Transformers got a stading ovation... *SPOILER WARNING*

I just got back, the theatre I want to also gave a standing ovation with cheers and claps. I personally didn't care about the advertising because the movie more than made up for it, brings back such good childhood memories.
 
I read an interview where Bay said he hated that jazz was a solstice and wished he was bigger, and i guess that was apart of some brand deal. I think Jazz should have been bumblebees size, But i will grieve his loss i suppose
 
1)????First pay attention, the all spark was explained pretty clearly in the film. Second, you?re wrong. Transformers (G1) have the Autobus Matrix of Leadership. Which has no real relation to the Allspark at all so introducing it would have called for a whole plot change. The Allspark however comes from Beast Wars where it is Transformers heaven. In all honesty the Allspark of the film has a greater connection to the Beast Wars Allspark than the G1 Autobot Matrix of Leadership.

2)????Bumblebee had no vocal abilities out side of using the radio. Thus it is safe to assume no way to communicate to the same extent as other Autobots or Decepticons. Again pay attention to the movie.

3)????A possible explanation remember one of the S7 people in the movie mentioning that most modern technology on earth was based on reverse engineering from what they found in Megatron. Anything originating from him just might be really pissed off. Another explanation I?ve head with I think comes from the prequel comic is that the Allspark creates life but does not embue it?s creation with a transformers spark (ie soul) and thus they are angry bastards.

4)????Bumblebee losses his legs and lives, Scorponok loses his trail and lives. But Bonecrusher gets stabbed in the head and dies and Jazz gets ripped in half across the chest. The cause if death seem very much inline with the others in the film.

5)????Because just seeing a face shield move up and down would have looked lamer, micheal bay wanted him too and lots of other autobots throughout the cartoon had mouths too.

6)????He never had one.

You really need to pay attention more next time.
 
Not really there Professor. The Sector 7, and Government "bs" were all needed for the introduction of Megatron. Eliminating them would have called for a whole new plot with a whole new introduction and source of importance of Sam, a whole new introduction for Megatron, it would have eliminated a cohesive introduction for the military and the few characters important to the film (they otherwise would have been just drone "stormtroopers"), not just a minor adjustment to the film. As you can easily see, they are not "quite expendable.?


As for a larger or better introduction to the decepticonD, sure that would have been nice, but the bad guys in films never give the same introduction as the good guys. There are also 2 more films to be developed that I'm sure will add more to this interpretation of Transformers. Watch for the introduction of Galvatron and his conflict with Starscream to play an important part in the sequels
 
I'd tend to disagree, with no government plot for the introduction of megatron something could have been done with the decepticons and knocked out 2 birds with one stone. Sam already had his place in the movie as the owner/whatever of bumblebee, fish out of water in the autobot squad, other meaning could have been easily applied. The government didn't really 'add' anything to the movie. The sector 7 segments I suppose weren't horrible, but I feel they detracted from the movie as a whole, and the hackers were 100%, unadulterated garbage, and never should have been in the movie.

Sector seven, at the very least, could have/should have been reworked.

The biggest problem with not introducing the decepticons isn't that you don't get their story, it's that it cheapened the final scene by making everyone indistinguishable. I didn't know who was doing what most of the time, partially because I remember nothing from the cartoons and partially because the characters 'introductions' consisted of their name being mentioned once in passing. They looked too similar and all kind of blended together, the only memorable sequence I have in my head from the final scene that was good was (Jazz?) creatively avoiding missiles, and starscream wtfpwning the jets. I don't know any of the other decepticons names except Megatron, who was played off horribly.

Megatron: You're just a shitty, slow human, I'm an uber-fast space robot, but for some reason I can't catch you. And when I do catch you, instead of doing something I'll sit here and have a staring contest until Optimus Prime gets all Clint Eastwood on my ass.
 
I could have done without the guys from the Qatar base being there at the end of the movie. That was pretty much pointless. The hacker and the aussie chick were also completely pointless. So was the scene where the cop was questioning Sam and being an asshole to him....WTF meter through the roof on that one.
 
Spiderman didn't make the web shooters. (didn't stick to the roots)

Doom rode the Surfer's board (lame)

1 woman killed tons of people in kill bill (yeah that so could really happen)

Transformers had changes and decent one at that (It was updated to the current way we live)

*really didn't want to see Soundwave shooting tapes out of his chest.*

Bitch and complain, but when comes down to it; it's just a movie.
 
that was lame too


DR DOOM on a surf board is lame period (comics or movie). He could have created a device to use the power and ruled the world without standing on the damn thing.
It was just as gay Harry with in Spiderman 3.

What is this Back to the Future 3 summer?
 
saw it yesterday, absolutly loved it. by far everything i thought it would be plus more. and the new camero, when that baby came out, everyone in the theater started hooting and hollering. loved it
