awesome. i didn't think this was airing until next week.. i got it confused with the dvd release.
i didn't want to ruin this by watching it on my computer screen.. i'd rather see it for the first time on a big tv.
i'm excited.

I can't get over the crappy editing work done in that promo, in the beginning with Optimus.

Okay, I know most of us have seen this movie - as have I. Nevertheless, would it kill you to put up spoiler tags for those who haven't?![:roll:]( "Rolling Eyes")
Edit: Thanks.

I was pretty happy with this movie. Loved the character development. Can't say I'm overjoyed by this ending but overall impressed with the entire movie. ![:BOT:]( "Autobot")

Just watched it and it was awesome. I was still hoping one of the main Autobots got killed off, as in actually killed off. Because, if this movie was, in fact meant to set up a new series, we can assume that Optimus is coming back some way or another. Also, what happened to Shockwave?

Personally I look forward to see what tonight's airing could offer as some rumored that it contains different, new scenes from the leaked.
My opinions however for leaked Predacon Rising:-
1) It could have been better. Despite the all Unicron, zombiness, it lacks a dire situation feeling. There's a scene of Arcee casually saying what to do when Unicron comes, with her casual stance as if this was just another Tuesday.
2) Suppose to have scene of total hopelessness, where they tried everything, everyone participated and utterly failed.
3) Should have characters dying. To me, Ultra Magnus and Shockwave most certainly should have died. Ultra Magnus after his grieve injury, never made any significance after that, only lying on the medic bed. Heck, even during the final speech, he didn't say a single word. Might as well killed him off to create impact.
Same goes for Shockwave. He has no significance impact that he did after surviving the massacre. The line he gave to the predacon, could easily be given by Predaking through a different speech. He doesn't need to survive the attack.
4) Aladdin's trick to trap Jafar. It came out of nowhere. At least they could hinted that several times. All the sudden, he got trapped inside the lamp. Nice.
It couldn't compete with One Shall Stand the 3 parters.

Well overall, I thought it was good.
And, unlike the others, I thought the ending was appropriate.
I do, however, agree with zwann on a few items:
1. There definitely was a lack of urgency by either the Autobots or Unicron. WRT the former, even Ratchet had to say that their number 1 priority was finding Unicron/Megatron, which is something that you'd say, "Duh!," yet wasn't apparent to the rest of the Autobots. WRT the latter, why did he waste time fighting the Autobots on Darkmount? Why did he not just head straight for the heart of Cybertron?
2. Ultra Magnus did practically disappear after he got hurt. Having him die from his injuries would have made the situation have a feel of being more dire.
3. There was no reason to have Shockwave survive the attack by the Terrorcons. If he had died, it would've made the Unicron threat more of a TF-wide thing, rather than just the Autobots, the 3 Predacons, & Knockout.

Last night the Beast Hunters Predacons Rising feature aired for the first time on the Hub network, before the release of the Blu-Ray and DVD on October 8th. For those of you who were able to watch it, check out jON3.0's brief review - and for everyone's enjoyment, here's a brief clip uploaded by the official Transformers YouTube channel, looking at the creation of Predaking!

And I have now lost any and all interest in getting this because I'd feel like I was missing out on something.

I wonder if this will ever be included in some sort of ULTIMATE BOX SET!!!! ![:michaelbay:]( "Blowing Stuff Up")
I guess they don't usually include the movie tie-in, but it'd be nice to have one slim set, rather than 4 different sets of DVDs. ![:BANG_HEAD:]( "Frustration")
Anyway, I'm thinking the collectable cards are better. Those snippets (Beast bites) are available online (and aren't very good), and the extras usually disappoint me.
Then again, I shudder to think of how badly the cards might have been done...![:SICK:]( "Sick")

I picked up my copy at Target, not knowing it was sold anywhere else... I guess I figured that the movie, like the toyline, would be a store exclusive.
Oddly enough, the "Predacons Rising" endcap had been taken down, and the toys were back in their usual section. The movie was in the regular Audio/Video/Game department.
Also, there was a coupon attached to the front that gave $5 off any Transformers toy purchase. I used it to pick up Darksteel, since I didn't have him.
