Scorpinok: Scorpion. Allso appears to attach to Blackout some how and unsure if he will even have a robot mode in the movie.

quick question (and granted may be a stupid one here) scorpinok's transformation, could it be the large bot which tussles wtih (dives ino) optimus near the end of the trailer with 'cage' style head?

Just a thought

lmao..umm, you def. got that all wrong. that transformer at the end that rams into prime is Bonecrusher. hes a minesweeping vehicle or something alike. thats what the big claw is..

Anyways if Jazz does die in this first film he’d better be a 911 GT-3 or GT-2 Turbo in the sequel. In regards to the size of the autobot cast, does anyone have the producer’s excuse, to put up here?

Lastly, who thinks my 21st Century character incarnations I mentioned previously are pretty awesome? Sideswipe and Sunstreak as a Murcielago and Gallardo? Prowl as a 350 Z? As for the film shouldn’t Prowl have been the Saleen Cop Car?

I dont really care what car is who because as its been said before, this ain't g1 so prime could be a damn pimp my ride chevy van conversion for all I really care.

**DEAD**


LMAO!! prime a pimp my ride chevy van?? too hilarious!

*giggles* what is in the side of that thing?

looks like a tv..

that's...insane...

a tv that has a program that when u pull he lever u get 777 and it unlocks the door. its a vegas themed van

kinda...dumb..

whos gonna watch tv outside of their car, unless they have it on so people beside them can watch it when they stop at a light or something.

I suppose whatever floats their boat...I pimped my sofa, I got blue LED lights under it.

Looks like a construction vehicle to me.

Anyone going to specify exactly what Starscream is?

Starscream is a F-22A Raptor

Sorry just had to throw that out there.

And still I'm not going to shut up about how a movie 10 times worse seemed to get 80% of the automobile lisences in the world (2F2F) and I'm not going to shut up about the badgeless vehicle loophole.

Hmm. It seems the vehicle issue has been explained above, but I'd also like to point out that a lot of money has been spent on the visual effects for this movie, which wasn't so much of a cost factor for 2 Fast 2 Furious (if it's anything like the first in its series). It's probable that the budget didn't stretch to the Transformer CGI and securing deals with non-GM companies.

As for Jazz...well, if he dies in the first film I would like him to stay dead and not make a come back in any sequel.

Even if Starscream dies, I would want to see him stay dead...however, I wish they would not kill him off any time soon...or ever.

But I agree, if Jazz dies, he stays dead.

i agree with them staying dead, but i really dont want them too, cuuz jazz is awesome.

True, I feel the same for Starscream. But if whatever is keeping them alive, ie spark... is out, then realistically I would say they're perma-dead. Like any one of us, once we are dead...we're gone.

Well destroyed body does not = Extinguished spark.

I gotta tell ya, and I may get a warning for this, but the kid's made ten posts, and I'm already developing an aneuysm because of him.

Look, Rodimus_Raver, depsite what you may have heard THIS! IS! NOT! G1! And it nevewr will be. You may think they **** it up, but guess what? I like it. Yeah, I love every minute of it! So bitch all you want, I'll buy a couple of extra tickets for you, just to ensure they make a sequel.

And they already are.

And two things:

1. Don't even THINK I'm trying to bash your opinion, because you're trying to bash MINE.

2. Volkswagen made engines for the Nazis during WWII. They don't want to be in this movie because they're ashamed of having been associated with Hitler.

I wanna see prime as a ford van now, I like my idea.


I'm gonna call up bay and let him know. Speed dial

Chris you better not!!

I thought it was already confirmed that Bumblebee was a Camero because Bay didn't want him compared to Herbie? I can't remember where I read it but it seems like a pretty valid reason.

Well the original Bumblebee was repainted to look like Herbie.
