CBright7831 Posted February 1, 2009 Report Posted February 1, 2009 http://www.firstshowing.net/2009/01/31/it-...r-bowl-trailer/ As a fan of the first film (despite the robot piss scene and Killer Mountain Dew Robot), I am stoked. Thoughts?
cbacon Posted February 1, 2009 Report Posted February 1, 2009 Shoulda called it Rise of the Decipticons. Also hope they tone down the forced humour and Megan Fox can GTFO
daileyxplanet Posted February 1, 2009 Report Posted February 1, 2009 Forced humor will go nowhere. Michael Bay said it himself he puts that in to ease tension.
Guest Smues Posted February 1, 2009 Report Posted February 1, 2009 Forced humor will go nowhere. Michael Bay said it himself he puts that in to ease tension. Which is funny (unlike the humor) because that forced humor in the first movie was what caused me tension, and caused me to look for something to slit my wrists with.
bob_barron Posted February 1, 2009 Report Posted February 1, 2009 It can't be much worse than the first one, so there's hope. I guess?
2GOLD Posted February 1, 2009 Report Posted February 1, 2009 I still say the first one was 30 minutes away from being a great movie. But that entire middle thirty minutes of piss jokes and Transformer prat falls was beyond brutal to watch. Nevermind Shia, who I am still not understanding what people find so amazing about his acting.

haws bah gawd Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 I want to know what that gigantic wheeled thing that Optimus is fighting at the end of the trailer is? I've heard everything from its Devastator, to it just being one of the 7 Constructicons. Regarding the first film. I enjoyed the humor. I still think it was a STUPID idea for the military to take the Cube to the middle of a big city and try to evacuate it from there. I know it's just an excuse for Bay to add in his HUGE CGI EXPLOSIONS, but still. Bad tactical decision on the military's part.
CBright7831 Posted February 2, 2009 Author Report Posted February 2, 2009 The Constructicons - several construction vehicles who can combine into a single robot known as Devastator.[3] The name Devastator was mistakenly given to Brawl, a tank, in the first film. The name Bonecrusher, who was one of the Constructicons in the 1980s and Transformers: Universe, was also used for a Decepticon killed in the first film. The original Constructicon names Scrapper and Mixmaster appeared as drone units in the Transformers movie video game. Orci stated during writing neither character will be resurrected though. The names of them haven't been revealed yet Thats a pretty good guess. Seeing Ravage in the trailer makes me happy because when Ravage is around - Soundwave is around.
Conspiracy_Victim Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 Seeing Ravage in the trailer makes me happy because when Ravage is around - Soundwave is around. Here's hoping. I wonder how they're going to explain the whole matter displacement thing so a giant robot could turn into a radio/cassette tape player? We still need Rumble, complete with Bronx (or whatever it was) accent, to really get shit going.

I wonder how they're going to explain the whole matter displacement thing so a giant robot could turn into a radio/cassette tape player? We still need Rumble, complete with Bronx (or whatever it was) accent, to really get shit going. They don't need to explain it, cause from what I've read elsewhere on the net, Soundwave is now some type of jet and not a cassette player. Unless that source was mistaken as well.
Toxxic Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 Well, that makes sense. "This new villains is called Soundwave." "Wow, does he transform into something to do with sound production?" "No, a jet." "...yeah. Of course." "Uh-huh. And out of the jet comes five audio tapes, turning into Ravage, Rumble, Laserbeak, and the other two that no-one cares about." "Audio cassettes from a jet? And wait, audio cassettes? It's 2009!" etc
dubq Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 Shoulda called it Rise of the Decipticons. The GI Joe movie is already sub-titled the Rise of Cobra. Probably didn't want to bite on that. Besides, the Decepticons had their rise in the first movie. Also hope they tone down the forced humour and Megan Fox can GTFO Same goes for Shia LeWhatever. I watched this trailer and honestly thought it was a clipjob from the first movie. *underwhelmed*
dubq Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 "Uh-huh. And out of the jet comes five audio tapes, turning into Ravage, Rumble, Laserbeak, and the other two that no-one cares about." Woah woah. That's blasphemy to talk about Frenzy that way!! (even though he was fucking lame in the 2007 movie, which was also lame)
C Dubya 04 Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 I think I'm in the minority here, but I'd put Megan Fox as about the 2nd best thing from the first movie.
Black Lushus Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 is "random australian hotty that happens to be the greatest computer expert in the world yet at the same time doesn't really have much to do with the overall story" going to be there as well?

She'll be European this time. Who gets to be the zany black comic relief guy?
Black Lushus Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 Sadly, Tyrese is returning as "military dude that cracks jokes from time to time"...that dude just can't act whatsoever....i couldn't tell if Baby Boy was a comedy or what.
Paul Stanley Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 I liked when Ving Rhames choked him out almost on Baby Boy
Black Lushus Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 yeah that was good shit, then he slapped the top of his head as he walked off. Oy vey, according to Wiki, we will be treated to Wheelie, who will actually be a R/C car. Fucking Wheelie...
haws bah gawd Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 People didn't like Frenzy in the first film? News to me. To add to the "what will Soundwave transform into?" talk, on the TFW2005 boards, some of those guys have heard he's a satellite of some sort.
Black Lushus Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 Latest rumor I've heard is that he's a triple changer: jet AND satellite. Hopefully, this time we get more Decepticon dialogue, including Starscream's treacharous ways.
Steviekick Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 The article on Wiki says that Starscream gets a good share of screen/dialogue time in the movie.
2GOLD Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 Sadly, Tyrese is returning as "military dude that cracks jokes from time to time"...that dude just can't act whatsoever....i couldn't tell if Baby Boy was a comedy or what. Wait..he was cracking jokes? Really? I don't think I noticed one. I thought Anthony Anderson was the "comedy" in the first one?
NoCalMike Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 Wait so are the Constructicons(who form into Devastator) their own gang, or are they Decepticons?
Cheech Tremendous Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 The first Transformers movie was so unbelievably awful, but the prospect of two hours of Megan Fox may be enough to drag me back for the second one.
dubq Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 Wait so are the Constructicons(who form into Devastator) their own gang, or are they Decepticons? I think they're still Decepticons. That said, wasn't the tank in the first movie already called Devestator?
Black Lushus Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 Bonecrusher...which happens to be the name of one of the Constructicons. Gold, I'm sorry, I meant to say the guy that gets in all the patented Bay one liners.
luke-o Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 Oy vey, according to Wiki, we will be treated to Wheelie, who will actually be a R/C car. Fucking Wheelie... I'm all for "sticking to the source matieral", but they can go far away from that source. If I have to watch a giant robot say "You go wrong way, you fool I say" in 2009 I will be seriously pissed.
The Amazing Rando Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 "Uh-huh. And out of the jet comes five audio tapes, turning into Ravage, Rumble, Laserbeak, and the other two that no-one cares about." Pfft... you forgot Ratbat and Buzzsaw (but he also had Overkill, Slugfest, Beastbox, and Squawktalk. Blaster had Rewind, Eject, Ramhorn, and Steeljaw. There was also Raindance and Grandslam, who could combine to be SLAMDANCE.
