I caught it during Family Guy last night. Wasn't the best ad, but it did the job. I just wish it didn't make all of the TFs just sound like alien invaders.

alright, but when i play it, nothing shows up. all it plays is the sound from the commercial.

They better be getting the voice-work done and the soundtrack cause they arent but 6 or 7 weeks until this gets released. Not unless that is what they are working on now. David Kieth as barricade is awesome enjoyed in them Steven Seagal Movies liked Mark for Death and the Spawn Animated Series. If that is Starscream's voice from the sector 7 clip that will be friggin sweet. Hugh as Megatron loved him as agent smith a kick ass bad guy hated him in the LOTR trilogy he sucked as a elf. Why are they keeping the soundtrack so quiet I only no 2 songs in it now Liknin Park and Go Go Dolls if they sing like in the Twister soundtrack then it should be good I hope it is somewhat like Long way down. Lastly I hope that they are not to much romance crap in this movie and I hope we get to see some flashbacks of the war. Be cool at the end of the credits we get a glimpse of Unicron heading towards earth or cybertron or the start on autobot city.

I doubt we'll ever see an Autobot City in this continuum...it makes no sense in this story line as they seem to want to remain "in disguise" as much as possible (the Autobots anyways). I can really see a three-way conflict eventually evolving into a two-way; perhaps the Decepts trick the government or offer advanced tech in exchange for help against the Autobots then backstab the government. The potential for conspiracy in this storyline is significant: private enterprise, evil scientists, power-hungry terrorists, etc., all getting involved for a piece of the tech/profit potential.

Spiderman 3: $184 million opening weekend
Shrek 3: $122 million opening weekend
Transformers: I'd wager they top $200 million the first weekend...this just appeals to WAY to many people.

Linkin park isnt confirmed for the soundtrack as far as I know, they were in the trailer but that always happens. One song for the trailer but not in the actual movie soundtrack.

As far as Unicron goes why do so many people want this to rehash the 1986 movie? This is a new take so lets have new adventures and stories and not redo the same stuff over and over.

I got a good chuckle out of my old fart of a dad remembering that from when my brother used to watch the old G1 show. :D


My sister asked me the same thing when we both saw it. And I replied the same way.

SAME 'OL SAME 'OL...

since i've heard rumors that the bots really don't start appearing until halfway through the movie, and we haven't seen a lot of the bots transform...i'm thinking there's only a few scenes of each bot in full robot mode. and we've seen the same stuff over and over...man hopefully this is the only completed stuff and the really cool shots are being saved.

I'm I the only one who thought it was clever for them to mention/have Judd Nelson appear immediately before the trailer aired?

As for the trailer itself, well, not really much "new exciting" stuff, but it was ok. Not sure which way the movie's gonna go, but I"m gonna see it on day one if I can.

No, I saw Judd Nelson too, and the first thought that went through my mind was Transformers. Then the commercial started, and I almost felt psychic

Heres the new stuff that wasnt in the other trailers

- A protoform entry pod begins to transform
- A more much detailed transformation of Blackout
- More destruction of Saxxon Forward Operations Base, including some C-17s getting demolished
- Scorponok detaching from Blackout
- An A-10 attacking Scorponok
- More of Lennox and his men attacking Scorponok

Thats really all of the new stuff, there was alot of stuff from the new trailer such as the 2 starscream transformations, Barricade starring down Sam, and Scorponok coming out of the ground

It looked really awsome on my dad's new 50" Plasma HDTV


quicktime anyone?

Who and we did?


Yep, Simon Furman (THE Transformers writer for the Marvel, DW, and IDW comics) is from the UK. You guys also had the whole motivator/predator line, as well as the Overlord base figure, which we never saw here in the US. We did get some of these figures in the form of Machine Wars, but they weren't quite the same. Oh, and let's not forget those deluxe Actionmasters (such as Omega Spreem and Double Punch/Black Zarak).

I know, it would be nice to see you guys get some of the more current exclusives and other stuff. Maybe the movie will bring that around for you guys.
