Horrible, horrible movie but all the guys in the cinema went bonkers at the first scene with Megan Fox.

You know you're a geek-nerd-dork when you're more excited about seeing bumblebee's first scene than Megan Fox's.

If you liked the first one you'll like this one.
I just wish the transformers had more dialogue.

Optimus Prime is killed by Megatron, and then resurrected by Sam using the Matrix of Leadership which is then soon destroyed.
How's that?

ok just got back

very good entertaining action movie, was fun to watch with friends

BUT

they fucked up alot of the characters and threw some random shit out of their ass in there

1) Fallen is not a lone lame ass robot that is easily dealt with by a single transformer. In the series, Fallen is a huge machine planet, and Optimus Prime wouldn't beat him 1v1 in his wildest dreams

2) There is only ONE Prime at once, and when The Prime is going to die he passes on the Matrix of Leadership (shown in the movie as something entirely different and re-purposed) to the one who will become the next Prime. There is no such thing this BS idea of the "7 Primes" or whatever

3) Optimus Prime and Megatron are NOT brothers, and they are NOT related

4) Some other major inconsistencies with the original Transformers storyline, but then again, what do you expect

I would love to see these movies remade already.
I don't maybe written and directed by ... I don't know... a sci-fi writer & sci-fi director.
Maybe I'm nuts but it seems a good idea for a sci-fi movie to be written and directed by ppl who have experience with that genre.

And I agree that the fallen wasn't given the weight he deserved.
For the old schoolers that haven't followed the newer comics etc.
The Fallen is one of the original transformers created by Primus and threat wise The Fallen > Unicron.

I thought the movie was amazing, but then again I was never really much of a transformers fan outside of the toys and the 1st movie. In my opinion this one was better than the first one cuz it had more action and slo-mo Megan Fox.

Idk much about the fallen or whatever, but the fight with him was waaay too short. I thought he was kinda like some kind of badass, but he got his ass kicked in less than 5 minutes.

After watching the rest of the end sequence I can safely say with complete certitude that all my hopes for this film have been completely shattered.

I wouldn't waste the 12$ + food to see this in the theatre. It's the same fucking movies I saw in 2007 with more/different transformers and even less plot. If they had stuck to half the stuff that was in the early leaked script it would have been worth it, but this is just insulting.

I can safely say I hate this movie as much as Resident Evil: Apocalypse.

Fuck Michael Bay.

wait, you hadn't seen all of it when making the topic?

hehe and yeah.. the ending sucked... especially the final battles

near the end it's like they didn't know what to do with the action sequences and just show transformers shooting / getting shot at

the plot started off decent then quickly deteriorated for the 2nd half of the film

the best part about this movie was Soundwave, by FAR

the worst was everything else

The first version I downloaded was missing pieces after Sam gets the Matrix Dust, and no audio after Optimus gets the Jetfire-corpse Armor.

It sucks that Soundwave didn't even see any action.
My biggest beef with the series is that we don't get to see any of the Transformers' niche abilities or much interaction between them beyond combat.
My biggest beef with this movie has to be the carbon copy plot with even bigger plot holes than the first one. I tolerated the first film and saw passed it's flaws, but I'm not going to pay good money to see something that does nothing to improve on it's predecessor's shortcomings. Especially not in the middle of a deep recession.
When the 1987 film had a much deeper, more coherent plot.


All three of the writers can suck my nut-suck, BTW.

Hey Vanya. At least they didn't skimp it and replace Optimus Prime with Rodimus Prime.

^ This. I just found out that my favorite Transformer was in this movie. Sideways.

I also heard he is a courier who doesn't fight, BULLSHIT. I heard that he is portrayed as an AUDI R8, BULLSHIT!

Sideways is a warrior with dual allegiances with both the Autobots and the Decepticons. He fights quite often, and oh yeah he is a fucking motorcycle.

I can ignore all the differences except for his one. If they left him out I would have been able to watch the movie in peace.
