
but if you are looking a "perfect" continuity you MUST watch all movies.

Just saw this yesterday at the 7:30 showing. The movie is the longest out of the trilogy, with a total running time of 2 and a half hours. I was expecting another ROTF, just a film where you're just watching explosions and robots fighting, no real plot or emotions. I was pleasantly surprised. My only real problem was the ending. It just sort of...ends.

But, all in all, I loved it, and I'm eagerly awaiting the DVD/Blu-Ray release.

QuoteShe explained: "I first met Michael back in 2009; it was on the set of the Christmas commercial for Victoria's Secret. I remember the first thing Michael said to me - before he even introduced himself or asked me my name — was 'Can you walk?' And I looked at him like, 'What is this man talking about? Yeah, of course I can walk.' And then he proceeded to tell them to get me in the car, and then I was driven - I mean, honestly, I want to say it was about half a mile out in the desert. I kept thinking, 'This is a joke, right?' And the car dumped me in the middle of the desert.

All I was wearing was a bra and underwear and a big, billowing, black, floor-length cape and high heels. And he says, 'OK, when we shout action, you're going to walk!' And I assumed I would be doing this in several stages. They yelled action, and the car sped off back to set, and I just was like, 'Well, what am I supposed to do?' So I walked all the way back to where the camera was standing, which took me — I would say a good 10, 12 minutes, and it was a proper runway stomp — on salt flats; it was like 100 degrees, felt like fire. I remember walking back and being not impressed by the whole thing. I was pretty pissed off afterwards; I just looked at Michael, and he goes, 'I guess you can walk, then.'"

That doesnt mean a new director couldnt come up with a new story with new characters. Pirates 3 seemed final but it was easy enough to do another. The money this series makes, I would be more surprised if they didnt make another film within the next 5 years. If they do they'd be wise to leave it for a few years first.

Spoiler


Optimus' Plan

So Optimus' big plan is to pretend to leave Earth and thus somehow let us humans see just how much the Autobots are needed. Now this is not so much a plot hole but just unnecessary stupidity. I mean Optimus simply hides for 15 hours allowing the Decepticons to not only conquer a major city but completely eradicate the majority of it's inhabitants. In teaching the humans a lesson by "letting them see" Optimus pretty much allowed his enemies to kill thousands of innocents and root themselves in the environment. Hell and if you think he did it for the element of surprise why does he practically allow the Autobots to announce their presence immediately by rushing to rescue a single human life when he should be destroying the Stargate that would ruin the Earth? I mean this is the guy that sat back while thousands died just simply to teach the humans a lesson and now he's up in a fuss about some guys girlfriend he doesn't know. What a super plan that turned out to be.

He has grown, and he is more mature, more like a soldier. he dont have time to mourn the death of his best friend (ironhide) and whn Magatron asks if they can work together, he takes an axe to his head. he is tired of negotiating, of being the wise and kind. he is just pissed of and he have had enough. and maybe it just took time to get from the atlantic ocean to california, or maybe he wanted mankind to face the facts and actually have to rely on him. there were many characters that had matured, especially sam. he kills a transformer all by himself, and in the end, he actually straight up murders a guy. great movie, unexpected depth.
[close]

Spoiler
If he has grown at all then it's into a murderous tyrant. Normally "growth" and "maturity" imply that he considers himself above the insults of few. Hell, the guy spends the entire film talking highly of humans and about the chance that they deserve but sits back and allows thousands to die to teach a few politicians a lesson about tact. These don't sound like the actions of a great leader imo. And once more he will sacrifice thousands of innocents but destroys any element of surprise when he allows the Autobots to go on a side mission to save the single life of some guys girlfriend he doesn't know when he should be focusing all his effort on, y'know, destroying that stargate and saving the Earth. I mean, that comes off as pretty conflicted to me.

He'll sacrifice thousands to make a point but wont risk one to save the Earth.  ;D

But they could have simply pretended to leave AND still made an attack on the assaulting Decepticons long before The Beef and his motley crew even arrived. But instead he and the others simply hide for 15 hours in order to teach us humans a lesson. That's pretty much his motive by the word. Why else would he say "We had to make them see" (ie. we had to make the humans see life without the Autobots). Those are not the words of a good guy. Those are the words of a guy willing to allow his enemies to gain the upper-hand and kill thousands of innocents to make a point!

Got back from seeing this about an hour ago, it was everything I expected but so much more too.

It is certainly the best of the trilogy, and it went places I didn't expect it to go. It made me ask myself "Are they gonna do this? They are? Wow." It's pure entertainment the whole way through but there's actually characters this time, characters I cared about and rooted for, and characters I wanted to see gone.
Obviously not everyone is gonna see it like this but I did, I loved how huge they made it, they sent it out with a massive Bay-sized-bang and I thought it was brilliant.
I thought it ended a bit abruptly but other than that, not many note-worthy complaints at all. The cinema laughed when they were supposed to laugh and the atmosphere was brilliant when the tension rose, and they clapped when

the Autobots returned
[close]
which was brilliant. The mood was just fantastic the whole way through and I'm certainly anticipating the Blu-Ray.

Quotewar scenes is not too many important if that was the important transformers saga would be like "the godfather"
We're comparing two movies that aren't even in the same genre or decade because....


i'm not comparing -.- i'm telling that in THE  best movies ever there are not only booms, there are argument and people talking .
if you like just explosions and for that reasons you are thinking that the 3º is better than the 2º ill give u a present
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4WuFU6XV_o# (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4WuFU6XV_o#)
and you wana a comparation ?ok indiana jones 4 for example too many action and cgi for a cience fiction movie , because yes , indy 4 is an adventures science fiction movie you know , this is the weaker movie on indiana jones saga , and is a "present movie"
you only need to ask yourself, when someone dies in transformers you are sad ?
you feel sadness?
i didnt feel it
its a great action science fiction movie , better than 2º because in this movie we have not  got an bionicle super powerfull telepatic villain , because sam parents are not drugged as the 2º , becaus twins autobots are dead !! yes , we dont need then , we have wheelie and brain . they are better and funniest, and a better script ( without a perfect ending and villain, i think im megatron's fan, i would like a "super assasin megatron") with an historical argument like apolo's mision.
YES,  I SAY IT,
TRANSFORMERS 3 DARK OF THE MOON IS  FAR BETTER THAN TRANSFORMERS 2 THE REVENGE OF THE BIONICLE.

So I've seen the film twice already even though I found it to be pretty meh the first time around.  The seond time I struggled to stay awake during parts of the film including some major action sequences. However, during this second screening I encountered some supermassive plot holes:

Spoiler


Optimus' Plan

So Optimus' big plan is to pretend to leave Earth and thus somehow let us humans see just how much the Autobots are needed. Now this is not so much a plot hole but just unnecessary stupidity. I mean Optimus simply hides for 15 hours allowing the Decepticons to not only conquer a major city but completely eradicate the majority of it's inhabitants. In teaching the humans a lesson by "letting them see" Optimus pretty much allowed his enemies to kill thousands of innocents and root themselves in the environment. Hell and if you think he did it for the element of surprise why does he practically allow the Autobots to announce their presence immediately by rushing to rescue a single human life when he should be destroying the Stargate that would ruin the Earth? I mean this is the guy that sat back while thousands died just simply to teach the humans a lesson and now he's up in a fuss about some guys girlfriend he doesn't know. What a super plan that turned out to be.

But we aren't shown to "have it coming". The only people that are shown to have any kind of disdain for the Transformers are the politician types and a single chat show host (Bill O Reilly of all people). That's it.

And that doesn't make him the hero the film very much wants you to believe he is, nor does it excuse his actions. It very much makes him just as much an enemy as the Decepticons themselves. When your hero sits back and openly allows mass murder to simply make a point that makes him a dick, not a hero. Also, his actions are incredibly inconsistent. One minute he'll sacrifice thousands of lives to make a point and the next he's unwilling to sacrifice one in order to save the planet. I don't even...

I get the feeling that no matter what hole I uncover in Optimus' actions you'll still reply with something like "Woo yeah, Optimus is awesome cause he allowed the death of thousands and displays an inconsistent logic! Woo!"  :P

'This battle is protracted mercilessly beyond all reason, at an ear-shattering sound level, with incomprehensible Autobots and Decepticons sliced up into spurts of action with no sense of the space they occupy'

'If you pause to consider for a second, not one of these characters is actually required in the conflict, which is, after all, pretty much between the bots'


This sums up the whole trilogy.

This guy makes me laugh. Seriously. Roger Who?

Ear shattering? It's Giant Robots having a war in a CBD, it wouldn't be a fkn Charlie Chaplan dance, of course it's loud. Fork out the money for a decent hearing aid old man and maybe it can filter out some of them loud harsh sounds.

Here's the corker:
QuoteThe series exists to show gigantic and hideous robots hammering one another. So it does.
Noooooo shit. What exactly was he expecting when sat in his seat, a drama involving a power pole technician?

He goes on to say that the humans are not required for the battle that takes place.

Spoiler
Perhaps its time to hang up the gloves old timer, because it seems your decaying brain can no longer retain information from a movie that extends pass the two hour mark. Anyone that has seen the film will note the amount of decepticon deaths, including major characters, that were taken down by humans. Seem pretty important to me.
[close]

This is not a film for everyone. I can't stress that if you don't like these films don't go and see the new one because it is all that was good from the first two films with some extra goodies thrown in for your viewing pleasure.

There is a generation gap with this film that I think most old people simply won't "get" which is why this films tagline should be No country for old C*nts.

This is why film critics give me the shits. Someone pays angry trolls to give their opinion on every film that comes out with complete disregard to taste in genre.

Most critics have an inflated sense of self in which they believe that their opinion actually matters. Perhaps it does to the lowest denominator in the gene pool that are completely incapable of forming an opinion, and rely on others to validate their existence out of fear of being ostracized for not conforming to the norm.

If I wrote a review on Hana Montana or something along those lines, any 14 year old girl that took on board what I had to say is a complete moron, because I'm not the target audience and those sorts of films do not appeal to me in the slightest. That's why we have the term "target audiences". Having an 80 year old nobody reviewing a film that is based on Robotic toys from the 80s is completely redundant and to me has no weight whatsoever.

Then again, that's why I completely disregard critic reviews and see films that appeal to me, then decide once the credits roll if this is a film for me.

He was a half a star away from giving Cars 2 a four out of four, a movie which is already being said by many as being Pixar's worst...

Anywho, being the cinephile I am, I'm going to see this again, as I do with every film, to see how it holds up. And honestly, I'm pretty excited to rewatch it. I'll probably go sometime next week with my old man, who's a big fan of these films

For a guy thats seen so many movies are you honestly trying to tell me that you've never watched a film and left your brain at the door? You've never been dazzled by the visuals, felt a quiver in your stomach from the audio? You've never seen a translation from your childhood and thought "wow that was awesome!" or are you trying so hard to be a critic that you need to conform and hop onto the "f**k Bay" bandwagon. You don't have to like this film. No one has to and I can understand those that dont. But don't go and see it knowing you won't like it only to come and trash it to people who did.

If you do go and see it, be a real movie critic with you're own brain and form your own opinion about it. If you go with a certain expectation of what this film will provide then perhaps you need to manage those expectations.

You give a lot of reviews around here mate, dont fall into the trap of forming an opinion before seeing the film based on "respected" critics. You're a big boy now mate, time to fly from the nest.

No, I don't think I have seen a translation of a film from my childhood that I thought was amazing, not of the top of my head anyway. Yes I have left my brain at the door for many films in recent years and many of them are just very average despite that, without trying to hark back to the old days but I have seen many films where the brain was left in the car and they are now cults or classic but that's down to use of much imagination and craftsmanship, I/you appreciate the film so much more because you know what your looking at has been made/sculpted/built etc.. carefully by people and its real (key word), the cgi monster does nothing for me thus many new films rarely do anything for me either.

On occasion I see a film that does impress, said before but 'Priest' impressed me as it showed allot of nice thought/design work and it looked very sharp indeed, nice and 'Blade Runner-ish'. From what I heard and saw I would of put money on it being crapola.

Bandwagon? no, you think that because I'm one of the only people here who sometimes gives negative reviews for many of the big films which of course stands out, thus you think I'm trolling or being miserable and old hehe. Dare I say that its actually many of you guys that jump on the bandwagon I think, the bandwagon of simply liking a flashy new film because everybody else does? everybody says its cool, it must be good because its got lots of explosions and cgi in it. Nothing wrong with liking a film like that but some of you guys seem to love anything and everything that comes along, you need to see past the flashy showboating cgi at times.

I do think its an age thing though to a degree, when I was in my teens I liked many films that now I think are just rubbish, many Jim Carrey, JCVD and other action/fantasy films I used to own and watch all the time but nowadays there's no way I would own them or watch them as often.

I didn't know there was a 'f**k Bay' bandwagon but he's not really impressed me other than 'The Rock'.

Oh and I form my opinion of the new TF film simply from the previous two hehe this is how I'm pretty sure I know what I'm gonna see BUT I will still go and see for myself and if there is anything I like I will say so but you know when you kinda get a hunch about something ;)

But to come here and quote a man who's completely out of touch with what this film is trying to achieve shows that you agree with his point of view before seeing it to make up your own mind, which I would call bandwagoning hehe.

I wish I had. I might actually see it again at IMAX just to see the big screen. The 3D is nicely used as well, not pop up in your face usage. Enjoy  ;D

Saw it in 3d. Actually really liked it. The story is better than the first two but not great. But for once the film never really irritated me like the first two often did(especially the second). The climax goes on for a pretty long time, but that can be a good or bad thing.

Just watched this and it was less than I expected. Lame humor and some decent robot action. It was better than ROTF, but not quite up there with the first movie. Carly was a decent replacement for Mikaela and she was smoking hot (except for when she was starring mindlessly into the air).

As been pointed out already, Optimus behaviour was kinda f**ked up. If he wanted the element of surprise, maybe he shouldn't have wasted it the way he did. Not to mention his comment at the end ("We will never abandon these people and this planet", or something like that) didn't really go well with his earlier actions.

I didn't like how they were cracking jokes at the end of the movie. Yeah, don't mind all the people that got vaporized or your friends that just died. Just having a fun time, right? Bay said that they had learned a lot from the second movie's mistakes, but I guess that didn't go a long way. At least the Twins where gone and the parents cut down to a short amount of screen time.

I would rate this 6/10.

The editing kind sucked in parts, had a lot of lame humor, but better the the 2nd movie.  So did any one else fill like Dark of the Moon kind made the second movie kinda make less sense than it already did.  Like correct me if I am wrong but didnt they want to kill the sun in the second movie so why would they do that if they were planing for 50yrs to take over the earth in Dark of the Moon?

Just saw it and I must say, it had its ups and downs. Basically it was two movies mashed into one film.

The first half was semi-decent, nothing brilliant or amazing, but your normal cheesy hollywood flick.

Then the second half gets down and things start getting pretty exciting. I must say, visually I saw some stuff that really looked better than many things I've seen before on screen. There's so much badassery that at some point you just end up staring at the middle of the screen, hoping you have caught the angle of the screen that has most action in it.

But then the most pathetic thing happens that I've probably seen in a long time in a movie (apart from all those logic holes that many people just mentioned before in the thread):

Spoiler
The ending is just utter nonsense. What I mean it's written and shot terribly. The movie ends like 10 seconds after Sentinel Prime's Head is cut and Optimus is about to give us an epic monologue... but instead he barely says one sentence and before the camera can zoom out properly you already see the Credits... I was totally thrown of the track. Just ridiculous. I was waiting for some kind of "this is a joke" capture... so stupid!!!

Seriously, what does this movie have that AVPR doesn't?  The whole movie is pretty much guns, shooting, explosions; there's like no character moments at all.  AVPR at least has room in the movie for other stuff besides violence and gore; it has as few character moments (albeit you guys may not think much of them), but at least it gives you time to breathe between battles and doesn't make the entire movie just 1 endless fight.

AVPR:
Can't see anything.
Retarded Predator.
Stupid physically deformed Aliens.
Idiotic wooden characters.
Crappy, annoying dialogue.
Set on Earth thus creating a plot hole the size of Nebraska.

ROTF:
Bad story.
Fallen looks sh*t.
The twins.
The last fight scene.

The cons of AVPR far outnumber ROTF's, but not only that, it crippled a franchise. Transformers passes over ROTF and continues on, the magic of the entire franchise is that it continually reboots itself.

Stupid physically deformed Aliens?  I thought you said you couldn't see anything.
Idiotic wooden characters?  Not as bad as in Dark of the Moon.
Crappy, annoying dialogue?  ^
Set on Earth with a plot hole? It was a government cover up.

ROTF & Dark of the Moon
Bad story
Decepticons look like shit
Annoying autobot personalities
Finale fight scenes
Shia Labeouf
Bad dialogue
Corny and unbelievable character moments
Too much action, practically no suspense

All of AvP:R's were either boring cliches (oh come on, nerdy pizza boy after the hot blonde with the douchey jock boyfriend?) or half-assed copies of characters from the Alien and Predator franchises with poorly placed and acted references. Give me one example of an original character from that movie.

Fine, have it your way; at least AVPR's acting wasn't as bad as Skyline's.

I'm gonna chime in here...

I loved AVP-R when it first came out. I had been looking forward to it, and I enjoyed the heck out of seeing these rubber monsters fight each other. Obviously, it was a stupid movie, but I enjoyed it anyway because it was catered to me. I don't usually like obsessing about the designs (granted, the aliens were relatively bad looking) and it worked for me.
On repeat viewings, my enjoyment of it has faded.
Partly because of the fact that it is, in fact, a bad movie.
Partly because of the fact that Predators blew it out of the water.
Partly because I've grown as a filmmaker myself.
But mostly because of the internet's reaction. Reading enough people whining about every little detail really kind of ruined it for me.

Predxeno has a right to an opinion. We all disagree with it, fine. But stop tearing him apart for it. That's just ridiculous.

That is not the point, and you failed to see what I meant, or just chose to ignore it entirely. What I am saying is that just because something is better by comparison doesn't mean it is good as a whole.

I saw it.

Vast improvement in tone from the last. The Decepticons felt dangerous this time, not like bufoons.

The direction is also much better. You can tell Bay has grown accustomed to shooting these films. There's a confidence in the way he films his action here that wasn't present in the last two. No shaky cam. Whether this was because of working with 3D or not, who knows.

The score is easily the best of the three. There is an extra layer up epicness added; it contributes to the improved tone.

The film has way too much filler. All the stupid comedy with Malkovich and Jeong just pad out the running time. This dragged the film for me. It's a shame, if all those comedy scenes had been removed, we could have gotten a tighter and more engaging film. Instead we get another bloated mess. A legitimately good Transformers film exists underneath all this fat.

Once again, the Autobots lack characteristics outside of Prime and Bumblebee. What the first film has over both these sequels is that it gave more time to the Autobots.
Spoiler

Megatron got completely shafted this. Here he's just a moper, a shell of his former self. I can understand where they could be going with character wise, but it's not played out at all. He went out like a total bitch, didn't even stand a chance. This goes for Starscream and Shockwave as well.
[close]

Overall, a much better film than ROTF. But I still like the first film the best.

The effects were first rate and the performances fit this type of movie. Everyone was just having a blast. I loved how Prime had a more darker edge to him in this film though. He shot first and asked questions later.

YES!! now these ads are miles better than the actual effects in the films!!! I always thought that, especially the one where the robot iceskates...remember?

The robots are perfect, not overly busy and unrecognisable, they look solid and they look like what they have transformed from, they look like transformers dagnamit!

Not really that big of a deal to use stock footage from other films very briefly to merge into your own shots. It probably happens alot more than we realise. What is a big deal is that Bay has now had a scene like this in three of his films.

First in Bad Boys II with the cars rolling of the back of the lorry, then in The Island with the huge metal train wheels (I think thats what they were) bouncing off the truck into the road. Now hes done it again with robots causing the carnage. Plus there was a short scene in the first film on the highway which was similar.

I dont think hes running out of ideas he obviously just really loves a bit of mayhem on a motorway and its becoming a bit of a signature for him alongside the rotating, cameras at the sky, characters looking up shots.

1aircraft carrier scene from t1 i heard that is from pearl harbor
2when hundreds of decepticons rarrive to earth in t 2 he shows the scene of t1 where we onle see 4
(optimus rachet ironhide and jazz arrival to earth scene) and others i saw but now i cant remember it .
in t3 you know in this case MB copy paste his strong point, he is always critized because his films have only booms scenes.
if those booms scenes have copy paste what we have ?
??? :-\ its my little opinion like an spectator, i just would like that MB showed all of us his talent  without recourse to scenes of movie file and used in clearly recognizable i thing that is not necesary T3  could have had that moment as new

Looks like I will be seeing this movie on Thursday. Late but I should see it until the new Harry Potter movie is released at my IMAX and I would have seen it by now if it was not sold out on it's first week.

Went and saw this again. Loved it more the 2nd time. These films really remind me of the popcorn action films from the 80s. Really over the top and stupid but never tries to be any different. I think the problem with these films is that they really are a throwback to those films of the 80s but many fans expect it to be a sophisticated modern action film.

Spoiler
Megatron stopping mid fight to call a truce was still a bit WTF. He could have offed both Primes and his victory would have been complete. I guess it shows an older general thats tired of the war and just wants to rule his throne. Still should have iced them both.

Perfectly said. I think with a lot of superhero movies of today, they blend story and spectacle. As an audience we've been spoiled by films like The Dark Knight and Ironman. This wasn't always the case though. Burton never captured the pain of Bruce Wayne in '89 Batman. It was dumb fun in a Gothic setting. It was darker than we'd seen the Dark Knight on screen before, but was still very campy. Compare that with the Nolan films and the characters are laughable. Batman was always a dark character that carried the pain with him, we just needed a good story to show this.

Transformers was a toy commercial. Nothing more. Stories were fleshed out as they went along to sell more toys. The 86 movie wasn't "deep" with emotional drama. It killed off toys to make way for new toys. People go into these films expecting some profound message and to be rocked on a cerebral level. These films stick to the source material and give a dumb action flick. If thats not your thing, I'm surprised that you like Transformers at all.

The popularity of these films alone show that dumb pop corn flicks still hold their own in modern cinema. And that's something they don't need to apologise for.

Hmmm must hold my tongue here  :-X

Transformers....like 80's action flicks!!? mmm no sorry but no, most 80's flicks were dumb yes but they at least had a decent main character with REAL live action and normally for adults which was usually better, TF is just infantile with glitzy effects.

The animated TF movie was indeed very emotional for kids at the time as many were distraught at the lose of Prime (plus other favs), it was big news at the time as I recall, plus it was actually a pretty damn good animated film with great voice work. Its one of the best animated kids flicks around much like the original (and better) Ralph Bakshi 'LOTR' animated/rotoscope film.

I also believe the end of good cinema has come or its close as Hollywood has depleted pretty much all story lines and possible plots known to man, this is why we are getting remakes and reboots cos there is nothing left anymore. The comicbook genre is a lifesaver for Hollywood really cos without it there would be tonnes more remakes I'm sure, or just rehashes over n over (numerous shark, piranha, snake and gator creature flicks for example).
I know many on here will disagree but you ask anyone on the street and I bet my bottom dollar they will agree, you only have to look at the majority of films these days, that top ten for example is prime evidence....

4 superhero/comicbook flicks,
6 sequels, most not needed,

and lets be honest here..all are childish kiddie based flicks as we now have to put up with flicks for the whole audience all the time with more PG whatevers.
The only flick there with any originality is 'Rango', the only flick that is any good is 'Kung Fu Panda'.

Personally, and I know I'm alone here, but that top ten is a good example of todays cinema and whats wrong with it.



(God damn the TF cartoon f**king rocks ass, that 7min clip is so much better than the films lol!)

I don't necessarily agree that all stories/ideas have been exhausted, I just think studios are only willing to back winning horses. They seem to go for sequels, remakes, reboots and reimaginings because these generally fare pretty well and make a profit. There are plenty of good ideas out there that never see the light of day because studios deem them too risky. In todays economy I'm not surprised they don't want to take risks. There are a lot of people who can't afford to see every release and opt for the one they already know about or a continuation of a story they've already heard.

Oh and you don't see Transformers being like an 80s action-adventure popcorn flick?

Ah but thats the thing isn't it, yes to little kids these films may be good, I dunno what they think, but I'm talking about people generally above the age of around 15, anything to someone 15 and under these days will be pretty good, thats natural, the thing is TF isn't entirely based for scroats its suppose to be for everyone, hence Fox in the first two.


I find it curious to read what people think of certain films and TF has gathered an interesting side of lovers and dislikers hehe I won't say haters.

Correct again ol' boy. It's a film that is meant to appeal to kids through to teenagers and young adults. Like a lot of the 80s films too. Judging by box office figures, I'd say they succeeded...

Hmmm I wouldn't say the films you put up were for young adults, kids and teens yes. Problem is these new TF films are clearly aimed at adults too and are played out with some semi seriousness, thats whats so cringing.
Title: Re: Transformers: Dark Of The Moon
Post by: Ghostface on Jul 06, 2011, 04:21:50 AM
I would say they would be more targeted at young adults, the ones that watched Transformers as a kid. On a whole, most people in that category liked it.

I'm not talking about the collectors, the die hards or the basement film critics, I'm talking about the young adults that liked them as a child, and left it there. Grew up, and never thought too much about it. Then these films came along and brought them back to their childhood and gave them a dose of flash cars, stunning visuals, beautiful women explosions.

Not everyone over analyses films. Not everyone thinks about them to the level we do. Most viewers generally just watch the film and don't think too much about it. I think you'll find those are the people that not only enjoy the film, but have made the sequels highly profitable and successful.

id agree with ghostface on this, there is a whole collection of toy's that exists on the back of new tf movies (possibly a big reason for the design changes), aimed directly at kids, with the added bonus of selling cars to adults, and a recruitment tool for the us army (well for rotf anyhow).

the problem i have is the fact is aimed at the lowest common denominator, hence the off colour humor, and the trite storyline, it makes great business sense, its easy money, people can take from it what they want,  i watched it purely to see robots kicking the shit out of one another, on that level it was successful anyhow.

This makes more sense. I agree that it is the lowest common denominator. Its shiny cars, robots, explosions, cheap comedy, boobs, guns and somewhere along the line theres a story thrown in. I can agree with that totally. My only argument is that it doesn't hide that fact and makes no excuses for it.

In terms of the toy line, well Hasbro did have a lot to do with the production...

One reason yes, I hate the new designs accept for Bumblebee, Prime isn't too bad but thats it, the rest are unrecognisable as Transformers or anything really, can't make out where they start or finish and in battle its even worse....BUT I have pointed this out before in my reviews of the first and second films. I do believe its a major problem with the films as the designs are simply too busy and you can't tell who's who.

All my gripes are in my reviews.

Eh.. When i go to see a summer blockbuster i'm definitely not expecting deep or thought provoking sorytelling... i'm expecting to have a lot of fun and get bang for my buck... and so far... i'm not really getting that with these films... yeah there's cool action.. and i love the redesigns they gave to the robots... but other than that it's just mostly consistently annoying and BAD... am i wrong in wanting more out of my entertainment? Eh. Pirates of the Caribbean was more fun, had better acting, more memorable characters and better directing.. and was based on a Disney Ride... a f**king Disney Ride...

Michael Bay and the writer's involved in this are just lazy c**ts :D 

I've been finding the new Transformers Prime tv show to be consistently more fun and memorable than the Bay movies... .the writing in that is definitely one of the reasons why... i'll stick to that.

Popcorn flicks been around since the 50's since the giant monster movies from the 50's where just as hated as the Transformers movies are now. Maybe the TF movies will be view as cult classics in the future.

Hated? Where did you get this from?
At most they were B-movies/drive in movies/Double feature, etc, which were watched mostly by teenagers and such.
They weren't really taken seriously.And this is why they are classics now, people now take them seriously and can see the subtext of a lot of the stuff that was done.

The problem with the Transformers movies is that it's NOT considered a B movie. If i could go to a theater and pay 5 bucks for a double feature of Transformers and Super 8 i would have absolutely no problem with it. But this isnt going to happen, of course, because now B movies dont get released on theaters, B movies are straight to DVD affairs. Anything released in theaters is high entertainment and so on.

Yes this is exactly what I mean but put better hehe these new films are taken semi seriously and as said above not as B-movie fluff, quite the contrary in fact, they probably have hopes for Academy awards and Oscars for cgi effects.

To be fair I never kept up with Transformers after the early 90s so I can't comment on their quality. I do find it funny when I hear people saying the story of the films isn't up to par with the originals. The designs I can understand, because they are a drastic change from the originals.

Ha. I do agree with that about the original G1 series.. it alongside the Bay movies are guilty pleasures at best. G1 is still good fun if viewed through rose-tinted powerful nostalgia lens...

The designs on the Bay films are probably the stuff i love best about them... utterly cool looking.. if i wanted to see G1 again i'd just buy the DVD's...

Btw for those that are interested in Transformers Prime... one of the recent episodes had lots of Alien and Predator references... do recommend ;)

I saw came back from seeing it. It was good but still far from great. Better then the second movie which is not saying much and neither TF movies where great to begin with IMO. The story was good and the humor was better, the action was great but I feel like everything feel rushed and some parts feel missing in the movie. I wish the other characters like Shockwave and Megatron had more screen time instead of using screen time on useless human characters.

Transformers always been about the robots and I always wish the story should be more based around in the past three films then Sam. I mean in the G1 series, no one really watch the series for Spike or the other human characters. Decent film and I would give it a 7/10.

I didn't see the parachute fall onto his face, and I didn't think they "hyped" him up through the movie. Maybe his driller, but not him.

And, I think with Megatron, he was caught way off guard by Optimus. Optimus is usually a nice guy, and then he just said eff you and kicked his ass.

Felt rushed and simple though. Better than the second but not the first.
Almost all character deaths really sucked balls in this.

Which character deaths sucked balls? There's only one in the movie I really didn't like, and that was

Shockwave. Seriously, they spent half teh film hyping him up then he gets a parachute on him, flails around like a circus clown and dies like a bitch.
Then Megatron - I expected way more of a fight against a one armed Optimus. Also, why did he dress like an Arab in the film?

I didn't see the parachute fall onto his face, and I didn't think they "hyped" him up through the movie. Maybe his driller, but not him.

QuoteWell, before we get into the plot, can you sum up your feelings on the film for people who don't want to be spoiled?
Yes I can. I've seen a lot of reviews that compare the movie to Michael Bay dangling his keys in front of the audience's face, as if they were babies that were easily distracted by shiny objects, but that's not strictly accurate. Imagine Michael Bay staring at you and pulling out his keys once every 10 minutes for 10 to 15 seconds. After an hour and a half, he pulls out his keys and leaves them out for an entire hour. Also, the keys are now exploding.

So I just saw this. The action was fabs, as usual, the plot riddled with holes (what else is new) and the humor a bit better than in the second, admittedly. All in all, entertaining stuff.

Except the very end when
Spoiler
Prime killed Megatron in less than 10 seconds. What the f**k, Bay? The main villain of the series and he dies like that?

MEGATRON ... why ? .... T.T you are powerful ....why meg? ....why? WHHYYYYYY!!!????????

T.T im sad ...

That was before he became the "loyal" servant of a geezer, and got beat around by Sentinal and Optimus.

Actually he was the loyal servant of a geezer before the first movie even began.

I know. But we didn't know that till ROTF, did we?  :-\

This. God, The Fallen was such an awful villain and making Megatron his bitch was even worse.

I honestly don't know how Megatron got beaten so easily, he kicked Sentinel's ass in some seconds (and he was giving hell to Optimus), and then Optimus Predator's him out nonchalantly. What?

I loved the film anyway. I'd give it a 9. The plot is very well developed this time around. My only complaints are that...
-Shockwave says a pair lines in the entire damn film (one of which in Cybertronian!), is hyped up as f**k, but doesn't find the time to kick properly some ass. He just appears, looks glorious and then BAM, Optimus kills him with hate. I expected more, especially because he looked really badass (and I loved the character in the previous incarnations)!
-Ironhide is killed and not mentioned for the rest of the film... great memorial for one of the most loyal autobots mrh?
-I know the absence of Megan Fox is justified outside the film, but inside it they could've found some better excuse. I would've liked it better if Huntington was playing the same character; speaking of whom, she has a great body and on acting we're on par with Fox, too bad she ruined herself with surgery.
-The aforementioned Megatron demise.
-NOSCORPONOKHOWf**kINGWRONGISTHAT
-Where's Jolt?
And that's it. For the rest I've got nothing to say about. I liked how they made Megatron the shadow of the great leader he was. Turturro was great as always. Dino rocks. We finally get some more screentime for Sideswipe (my favourite from the ROTF cargo). Mecha Shai-Hulud was spectacular. Laserbeak was nice. And in general, I loved the film.

I think people are mistaking some of Shockwaves scenes for another deception.
Spoiler
It took all those guys with guns shooting at his face, a couple (3 I think) autobots, and a few Navy Seals as well as Prime to kill him. That was in itself awesome, but he also commanded his worm things to destroy a whole bunch of shit. He also shot Optimus out of the sky.
[close]

OZ, spoiler the death talk man.
Spoiler
And Prime caught Megatron off guard, he didn't even acknowledge Megatron's offer to join together. He jumped up in an instant, forced him to the ground and ripped off his head before he even knew what was going on.

That's why I hated him in the movie. He was perfect in the comics and laid waste to the N.e.s.t base by HIMSELF. He killed six or seven Autobots before Optimus smashed his face in.

And, guess what? He hates it with a passion for not being true to G1.

And he's calling everyone who didn't completely hate the film a brainless idiot that doesn't deserve to watch movies.

I think the sad part is he actually says he likes G1 better because "G1 isn't a big commercial for something, unlike Bay's 2 hour car ads"

My incredibly terse thoughts at this late hour.

Spoiler
Transformers: Modern Warfare.  Holy flying crap, why did they spend so much time on the near-worthless bands of soldiers running about?  How many bloody "soldiers running to dramatic music" scenes could they legally allow in one feature-length film?  They looked like Modern Warfare models, surrounded by the same nonstop explosions and completely ridiculous set pieces.

For christ's sake they even had a first-person shot of a gun firing up at a decepticon :D and the SEAL-type coming up out of the water (that served no purpose and was absolutely absurd.)  Not to mention the American flags waving around everywhere.

Michael Bay is a CoD player.   :-\

One more thing, high five if you thought they end earned the credit scene music fail of the year award.  llll/

I'll see this next week for sure, but I wanted to say I re-watched RotF a few days ago and despite all the stupid, stupid humour within it, the action was definitely better than I remember. I really want DotM to deliver.

Agreed completely about ROTF. I liked it a lot more when I rewatched it a couple weeks ago. I actually liked the "story" a little bit more, too.

And DOTM certainly delivers on the action.

Oh, is it just me, or does anyone else think the bathroom scene
Spoiler
strayed too far into ROTF styled humor? I didn't really like that scene much, despite it actually aiding in the advancement of the "plot"

Yep. The office scenes were pretty ROTF-ish but I thought the never reached that level. But they got damn close.

Yeah, the story itself wasn't crappy. Bay just ruined it with stupid humour. But I'm glad this film delivers on action, which is what I want!

Yeah, definitely. But, if you hated ROTF's humor, you will hate at least one scene in this one (I did), and probably be slightly annoyed during the first half. But it picks up.

Oh, who else loved the way
Spoiler
Sam killed Starscream? I thought it was great, and really fit his character. Only thing, I wish that Megatron and Starscream had a full fight in this one. In the first film, Megatron just seems kind of annoyed with him, then he beat him up a bit in ROTF, I wanted to see Starscream try to get his revenge a little.  :-\ Too bad Megatron barely did anything in this one...Oh well, the end with Megatron, Optimus Prime, and Sentinel Prime was cool.

Yes but it is not a master piece,
like mr wolf (pulp fiction) says:
"Well, let's not start sucking each other's dicks quite yet".

For me the movie of the year is x-men 1º class so far, they made an awesome superheroe movie with an historical basis and that magneto was simply awesome. good director, best kevin bacon that i've seen in year, and good soundtrack too, that "i prefer magneto" theme, omg.
Now im waiting for rises of the apes.

I mean, the most recent movie I recall calling a masterpiece (10/10) is The Return of the King. And that came out in 2003...

Wake up
For example:   (I will use Noland because I think all of we know him)
Last Christopher Noland's movies are masterpieces too in their genres and they're most recent that the awesome LOTR saga:         
INCEPTION and DARK KNIGHT , they are 100% original and sophisticated with awesome actors, director, and soundtracks.

(Unless we're talking about sagas. you only said the return of the king, that i love too)

Transformers 3 brings nothing new or even his own franchise, unlike X-men first class.
I just say that X-men first class has been the surprise of the surprise so far this year, but even there could be more.

The fact that his first two films were, um, decent, for not  to say the least, does not mean that the 3rd would not have been a masterpiece, as happened between Batman Begins and its glorious sequel that I assume we've all seen and left us impressed.

2 movies after, Michael Bay might have given us a lot more substance in the plot, if it's posible that Christopher Noland with Batman give us that sustance, why not with Bay and his awesome robots?

He had his opportunities and knew their mistakes, but not amended

After 3 chances, I dont forgive him, and I become more strictest with Bay , X-Men is the best year so far
That movie corrected the mistakes of others in the X-men series flawlessly

I leave here as a present an example of what will be the film Bay if nothing changes (I think all of we've  seen this video before xD)

QuoteYes but it is not a master piece

Who the f**k would expect a Transformers movie to be a masterpiece? Of course it's not!
I mean, the most recent movie I recall calling a masterpiece (10/10) is The Return of the King. And that came out in 2003...
Wake me up when someone achieves that level of filmmaking again.

Inception?
Source Code?
Sanctum?
Paul?
It's like you just started to make a joke after the first one. I'm sorry, did you just actually compare Source Code, Sanctum, and Paul to The Return of the King?

Um... yeah?  :P

Point is there have been some fan-freaking-tastic movies since 2003.

We're talking about masterpieces here. You know, perfect movies. Not excellent but perfect. And none of those qualifies. Inception and a few other films (not in that list) got pretty close though.
Inception is a master piece scarhunter92, you sould think that Inception has much merit, it is not an adaptation, but a work 100% original and complex. awesome direction, actors, plot and soundtrack.
And you have others movies too, Million dollar baby (2004), Letters From Iwo Jima (2006), and the awesome Gran torino (2008) they are masterpieces too by Clint Eastwood made after TLOTR:TROTK (2003).

Concept of Inception is no new stuff, it's the execution that is mind-blowingly brilliant. Besides, if Scarhunter thinks Return of the King is the latest masterpiece he's seen, can you guys let him be? Sheesh.

I think you do not understand the difference between these two concepts
the reality is that there are other awesome movies as good as the return of the king, i've just put some true examples.
if I put these examples is that if someone has not seen  them yet to know that they exist.
if they want to see other great movies of course

SO I was just looking at the episode list for season 1 of the original TV show (the only season I own or have seen) and the plot of this movies reminds me of
Spoiler
The Ultimate Doom, since it has humans working with Decepticons, and Cybertron being pulled in t Earth's atmosphere to be fixed by human slaves. Only difference, is that Michael bay blew up Cybertron in the movie :P
[close]

But these films arent Geewun WAHHH WAHH. Some people make me laugh, seriously. Nice find though.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lp1RidtiOs# (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lp1RidtiOs#)

Actually listen to Megatron's plan, it's just the first minute of this clip.
The 30 year old cartoon makes MORE SENSE that live action movie! It even correctly depicts what would happen when such a huge body is brought so close to the planet.

The 30 year old cartoon makes MORE SENSE! IT MAKES MORE SENSE!!!!

Not only that but go to 5:47 and see a conflicted Optimus ACTUALLY be the one that brings Cybertron to earth!
This cartoon does circles around the idiotic plot of the movie.

Quote from: Sylizar on Jul 17, 2011, 05:48:35 AM
Woke them up from the depressing sleep they've been in? I agree.

The what? 8 month sleep from the last cartoon?
There were even comics and video games being made for god's sake.

Luckily all the crying fans have those episodes to ease their pain huh?

Yeah, they have the 30 year old cartoons to point out how stupid the plot of a live action movie was so when they complain and people try to come back with, "It's based on a cartoon," they can laugh and point at how the cartoon is better put together story wise.

Movie of the year for me so far :D.

it's actually a relief to me to see some good comments about this film. i'm liking it.

Yes but it is not a master piece,
like mr wolf (pulp fiction) says:
"Well, let's not start sucking each other's dicks quite yet".

For me the movie of the year is x-men 1º class so far, they made an awesome superheroe movie with an historical basis and that magneto was simply awesome. good director, best kevin bacon that i've seen in year, and good soundtrack too, that "i prefer magneto" theme, omg.
Now im waiting for rises of the apes.

you may want to re-read my comment. i did not mention the word 'masterpiece' once. i just really enjoyed it. xmen however i didn't. personal choice. and your pointless videos, comments and quotes aren't amusing.

So I was reading about the movies on IMBb, and found a huge and hilarious plot hole from the first movie. If the Decepticons knew Sam had the glasses on ebay, why didn't they just buy them online? Surely they could have gotten the money and set up a paypal :P

I havnt seen Dark of the Moon yet but the first two films are choc full of ridiculous plot devices and inconsistencies. The idea of the glasses alone is laughable.

The biggest plot hole for me is pretty much the entire subplot of the second film regarding the matrix of leadership. At the start of the film we see the shard create transformers in Sam's home. Then this same shard brings Jetfire back to life. another piece of the shard stolen by the Decepticons brings Megatron back to life. So why the flying f**k did they have to go through all that bother to get the matrix so they could bring Optimus back to life? There was no explanation as to why the shard wouldnt work the same with Optimus or why the only way to do it, was with the matrix. Half the damn film is about trying to find a way to bring Optimus back to life and yet all that time theyve got something in their possession that should have been able to do it anyway? WTF?

When the revived Jetfire, I think the Shard merged with his spark. Same with Megatron. So it makes sense that they couldn't use that on Prime. And when it brought his kitchen to life, it was just doing the same thing it did in the first movie with the steering wheel, XBox 360, and mountain Dew Machine.

There are plenty of plot holes and problems in the series, but that isn't really one of them.

Because Sam doesn't know that the Allspark shard was used to resurrect Megatron. All he's seen it do is turn lifeless machines into wild murderous monsters. Even if he did intend to use it to bring back Optimus, his body was at NEST HQ in the middle of the Indian Ocean, with the people that wanted to turn Sam in to the Decepticons.

Transformers: Dark of the Moon


So here we are again and right from the start with the intro of 'Shockwave' I was disappointed yet not particularly surprised, moving on we are introduced to a talking 'LaserBeak' and a small troll like Autobot called 'Brains'! oh my heart sinks and we haven't even begun.

OK well on the plus side there is some nice humour in this new installment from various characters that did make me smile, Turturro as always is quality with his snappy dialog where as Malkovich adds an impressive little performance I didn't really see coming, small but sweet. Ken Jeong is an uprising star in my books and his performances have all been good so far, in his short role here he doesn't disappoint with a cracking little show, unfortunately we still have to sit through the annoying screaming and twitching of LaBeouf whose participation in these films has damaged his credibility bigtime.
As for new entry Rosie Huntington-Whiteley....well I've not seen a more horrifically bad performance in sometime, the girl is beautiful, she can pout like no ones business and I'm sure she models well but acting is clearly a step too far and should never be tried again, its actually fitting shes in this film as to be honest this glitzy overblown mess fits her pretty princess attitude perfectly. Shots of Whiteley up against super cars? check, anyone notice she's still wearing her posh high heels during the finale showdown lol!
Anyone actually asked themselves how a geek like LaBeouf's character somehow manages to get these girls in these films!? talk about fantasy! Basically the inclusion of 'bling' actors such as Gibson pretty much sum up the whole franchise.

The film gains a tad more respect with the continued talents of Weaving and Prime himself...Cullen :)  added to the gang are Nimoy and Remar, Nimoy of course being experienced in voicing 'Gavaltron' in the animated and better Transformer movie of 86.

Credit where credits due you must applaud the cgi effects, they are very impressive and look good as they screech around highways with multiple explosions going off around them, it looks faultless and along with Bays pretty direction and fetish of the military, explosions and slow motion against sunsets its a picture for sure. As before we still have the same issue as the previous films where its virtually impossible to tell what the hell is going on when the bots fight, you still can't distinguish between Autobots or Decepticons accept for their eye colour with most Transformer characters just coming across as large, shiny, whirring, clicking statues of cgi metal. The rather long finale highlights this problem by adding massive amounts of building carnage and debris into the mix making it completely impossible to make out what on earth is going on, its just insane!

I still can't stand the recreation of classic designs for the new film, the new creations they come up with for new Transformers are terrible and why do all Decepticons look like monsters, insects or wild animals!!? did I even see a 'Predator' type Decepticon with dreads at one point?

The film is overly long and HUGELY cliched (every cliche in the book), much of the film feels like a music video or adverts for super cars as Bay tries to evoke emotion but fails miserably by adding rock music over sequences of supposed trauma and 'horror' and the whole thing is sooo 'God Bless America'.

There are also so many poor sequences with questions such as how did Sam kill Starscream exactly? what was that gauntlet thing he had? how did the Sam and the others manage to get out of the skyscraper that was practically destroyed and virtually at a 90 degree angle? they just walked out of the doors it seems with no worries lol! where does Optimus and the main Autobots vanish too for most of the finale battle? and who was that crappy balding professor looking Autobot with the British accent that got executed!!? just faceless characters for killing...poor film making.

People say this is the better of the trilogy, I can't see it, its abit darker as we see people killed in this film plus Optimus being brutal at the very end but for me this is just as bad as the previous two making it hard to try and decide which is the better film, is there a better film?

Transformers: Dark of the Moon



Spoiler
So here we are again and right from the start with the intro of 'Shockwave' I was disappointed yet not particularly surprised, moving on we are introduced to a talking 'LaserBeak' and a small troll like Autobot called 'Brains'! oh my heart sinks and we haven't even begun.

OK well on the plus side there is some nice humour in this new installment from various characters that did make me smile, Turturro as always is quality with his snappy dialog where as Malkovich adds an impressive little performance I didn't really see coming, small but sweet. Ken Jeong is an uprising star in my books and his performances have all been good so far, in his short role here he doesn't disappoint with a cracking little show, unfortunately we still have to sit through the annoying screaming and twitching of LaBeouf whose participation in these films has damaged his credibility bigtime.
As for new entry Rosie Huntington-Whiteley....well I've not seen a more horrifically bad performance in sometime, the girl is beautiful, she can pout like no ones business and I'm sure she models well but acting is clearly a step too far and should never be tried again, its actually fitting shes in this film as to be honest this glitzy overblown mess fits her pretty princess attitude perfectly. Shots of Whiteley up against super cars? check, anyone notice she's still wearing her posh high heels during the finale showdown lol!
Anyone actually asked themselves how a geek like LaBeouf's character somehow manages to get these girls in these films!? talk about fantasy! Basically the inclusion of 'bling' actors such as Gibson pretty much sum up the whole franchise.

The film gains a tad more respect with the continued talents of Weaving and Prime himself...Cullen :)  added to the gang are Nimoy and Remar, Nimoy of course being experienced in voicing 'Gavaltron' in the animated and better Transformer movie of 86.

Credit where credits due you must applaud the cgi effects, they are very impressive and look good as they screech around highways with multiple explosions going off around them, it looks faultless and along with Bays pretty direction and fetish of the military, explosions and slow motion against sunsets its a picture for sure. As before we still have the same issue as the previous films where its virtually impossible to tell what the hell is going on when the bots fight, you still can't distinguish between Autobots or Decepticons accept for their eye colour with most Transformer characters just coming across as large, shiny, whirring, clicking statues of cgi metal. The rather long finale highlights this problem by adding massive amounts of building carnage and debris into the mix making it completely impossible to make out what on earth is going on, its just insane!

I still can't stand the recreation of classic designs for the new film, the new creations they come up with for new Transformers are terrible and why do all Decepticons look like monsters, insects or wild animals!!? did I even see a 'Predator' type Decepticon with dreads at one point?

The film is overly long and HUGELY cliched (every cliche in the book), much of the film feels like a music video or adverts for super cars as Bay tries to evoke emotion but fails miserably by adding rock music over sequences of supposed trauma and 'horror' and the whole thing is sooo 'God Bless America'.

There are also so many poor sequences with questions such as how did Sam kill Starscream exactly? what was that gauntlet thing he had? how did the Sam and the others manage to get out of the skyscraper that was practically destroyed and virtually at a 90 degree angle? they just walked out of the doors it seems with no worries lol! where does Optimus and the main Autobots vanish too for most of the finale battle? and who was that crappy balding professor looking Autobot with the British accent that got executed!!? just faceless characters for killing...poor film making.

People say this is the better of the trilogy, I can't see it, its abit darker as we see people killed in this film plus Optimus being brutal at the very end but for me this is just as bad as the previous two making it hard to try and decide which is the better film, is there a better film?

I havnt seen Dark of the Moon yet but the first two films are choc full of ridiculous plot devices and inconsistencies. The idea of the glasses alone is laughable.

The biggest plot hole for me is pretty much the entire subplot of the second film regarding the matrix of leadership. At the start of the film we see the shard create transformers in Sam's home. Then this same shard brings Jetfire back to life. another piece of the shard stolen by the Decepticons brings Megatron back to life. So why the flying f**k did they have to go through all that bother to get the matrix so they could bring Optimus back to life? There was no explanation as to why the shard wouldnt work the same with Optimus or why the only way to do it, was with the matrix. Half the damn film is about trying to find a way to bring Optimus back to life and yet all that time theyve got something in their possession that should have been able to do it anyway? WTF?

When the revived Jetfire, I think the Shard merged with his spark. Same with Megatron. So it makes sense that they couldn't use that on Prime. And when it brought his kitchen to life, it was just doing the same thing it did in the first movie with the steering wheel, XBox 360, and mountain Dew Machine.

There are plenty of plot holes and problems in the series, but that isn't really one of them.

It merged with his Spark? Well why couldnt it merge with Optimus's spark then? Youre just making things up to cover the fact that half of the damn film contradicts itself and renders half of the plot pointless. Also I know its doing the same thing as in the first film by creating transformers from machines. And how does it do that? By creating life and giving them the power to do so. So if a mere shard can give give life to new transformers, and revive two other full size transformers then it should have been able to do the same for Megatron. And then dont get me started on Sam going to robot heaven?

Dont get me wrong i still enjoy the film for its action, even though the plot is completely f**ked up and laughable and some of the humor is cringeworthy as f**k.

It's been a while since I last watched the film, but if I recall correctly, Sam was being searched for, he was desperate and decided to revive Jetfire to find help. He couldn't really get there and try to revive Optimus, they would've taken him.

;D Well, to be completely honest, I am a huge fan of Transformers since an early age. Beast Wars introduced me to them all - and I have a great soft spot for Robots in Disguise and Armada. The movie designs never bothered me in the slightest and I actually like them; I understand that for the audience something new was needed - after all, the movie was being done to a much larger target than Transformers fans alone are (even if 'we' are in a pretty good number), so changing them to something more modern was an understandable choice. It's not like they did it for the lulz.

Now that Bay is (probably) off the franchise, I'd love to see a more serious take on Transformers. You know, the one which centers around the actual robots and not teen problems of Shia La Barf? The one without idiotic, infantile jokes and non-actor eye candy like Megan Fox? Anyone agree?

This is where I said that this series reminded me of 80s action flicks. Todays movies are focused on darker and grittier themes with a focus on realism. Films like Nolan's Batman helped pave the way in ushering this new era of comic book movies. I think if Transformers was released in the 80s it would have been welcomed with open arms. Today's audience of fanboys demand seriousness. Although I do like this trilogy, I also prefer serious, dark and gritty films.

It's not that I hate Bay's movies because they're not dark, realistic and gritty. I hate them because the story and dialogue are always insultingly stupid. Transformers deserve better.

Just watched this. Ive gotta say im as disapointed with this as I was with ROTF.

Theres way to many new characters that simply arent needed that take away screentime from the ones we want to see. Its too much like the first film in that the major action scenes are just longer versions of what we have already had. At least ROTF put the finale in a different setting. Here we get an extended highway chase scene similar to the one in the first film and the escape and rampage of a villain in the "good guys" base. Then the ending is just the ending to the first film on a bigger scale.

And a huge problem that all three films have had is that they all end too abruptly, characters that die get piss poor underwhelming exits and in each film there are new Transformers who come from nowhere and others that simply dont reappear. At least the new autobots get an explanation of how they got there because they built that ship but if they had to do that, then how the f**k did Shockwave's giant worm thing get to earth?

Ludicrously far fetched and unneccesary subplots that are supposed to tie everything together, pointless characters, abrupt endings, annoying humor, and repetitive action.

Why then after all ive just said do I still love these films haha  ;D

That's a pretty good summary of Bay's Transformers.

Now gimme a director who isn't a childish megalomaniac. This franchise desperately needs some fresh air.

The first had a bit of a Spielbergian touch to it. There was some heart. Also less Transformers, so they all got more screen time than in the sequels. Look at the final fight in the first compared to the other 2. No nameless Decepticon redshirts, every fight is between Transformers with a name, as weakly developed as most of them are. They were hard to take out. In the sequels you have soldiers taking Decepticons out left and right.

What's the reason?
Because they didnt get the actors back? That's a silly reason.
And it cant be because they want to tie it to the rest of the marvel movies because this thing is still with Sony.

Agreed. I said it before, and here it is again. I definitely believe that RotF had a better story than DotM. The first had the most heart, and the second seems to have a bit after repeated viewings, but this one felt a bit empty when I watched it. Still, I enjoyed it, and I tihnk, like RotF, it will get a bit better after two or three viewings.

I tihnk i like them in the order they came out in, but I enjoy all three. I can't wait to do a marathon of the trilogy. I plan on exceeding the limit for amount of explosions witnessed on screen within a seven and a half hour period :P

Ahh, I see where you're coming from.

And its funny, because the Fallen wanted to wipe out humanity, but then in the next movie
Spoiler
Sentinel needed them. I guess the Fallen didn't know about Sentinel because it was a secret deal between Megatron and Sentinel, and even if he had known, he would have felt threatened by Sentinel, with him being a Prime and all. But that brings up the question, why was Megatron so willing to kill humanity with the Fallen, if he also had a secret alliance with Sentinel that involved keeping the humans alive? My take on it is that Megatron still wanted to go the easier rout using the information from the Allspark (which, at the time, was in Sam's head) rather than slave labor with the humans, but after two movies of failing with the Allspark, he decided that he had to go back and rely on his backup plan with Sentinel. If you think about it this way, even when Megatron was basically the Fallen's b*tch, he still had complete control of the situation. I like thinking about it like that.

Megatron's keeping his options open. The whole "meet up with Sentinel" plan backfired, so he went back to his earlier "deal with robot devil" plan.

I took it as the other way around.
Spoiler
I kind of felt that Sentinel was always a backup plan, and that the Allspark was his main plan to rebuild Cybertron. When he failed twice with the Allspark, he figured enough was enough, and went right to plan B, and set a trap for the Autobots where they would review Sentinel.

And when Optimus offered Sentinel the matrix, which (I tihnk) gained the powers of the Allspark from Sam, Sentinel allowed Optimus to keep it for two reasons: One, he felt that Optimus would willingly work with him when he told him about his plan, and two, he didn't exactly trust the Decpetcions, he was just working with them towards the same goal. He wouldn't really want the Matrix to fall into their hands.

With the Fallen to me it seemed that HE was the leader of the Decepticons since Megs was bowing and all that jazz. So when this whole Sentinel Prime business came out it looked like he was doing his own thing so at the end of all of this it looked like he was behaving like Starscream from the cartoon making side deals and trying to get control.

Yes, but we have obviously grown tired with it. It happens. And, the reason they used the scene was because during the scene that they filmed, a stunt women was injured. So, they just decided to re use an old scene.

Definitely. Scorponock and Ravage were definitely my two favorite transformers in the series. I loved the way they were handled, and hated seeing both of them die (despite Ravage getting an awesome Mortal Kombat death)

This film was awesome! Best action out of the entire series, good one-liners, and the humour was pretty decent. The only humour that bugged me was the washroom scene but other than that it was laugh worthy. My only major gripe was that Bay used too much slo-mo and I don't think we saw enough of Shockwave. When he's first introduced Prime makes it sound like he's a grave threat yet we barely see him.

8/10.

Agreed. I was impressed with his design as well. I just wish he had more dialogue so he would appear less like a dorne and more of character like Megatron or Starscream. I wish he was voiced by either Corey Burton or David Warner. There were a few places in the Chicago battle where they could have given Shockwave some dialogue.

Megatron was dead by the first film, too, didn't really stop the filmmakers.

Paramount maintains the series won't be rebooted for the 4th film. How can that be now that Megs is officially dead?


Hahaha I knew it, talking about reboots already lol! doesn't take long before that word pops up these days huh pathetic.

No need to be insulting. Transformers has a history of rebooting itself.

That was easier to play off though. His body wasn't ripped to pieces like it was in DotM. As for Galvatron, sounds like the best idea to me.

The thing is, In the first film, Megs just went offline after he became overloaded with power. His spark was still active, thats why the shard could still revive him in ROTF.

He seemed pretty dead to me in DOTM. Being torn apart, basically.

Plus the crux if the article is him saying he beat Tom hardy in a fight and banged Megan Fox, I'm more likely to believe in transforming alien robots.

Didn't consider that.
I was in-keeping with the grounded-down realism of the films, the original series had more of a fantasy side to it.

Seems that Francesco Quin, the voice actor behind Dino/Mirage, passed away on August, 5th.

From the Dark of The Moon FB page:

Transformers III Dark Of The Moon
(https://www.avpgalaxy.net/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi52.tinypic.com%2Fde2nbm.jpg&hash=4ed837779c91aaaed6f53d537c66ef062dfc1718)

Sad news today as actor Francesco Quinn has passed away at the age of 49 from a heart attack. Francesco was the voice behind the extremely popular new Ferrari Transformer, Mirage/Dino, in Transformers Dark Of The Moon.

Francesco was the son of actor Anthony Quinn and lent his talents to many films such as Platoon and various video games.



May he rest in peace.

I would rank the films now as follows:

3. RotF

Guess it's obvious but DotM's action was way better than RotF but lacked the spectacle of the first film.

When did this happen, exactly? I don't remember much of Shockwave, to be honest, and felt that he should have been used a bit more.

I agree. I wanted more Shockwave. It was right after the soldiers jump out of the windows and shoot the glass to land on a lower floor because they were chased out by a Transformer, launched from an attack craft. Tyrese Gibson saves himself from falling and a table falls out and passes right by Shockwave.

Yeah, I agree 100% with that aspect. But something about the series...The first one had that magic to it, that special feel. It wasn't until I saw DotM that I realized RotF had a few traces of that, too, despite not being a very good movie. The third, while better overall than RotF, fell a bit flat and completely list that magic touch.

I like all 3 as a trilogy, but with each release, it seemed to miss the mark a bit and became generic action movies with breathtaking CGI. I'm happy with what we have, but think that if they do a fourth it may be pushing.

The first film did have the most amount of movie magic to it, no doubt. RotF only had one truly spectacular movie moment I thought: when Devastator make his appearance and in DotM, there were at least two: first appearance of Shockwave and the wide angle shots of Shockwave's drilling tool cutting through the building.

The fourth film will likely be a reboot, as much as it pains me to say. I just see the series going in that direction.
Title: Re: Transformers: Dark Of The Moon
Post by: Nightmare Asylum on Sep 05, 2011, 07:18:30 PM
Supposedly, the fourth will be a sequel, but with different characters and a new director.

And and for RotF, I thought that the forest fight was spectacular. Best action scene in the trilogy, in my opinion.

But DotM had Alan Tudyk, and he was just awesome :D

Yeah, I remember thinking the same thing when I saw his eyes, DoomRulz. Everything just looked so good in IMAX. I kinda ruined my home town theater. Next summer, I'm seeing every blockbuster in IMAX.

I may catch a lot crap for this, but the TF trilogy is one of my favorites. It's up there with Star Wars and POTC.   I just love this trilogy. I hope with #4 they don't do a reboot. In my opinion they should make Lennox the main character. Have him be the General of NEST and have Epps as his #2. Bring Lennox's family back, and introduce Epps'. And Introduce Unicron. The title would be Transformers: Rise of Unicron. Have Unicron revive Megatron then turn him into Galvatron, Shockwave and Starscream, then from the left over scrap from the Decepticons, Unicron builds, Scorge and the Sweeps. Unicron orders Glavatron to bring him Optimus' Matrix. Shockwave disagrees with Megatron being the leader, and separates the group of Decepticons.

I could go on and on, cus I've fully thought out the story, but you get the jest.

This is how I will rank the movies

TF1

TF3 would have been the best in the series if Shockwave and Megatron had more screentime. I also hated when they cut into black during the whole invasion thing and Starscream's death was so stupid. I hated when they made Sam killed him.

Sorry, DR, I don't think you'll get your Dinobots. I mean, what purpose would a group of giant, robotic dinosaurs serve? And how would they blind in? Also, IIRC, they were suppose to be the Autobots sent into destroy a bunch of stuff. Well, the regular Autobots can do that just fine in this movie series.

They can always just say that they were autobots who crashed on Earth millions of years ago, took the forms of Dinosaurs, and then something happened and they remained in suspended animation until modern day when they are discovered and woken up. Its not like they would be the first characters to have their origins changed.

Also, typing that, I think its kind of funny how everything happens on Earth. The Solar Harvester is on our planet, there was a giant Transformers war on out planet in ancient times, the Allspark crashed here, the seekers were here, Sentinel Prime and the pillars crashed on our moon, and yet by the time Megatron crashes here Earth is a mystery :D

If Decpticons can get away with Scorpinox, Ravage, Laserbeak, and other four-legged animal-like Transformers, the Dinobots aren't that far-fetched. The whole robot in disguise thing only applies to the TFs that change into vehicles. And I think Nightmare Asylum has a perfect idea for their origins.

Plus, it doesn't hurt that the Dinobots are on our side. And I for one would like to think that, after the world almost ended in DotM and was saved by the Autobots, humanity may be a little bit more accepting of the Autobots from now on.

Unless, of course, this battle was covered up too :D

It wasn't until just now that one of those animal-bots actually spoke or transformed. The rest were just subservient Cybertronian wildlife. Which is fine if you don't want the Dinobots to speak or have robot modes, but otherwise...

I actually didn't mind that Sentinel Prime was the main villain; his betrayal was completely unexpected and made the film less predictable than ROTF. But I do agree that Shockwave should have been a major villain rather a minor one. He should have been the tertiary villain of the film after Sentinel Prime and Megatron.

There was a ton of stuff cut from the film. We don't know if it was filmed or not, but the novel is leaps and bounds better than the final film. Shockwave though, is still shafted and gets only 2 or 3 lines.

I doubt well get any scenes featuring Transformers, but there are a ton of scenes with the Transformers that were deleted. Maybe well see them in the pre-vis stage. Specific scenes that I'm talking about were those featuring Mudflap and Skids, and a scene with Sentinel Prime and Sam right before the highway chase.

Post by: Vecrotus on Sep 07, 2011, 10:57:30 AM
They only had two scenes in the novel. They mainly stood in the background while Optimus Prime berated Director Mearing for hiding the truth about the moon landing. There major scene took place after the Mexican-standoff. They were asked to guard Sentinel Prime with Ironhide by Captain Lennox until Sentinel revealed his defection and murdered Ironhide. Sentinel took a shot at Bumblebee, but Skids sacrificed himself and took the shot. Mudflap, angered by his brother's death, attempted to battle Sentinel only to be quickly disposed off. Overall it was a brief and wouldn't have hurt the movie if they included it.

There was no stupid comedy. AT ALL. The Twins sacrificed themselves so the others could live. Optimus mourns Ironhide (not much, but it's there.) Sentinel is a much more imposing enemy, as he can take both Optimus and Megatron in a stand up fight. Also, Soundwave is shown to be much more brutal by mocking the imprisoned autobots with Mirage's severed head.

They should have robot modes since they are Transformers but since their novelty value lies in the fact that they are dinosaurs, we probably wouldn't see much of it. And they have to have the ability to speak. They always did.

I liked the way he used the radio to talk. It was quirky and suited the character. However it was fixed at the end of the first film and then he goes back to talking through the radio again in the sequels with a simple comment from Sam saying "still having trouble with that huh?". Really? It was fixed, then it broke again and with all the amazing technology and intelligence The Autobots have they cant fix it permanently and they leave it as it is for years?

Storytelling. They muted the character who spends the first half alone with the main dude so that he (and by extension the audience) wouldn't learn the whole story all at once in the first half hour of the movie.

Then kids liked the gimmick, so they kept it.

AVPR didn't overdose it on mindless action and violence and it definitely didn't have its teenage girl screaming like a pitiful wreck the entire film.  Plus, the kiss at the end of TF3 was a bit corny; AVPR's romantic ending is a bit more realistic and much better than the one in TF3.

TF3 had practically no decent storyline throughout most of the film; it was all just shooting and crappy special effects.  Sam Witwicky spent the entire time acting like an immature teenager; attempting to defy authority and sound cool and whatnot.  The height of his idiocy was shown when he betrayed the autobots to save his girlfriend (ex-girlfriend at that).  Name 3 things that make this movie better than AVPR.

Transformers 3 is far from a good movie. It's enjoyable, but at times falls a bit flat, because it's basically the same thong as the first two but with bigger action scenes.

TF3 had practically no decent storyline throughout most of the film; it was all just shooting and crappy special effects.  Sam Witwicky spent the entire time acting like an immature teenager; attempting to defy authority and sound cool and whatnot.  The height of his idiocy was shown when he betrayed the autobots to save his girlfriend (ex-girlfriend at that).  Name 3 things that make this movie better than AVPR.
The acting is better.
The action is better.
The soundtrack is better.

And, Hell, I'll add an extra one.

The film isn't biased.

The acting is better?  How so?  As said earlier, the teenage girl (Carly) screamed like a pitiful wreck the entire film.  Sam Witwicky acted like an immature teenage idiot the entire time and he wasn't even funny.

As for the action, TF3 simply had too much action in that by the time the movie was over, a good majority of it was just spent watching robots shoot each other and explosions at all the buildings and whatnot.  AVPR had better pacing and a good half the time, the characters were actually trying to do something or get somewhere as opposed to just running, yelling, and shooting guns during the entire film.

I don't know about the soundtrack as this is definitely personal preference, but I like AVPR's much better.  Then again, I haven't heard TF3's soundtrack in awhile.  (If you really want to change my mind on this subject, post a youtube vid featuring a good song and I might agree with you [I have changed my mind before])

How was AVPR biased?  If anything, TF3 definitely is biased, I remember reading somewhere that Michael Bay's films typically don't depict women as being men's equals and Carly having practically no heroic role is just that; not heroic.

TF3 isn't a masterpiece of cinema, its a popcorn flick, nothing more, nothing less. Its just the kind of film where you're not looking for plot, just sitting down and enjoying the ride.

AVPR didn't overdose it on mindless action and violence and it definitely didn't have its teenage girl screaming like a pitiful wreck the entire film.  Plus, the kiss at the end of TF3 was a bit corny; AVPR's romantic ending is a bit more realistic and much better than the one in TF3.

What romantic ending? Which film did you watch?

I was being kinda sarcastic when I said "romantic ending", but I kinda liked the girlfriend getting shurikened at the end better than the corny/cliched ending of TF3.

Oh that, I thought you meant biased against race, religion, gender, etc.  Well, there was only 1 Predator in the entire film so, yeah, many of the Aliens had to be weaker in comparison except for the lead Alien character; Chet.  But I can't say that having an entire Decepticon army being miraculously defeated by a handful of Autobots is that much better regarding a good plot.

Yeah... no.  I actually thought it would be fun to see the characters in TF3 die in one form or another.  They were immature losers.  And how is TF3's story in any way proper?  It consisted primarily of shooting, explosions, and special effects with no ties to a a plot whatsoever.  AVPR had characters I cared about and the story was properly paced; no mindless shooting to bore one to death.

You know the characters also include the Transformers themselves. They are part of the cast as well. I'm sure a lot of people felt something when Sentinel killed Ironhide or when Que got his head shot off.

I don't see how I could care about anyone from AVPR. One character is introduced, then a few minutes later killed. At least Transformers spent sometime fleshing out its characters before killing them. And I don't see what made the characters of AVPR special. Most for poorly pulled-off cliches.

For as much as I enjoy the Transformers movies, I'm going to have to disagree with them having proper stories. Nothing ever really seems to lead up to anything important, just a bigger action scene than the previous one. The action scenes are amazing, but for the most part they lack the emotion that mas you actually care about which robot comes out alive (The only real exception is the forest fight in RotF, though I did feel bad for Que and Ironhide as well.). In fact, its almost impossible to learn most of the robots' names without googling them. And I don't think I've ever seen a series with more plot holes and inconsistencies in these movies. The characters aren't really anything special, either. There are a few likable ones, but there aren't really any complex character arcs (They could have done so much more with Sentinel's betrayal, for example).

I enjoyed the Transformers movies a lot. I own the first two and will undoubtedly be getting the third on DVD, but they definitely have a ton of problems.

I never know why they can't have the auto bots as the lead stars in the movie and give them the most screen time. People go to see these movies for the robots and not the human characters that we don't care about.

And you should care about the Decepticons, too. Not like, care about their lives and such, but care about them as characters. The only ones you ever got to know anything about are Megatron, Starscream, and The Fallen (I'm not going to count Jetfire or Wheelie because they became Autobots, or Sentinel Prime because he wasn't really a Decepticon). The rest were all just generic bad guys. Lots and lots of wasted potential, because they could have had less bots, so that when the fights came you felt you knew everyone and actually felt something after the battle other than "that was an awesome fight".

And keep in mind that I actually enjoy the films.

My beef with the Decepticons is the same with the Autobots. Unless your name is Megatron, Starscream, Optimus Prime, or Bumblebee, maybe you'll get a few minutes worth of screentime and then you'll never be seen in great detail. It was such a lousy use of other characters IMO.

Don't know why you would need to google Sideswipe or Arcee's names, they were clearly mentioned onscreen. As for the Decepticons. In the first film everyone has their name said onscreen. In the sequel things go a little bade, but Dark of the Moon fixes that problem by having a cast of five main Decepticons.

Their names were only mentioned extremely briefly -- and, actually, I don't think Sideswipe's name was mentioned in the film at all. Ever.

Besides, he had one action scene that lasted less than a minute and that was it. Bay was trying to appease as much fans as possible by putting a lot of bots in and ended up pissing them all off by doing a poor job with most of them. That's just the way it is.

I think I heard it very quickly before the Mid East outpost was destroyed in the beginning of DotM, as Prime says the Autobots help the humans solve their conflicts.

Yes it was. After Arcee failed to defeat Sideways, Lennox said "Bring in Sideswipe." After that Sideswipe makes a grand entrance.

One of the things that I liked about TF3 was that it gave us a proper antagonist in the form of Sentinel Prime. Of the three films, he is my favourite villain, mainly because unlike Megatron and The Fallen he is a complex character, at least onscreen. He is sympathetic in that all he wants to do is save his race and that he isn't just out there to wipe out humans or take over the universe.

I would've preferred it if they actually made a truce. Maybe have Prime beat Megatron but not kill him, and force him to leave earth along with his legions.

But it would leave the possibility of a fourth movie open. I think that's why they changed. Originally, Optimus would forge a truce with Megatron who would have returned to Cybertron, with the other Decepticons.

Actually, Cybertron originally would have remained intact and the Decepticon forces would have returned to Cybertron. This ending can be seen in the comic adaptation and novel.

Post by: Nightmare Asylum on Sep 22, 2011, 07:34:27 PM
They said they want to do another trilogy, so the best bet would probably be Unicron, and have him as an overarching villain for the whole trilogy. In TF4 he resurrects Megatron and makes him in to Galvatron, and Unicron himself isn't seen very much. His presence carries over through the next two movies, and ultimately concludes in the sixth, maybe with a temporary alliance between the Autobots and Decepticons as they work together to destroy Unicron.

I think they should just let this live-action movie franchise die.  After the last 2 films, I really don't want to waste any more money on any new films by Michael Bay.  If they still want to do live-action films, then reboot the entire genre in this series.

Bay said that he is unlikely to return, as is Shia. But they also don't want to reboot it. So its likely that they would be sequels with a new director and about different characters.
But I kind of agree about letting the series rest. They are entertaining, yeah, but with each release, the films have just fallen flat.

I'll still be picking up DotM on DVD as it was certainly enjoyable, but still flat. I think I'm a bit bummed out from all the Transformers stuff lately. That being said, I would definitely still go see TF4, should they make one.

I question whether it was really necessary for Optimus Prime to execute Sentinel Prime the way he did.  Sentinel was defenseless and they could easily have taken him prisoner, that way they could have still had access to his intellect in case they needed it in the future.

Whatever, but I think Michael Bay made the same mistake the Strause Bros did with AVPR (referencing the film, not attempting to respark an old debate); just cause it looks cool onscreen doesn't mean it should be put in the film, it needs to make sense.

But it made sense. Sentinel betrayed the Autobots basically, and allowed thousands of decepticons to come on Earth. Not to mention he killed one of Prime's most loyal Autobots. Optimus is not exactly known to spare enemies either.

I'm just saying that it made no sense to kill Sentinel Prime, yes he did horrible things including the murder of Ironhide, but he deserves to rot (or deteriorate) in prison for it, executions are things that the Decepticons do (like how they did with that other autobot, Quo, I think his name was) and falling to their level on this isn't exactly the proudest moment for the Autobots.

Wasn't Demolisher going to die anyway?  And there's a big difference between the 2.  Demolisher was a Decepticon that definitely was going to strike again, Sentinel Prime may have been easier to contain as he could be reasoned with (especially since the Decepticons are going to be demoralized a little after the death of their leader).

Still, there's a difference.  According to the EU, NEST's mission regarding Decepticons were to destroy them, probably cause there was no way to contain them and they were very violent and unsubduable.  However, I get the feeling that Sentinel Prime could have been taken in peacefully.

2. I'll have to watch that again, if I ever want to put that piece of crap in my Blu-Ray/DVD player again.

3. He was wounded and he used to be an Autobot, definitely not one of those rampaging unthinking killing machines that the other Decepticons were.  Even til death, he did what he did not because he enjoyed it but because he sincrely believed it was for the best (obviously, that ideology was wrong).

That's true, but I should think that they have a moral code very similar to ours from what we've seen of them.  There's also the fact that since they're machines, they also should have anticipated that having Sentinel alive and prisoner to the Autobots may save more lives than if he's dead, especially since he seemed somewhat remorseful at the end.

Well, he's quite clearly spooked by the fact Optimus just owned Megatron. Before Megatron saved Optimus' ass, Sentinel kind'a ripped off his arm. He wasn't stopping or feeling remorseful.
Also uuhhhh. Rewatching that sequence. Megatron's death feels so motherf**king unnecessary. His coming and Sentinel ass-kicking feels so wanted, so heroic, felt almost like a redemption on his part. He didn't even go and kill Optimus straight away, he wanted a truce. Damn it, they should've went for the original ending.

Whoa, whoa, let's not get ahead of ourselves here.  I wouldn't compare Sentinel to Hitler or Bin Laden just yet.  Certainly Sentinel was horrendously misguided, but he never believed in things like racial superiority or anything like that, he didn't side with the Decepticons cause he believed they were superior to the Autobots, he just believed that the Autobots had no hope of winning the war so he made a compromise with their enemy.  Also, he may not have seen humans as equals to the Autobots which was wrong, but then again many humans don't treat animals with as much respect as they would treat themselves.

I would agree...but Megatron yells "This is my planet!" while attacking Sentinel. Megs was being a worm and trying to save his own steel. If it had been presented like it was in the novel (Helping Optimus up and having them fight side by side) it would have been even more messed up if Optimus killed him. Also, how is Sentinel not comparable to our worst? He was trying to wipe out an entire intelligent race.

At that point of the film the audience is supposed to have a massive hatred for the character (EH KILD IRONHIDE); killing him is a massive payoff.

This.

It's the only thing that made the death of Ironhide somewhat bearable...

Why not just make the drones strip mine another, uninhabited planet of its resources, then repair Cybertron themselves? Are the Decepti-drones really that useless that they need humans to do it?

You should help write the sequel.

Ah, remembered wrong then.
Well, he's quite clearly spooked by the fact Optimus just owned Megatron. Before Megatron saved Optimus' ass, Sentinel kind'a ripped off his arm. He wasn't stopping or feeling remorseful.
Also uuhhhh. Rewatching that sequence. Megatron's death feels so motherf**king unnecessary. His coming and Sentinel ass-kicking feels so wanted, so heroic, felt almost like a redemption on his part. He didn't even go and kill Optimus straight away, he wanted a truce. Damn it, they should've went for the original ending.

Megatron would never agree to a truce. He couldn't agree with Sentinel's ideas, that much is crystal clear when Carly confronts him. What makes you think he'd work with Optimus?

EDIT: It appears the Walmart exclusive is just for a bare bones Blu-Ray version of this film (Blu-Ray disc only), the Best Buy version is the one that has the Blu-Ray, DVD, and Digital Copy along with the Virtual Gift Card so I recommend the Best Buy exclusive to those who are interested.  I just pre-ordered it. (Yeah, and I know the irony of me getting this film since I hate it, but I have a small interest in this franchise and I'm a sucker for in-store exclusives)

I might pick it up then, but I was reading on Wikipedia that there's a Collector's Edition that will be released in December.
Title: Re: Transformers: Dark Of The Moon
Post by: predxeno on Sep 27, 2011, 02:10:25 PM
It also claims that the Walmart exclusive version has 3 extra minutes of footage.

EDIT: Also, I think that Collector's Edition is exclusive to the UK since I don't think America uses PAL anymore if ever.  Does it? ???

QuoteDuring Hasbro Investor Day, it was announced that the DVD and Blu-ray disc will be released in the fourth quarter of 2011. The NTSC home release for the film is scheduled for September 30, 2011. A Blu-ray 3D version of the film will be released in "the coming months," most likely a release in December 2011. A Walmart exclusive edition of Transformers: Dark of the Moon will also be released on September 30, 2011, with three more minutes of footage. The PAL DVD and Blu-ray Discs of Transformers: Dark of the Moon (Trilogy pack, Blu-ray 3-D combo pack, and Collector's Edition) will be released in November 2011.

EDIT 2: A different pic of the Walmart release:

(https://www.avpgalaxy.net/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimages3.static-bluray.com%2Fmovies%2Fcovers%2F29363_large.jpg&hash=69f720d59c52fbb890b0a825656d20cd7f40d322)

This is all f**king great.  Which version do I buy?  Do I get one of these exclusive versions or do I wait for the Collector's Edition that I don't even know will be in the US?  I think right now I'll still get the Best Buy edition for the free $25 gift card and if I change my mind about the actual Blu-Ray, I'll sell it on eBay and try to get more money cause it's an exclusive.

Were it anyone other than me, I would say wait until the December release. But I'm just going with the first one on DVD, not Blu. I enjoyed the movie, but not enough to fork over the extra cash for Blu. And bonus features don't really mean much to me with this franchise.

I'm waiting until December as well since I want to see the extended cut. I feel rather let down from TF3 and hoping it was a big improvement over the last one like Bay said. Yeah the story was better but I feel like the enjoy the action in the second film better and still think the first movie was the best.

Pretty much completely agreed. DotM just fell flat, even more than RotF did. Still very enjoyable, but very flat. RotF still had a bit of the charm from the first one left, but I tihnk the series is pretty washed up now. I'll check out a TF4, should one come out, but the franchise really needs to head in a new direction after essentially seeing the same movie three times, each on a larger scale than the previous one.

I agree that the movie did lack the charm of the first two movies. It is probably because the writers of the first two films, Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman didn't work on this film. However it was an overall better movie than the second.

I pre-ordered this stupid movie from Best Buy and guess what?!?!  They completely forgot to send me the Virtual Giftcard for $25 that they promised, considering that one of the reasons I bought this movie from them and at all was just for that gimmick, I am seriously pissed. >:(  They say they're working on fixing this problem, but I have big doubts on whether I'm ever going to get this pre-order bonus that was supposedly promised to those who pre-ordered this film.  I'm starting to think that Best Buy never had this Virtual Gift Card thing in the first place and simply placed an ad for it to attract more customers despite whether or not they'd actually be able to deliver on their word.

Spoiler
QuoteSkids dives in front of a shot fired by Sentinel Prime at Bumblebee, saving bee's life at the cost of his own. This causes Mudflap to fly into an Unstoppable Rage and charged Sentinel, dodging the traitorbot's shots, knocking him off his feet, and starting to try and beat him to death. It does little harm to Sentinel, but it does give the others time to escape, and as Sentinel blasts him Mudflap continues to attack him relentlessly even as he is literally disintegrating. Sentinel even mentions that Mudflap died a death worthy of an Autobot.

I agree. The story telling of these movies has been the declining. The story telling of the third movie is even worse than the second. The only reason I liked it better was the because the story itself was a lot more coherent and interesting.
Really? I thought the story had drastically improved!

The story had improved, but the way they told the story hadn't. The movie still had stupid humour, unnecessary human scenes and there was still too much human vs. Decepticon action in the final battle rather than Autobots vs. Decepticons. While the plethora of Autobot characters was more defined in this movie, it still carried over some disposable characters. Even though Dino is my personal favourite new Autobot, he was so disposable to the plot, that they could have easily given the majority of his scenes to Sideswipe and a few to Que.

The Transforemrs Dark of the Moon Blu-Ray comes with a $10 off coupon to the 3D Collector's Edition release.  I haven't opened mine yet, should I do it or should sell it on eBay?  I don't really plan on watching the film, I simply got it cause of the Best Buy exclusive packaging (something they actually managed to deliver upon), but I could still use the Digital Copy.

Upon giving it some thought, it would have been a much more interesting twist if Shockwave had transformed into Sentinel, similar to what he did in Transformers: Animated. Have it explain that Sentinel was the real leader when he left, but Shockwave slipped onto his ship, killed him and took his form.

I have a question; has anyone noticed a scene in TF Revenge of the Fallen where the Constructicons destroy the smallest of themselves for his parts in order to resurrect Megatron while they are underwater?  I can't remember seeing that scene on DVD, but it was depicted on the FX channel.  I know sometimes TV channels show movies with deleted scenes and I just want to know if this was one of them.

That scene is present in all versions of the film. Funny thing about that scene, is that the Doctor orders the Constructicons to kill the smallest one amongst themselves, yet the Transformer they kill is the second largest.
Title: Re: Transformers: Dark Of The Moon
Post by: Nightmare Asylum on Oct 12, 2011, 09:43:43 PM
Another funny thing is that, when the Decepticons go back up to the surface, the sonar reads one extra robot. So unless the doctor guy is big enough to be picked up on the sonar, which I highly doubt, that makes no sense :D

It was a really cool scene, though. I'm a sicker for underwater stuff like that. And Ravage swimming looked great.

I'd say he would have looked the same, just larger and more bulky. I actually quite liked how they depicted him in film. I just wish he would have got a proper fight with the Autobots such as Optimus, Bumblebee, Ironhide, Sideswipe or Ratchet instead of Mudflap and Skids. The fight though was good.

Small mistake, apparently it's 32 seconds and to answer your question; not especially.  There's nothing really notable and I honestly couldn't tell the difference really between the Big Screen Edition and the regular edition.  Here's a quote from someone who can explain it better than me.

QuoteHowever, the IMAX version of the movie runs 32 seconds longer than the regular theatrical release. (Early reports of the difference being 71 seconds were incorrect.) The forest battle accounts for 22 seconds of that, and the Devastator scene has 10 extra seconds. I have watched these two scenes back-to-back numerous times. Quite frankly, I simply could not tell you what was added to the longer version. There's no extra dialogue, and no shots stood out to me as being new. I'm not going to say definitively that there are no new shots, simply that none stood out to me. This will require a literal frame-by-frame dissection. I think this may be a case where a bunch of shots have been extended very briefly, rather than any major new additions. I would not consider this longer running time to be a compelling selling point in and of itself.

This question isn't really about DotM, but about the 1986 movie. I still haven't seen the film, and really want to. But I've only seen (and own) Season 1 of the original show. That is also my only real experience with Transformers stuff, other than the Michael Bay movies. I know the movie came out after season 2, but is that required viewing to understand or appreciate some aspects of the movie?

He's red and has a windshield, but no tires or other fire truck parts, markings included. There's not very many cases of robots not looking like their Earth forms on Cybertron.

Saw this over the weekend. It was terrible. Just, terrible. Almost as bad as the second one.

I find it incredibly depressing that this is one of the highest grossing films of all time.

Well, let's see. I hated every single one of the characters, the story made no sense, the action had no continuity and was uninteresting, the jokes were flat and unfunny, the twist made was completely nonsensical, and it was WAY TOO f**kING LONG.

Exactly. It's fun a movie, nothing more. It's movie about frick'in robots fighting for crying out loud. How serious can you make it? You've got to have some fun this stuff. And I thought this was a darker movie which I liked.

Yeah, I actually kinda understood why Megan Fox left the series; all I could think about during the film was "Oh my God, shut that bitch up!"  I mean it's ok if it's a kid who goes off screaming like Newt in Aliens and Molly in AVPR, but if a teenager starts screaming loudly and nonstop as opposed to actually doing something that could help one survive, all respect for that person seriously goes out the window.

I actually liked how they made Sam's story come full-circle.

1st movie: A boy who thinks he's not ready to do what he ends up doing.
2nd movie: He now wants to continue his normal life but he's sucked back into the conflict.
3rd movie: He realizes a normal life isn't enough for him after what he's been through and is willing to help save the world once again.

Unless they give him a huge pay check. Most actors say that they won't be back but end up coming back because of the money ;). Look what happen with Sigourney Weaver and Alien Resurrection (She said that she won't be back for another movie but she end up coming back because of the money).

Shia is just an angry little child who just screams and rages through out these movies whenever he doesnt get his way or is attacked. He never learned how to toughen up or learn humility. He just got a huge ego boost with each movie.

They're not just films though. Transformers is an entire franchise. G1 is remembered, so is G2, Beast Wars, and so on. They are the first live-action interpretations of a classic childhood television show and toyline. They will be remembered as it all installments of the Transformers franchise are, even if you're not a die hard fan.

a promotional picture for Transformers, is this past decade's iconic sex symbol image up there with the famous shots of Farrah Fawcett, Raquel Welch, Jane Fonda and Marilyn Monroe, but it's just absolutely true, and it's to the franchise's credit. It would be remembered for, if nothing else, that image alone. Something that insignificant.

Pussyface actually brings up quite a good point in the post above when he speaks of it as how it'll be remembered as part of the entire Transformers franchise. It's mainstream success ensures that without a doubt. The basis that you personally rate movies on won't be the basis in which the movies are remembered. It's comes with the brand name, and what these movies did with their success was add to it's credibility.

I think now would be a good time to mention that I really liked the first one, was deafened by the second one, and am completely neutral on the third. Your biggest mistake was ressurecting this thread with additional hate than the movies pick up, essentially created a "Roger Ebert logs into a Transformers forum..." joke situation. We get it, you don't like the movie, most people posting here, in this thread, do.

I wouldn't rank her up with classic sex symbols like Welch or Fawcett. Back in their heyday, they were truly something special; one in a million. A girl like Megan Fox these days, come a dime a dozen. And I remember TF for the fact that it was the first time these enormous robots were rendered into live action. Seeing Optimus transform for the first time was much more magical than seeing Megan Fox bent over a car hood.

I kind of agree. I tihnk I prefer RotF to DotM as well. The first one is the best, though. The first one seemed like a cinematic event, and after seeing DotM I realized that RotF had a bit of that spark in it as well. But after DotM, which I did enjoy, I feel like the series has pretty much ran dry. Not really sure where else they can take it thought doing the same exact thing again...

No, I'm pretty good if I'm watching something that's interesting. They have real pacing issue's. The first one was ok, it moved along quite smoothly with a few minor bumps. The whole "we're hiding in the space ship" bit could have been culled, didn't see the point of that at all. That and everything to do with his mum and dad.

I agree; the movie spent too much time looking at meaningless action and not enough time focusing on the plot.

The Transformers trilogy suffers from one thing that prevents them from being classic: Human jibbering. I mean think about it: The vast majority of complaints of these movies is related to the humans. Why? Humans are boring, bland, and uninteresting; hell, do you even see them on the posters or DVD/Blu Ray covers? Exactly, you don't. Every non-human related complaint is just typical nitpicking. Bay wastes time on pointless human garbage which should be used to establish development for the decepticons or at least something to themselves. The first was okay, the second was fantastic, and the third was great although it tried too hard to be like the first and got it's problems from that.

Bottom line: Cut the humans to just explaining scenes.

I hate to agree with Twin Drive but he is right since a movie with the robots as the lead characters would be nice. If they are going to have human characters then make them enjoyable. Safe to say that I never like Sam and the rest of the cast at all other then Tyrese Gibson character. He is the only actor that I would like to see return.

Agreed. Nobody went to see the movies just to watch Shia Ladouche be a black hole of human charisma.

In my opinion, the whole human cast acted like idiots throughout the entire trilogy.  This movie series needs to just die or get a new set of main characters.

I wouldn't say the whole cast. I quite liked the hackers in the first movie.

When has Bay ever cared about plot? He's not the sort of director who worries about substance over style.

I kinda liked 'em, too.  It's a pity they didn't make it to the sequels.

Bring in Unicron. Or even Jhaxis or someone.

And just say that when Megatron died it wasn't really Megatron. The one that died could be a simple con' protoform taking the guise of Megs and mimicing his personality and so on, to go into battle until the real Megs got back to full power.

That actually sounds so lame, that it could probably happen.

It was Megatran, his evil twin brother... :o

I always wish Megatron in all three movies had more things to do. He did not show up until the last 20 minuets of the first movie and did show up that much in the second and 3rd movie.

Despite not being in the first movie very long, his presence was felt from the first time we saw him, and it was the only movie where he was a truly intimidating threat. Sure, the second movie had the amazing forest scene, but he was basically second in command to The Fallen. In the third, he literally just sat there while Sentinel Prime did everything. I find it funny that he was insulted by what Carly told him, considering that's all he was in the second film as well.

Ya, blonde chick with an IQ of 63 saves the world.

Hated his design also. Couldn't have been more different if they tried.

I'm not debating the idea. Just that it would never work.

Why would he sit back after 3 movie's and watch his entire fleet get destroyed.

Megaplex is a toy only character. I don't think the idea of a clone being killed instead of Megatron would work on film.

Most people seem to like the idea of Galvatron which would make the most sense.

Old and invalid point is old and invalid... seriously man, this is what, the third time predxeno says something about Transformers 3 and someone stabs with a 'LOL YOU LIKE AVPR!'? Seriously, not only that is a very arguable point (the fact he likes AvPR doesn't even marginally mean his opinion is invalid), but it's been played to death. Come on.

The BR package up there looks interesting (I like the 'industrial' base), but doesn't scream Transformers to me, if I have to be honest. They should do a 'Optimus Prime/Megatron head' package, or else.
Plus, given I do not have a 3D TV, I'm not crazy about the fact the third film is just the 3D Blu-ray.

Actually, I probably won't buy this one; I just don't really see the point in getting it if it's just for 1 movie.

And thanks for your support, OmegaZilla. :)
