Honestly, by now I've seen both of them so many times it wouldn't really make a difference. Might watch like the ending fights of both though, I liked those...

I haven't seen either in a while so I'll be sure to watch them again before DotM.

I'm planning on watching the first film today, and then ROTF either next weekend or the week after. Then I'll wait a week past the release date to see DOTM, 'cause every time I see a movie in a crowded theatre I end up arguing with some jerk who won't stop talking...

So yeah, I like to wait until the crowds thin out a bit. Less "theatre rage" that way.

I watch both movies periodically. It's rare that the first movie ever comes out of my 5 disc changer. But, I'll probably watch both, June 29 and June 30th. I plan to hightail it to Ft Lauderdale right after work on July first.

I hate going to the theater for the same reason, but I've noticed with the Transformers movies that doesn't happen. Everybody stays quiet throughout, even the kids.

I really thought ROTF was a confusing title, it has three meanings

1. Megatron's Revenge
2. Revenge of living Decepticons from Mission city
3. The Fallen's Revenge

It's just confusing

I remember the audience in RotF being pretty damn loud, mind you this was everyone cheering at the all the awesome on screen and generally getting really into the movie. It's other films where I see the audience quiet except for the usual screaming kids and chatters. :-?

Or, you could twist it as Optimus's revenge too, since he had fallen at the hands of Megatron for a while, and soon as he was reborn, damn, he got serious revenge, didn't he!

As much as I hate ROTF I am wondering if the narrative tightens up some from a big picture perspective.

The movie has been $10 at Target from time to time and I just can't bring myself to buy it even at that price.

Events in DOTM shore up a greater timeline issue my friend and I were discussed after our first viewing. It took a second viewing to sort some of those initial issues out. Hard to fathom that there really is a timeline that works when all laid out that's the only reason I might have to rewatch ROTF.

Any pieces from ROTF fit into DOTM or help explain some things? Like how Shockwave and Driller are just 'there'?
