The death scene for Optimus is pretty emotional too.

Special effects and giant robots. You gotta admit that the giant robot fight scenes are pretty cool, its just that the movies are also infested with real people. YUCK!!!


It would be much better without the Bay shaky cam, he's awful at camerawork.

It was however, more memorable than that 80s abortion of animation with the cheeseball hair metal soundtrack.

Then you should probably become 12 again, since thats what you're gonna need to feel a connection to that kind of material now.

<3 an emotional connection to childhood toys and movies. Stop being so jaded.

Shuma antagonistic? I don't think such a thing can be.

I watch the old shows on DVD now and again. I admit: I can only take so much at a time. But Transformers can be done better than Bay. IDW and War for Cybertron are two good examples that could sell a lot of toys with the ad budget of a Bay film.

It's true. he's in love with himself and is an internet tough guy, but he means well and his heart is usually in the right place. Get past his flaws and he's a decent bloke.

Alright, enough line-toeing.

I do agree that this trailer was boring. The only thing I wanted to see was a Transformer. And I got to. Two minutes in, for a fraction of a second.

I agree with manchu pre-bayfomers are better. Also my main gripe with the current transformers movies (other than it's not exactly true to the source material) is the crappy job they do on the action scenes, because our mind can only process 3

major details at once when there's rapid movement occurring. Every action scene I watch involving the highly detailed transformers just turns into indescribable, blurry images flashing at my face. The best Transformers movie still is the 1986

version, at least I can actually see the robots beating the crap out of each.

It appears I may have misidentified him, as a lot of other rumour mongering on other places points this to be Alpha Trion. I still think it's Wreck-Gar as the colours match...

Huzzah! More 80' Robots beating the snot out of each other!

Though sadly without Megan Fox's tits wobbling about this time. Ah well, can't have it all!
