Word Edprime! how about even a Nasa Space shuttle being a Astrotrain??? but dont limit yourself to only previously known Transformers – some of my favorite Transformers from the movie franchise have been some of the brand new ones: Blackout & Barricade. I love seeing the old school formers mixed in with some brand new ideas.

Keep the Transformers moving along with 3, 4 and 5. F* all the crap about a reboot. I liked G1 for what it was a great series when I was a kid. You can’t realistically bring those same aspects to the big screen these days. It would look ridiculous. Again the franchise failed when the killed Optimus in the G1 movie then brought him back in the series cartoon. Everyone has there opinion on who they want to bring from G1 to the big screen I would mind seeing Blaster, Rodimus, Cliffjumper. I would love Bay to use more then GM vehicles. Cliffjumper as the new Dodge Challenger would be awesome. Wheeljack as the an awesome lamborghini. Would be sick.

P.S. DINOBOTS RULE

With all the negative takes on Transformers 2 along with other SUmmer of 2009 films like Terminator Salvation and GO Joe I’m glad that my entertainment satisfaction level/expectations are a lot easier to meet then most. I enjoyed the SUmemr of 2009 as far as movies go but it sure does seem like most were very dissapointed.

It has to really suck to be someone who can’t enjoy a film unless it has a Dark Knight level production from story to directing to acting. Shame.

The G1 movie is absolute garbage and ended the coolness that was once an awesome Transformers franchise. What in the hell were the Quintessons… better yet.. dont answer that we dont even care. If it doesnt Transform it does not belong as a part of this franchise. Thank god Michael Bay came along and resurrected the Transformers. While not perfect (Alice & Cybertronian Robots with no Earth alt modes) Bay has done an excellent job. Sure i am a nerd and a Transformers fanatic, but everything that has been a part of the Transformers lore isnt cool. Alot isnt actually… but where it does shine is in its concept that Transformers hide as machinery and technology we use today. Everything else is a fail. The movie should stick to this simple and proven successful base – and if it does, we will benefit from an extremely awesome movie line and sequels. It does not need to follow any lore… if it pays homage to it… great.. but dont stick to it. other wise we will be watching the same movie the cartoon movie was. (which was not good). let Bay continue to reinvent this franchise as he has and all will be good – minus the transforming human and transformers that didnt have earth modes. As for Unicron… he doesnt make sense as a giant planet. use him as a huge aircraft carrier or something.

[...] with Bay seemingly set to work on his personal passion project “Pain & Gain” but then he met with Steven Spielberg to discuss the project in September and shortly thereafter, it was announced that Transformers 3 [...]

What i want for Transformers 3 is Mike Bay to go on a real long vacation and give us a real transformers movie, not robotic Armageddon. he couldnt even get the characters right in the first movie. Then he made devastator the mightiest of all the transformers and he looked like a giant dog. Mike Bay you suck! Watch the original cartoon and movie, then make it right….PLeeeeaaaaase

Revenge of the fallen, in my opinion, was the worst movie of the year… a shame really as it could have been the best.

I think to redeem themselves Bay and Co should just do a DIRECT translation of the 1986 cartoon transformers movie, with none of bays original characters (the twins? *shudder*), actually stick to the story and the transformers franchise could be saved (at least in the fans eyes)

@ Saber14,

I was referring to the movie of course, where those are actual characters and not Hasbro toys in boxes, heh.

In the movie, there were tons (literally) of bots who didn’t speak nor got a name in the film… so why are they even there? It’s only a giant Hasbro commercial unfortunately

I’m a huge fan of Transformers-the show. Some of the movies weren’t all that great. Plus, now my parents say that each yellow Camaro they see is Bumblebee…Weird, I know.

But, aside from that, when you said that half the characters didn’t have a name. That’s not true. You go out to any Target and you can find every-one’s name on a cardboard box that has the figure inside it.

But you know what really ticked me off-it was the fact that the boat-the military one-in Egypt that Simmons called for back up was actually supposed to be the Transformer “Depth Charge”. But then, they decided that he would be too big and that they only needed one big transformer. I say that that is bull crap right there. A fight of big robots or a fight of giant robots? Some of the other fans that I’ve talked to told me that one of the reasons why they love it is simple-giant robots. Well, that and violence.

That’s probably what Bay was trying for. I don’t know, I’m not him.

@Vic

Exactly… I will say though that if i could edit E.T. somehow to Make him look different i would give the movie a second chance.

@jago

Well it seems we do agree that different types of movies can be enjoyed, we just disagree on which particular ones.

I have always said that if I saw E.T. in my backyard, I would shoot first and ask questions later.

@Vic

Ugh…yes. Richard Dreyfuss’s performance was good in close encounters but the movie didn’t really pull me in. E.T. that alien looked like so many things (don’t want to fully engage in detail what things)that it pulled me out of the movie completely and that finger… i would have been the first calling the authorities for some reward or at least to have that thing removed from my house. Now Jaws for instance made me fear going to coney island by train because from a certain part of the station you could see into the aquarium (seriously freaked me out) and the movie “Orca” just added on to the experience.

Now around my friends and most people i’m the guy that makes everyone laugh… and when someone or something makes me laugh i usually tend to like it. Both Transformers movies made me laugh alot… so that’s why i like it ( it isn’t Schindler’s List) but to me its entertaining. Some on here give you crap for giving Punisher Warzone a good score… i on the other hand see that movie as a good ol’ funny action movie. Little by little you’ll see that i can appreciate both types of movies and i don’t just lean to one side.

@Jago

Wait, wait… you think E.T. and Close Encounters “sucked big time” but you LIKE the Transformers movies?

No wonder we can’t see eye to eye.

@vic
had you said “Duel, Jaws, any of the indy movies, etc” to me both E.T and Close encounters sucked big time… Anyways point i wanted to make was that people that have money will almost always want more of it… Even if they don’t need it.

By: Vic Holtreman

Vic Holtreman — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 02:19:09 +0000

@Jago

What Rob said. Spielberg is the guy who brought us E.T. and Close Encounters – and now he’s behind giant robot movies with no plot. Ugh.
