Now that I think about it, if the whole trip to the moon's main motive was to investigate the crash landed alien ship, why dont they still have any idea about it. Why do they realize it then that they are not alone? I mean, megatron and his cronies have been on earth since the 19th century and President Hoover found out about these aliens in 1913 anyway.

 

Ok, yeah its a michael bay movie so i should probably stop looking for any logic :P

^Really? I found the first one to be a fairly entertaining summer action flick. I am not a fan of the original TF universe, so I didn't have any references or benchmarks. Although I agree , the 2nd movie was a pile of turd.

 

Coincidentally I watched the second movie again yesterday cos I was bored. I must agree it's not quite the most intelligent movie, but big robot porn + explosions + US Army + US Airforce + experimental weapons = OMG awesome action movie... :wOOtjumpy: And I love it. Besides I love the way the Camaro looks, so that's an added bonus. The story, well.. that's secondary really.

 

Yes, I'm a fan of the Transformers from a long time ago, but I'm not really "ashamed" of the way the movies are going or anything. Those who want 'pure' transformers can still catch that in the comics.

I enjoyed the first two films as they were. I wanted to see big a*s explosions and hot chicks in hot pants. The f**k is this Alien wannabe bullshit?

 

 

Don't worry you'll still have all of the former too.... Can't imagine a Michael Bay movie without such nonsense in it. I just wish they leave out Agent Simmons showing off his underwear in the next one though .... :samui:

Read this interview of Michael Bay. Pretty lengthy, but a few points I picked up from it.

 

1. At the outset, he has himself admitted he fked up with the 2nd movie.

2. It wont be shot in 2D and converted to 3D later on. They've used 3D cameras and have shot the movie in 3D itself (80% of it)

3. The guys who did Avatar (Industrial Light and Magic) were hired for this movie.

4. Bay's said he's gonna keep this movie dork free and free of the inane humor of the 1st two. He's making these more serious.

5. The last film transformer film in this storyline. He says he might not do a 4th and maybe the current cast also wont return for a fourth.

 

Seeing all the corrective steps he's taking after the debacle (not financially tho) of the 2nd, I have a feeling, they might just make a decently entertaining film.

Just watched Cars - man, Disney is awesome. It's a shame animated movies are thought of as kiddy movies but these are simply superb - Cars, Toy Story, Incredibles, Monsters Inc, Up, and my favourite of the new crop, Wall-E.

Cars is by far the worst movie ever made by Pixar closely followed by a bugs life. Wall-E had a terrific first half but the moment he lands on the space ship the movie just spirals downwards, same with UP. come to think of it, most of Pixar's movie have a very weak second half compared to the first.

I never thought much of it. It didnt have much of a storyline, infact, it was wafer thin. Plus, transformers is about the transformers, they made it about the humans. If you want to please the fans of an incredible cartoon series, stick to the formula that worked. They shouldnt have made a real life film, instead stuck to a cartoon transformers movie. Also, I thought Megan Fox is one of the most overrated females on this planet.

 

Im sure if you were an avid watched of the original 80s cartoon, you wouldnt have liked the movie. My friend had all the cartoons recorded on VHS when he was in the US. So I ended up watching all the transformers cartoon episodes when I was very young, and obviously enjoyed them :D

/Is part of the problem.

I hope Megan Fox returns as a sultry alien with only body paint :wOOtjumpy:

 

Likey the trailer.. Enjoyed the previous TF movies, 2 more than 1, primarily bcoz of the badass explosions & action, and I hope TF3 features more of them on the MOOOOOONNN ! (Gravity+ Atmosphere + Mind)less explosions FTW :wOOtjumpy:

Yep. They are dumb as sh*t but great fun to see on the big screen with friends. And even on his worst day Bay is far better than someone like Emmerich.

 

Anyway, gonna watch The town this weekend. Heard great things about it.

Michael Bay movies are awesome. Haters gonna f**king hate. :harhar:

 

For once I agree with iChilles.

Nice movie, I kinda loved it. Keeps you somewhat on the edge.

 

Let's not forget he also made films like The Rock, which was a complete entertainer.

 

The Rock ... oh man.. one of my all time favorites .. :majesty: Been thinking about watching it again of late.

This.

 

 

This is why i liked the first 2 movies. As he said , story has become a secondary concern now. Being a TF fan , i love to see how the transformers are pictured in real life graphics unlike the comic and animes.

 

 

 

+ the boobs
