BB is a mute that can only speak through music while in his alt mode.

Hey, Siebs, tell me you'll have it up prior to/around 2:30am :PRAY: . I'm stuck at work, and that's my next break.

Okay, I just got back from dinner with Ben Yee (bwtf.com) and Kevin and Jason Lukis (unicron.com). Kevin and Jason just left the bar downstairs and now it's time for me to work before I hit the sack. Man, tomorrow is going to suck for sleep.

I still think the robots could have been designed better ... but after watching the Autobots interact in a scene that I won't mention here, I'm convinced finally that the movie guys got it right.

You're suprised by the change of heart? ;;)

Of course it's ironic that people who condemned the movie based on un-finished material now seem to be praising it based on the opinions of others who have only seen a small sampling.

Most of us based how the movie would be on the look of the bots

Hey guys,

I've written about 1/2 of my review of the "event" so far. I haven't gotten to writing about the incredible scenes that we saw at the theatre. I'm falling asleep writing this since I only got about 4 hours of sleep last night and have been up since 7 this morning (Eastern). I have a long day of traveling tomorrow and will have plenty of time to finish writing my review then. I'm going to get some sleep tonight and promise that there'll be a review up on the site within 24 hours. New York kicked my ass. It's been a blast but I'm beat!

Ok, this I find very interesting ...

I asked, "Why is Optimus Prime a long nose Peter-built model rather than the classic flat-nose version?" Bay responded explaining that the flat-nose version would not allow Prime to realistically transform into the 28-foot tall robot they were looking for. The classic look gave Prime a height of only 23 feet, while the longer nose gives Prime more to work with when transforming. This height difference was a factor in keeping Megatron and Prime in the proper scale to each other.


Damn, if I'd known Bay wanted a TALL Optimus I would've sent him MY design! Its based on a Peterbilt VERY close to the movie's, (MINUS the flames!) and is surprisingly faithful to G1 OP. I actually went to a Peterbilt yard with my measuring tape, did the numbers, and mine came out at 36 feet, give or take about 2 feet.

It wasn't a small sampling. It was about 25 minutes of film. 4 different scenes. Sure, there's a lot that we haven't seen but what I did see was absolutely incredible. I still think there were better ways to do the robot modes but what I saw tonight was mind blowing. I get it now. Now I understand what they were trying to tell us when they said "you need to wait until you see this in person, see a Transformer transform."
