big spoilers inside (entire story inside!!!!)


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformers_2
Two years after the events of the first film, the Autobots alongside the British and American military have joined forces to form an organization named NEST to combat the Decepticons hiding out on Earth. Optimus Prime leads NEST into Shanghai, China, to eliminate several Decepticons. He is joined by newcomers including Arcee, Sideswipe, Jolt and the Twins Skids & Mudflap. Optimus kills Demolishor but not before the Decepticon utters that the Fallen will "rise again". American National Security Advisor Galloway berates the Autobots and NEST, suggesting that the Autobots leave. While Optimus does agree to this if the President of the United States of America commands this, he questions what will happen if the planet is left defenceless. Soundwave, a Decepticon intelligence officer, hacks into a satellite and discovers the location of Megatron's corpse and the location of a piece of the AllSpark, the source of the Transformers' existence. Soundwave deploys his minion Ravage to retrieve the shard, which he succeeds in accomplishing. The Constructicons and a surgeon-robot named Scalpel revive Megatron. Megatron flies to a Decepticon spacecraft where he is reunited with air commander Starscream and the Fallen, Megatron's master. The Fallen intends to destroy the Sun and Earth in the process.
Sam Witwicky heads off to college in an attempt to live a normal life. Whilst packing, he finds another shard of the AllSpark which fills his mind with ancient Cybertronian text. The AllSpark fragment also brings kitchen equipment to life, although they are destroyed by Sam's guardian Bumblebee. Sam entrusts the shard to his girlfriend Mikaela, who hides it in her father's safe at a motorcycle garage. Decepticon Wheelie tries to steal it, but is captured by Mikaela. At college, Sam meets his roommate Leo Spitz who runs an alien conspiracy website, and a girl named Alice who makes disturbing advances on Sam. Sam begins to constantly see Cybertronian text, writing it on everything, and has a mental breakdown in his astronomy class. Mikaela comes to Sam's aid, just as he is nearly killed by Alice, revealed to be a Decepticon Pretender. Mikaela disposes of Alice, but Sam, Mikaela and Leo are confronted by Megatron, Starscream and Scalpel. As Scalpel prepares to dissect Sam's brain to get information on the location of a new Energon signal, Optimus and the other Autobots arrive. Optimus takes on all of the Decepticons but is severely wounded by Megatron, entering stasis lock. The Decepticons invade the planet, the Fallen demanding that Sam be surrendered. Meanwhile, Galloway shuts down NEST, and Sam's parents are captured by Rampage in Paris.
Sam, Mikaela, Leo, Bumblebee, Wheelie and the Twins escape being captured and Leo suggests seeking the help of his website rival "RoboWarrior", who is revealed to be former Sector Seven Agent Simmons. Simmons reveals his hidden archive of alien research and explains the history of the Transformers on Earth. It is explained by Wheelie that the language Sam sees is of the Dynasty of Primes, the original thirteen Transformers, who powered the AllSpark like a battery by destroying suns. Wheelie leads the group to Jetfire, an old Decepticon called a Seeker who defects to the Autobots, along with Wheelie. Upon learning the situation, Jetfire uses a Space Bridge to teleport the group to Egypt. He explains that the Primes used the suns to power the AllSpark by using machines called Sun Harvesters, which were powered by the Matrix of Leadership. However, the Fallen betrayed them, and sparked the war for the AllSpark. The other Primes defeated the Fallen and then killed themselves to seal away the Matrix, the tomb hidden somewhere in the desert.
Through clues, the Matrix is found in Petra but it crumbles to dust in Sam's hands. Nevertheless, Sam piles the dust into his sock. Simmons contacts Major William Lennox and his troops and asks them to bring the Autobots and Optimus' corpse to Egypt so Optimus can be revived, a Prime being the only one capable of killing the Fallen. The military arrive but so do the Decepticons. Leo, Simmons and the Twins face off against Devastator, the combined form of the Constructicons, who scales a pyramid to unearth the Sun Harvester. Devastator is ultimately destroyed by a rail gun round fired from a nearby destroyer on Simmons' orders. Bumblebee rescues Sam's parents, and kills both Rampage and Ravage. Aerial reinforcements are summoned, killing Long Haul, Scrapper, and Hightower. However, Sam is caught in the attack and is severely injured; in his unconscious state, he has a vision of the Dynasty of Primes. Sam reawakens, telling Mikaela that he loves her just as the Matrix regenerates, and Sam uses it to revive Optimus; however, before Optimus can be fully revived, the Fallen travels through a space bridge and takes the Matrix back out of Optimus' spark. Jetfire fights and kills Scorponok, but is mortally wounded, so gives up his own spark and parts to Optimus, giving him the strength to destroy the Sun Harvester and kill the Fallen. Megatron and Starscream make a tactical retreat. The film concludes with Optimus proclaiming that the Transformers and humans now share an untold history and will combine their differences.
 
[quote name='Scrubsy']Bay makes like 8% on all transformers movie and merchandise sales, I think he will suck it up and do the third one.[/QUOTE]


damn... how much does Lucas get for Star Wars Toy sales?
 
[quote name='lokizz']so did you hear the one about the transformer with a gold tooth who couldnt read lmao. seriously fucked up shit but not surprising since its a bay film. way to perpetuate those stereotypes!!!!!!

kinda spoilersih but very amusing in a sad way.

:roll:

ok......Bay time to let someone else direct the next movie...

So where is the Mikela action figures? or are they pulling the same shit like last time, where they weren't going to make any :(
 
[quote name='Frogurt.man']All of it.[/QUOTE]


alot of the cast from the original film are still pissed over that shit because they more or less signed over all rights to any of the merchandise and their liknesses in the film.
 
Got my tickets for imax on Thursday morning. Looking forward to mindless robot battle...!!

Im surprised with the backlash, and not just casual anger, seems like people are going out of there way multiple times to post and post how much they hate fun.
 
I went to the premiere...well unfortunately didn't get to see the movie...I was there for the LP concert. It was awesome...I guess the event was being taped and Shia was around there, didn't see anyone though.
 
I forgot to mention...I saw this on my way to the show:

I was talking to my friend who worked on the some of the movie's textures.

From what he told me he worked on parts of Soundwave, and the kitchen bots.

Told me to call him after the movie to talk about it :)

He saw the IMAX version on Saturday :|
 
[quote name='tiredfornow']Yeowch. Looks like its getting shit on all over the internets.

Skip for me.[/QUOTE]

You're surprised? And you're making your decision to see a movie like Transformers based on film critic's reviews?

Yeah, go ahead and skip this one, because you're obviously not in the right mindset for it.
 
I don't know, CoffeeBooger, that dude on aintitcool.com loves Michael Bay and loved the first Transformers movie. I know what a "turn your brain off and pretend its alot less shitty than it really was" movie is and the reviews for this are terrible.
 
I'm probably going to see Megan Fox's rack this movie anyway. I mean, it's a popcorn flick, nothing more. Maybe this weekend.
 
i did turn my mind off for the first one i basically fell asleep lol. i know some movies are just what they are these films are just so bad its impossible for me to shut my mind off that much. i tried it with the last indiana jones film but they slap you in the face with so much stupid bs i cant see how anyone can watch these movies and not be insulted. its like theyre basically insulting your inteligence with each scene but to each his own.
 
comingsoon.net gave it a 5 out of 10 :|

I am wondering where this "Biggest explosion ever done in a movie..."scene that was put into the world's record gonna be in the movie?

If the twins are fucking annoying, I AM NOT BUYING THE TOYS!
 
Well put, thank you. Everybody shut the hell up and either go see it or stay at home and bitch to someone who cares! I will be there at least twice. It is a movie, a summer blockbuster movie. The first one wasn't that bad. The ones to follow will be deeper, I'm sure. Funny thing is, everyone here complaining will still go see it.
 
The rendering demands for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen were such that some ILM computers didn't not survive according to a new article from SciFi Wire. Sections below, full article here.

Did Linkin write this?:lol:
 
Just got my IMAX tickets for Friday. I can't wait but I'm expecting to have a love/hate relationship like I did with the first one.
 
Just saw a prescreening of it, I absolutely hated it. Lots of boring parts, lame fights save for one and there are lot of really annoying Jar Jar Binks like characters. I'm glad Bay is done with this series, he really fucked up this one.
 
[quote name='LinkinPrime']I'm off to get in line...going in with lower expectations :whistle2:([/QUOTE]

Let us know how it is man. Looking forward to your thoughts.

I agree. People cant enjoy movies anymore. Everyone is a critic and even more so they can post it up on the net everywhere.
 
Meh, I saw it. It was exactly the same as the first one, only without the initial excitement of seeing big CGI robots.

I also love how "the most secure bunker on the planet" has an unguarded vent that anyone can access :roll:
 
[quote name='VipFREAK']^I don't get why you'd think transformers 2 would be any less of a FAIL then the frist...[/QUOTE]


I never really thought it would be less fail, just on par with the first movie's fail. I enjoy the first one for it's aesthetic qualities, that's all. The second one didn't really even have that going for it...
 
Fair enough. I don't get why Bay thought it would be a good idea to make a second one. It's like the Pink Panther 2 or Night at the Museum 2... Why?
 
just came back

uhh

Lots of plot holes....bigger than the first.

The special effects were amazing as always...nothing as jaw dropping as the scene where the enterprise emerges from the rings part.

God damn it, I HATE THE TWINS!!!!

Two years later and Rachet still can't make Bumblebee talk?!?!?!

Mikela doesn't know he still has problems talking?? it's been two years!?!?

Way too much humping ...from dogs to bot on legs :( come on Bay, GROW UP!!

Dr. Claw is SOUNDWAVE :( This is 25 years later, are you telling me Skywalker sound or Ben Burt can't recreate the effect used to make Frank Welker's voice into the one we known and loved? So we get doctor Claw instead :(

Ironhide takes FOREVER to transform...yet Prime can do it and get to the point.

No trailer for Prime :( *sigh*

Arcee is not voiced by Susan Blu...WTF?!?!?! Bad...Mr. Bay...very bad!! first you fuck up Soundwave, then this.......what's next??? oh...wait...


DEVISTATOR HAS BALLS!!!!! and they clank!!!

Powered up/Hulk Prime looked ok.

Decepticon HQ is what looks like a crashed ship on one of Saturns moons...not on Mars.

Megatron's resurrection scene felt so cheap...may have been ruined by the trailers. They just off another con for spare parts, plug them in and stick in a shard and Megatron is up and running at 100%

The forest fight was very cool. I really wished Prime would have been caught off gaurd by the sight of the resurrected Megatron.

Bumblebee did a lot of asswhooping. Poor Ravage. :(

The world now knows about the transformers.

Blowing up that town was the really big boom...damn that's big.

Rachett and Ironhide had very little dialog ...less than the first one.

Soundwave is still in orbit.

Megatron got fucked up on his right side of his face by Optimus Hulk, looks like he is missing an eye. Starscream suggests a retreat and Megatron agrees. No end credits scene to find out what happened to them (where as the graphic novel shows Megatron activating more protoforms.)

Too much screen time with the twins. :bomb:

Very nice bickering scene between Megatron and Starscream...just like in the classic G1 series.

Hugo Weaver didn't sound as menacing as he did in TF1...hmm..

Overall an OK movie...

Who wins the best movie for the summer of 2009? Star Trek hands down!

BTW...hate the overused LP "New Divide" theme..makes me angry!!
 
[quote name='VipFREAK']Fair enough. I don't get why Bay thought it would be a good idea to make a second one. It's like the Pink Panther 2 or Night at the Museum 2... Why?[/QUOTE]


There's no way they're going to stop at two, either. The end of the second sets us up for a third.

At this point, I'm convinced the third Transformers movie is going to be a two hour long Linkin Park music video featuring some robots drinking new Mountain Dew flavors and transforming into the 2011 GMC models.
 
driving home now. loved the first movie. hated this one. way too much childish humor. too many sex jokes. we get it, megan fox is hot.
 
[quote name='Sofa King Kool']Meagan Fox needs to shut the fuck up and run in slow motion.[/QUOTE]

She does. Several times. With explosions in the background. I'm not going to complain about that, it was nice.
 
Just got done seeing it at IMax, overall I liked it more then the first one because it had what the first one didn't AKA hot robot on robot action. Though this movie also could've cut out like 45 minutes or so of pointless awful comedy and stupid ass subplots.

What I liked.
-Optimus Prime is like a fucking GOD! Jesus he made the movie for me, but then again Peter Cullen is what I expect God to sound like. He was just whooping ass all over the place and couldn't just stop with just one, but ALL of them.

What I disliked.
-So many of the subplots were pointless. The "I Love You" thing, ALL of the college scenes (INCLUDING the pretender) and the swarmy presidental representative were not necessary in the movie and bogged it down. They contributed nothing to the movie and if taken out could've put the movie at a more managable 90 or so minutes.
-95% Of the humor was just terrible. The midget joke, the robot humping, the twins and all of the antics of Sam's roommate were just so damn faceplam worthy.
-Where the fuck was Barricade and why is it all the "dead" Decepticons are back with no explanation (anyone notice Bonecrusher in vehicle form was back from the grave)? Plus nice knowing you Sideways, for those 30 seconds I mean. That and Scorpinok is what takes down Jetfire?
-Wait, wait! So Sam is the only one who can wield the Matrix of Leadership and in a sense makes him leader of Autobots? Are you serious?
-Hey! Here's Jolt!
-Plot holes out the ass.
-Sam argues with his parents to go and be safe. Megan Fox just says "I'm not going without you!" That's all Sam needs to keep her around instead of making her safe.

I May have complaints, but Optimus made the movie for me. Just wish they could've cut down on ALOT of the movie and humor.
 
Awesome! Some things I disliked but it was one sweet ass movie!

EDIT: Was there anything at the end of the credits? I waited but the damn movie theater people prematurely shut the projector off.
