OMG! Bumblebee throwing a fit when the car dealer doesn't want to sell was hilarious! As for the other scenes, I am really thinking that I will indeed see and enjoy this movie. It isn't G1, but I think it will still be time well spent (along with the money to see it).

I noticed your typo, but I'm not the correcting kind of person
Proxies, or an anonymous proxy connects you to a server and in turn the server connects to the website you are going to. In this way it is possible to view US only content from anywhere in the world. Firefox has a "Switch Proxy" addon that you can find on their "extensions" link. I prefer to use a US anonymous proxy from samair (google "proxy list") with a ip with a port 80 connection, example like xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:80. try it out, it usually works for me. (strange though I can view the content without a proxy)

I guess you know something about web browsers and computers so maybe you can help me. I cant get any of these videos to run smooth. There all choppy. Is there a way to fix this or does my modem suck. Im useing firefox as my browser.

You tubed....i literally just died laughing hearing him shout "THIS IS SPARTA!" on the phone!!!

Anyways, is this the whole thing?

Am I the only one who hears something along the lines of laugher right before Bonecrusher tackles Prime? I seems out of place, because the voice isn't nearly as deep as the rest of the noises, but that may be because it's right before the slow motion part. Anyway, I don't know if anyone else mentioned it, so I figured it was worth bringing up.

What the hell are you talking about?! The Transformers scanning any vehicle and turning into them was how they all become what they are now in the first place.

Hurt the mythos? you must be on crack or something.

I suggest you try using Internet Explorer. IE handled flash intensive tasks better than FireFox in my opinion. Sites like chevyautobot.com, transformersgame.com and even the transformersmovie.com is great with IE, no lag. For some reason Firefox probably uses up too much memory or resources, the latest site that lagged, autobotsrollout.com played the video in a very choppy way.

And flash video too seems better than Firefox. I guess Firefox is better with faster CPU and more Ram (I have a 1.6 ghz and 734mb ram)

If I may say so, I think this is a CAM rip, ie recorded with a camcorder, or while viewing I think someone forgot to turn off their mic

And yeah, it's very hard not to notice, I had to make sure the nearby car passengers weren't the ones laughing lol

MTV for going the extra mile, and to Cullen for being the kickass nice guy he is and recording that bit.

It also proves one thing, the voice we heard in the leaked commercial where you first see Prime's "lips" was, in fact, Cullen's.

It was a little weird to hear the deeper voice at first, but after repeated viewings, he sounds fantastic.

Apparently you don't realize, I'm not stupid. I don't pull stuff out of my ass and it's instantly golden truth. So like please please don't talk down to other board members, because we're not paid to be here, so we shouldn't have to put up with absolutely retarded posts such as your's. (NOTE: Thanks for letting me get this out, I just had to, and this is one time I enjoyed it. And I'm happy to be here as a freebie, and I wasn't even remotely serious about being paid to be here. That was in response to your absolutely asinine post.)

OF COURSE CULLEN WAS PAID FOR IT! HE'S A PROFESSIONAL! WTF?!

That being said...(still with me?) he could've turned them down. He wouldn't have had to record a single line for a "piddling little" awards show. Many other stars have turned their back on something like this, so my point is still valid. Peter Cullen is a kick ass guy for doing this.

Why isn't this on the homepage? TFW has had this for hours. Cheating bastards.

I dont wanna get involved with that flame war...but i justw ant to point out that peter cullen isnt a "star". Anyone outside of the TF fandom and winnie the **** wouldnt have heard of him.

This is probably the biggest break he has ever had, i would have thought he would have been more than willing to do a couple of piddly lines for an awards show for some money, the dudes gotta eat too ya know.

I guess no one cares that i gave a link to the whole spoof?

Perhaps you are unaware that this link, I believe, was already posted. Yes it was, it's the reason why I seen the whole spoof already without clicking your link. Where is your link anyways...wait, you do actually care that no one cared about your link? Wow I seen alot of strange things on the net but....lol...

And no, sorry, no hugs. I give hugs to those who don't ask for it, so....

Is it me or does Bonecrusher's growls kinda sound like a certain voice actor who used to play Megatron?

Powermaster Jazz wrote:Is it me or does Bonecrusher's growls kinda sound like a certain voice actor who used to play Megatron?

In the video I'm looking at (Which may be slightly different then your's) what I hear sounds more like Prime grunting.

I thought the Prime/Bonecrusher scene was AWESOME!!! I also liked the spoof they did with Optimus Prime. The main difference I am noticing in Prime's voice at this point is in the original G1 cartoon, Prime's voice was a lighter, but still very commanding. Now it seems very deep and engaging. I guess for it to really remind you of his G1 voice, you will have to hear his trademark "Autobots transform and roll out". Funny that there haven't been any real good audio clips of Megatron as of yet..

Uh, Michael Bay actually stated that that clip was not official and that WAS NOT Peter Cullen's voice. Could you not tell?

I posted the link for those of us who have been having trouble viewing the MTV clip from the MTV site. Not ALL of us live in the US and not ALL of us can view the video because of MTV and stupid copyright laws. That was the only reason i posted the link, to be helpful to thsoe who couldnt watch it since no one else was being helpful.

No need to be a jerkticon about it.

(i made up a new word!)

I agree, it sounds like Prime got the wind knocked out of him a bit there.

In case you do not remember, I was the one who so graciously helped you in your question here. Let me refresh your memory:

mangatron earlier in this here thread wrote:How do you guys view these things? I'm in germany and it seems to be working for me. If you haven't tried using Firefox, you might want to give it a go. I used that when watching the spoof and it was fine, no country specific rights whatever. Although I wasn't using a proxy, maybe that will help too.

Bolded for great anti-Alzheimer's.

In case you didn't realize the emote, my previous post was a joke, so way to be a "jerkticon" by stabbing me in the back after I so painstakingly answered your questions earlier and for being such a wisey for not recognizing the ;lol; emote in my previous post. Want some of me?

In my own words, invented by me and for you copyright infringers,

"It's not that I'm an elitist, it's these...."n00bs" around me making me look like an elitist"

Way to get the joke bud....

Holy crap dude...ya'll need to take a happy pill or something. 'Case ya didnt realize i too was joking, hence the stupidity that was my invention of the word "jerkticon", what kinda person would take such a word seriously?? Christ on a cracker already!

Oh and thanks for your help but it didnt help me much since i dont know enough about computers to understand what you said. Nice of ya to say so and all but it didnt help, doesnt matter now though since i found the clip myself. I also forgot it was you who had given out the help as well, not all of us have good memories here so give a dude the benefit of the doubt once in a while.

I guess this is a classic example of humour and sarcasm getting lost in translation to text. But i think next time maybe you shouldnt jump the gun and come accross so hostile and actually assess the situation first before replying and giving threats like "want some of me?" Trust me if we was to go down that route in RL, i wouldnt be the one leaving in the ambulance mate, at least not with my current mental state and my current anger management issues, so take it easy already before you anger someone.

You wont like me when im angry. (CAN YOU SEE THE EMOTE THERE? ITS A JOKE YA SEE, SO WE'RE COOL ALRIGHT? )

I mean i called you a "jerkticon" ffs! How else is one supposed to take that apart from in a humourous way? I mean just pronounce the word out loud and realize how stupid it sounds...

Jeez...can you spit my head back out now please?

The MTV bit was cool. The GM footage was rather interesting because we see more expanded stuff. I still think we are going to be teased until July 4th.

man i dont care about the clip i cared that transformers WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah i mean Weaving is a big name, you would have thought they would market his involvement in the film a little more wouldntcha? He IS Agent Smith after all.
