I personally find the Eye on the Planet poster to be the best looking one so far.

The 'eye over Earth' is pretty cool, but you can't go wrong with Prime's mug, I reckon.

Im sure THIS is the final movie poster, and will be used in theaters for the actual movie screening

The designs suck and it's typical for faction sided movies, so, ok.

Yup, I'm pretty sure you're right - the text on the bottom tells me it's final, though the "coming soon" seems to contradict that, you don't see that too often on final posters. I hope you're right anyway, because like I said many times before, the other hand-through-the-wall poster sucked ass.
This one rocks though.

Agreed, this seems like an appropriate final poster.

I like these new posters...even Megatron's look is growing on me.

I've always liked Megatron's head, especially seeing close up pics like this, it sure makes me glad they changed it from what we could have been stuck with...

Maybe so, but is it much better to have Megs' "battle mode" head dress look near identical to Skeletor's in the old live action movie from the 80's?Skowl wrote:featofstrength wrote:I like these new posters...even Megatron's look is growing on me.

Agreed! Even if you wanted a G1 head design, you have to admit that this change was for the better.

Looks better than the crappy one we are cursed with here in the U.S.

For what it was, the MOTU film was pretty good.
But the final fight scene is a joke, even as an 8 year-old.

That cant be a final poster theres no date. It might be a preview poster but the final once normaly have the release dates on them.
And this "megatron" looks like a robot predalien from avp to me. Out of all the megs this is the worse one. I just hope they do his personality right.

The US might still get a better poster. Being in Canada, we are likely to get this, since we sometimes get the "international" versions of posters at theatres. We did for Ghost Rider and a few other movies... And oddly enough, alot of the "international" posters end up sharing the same design as the domestic one. I can think of alot of movies like that... the new Star Wars films, the list is long...
Sometimes, the final movie poster for a film doesn't have the date, or has the wrong date, or has the "coming soon" thing. Case in point, the final poster for X-men (the first one) and X-men 3 didn't have a date on it, neither did any of the final posters for the new Star Wars trilogy films... neither did some of the most famous "final" movie posters ever made, like The Usual Suspects, Forrest Gump, Brokeback Mountain, Gandhi, Jurassic Park, Raging Bull, The Shawshank Redemption, etc. etc.
Not that I think this film - or this poster - will even hold a candle to those movies...

The Jarassic Park one had the date. I had one that was in a theater and it had the date. And there were Star War ones with the date. My friend has one from ep3 that his brother stole from the theater he use to work at that has the date. And half thoses movies i never saw the posters for but you are right about the X-Men ones. I just thought by now all the posters would have the dates. All the posters ive seen at the movies have the dates on them.All but the ones that are comeing out in a few mounths. We've know almost since day 1 that the movie was comeing out on 7-4-7 so why are there posters with out the date? And how is brokeback mountain in this conversation? And how is it better than a movie that isnt out yet? Its not even in the same genra as transformers. JP,Forrest, and shawshank are some of the greatst movies of all time.So you cant comopare TF with them. This film needs to be compared to lesser movies like Jurassic Park 2, and ID4. Films that were good but not the best films of all time.

Sector 7 just updated their "emails" under the "CodeBlack" password. The email is as follows...
The email also had this poster embedded within it... but, if you click on it, it brings up a High Resolution version of the Prime/Megs/humans International Poster! (1620x2400)

Operation Hungry Dragon 2 has begun its global initiative. Attached to this email you will find our new international "movie poster". We need to infiltrate the other side of the ocean before they do.
We're still conducting investigations of every protestor who tried to disrupt our ground campaign -- they will be neutralized. Unfortunately, our latest intel finds the level of anti-Sector-Seven feelings on the rise, no doubt thanks to X's increasing ranks of operatives.

Whether Brokeback Mountain or Shawshank Redemption ar the same genre as Transformers doesn't matter, the point I was trying to make is that not all final movie poster have dates on them - I just took those films as example because they are some of the more famous movie posters that people will remember. I also have a poster of Star Wars Ep.III that I got from the theatre, but mine doesn't have the date on it. It may be because, since I live in Canada, we technically got the international poster, which had no date but kept the same poster design - which is what my theory is for the TF poster. Same design as the international one, but it may have the date on it instead.
Usually, the style of a movie poster (as in, whether or not the release date is present) is not determined by the quality of the movie.
Interesting, I will front page this right away - I wonder if "Sector Seven" will let us know if there is still another domestic final movie poster on the way - the email almost reads like there could be one...

That could be. I live in New York so it is possible that we got diffrent posters. And what i was saying with the genre thing is that you cant compair a movie that isnt out yet with movies that are not in the same class. You cant compaur TF with Shawshank just like you can cant compare Spiderman 3 with Shrek. Two diffrent genras and two diffrent movie classes.

maybe final international posters dont have dates because all the dates might be different? shrug.
the new poster...meh. I like the old star wars one because it took the eyen in a nice round motion. This design takes the eye up and down and all around.
Megatron looks small and like he has been lifted and is being "squished" against the the ceiling, Scorponok is..in a strange spot. There are two items besides the sun causing flare? what are the the two? at least make the flare coming -from- something...like a gun barrel or energy source. Too many vertical lines, too busy for me.
The eye one is still the best.
