And now Doom's comments.....


Saw this again (bootleg of course). It's definitely better second time 'round. I think because this time I wasn't preoccupied with the hang-ups I had first time.

Either way....Shia is still enjoyable. Bumblebee didn't bother me this time and I actually dug that his dialouge was all cut-n-paste thru radio chatter. It kinda iked me about Megatron not being a gun or recognizable---but the I realized that when he crashed on Earth there really wasn't anything to scan. So it made a bit more sense.

Anyways...it was better. Not by much....but still better. I still wouldn't get it on DVD with my own money.




That said....I don't wanna see a sequel. They should leave it as is. And if they're gonna do sequels.....the third films needs to be a remake of the old movie.

Like you matter.....:p


I don't wanna see a sequel because I'm so sick and tired of Hollywood turning everything into some damn franchise. Seriously. Sometimes one movie is good enough. There just doesn't need to be a live-action Transformers franchise.

Not true.

He could have been a musket, or a bi-plane, or an early, steam-driven automo-wagon.

So badass.

But it doesn't hurt anything to make more. It certainly doesn't affect the first movie at all. Just don't watch any others if you don't want to.
 
This movie is overrated. It's easily the most visually entertaining movie I've ever seen (next to 300), but the
ending seemed kind of anticlimactic. Megatron and the rest of the Decepticons were defeated too quickly and easily, and Optimus Prime wasn't in it enough. Megatron wasn't in it enough either. Neither was John Turturro. Neither was Jazz. The Decepticons' defeat wasn't good enough for me. And Megan Fox should have had a 10-minute nude-scene. Better yet, a 10-minute swimsuit-scene with her washing Bumblebee in corvette mode. Also, Samuel L. Jackson should have had a cameo as a pedestrian shouting something funny.

Am I supposed to put spoiler tags in a spoiler thread?

I give it a ****, for **** this movie. Just joking. That's my review of the Simpsons trailer.

I agree about the franchise thing. However i think some have to be franchises like Comic Book movies or movies based on old cartoons.

The only reason I think theses ones need to be a series of movies is there is so much history and things people want to see.

E.g Batman. You do a film with joker people then want two face. You give them two face they want riddler.


Same thing with transformers. Some people want Unicron , Some people want galavtron , Some people want Rodimus , Some people want soundwave.


Films like scary movie , Saw , American pie , Bruce almighty , Daddy day care. Never needed sequels and never should of had them. The odd sequel here and there are ok.


But I might not be explaining it well but remakes , prequels and sequels with how many they have done have pretty much killed the film business and I'm sick of it.

Actually lots of movies end with continuing suggestions like that. It was more of "Here we go again" Than, "We know what we're doing for the next one" See people only sees the end product but don't think on the production. Movie makers are not as obsessed with what's next as we are. they are focused on making their movie and finishing it. Rarely do film makers plan ahead so far. They just leave a vague enough ending IF they choose to continue. The only film I know of that when the first movie was made they were anticipating the sequel, was with Lord of the rings and that was the first time (That I know of) where the sequels were ready to start production. At this point Michael Bay only has ideas of what he would like to do. But until you hear them officially announce the sepuel they have no real solid idea of what will happen next. When ever they make the first movie, its just that movie all the way.
 
Back to the Future 2 and 3 were filmed back-to-back. That's the earliest I can think of.

Also, Super Mario Bros. ended on a cliffhanger and I'm still waiting on the sequel to that!

Not the first. See its extremely rare for companies to finance a second movie if they have no idea whether or not the first one will succeed. Not until they look at the profits and the potential will they finance another one. For Transformers there's nothing solid, just ideas floating around in peoples head, thats it.
 
I thought Pirates 2 and 3 were, and Matrix 2 and 3 as well, but we were talking about the first, and anyway Random was REALLY talking about a 1 and 2, not a 2 and 3 combo.

Exactly, but that's kind of off the point. They dont really plan ahead for sequels, they just leave doors open. Transformers didnt purposely put Scarscream flying away because they knew where they are going next, it was to say to the audience "Here we go again" type of thing. Like just because the movie is over the adventure continues
