Damn.. too much shown in trailers

Postby bl80 » Tue Jul 03, 2007 6:17 am

ya ya ya there is SO much more in the film and the trailers only show a small percentage of overall TF action..

but they do show almost all of the really good stuff.

having watched many of the trailers many times over and again (no help from the constant barrage on TV), it kinda killed the "money shot" moments for much of the film.

Damn.. nearly all of the Bonecrusher / Prime fight was online .. tho the last 20 seconds was pretty damn amazing..

just wished they had marketed less big shots in the TV campaign.. at least until the movie was released.

still had a great time.. and it will be one of those movies i watch many times over.

I generally try to avoid trailers because I can piece the action together off them, but with TF I couldn't help myself. I guess it took some surprise out, but it still rocked so I don't mind. Doesn't matter now on the second viewing.

I agree - I was a little disappointed... not so much with what was in the film, rather what I had already seen. I mean, Bay made a point of saying that this film probably has more "money shots" which aren't in the trailers than any other film in history! Yet - I had already seen most of the big scenes. It's my own fault - I was just expecting to see more new shots!

Oh well...

Agreed. A few of the one liners and Bonecrusher "skating" through the bus would have been much better if I hadn't seen them already.

*Sigh* Bay should have stayed to is old idea: Don't show the robot!

The first trailer made me wonder what would happen whit Blackout but now ive seen almost 50% of the movie. But, i decided not to watch any clip. So, i have no freakin idea of how Weaving sound as Megatron.

Here is the trailer I created and posted on youtube.com last Friday... I can't believe how accurate almost I was in putting the plot that followed the movie last night when I saw it...

if you care to see it... let me know what you think...

i was mad that i knew alot of what happened. it made the movie not as exciting to me even though i still loved it.

for the sequel, i am not going to watch any clips. only thing i will watch is the theatrical trailer and maybe tv spots.
