Good movie.
Good to know, I will see it this weekend
I hate these long-winded movie reviews.
Too much talk!
Summarise it plz kthxbai!
Argh! Not out here till the 27th! What is the point in that? Why not release it everywhere?
Because the movie theaters are running Linux and have difficulty multi-tasking *ducks*Quote:

I think you all should know that I'm just as big a Transformers geek as I am Linux fan.
Fair warning that's all.

I'm glad you dug up this thread to add that worthwhile contribution. It would not have been complete otherwise.
happy to help :D
ktnx in retrospect.
The Transformers film is brilliant. I have no wonder why critics have rated it so low on Rotten Tomatoes
The only ugly aspect of the film I've seen is the girl's fingernails.
Picture?
(I haven't seen the movie - and yes - I am ashamed :( )
i've been saving up for Harry Potter instead. I am a huge Transformers Fanboy (my custom title probably gave it away) but this movie would have kicked 2x the ass in Imax 3d.
I learned something from the Transformers movie.
There is nothing more unintelligent sounding in the world than a blonde Australian woman attempting to say something technical like "You've got to build a DNA based computer"
:lol:
Yeah she wasn't very convincing
She also said it should be running Linux, but i think that part really made her loose her credibility :D
Actually, she had a Mac. As did a lot of the scientists in the Department of Defense. That would explain the worldwide failure of the Internet...Quote:

almost as believable when bruce banner said "the radiation must have affected the nano drugs or something" in the Hulk
Why would Optimus Prime have a mouth, when he could just have a speaker instead?
Helps him blend in with humans.Quote:

You could also argue that they don't need legs since they already have wheels. But maybe it is like in war of the worlds (the book) where the martians had never invented the wheel and everything was lever based:
Maybe the cybertronians never invented speakers.
OR most likely: The better to eat you with, my dear.
You could have ended your sentence right there. :pQuote:

Robots can feel love?
Don't show your ignorance. For further information, read any book in the Robot series by Isaac Asimov (rest his soul)
Hey, I know of a few intelligent sounding blonde Australian women. Penagate, Lucy Lawless, Peter Jackson...Quote:

I just saw another trailer for it, the one where that Jet (Starscream?) lands in the street and does a somersault and fires a rocket at something. Damn that looks awesome. Also there's a robot in there that looks a lot like the Citroen C4 Robot off that commercial. It would blend in pretty well, is it the same one?
I cannot wait until the DVD comes out. Hope there's a limited edition one.
No the C4 doesn't feature as they are all mostly cars owned by GM (vauxhall).
Starscream isn't in it much unfortunately although barricade is cool in it. I especially love the "To punish and enslave" instead of "To protect and serve" on the car :thumb:
*drool*
Can't wait. I just found my Skorponok (sp?) toy from back in the day. His head comes off and transforms into a little bloke. Coolness.
I had a fever once back in college. At one point in the morning, the autobots had a base in my sleeping bag (I had the chills so bad I had put on long underwear, and put my 15 degree (F) sleeping bag under a couple heavy blankets, and was still shivering). The bad guys showed up on my pillow, and the autobots flew out to fight with them. I was hiding behind the sleeping bag so they wouldn't shoot me by accident.
A couple hours later I decided that the whole thing probably hadn't happened, and perhaps the fever had been a bit higher than I had thought at the time.
You'd have known it was real if there were puddles of oil and busted up engine parts scattered around your bed.
The Spelling is Scorpinox, Your version is a later release and is known as a "Head Master", and he appears in the movie.Quote:

I didn't spot that:lol:Quote:
"To punish and enslave"
I bet he's popular with the ladies, what with being a respected member of the Decepticons and all that.Quote:

if i didn't know better (and i don't) i would think someone added those pictures to their shirts after the photo was taken.
You had to go and ruin it didn't you?
Does the girl on the right know she's pregnant?
Here's a gripe ::Spoiler Alert::
If anyone remembers the original series, you will remember that Jazz was a sports car, and loved to Jam stereos loud, talked in music or rhymes, and even used speakers as a weapon.
Knowing all of this, why do you suppose the directors saw fit to turn bumblebee into a Jazz Clone, especially considering Jazz was in the movie?
==SPOILERS==
When they are first introduced Jazz does act like the Jazz of old by using music to emphasize his voice and dances around. However Jazz isn't in it much in terms of voicing, especially compared to Bumblebee. Besides, the only point that bumblebee acts like Jazz is when he first talks to Sam, and you could argue that he's excited that Sam understands him
===========
that was my point. The only talking he did was through radio and he was a sports car. The part should have been played by Jazz.
Nah, Bumblebee was the main character along with Optimus. Jazz was only a minor character
yeah dvd will rock. Should be made by the same group that made the final Lord of the rings boxed set. I want 2 disks to start with, transforming robot screens avers on my computer, demos of the video game, 4 hours of deleted scenes, exclusive director's cut that introduces the dinobots, etc. I hope it meets my expectations ;)
Speaking of Dinobots, I've got Grimlock. He was the T-Rex one. Probably the most complicated transformer toy they made at the time. The humanoid form looks weird but the dinosaur form is really decent.
I broke half of his tail off when I was 9 :( He's never been the same since.
just because of the giant wings and the "feet". And speaking of bumblebee, another non-bumblebee trait in the movie is his ability to kick butt. He was the weakest of all robots in the original series (and the smallest) except for maybe a single insecticon. Barricade would have annihilated him in a real fight.
Yeah but Bumblebee is yellow.
