Quantcast



No doubt many of you have seen the summer blockbuster Transformers movie by now. The majority of people have enjoyed the movie while a lot of the old farts (cough*Niero*cough) didn't enjoy it to much. Personally, I loved the movie and am looking forward to the sequels bound to follow.

SPOILER ALERT!: 

Towards the end of the movie, during the final action sequence, main character Sam Witwicky is running through the streets carrying the Allspark when he accidental triggers the Allspark. The Allspark has the ability to bring to life human electronics and turn them into Transformers. In the clip above, Sam inadvertently brings to life a car, a Mountain Dew machine and an Xbox 360. It's short and quick, but it was oddly satisfying seeing that happen. 

[Thanks to my BFF Havik for the clip!]

Possibly more spoilers...

Maybe the 360 will be one of the main Decepticons in the sequel along with Starscream (considering he never died...)

Ok Look I won't go on a BIG rant on the many things wrong with this movie but consider this.......When Sam accidentally triggers the allspark why the hell are every single thing that Transforms automatically bad robots. all of them. Does that mean that all robot s are bad and against us umm obviously no because we have the auto bots so why the hell did they all turn against the people and not take a side with either the autobots or the decepticons! Errr now I am ranting look what you made me do!!!! Jesus even Micheal Bay reused exact same footage and or jokes or just things that had happened from his other films come on be original!!!

product placement FTL! only thing wrong with the movie was the ridiculous amount of product placement (GM, Nokia, Mountain Dew, Xbox). who the hell would walk out of a store carrying a 360 like a cake box?

all that aside, still the best movie of the year.

Nope Prime already said it was the spark of life for all life on cybertron so that theory is out the window. In reality it was a cutsey way for Micheal Bay to suck Corprate cock! It was written in belive me I know I work for a company right now that is doing all the stuff for the Transformers DVD I have read the original script and I can tell ya the original script was much better. It just had the Sam Witwicky story and lots of autobots...not Bay trying to rehash some of his old movies. Bay = Douche

Yeah, I was wondering why all of the new bots were evil too. But, in the end, I didn't really care that much. It was an awesome movie, and I'm glad I went and seen it. To be honest, I hated the Transformer cartoons, so I naturally thought this, being a live action translation of a cartoon, would be horrible. But it was actually good. The cartoons still suck in my opinion though, sorry.

@ DM_L I agree and the more people say this was the best movie ever the worse movie's like this are going to be ..I actually heard someone mutter the phrase Bay is Back!! My jaw hit the floor.This movie had LOTS of problems and LOTS or rehashes of Bay's other films which also were not that great the only one worth mentioning is The Rock.Transformers: The Movie was done in 1986 and this is nothing like that. While I can forgive some faults I can not forgive bad film making and he had it in folds in this movie. Take for instance the scene with Prowler and Bumble Bee. If you see it twice (god help you) you will notice that when they hop in the car it is light out but when they turn a corner seconds later...it is pitch black dark. I was like ummm what? Jesus.This is not the mark of a good film maker.

@ tazarthayoot......coming from the guy posting on a video game website. Look I have a girlfriend maybe you can't read or don't want to but either way you should read the part were I said the place I am working at is doing the DVD!!! Therefore of course I know wtf is going on in the movie it just doesn't gel right. There are some major problems with the way it is shot and the story line.I am not saying any one is stupid for saying it is a fun movie because there are parts that are fun but then there are parts that well blow donkey balls!!! @ s0lesurviv0r nope dude sorry no Frank Welker any where near it but there is a kinda cool thing on the history of the toys. Did you know that Hasbro bought the Gobots. And then used them in name only with in the Transformers toy line.... the more you know.

@sunami88 I take it serious when some one puts a shit load of cash in a film and then touts it around as changing the way movies are made. Bay is full of himself and shit. I work in the film industry so yeah I will call it a big deal to me because if America likes it then the Studio jump all over that shit and want sequels (which God willing we will get one with more actual Transformers). I agree that there does need to be some kinda human aspect to the story you can't show a movie of Optimus sitting around with Bumble Bee talkng about his problems. No one wants to see that shit except for maybe tazarthayoot up there who either can't or won't get the dick planted so far up his ass to read before he posts. All I am saying is that the movie isn't this end all be all I think the best movie I saw all sumer has been Knocked Up. Two Completely different types of movies mind you so it may be a tad unfair to compare them but still that is just one ass holes openion but at the very least it is an educated and informed one.
P.S. tazarthayoot YOU LOOK LIKE OLD MAN'S BALLS

Product Placement aside, the movie was ok. But it certainly didn't stand up to the expectations hardcore fans expected. It, like all other licensed crap, changed way too much. Uwe Boll may as well have made it. But, wait, he only ruins video game movies... silly me.

Bitches, it was a great movie.

Would you rather have them looking like boxy pieces of shit or fully animatronic, life like robots that you'd be scared shitless if you saw them and they were real.

Thought so bitches.

I went to see the movie trying to be open minded and (trying) to temporarily pretend I was 5 again. I really wasn't expecting to see a 1:1 conversion of the cartoon show I watched as a child. I expected there to be a new shiny coat of paint on the entire project. In the end I enjoyed the movie, sure I could nitpick it to death about some overly cheesy lines used and almost painfully corny moments, but as a whole I enjoyed the film...

Now the problem is my young fogey senses are telling me its all wrong!!! Where was the Energon cubes, why didn't Starscream sound like a whiney little bitch? Bumbleebee wasn't a VW bug!? Bah!!! Where's my malt-o-meal... damn kids with their dungarees and Bee-Gee's albums. When I was a kid metal toys that had small chocking hazards were a bonus. It meant you could mercilessly beat other kids with a heavy metal object and expect them to choke to death from it.... kids now days are wimps... where's my pillow... i need to take a nap, why are my balls so wrinkly? hmm sleep.........

I was commenting on that remark and that remark alone you ignorant bastard.

@Sunami88
Again that is your opinion (and you are welcome to it). I work for a company that has done the DVD's for Band of Brothers, Knocked up , Transformers, Borat,Pirates 1,2,3,Ocean's 12 and 13, Black Hawk Down, Die Hard 4, and Lost Season 3 look us up go online all you want I am sure you can figure out who it is I work for. It is a "supposed" trilogy but I can tell you this they have re written the shit outta the first one they wrote and it didn't have any one in it other then Sam the incredibly hot Megan Fox and Autobots and Decepticons. So I hate to think what kind of re write could come out of another one.Or how much crap Bay could sell from it.With rewrites in LA it each different writter looks at it takes what they like and dumps the rest of the story so as of right now they dont have anything for a 2nd or 3rd one.

Look, it wasn't an award winning movie, save for perhaps in special effects because they were awesome, but it was still a great, cheesy, fun movie. How can anyone argue that? Hell, I hated Transformers, but I thought the movie was awesome. So, it deserves respect for being able to make me not completely hate them anymore. How can you not like Optimus Prime saying "My bad." or some of the other cheesy lines? It's was just a pure straight up fun to watch movie.

You all realise that like 90% of this movie would have been irrelevant if the decepticons had thought of actually buying the damn glasses off of eBay right?
Also why did they decide to go into the middle of the HEAVILLY POPULATED city to have the final battle?

The retarded script aside did anybody else notice that in the second shot of the movie there was a guy listening to an Ipod? It took him like 3 seconds to place a product.

Witwiki wasn't bad though.

I liked the corny parts, but Bay and his shitty characters made me want to run up to the screen and tear it down. Shia Lebeouf was entertaining, but you know what? Every other human character was awful and unnecessary. Sector 7 was incredibly, mind-numbingly dumb.

Hey, Bay, you know what's really neat about Transformers? I mean, you're obviously a fan, since you gave them a whole 30 minutes screen time, but get a load of this: the franchise already comes with a storyline! Incredible.

I also found it exceedingly creepy when all the Transformers fapped to Shia and his girl making out on Bumblebee's hood at the end.

@ Nocturnal_XVIII

If the Decepticons did in fact simply wait and purchase the glasses off eBay, they also would have had to wait for the kid to package and ship them the glasses. By the time he probably got around to doing all of that the Autobots would have probably been there and picked them up themselves.
