there is no god...

Will this one actually have transformers in it this time?

They need to create some ethnic autobots. Maybe an old low rider with a mexican accent.

If Meghan Fox is up in this bitch, then i'm all for it. Ditto, with Shia LaBeouf.

Of course, this film doesn't have a story, it's a coddamn Summer Blockbuster, the are ya'll expecting? There Will Be Blood or some shit?

This is the new millenium. The story had to be different and done with some current event references, ie Ebay. This was important to the kids that never seen the cartoons, because it gave them something to relate to. Besides, the cartoon is almost 3 decades old. How many movies have we seen of these old cartoons in which the setting, of the cartoon, takes place some many years ago; yet 90% of the time the movie takes place in modern day times. My neices, who are 5 and 8, watched the movie at my house and when they saw the car transform for the first time they were staring at the screen with their eyes wide open as well as their mouths. I asked them if they had ever seen the cartoon before, and they said no. Yet they were still in awe at the technology that they had just witnessed.

IMO, it trumped Spiderman 3, and has yet to be trumped by any other movie of its kind, past or present. Stop being so critical. The movie was awesome that is why it broke the record for most DVD sales. Now, let's see what they can do with Voltron.

I had my own gripes with the movie, but still enjoyed it. When I first Michael Bay was doing this I really thought it was going to be bad. But it turned out to be better than expected. Visual Effects wise, I can't think of any other movie that could top it during the summer of 2007. Story wise, it wasn't that great but still enjoyable.

For a movie that made over 700+ million, I don't think it should be trashed so easily. The fans were pleased, Paramount was extremely happy with outcome and a sequel is being filmed as we speak to be released next year and not 5 years from now.

Visual effects wise, this should top the first movie.

Ah, yes the "it must be quality because a lot of people saw it" argument.

Go grab the numbers for "Norbit" and get back to me on that one, k?

nothing crazy good of a movie, but took me back to when action films were just crazy fun.

wait... I'm contradicting myself... nvm, the girl was hot.

The first one was horrible, but I'm as much to blame for a sequel as anyone seeing as I bought it on HD-DVD, what a terrible decision that was.

But it doesn't really matter how good or bad a film is these days, if it makes money then there will be sequels.

I don't understand the line "by the matrix" in the VGcats comic. Do they mean, "BUY the Toyota Matrix" i.e. a joke about product placement? Or is it a reference to the film?

What a shit subtitle. I hope they dump that.

Anyways, I liked TF1 and wouldn't change it at all, but I would like them to change tone/pace a bit for the sequel and focus more on the Transformers themselves (which I'd like to see at least twice as many of in part 2). More battles, less masturbation and piss gags. And absolutely, for the love of , 100% less Linkin Park songs. Please. And an infinite increase in orchestrated versions of the old TV show theme.

Also, Arcee, yeah.

I can only assume they're referencing the Autobot Matrix of Leadership.

No no... they meant the creation matrix.

I doubt they will drop the subtitle. Megan was too crispy in the movie.

Not all of the music was from Linkin Park. The Album was good and the score was great.

I am really curious how are they going to introduce new transformer life forms (born on earth) or does everyone arrive from Cybertron?

Never said it was. I just singled them out as being especially heinous. I want 100% less of all forms of teen angst rock in TF2, period.

Also, I liked the score, too.

To elaborate a bit on ITDEFX's comment, it's an exclamation. Replace 'matrix' w/ 'gods' (or if your a Star Wars fan, 'Maker') and you'll get it.

Subtitle is horrid, but I can't wait for this film

I'd rather just watch the new cartoon.

Honestly, the hideous robot designs are what stopped me from seeing the first and will keep me from the second.

Seriously? "Revenge of the Fallen"? Why not call it a more kick your ass name like:

Transformers 2: F*** Tha Police

ROOOOOOOOAOAAAAARRR.

hehe, last time I was very close to a filming location was back in 1998 in Miami during the "There's something about Mary".

So where is that pention to get Susan Blu to do the voice of Arcee?

Probably Cybertron. IIRC, the 1st one mentioned Cybertron was destroyed & that they were scattered through out the galaxy looking for the allspark. Then at the end, Prime urged all Autobots throughout the galaxy to come to earth.

One thing I wish would be part of the sequel would be Megatron coming back as Galvatron due to the allspark changing him. No mention yet if Starscream is the new leader or someone entirely new(Soundwave?).

I don't think Cybertron was "destroyed" but more ravaged by the war between the two factions. I have mixed feelings with Megatron coming back as Galvatron.
If we had a hint at the end of the first movie of this, ok, but I think Megatron is dead and won't come back. That doesn't mean that Frank Welker can't voice other decepticons right?

Starscream will be back and if the title suggests, he will be back with a full armada of deceptions to give the autobots hell. I really want to see the constructions form devistator.
