Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

[gabberjawa]

Oh and I didn't need to see Torturo's "(sp?) ass either hahahaha

The theater let out a collective gasp

This impacted the audience much more than

Optimus 'dying'

That was hilarious to me, therefore I applaud it

On a slightly OT topic, did anybody have trouble tracking down the score? I should have ordered it from Amazon and been done with it but I wanted it ASAP! lol I called 3 best buys and not one had gotten copies (or so they claimed) I walked into a fourth BB and when I didn't see it on the shelves I asked an employee and he ended up giving me the last copy they had. He told me the store had received 2 copies and he had sold the other one earlier that morning. Sheessg

I'm not surprised--movie scores aren't mainstream

I was hoping to see Jetfire given a new body. At the end on the carrier having somehow him transform into a new position. It'd be the only way to see a Robotech Valkyre on screen.

Would he still have the stupid beard? Maybe just stubble?

 

[The Mike]

Knowing Bay he'd have a Van Dyke.

 

[CelticPredator]

That beard was awesome sauce. Jetfire was an awesome old fart.

Saw it again, still love it...but it IS too long.

IMAX tomorrow.....christ....3 times in 2 days.

I wish I saw Drag Me To Hell again.

 

[IrishJedi]

You're right.

I can't believe Rolling Stone gave ROTF a 0/5 stars. An absolute zero usually denotes that there was NOTHING worthwhile about a movie. I felt the film was full of flaws and holes but I think Peter Travers' review is overly harsh.

Who's second in command in the autobots? Seems like the autobots just did what they needed to do when Prime died unlike the decepticons they waited until Megatron gave them orders.

Optimus Primal was second in Command because Ironhide never made it into the Transformers movies.

Optimus Primal:

Iron Hide:

And what was up with Unicron's Cameo as Jet Fire?

Mad Props to Peter Travers.

Just as the 10/10 and 5 stars it's been getting from the fanboys denotes there is NOTHING at all wrong with it, right?

 

[CelticPredator]

IronHide movie looks way cooler then that drink cooler.

I dont think you get why we rated it a 10/10. We...or atleast I know that it ISNT a good movie. Its got a ^^^^ story, with a weird pace, and its way too long.

But you know what? It was fun. It had everything I wanted. Explosions, robots, Megan Fox, and more explosions.

I rate movies on how enjoyible or entertaining they are to me.

You mean Optimus Primal.

Well ya he was the leader of the Maximals so he had to stand out above the rest.

Fine. But also understand that Peter Travers is a professional film critic who rates his movie reviews based on artistic merit and quality, not how much fun they are when you shut your brain off.

 

[CelticPredator]

Well thats his problem. He shouldnt be looking for ^^^^ing "artistic merit" in a goddamn Michael Bay film!

 

[DinoLast]

Just because Hasbro made a pretender or whatever the ^^^^ they are, in 1988 to 1989, it does not mean they had to make a lame Transforminator in this movie. The idea sucked back then and it sucks now. The movie was overbloated it's a fact. For crying out loud it was longer than the movie 2001.
Cut out all the Mom and Pop crap. Cut out the Roommate. Cut out the Terminator girl. Cut out John Tuttorro showing his ass and trying to be funny. Flesh out more of the the Autobots and the Decepticons, so I do give a ^^^^ if they live or die. If it's a pop corn flick, make it lean like one, and you can still keep all the fighting which I had no problem with.

 

[Valfar]

That Rolling Stone review is pure garbage..people have to stop mentioning the race thing with Skids and Mudflap..if that guy writing the review listens to hip hop then he is a hypocrite...why is it always like this..you never seen people ^^^^^ing about "Mr.Whitey" on Fresh Prince of Bel Air...There is nothing offensive about these characters when we infact the majority of people see the "thug" image as being stupid anyway..so be it..these characters are dumb gangstaz dat can't read..Epps was not protrayed this way..though he had some dumb lines in the first but..whatever...there is way more things out there in music alone that are subjective and thrown at you on the televsion on a daily basis.

 

[ShazBo]

Fine. But also understand that Peter Travers is a professional film critic who rates his movie reviews based on artistic merit and quality, not how much fun they are when you shut your brain off.

Well movies that require you to shut off your brain only have 2 Plot Points. Point A to Point B. And that why those one work.

Example:
Commando.
A.)Dude's daughter gets kidnapped.
B.)Dude kills dudes and get his daughter back.

See simple = Awesome.

Transgender: ROTF has 15 so that's why it's a mess.
