I saw TF when it came out in 2007 and have not watched it since until just now. I won't bother giving my opinion on it as a film because no one cares and it's not important, but there are one or two things that I wanted to say about it:
1) I totally recognized it was Hugo Weaving as Megatron's voice, which I think is pretty good considering how many effects there are on it, but no one was around to appreciate my spotting it so I'm saying it here.
2) How come Bumblebee can talk at the end of the movie, but then communicates via radio in ROTF and DOTM? Does something happen in one of the second 2 movies that I've forgotten about?
3) Did Ironhide really need to do that many forward rolls?

Also I'd never noticed before how pathetic Megatron's gun is. I mean it's powerful enough to send Prime smashing into a building, but seriously? That whiny little 'pew pew' is the noise they went for?

Bumblebee using the radio was briefly mentioned in RotF. It was after he killed the kitchen bots and went back in the garage. He was hitting his throat and Mikaela said "he's still having voice problems?" then Sam replied with" yeah, but he's playing it up." So going by that I think BB can talk, but it causes him some discomfort, so he sticks with the radio.
And yes, Megatron's pew-pew gun was pretty lame, I don't think it did any damage to Optimus at all.

Agreed on Megatron's lame gun sounds effects. Looks good visually, but "pew, pew?" Really?
The G1 and TF Prime fusion cannon sounds win hands down with that guttural roar of energy.

Such heroic nonsense...
I do not blame Michael Bay for crapping all over a huge part of my childhood. He just directed the scripts that were given to him. I blame Orci, Kurtzman, and Krueger, who seem completely incapable of concocting a story that even halfway makes sense.RiddlerJ wrote:Each one will come with an autographed picture of Michael Bay sitting on top of a huge pile of money.

Yeah, and his cannon in RoTF sounds much better.

DOTM too. Even though he only used it like twice.

Optimus Prime's voice is much deeper in the 2007 movie as well, notice that?

Watch them again. The voice change is so prominent to the point that it's annoying.
hence the happy dance!
