When Blackout Transformed at the Beginning....

Postby Conceptron » Tue Jul 24, 2007 10:20 pm

What were your emotions. Despite my almight gripes about this film, the emotions that ILM gave me from that transformation is something that I think will last a long time. I could literally feel my heart in my mouth.

What went through your heads or how did you feel when Blackout transformed at the beginning?

p.s. I'm not ALL bad

OH WOW ONE OF THE FIRST NON RANTING POSTS BY YOU!!!!!

I shat myself. and they made damn sure I'd shat myself by putting that original transformation sound in there too.

Seeing him demolish that base, from a wide angle view, was also mind blowing.

I did not like the way he went down, but that's life.

I am sure the apocalypse is upon us.

See, there WERE some for you to like about this movie, even if it was only the special effects.

Blackout was cool, but I didn't really get goosebumps untill the Autobot arrival scene. I finally geeked out when Starscream arrived at the dam and started tearing **** up!

That's cheating, the question was about blackout! Autobot arrival scene with that music made me shat AND wet myself!

And I've never liked Starscream in any cartoon, other then perhaps the 86 movie, but I like his sound much better now, and he is definitely an air ace now, and showing it.

Also seeing Ironhide transformer on approach to Brawl was my geek-out moment.

i started bouncing in my seat BEFORE he even transformed. Seeing the hologram inside... I thought "they're screwed". Then watching him transform, and hearing the sound effects.... I didn't care that he was decepticon, I just started cheering.

I wasn't the only one either. ; )

And seeing the live action transformation like that.. I was in my little heaven at that point.

i just thought it was funny, that the Soldiers started firing when he was half way done transforming. I mean if i was there and i saw that helicopter start to transform i would be like
"Cya Suckers, i saw the movie, i know what happens next" lol Then i would run away lol

XD LOL. Yea, you'd think after watching enough movies, you'd get the sixth sense of knowing when serious **** is about to happen. Then again...the whole 9-11 thing. "Lets watch as airplines collide into the Twin Towers." Minutes later. "Oh ****! They're falling! Run!!!"

Or eve just War of the Worlds. ; \ Humans can't really be that slow. Can they? lol

Youre all going to say I'm crazy. But for me the real oh ****, excuse the language, moment was when barricade transformed. It was up close and personal, one on one. And he was actually speaking english instead of decepti-growl.

When Blackout landed and then Transformed i went into geek mode bigtime, and according to the missus had a stupid big grin on my face from that point onwards lol.

He was awesome in that scene :grin:

I thought it was one of the most amazing moments of the movie. really helped establish how lethal the Decepticons are to us humans.

What got me going big time was just the fact they got right into the film. When you heard Optimus say, "But we were already too late..." I was thinking, "Oh my god... Sh^t's gonna hit the fan this early in the movie?!"

That Blackout scene was superb and just so well done. One of my favorite movie moments I'll remember. WOW.

I had a grin from ear to ear and goosebumps when he transformed.
Not a sheeple.
Think for yourself, don't let the magic TV box and social media do the thinking for you.
Question EVERYTHING!!
Just because you have a youtube review channel doesn't make you special.
I look forward to attending a Botcon soon only to settle matters with several idiots in person (yes this is a threat).
