Wooo Transformers

saw it tuesday night... great action movie

I didn\'t go into it with any super high expectations.. one thing is, I didn\'t expect it to be as funny as it was.  That was pleasantly surprising...

The action was good, but I too thought the camera work was a bit of of wack in some of the fight scenes... especially the first one between an outobot & decepticon (bumblebee & police car.. prowl?) I was like WTF happened there.  And Optimus Prime looked like a pussy compared to Megatron.. I thought they were a little more evenly matched in the cartoons?

And gee... I wonder if they are gonna make another one with that ending

How can someone not enjoy big robots beating the crap out of each other? But then again, I love the cartoons...Even the crappy ones.

It seemed like the scale was a bit off sometimes. Often they\'d look pretty damn big, but in other shots they were more humble.

For example, the first time Sam sees Bumble Bee as a robot, it looks pretty fucking huge, many times the length of a Camaro. But later on, it\'s more like twice the size of a car (in robot shape that is).

I saw it last monday. I was expecting huge disappointment but strangely I loved it. I am not that satisfied with the models although I liked them, because they didnt resemble at all the transformers I knew. Only Optimus did.

I prefered Frank Welker for Megatron\'s voice. And definitely Megatron and Starscream should have been more similar to the Generation1 transformers. If they made Optimus remind of the old why couldnt make these two as well? They were like a trademark for the series.

Some differences were too extreme. Some robots I think didnt even exist previously.

Generally though the movie was very enjoyable for me.

I\'m pretty sure all the robots in the movie existed previously in the cartoons, their cars were different, but their names/personalities were for the most part the same.

Ok, i\'ve seen it Juli 6th.

First of all : i was already OK, with the designs. Somehow i just love Starscream\'s design ALOT better than the G1 version.

Speaking of which ; imo, Starscream had too little screentime. In the scenes he does appear he does indeed kick major butt.

The scene where Scorponok battles that survivor squadron drags on way too long.

The way the military takes down Blackout wasn\'t really convincing to me.

As for action scenes : the Optimus VS Bonecrusher scene was awesome. Other battle scenes in the city streets were a bit too overcomplicated/hectic, regarding shot framing & timing.

The CGi & character animation was pure love though.

I\'d rate the movie a 7.5 out of 10

This is exactly why so much shit comes out of Hollywood.  Why do people go to movies where they expect to not like it?  That\'s a lot of money to spend on shit....

I mean this movie is good, but why go see it if you don\'t think you\'ll like it?

Thinking and knowing are 2 different ball games. Isn\'t it obvious why he went to see it, he wanted to confirm his thoughts on the movie.

I\'d rather underestimate a movie and think it\'ll be shit to find out it isn\'t bad at all. To overestimate a movie to find its total rubbish.

You make no sense.  Why go to a movie if you think it\'s going to be bad?  Just to hope it will be good?  For 20 bucks?  Great reasoning.  So in other words, you could fuck a fat chick and have the same results.  You assume it\'s going to be bad, but who knows.  She could rock your world.

apples and oranges, you see. You might have a dickhead mate who says the movie is bad. So you start to think, its probably shit. Then another mate might say its ok. So you start to wonder.

A fat chick is something thats in front of you. Think of it this way, if you heard a chicks VOICE over a phone and thought, fuck that could be some good ass. Then you meet her and she\'s a whale, you\'re not gonna root her. Unless your sammy.

Seeing the fat chick is like seeing the movie, hearing her voice is like watching a trailer.

I hope you haven\'t denied yourself movies because of a retard thought put in there by mates or even just a self created idea.

i just do rottentomatoes.com ;>

otherwise ill see a chitty movie if friends drag me along

was jazz\'s first line "what\'s up, bitches?"
:rolleyes:

aside from messing up starscream, not a bad film for michael bay.

I have a tough time going to the theater any more.  I usually just buy the movie when it comes on DVD.  So much freaking cheaper.  I just get Logan to kick me in the back of the head so I feel like I am at the AMC.

I don\'t know what the cinemas are like in the \'States, but I know for a fact that I always find a movie more enjoyable in large groups of people. Perhaps I\'m just naturally gregarious, but I think most people would concur.

I used to have to drive 35 minutes to the  burbs to see a movie, even though I lived 3 minutes from one. I stopped going because it\'s on a bus line from the city, and there would always be fights / riots in the lobby & outside, muggings, and endless talking crying babies & cellphone abuse during the movie.
