As compared to what? The witty and eloquent reparte' of the cartoon? LOL

7.3.7 looks just as good as 7.4.7. Bring it on! The downside is I already had my day planned: Weird Al at Summerfest July 3rd the the midnight 7.4.7 showing of TF...the best laid plans I suppose....

my point is, and I swear quite profusely, is that I just...do not like the giant f-ing robots phrase. I never have.

Bay can say it all he wants, you can say it all you want I just personally dislike it and vocalised that dislike.

It has nothing to do with my general like/dislike of profanity. The F word does not bother me, frag I use it all the time...though I tend to use frag and slag more than the originals.

Mind you now I think about it I cannot think of a more "exited" way to say Giant Robots is coming. Giant Honking Robots make me think of a flock of metalic geese. I suppose in this case I just don't find the usage really necessary.

So a month and a half out from the movie opening, with all their media advertising done up and everything is starting to flood the market ... they think about changing the date.

Now THAT is what I call forward planning!

it could mean a quiet opening night

Either date is fine with me.

And I am all for the giant **** robots.

It is always a dissapointment when one pays for a ticket and then learns that he or she is being presented with nothing better than what was shown in the trailers. Mr. Bay, you have raised my expectations once again...bring on the giant f*cking robots!

I agree. Let's hope he is telling the truth.

Come on 7.3.7

An earlier release would be good, though I'm still confused over the UK release date anyway.

JULY 3! YES

Fri May 18, 2007 4:56 am

I don't care when it comes out. I'm not paying to see it. I'll download it or bootleg it. Mr. Bay and crew wont see any money from me. I have standards.

Fri May 18, 2007 5:31 am

HELL YEAH! whatever, a day earlier works for me.

"Standards"? When you'll illegally download or bootleg something?

Rules and standards here mate. Seems you just broke them.

Seriously, what kind of reaction is that to someone's personal opinion? I myself could argue against Kalon's view of the film, as I love it, but that is his opinion, and you should respect it. I am also against the illegal downloading of the film, but I do not reinforce my point by telling him to have sexual relations with his mother.

Yay you. You massive contradiction there makes you sound foolish. Like the flick or not, why take the time type that, the bitterness for this movie is old, and it makes it look like you're trolling.

On topic, 7-3-7 or 7-4-7 don't matter to me, I'm so there.

When they hired Peter Cullen?

They might have also listened to fans if they include the original transformation noise, and maybe the red/blue optics issue.

third YES!

Today is preferred, but July 3rd would be just a nice.

Why do Americans get their day off on the 3rd instead of the 4th?

Anyways, give me robots a day earlier, no complaints here.

All that I like, I like that he's holding back in the trailers, I also like the action that I'm seeing.

Still not liking the designs, but that aside, it looks like he's off to a good start here.

Now about the 3rd, thats fine and all, but do you think they'll go change all the 7.4 stickers on the RealGear figures :-?

Of course, this "could" be all part of a planned marketing campaign, another way to get it on the news.

"AP Wire: After release of a trailer on yahoo.com, fans were so excited to see the movie, that a movement was begun to get the date of the movie set back earlier, regardless of the large marketing campaign to have it released on July 4th. Such an event has never occurred before, and just shows how eager fans of the movie are to see.. , etc., etc."

When it comes to "big" Hollywood, I suspect that every move such as this is well thought out.
