metaldevil you have no soul


this movie blew my freakin mind

[henmill]

i thoroughly enjoyed it

[Himura]

I'm not saying you "sux0rz" because you liked it; I'm saying I didn't (and some of my reasons why).

Thats where I say, "its all good"
youre right, we all have our reasons for liking/disliking movies.

I feel like a just sat through a 2 1/2 hour General Motors commercial.

I have to agree with metaldevil on this one. Poor writing, abundant cliches and stereotypes.


Stellar effects, shit story.

[chorizo1]

last one to see this.

story was kinda all over the place, army here, las vegas guy had a wife kid (lame attempt to make you care for 1 of 1000 people in this), secretary of defense doesn't know shit as usual, nerds (one with horrible accent), anthony anderson over acting as usual (at least it wasn't orlando jones), fred savages' gradfather in the ice, megatron in it for couple of minutes???, autobots came from nowhere pretty much talked a bit, then dropped like flies, LOL, fred savage trying to get laid, never shutting the Fuk up in the proccess.

B+ = story was LAME, action was good.

The Fred Savage kid is HORRIBLE, i couldn't wait for him to shut the fuck up, so i could look at either the hot chick, or the CGI.

i think this is funny i was going to post this but looky looky ive found a posty. lol anyways it was the coolest movie i have seen in a long time. my fav part was the part... o wait should i? o well when one of the autobots shot the ground to propel himself over the screaming lady so he didnt crush her. that was really cool. i loved the car dealers part. "meet my grandma" or was it mom? cant remember o well. remember what she did though? lol the finger. i loved this movie so much that im seeing it again and i think tomorrow, thats if my friend can go or not, and if my dad will pay for the tickets.

I think this is something we'll have to get past, because we're going to see it more and more. This movie was the cover story of EW Magazine last week, and this point was mentioned to Bay. He frankly didn't give a shit. GM paid a little over $3 million to have those 4 GM vehicles featured. PLUS they donated the 2009 Camaro. Remember there were only like 8 of those in existence, as it was still a "concept".

The movie budget was $150 million. $3 million gave them substantial flexibility.

Not a big deal for me to see the GM vehicles.

That was more of a general statement by me, than a complaint, regarding the cars. It is clear that we will be paying to see advertisements in all aspects of our entertainment, be it movies, video games, w/e. I reluctantly accept that fact. The movie was packed with all sorts of advertising, some subtle, others, not so much.
My main complaint about the show was how poorly written and executed the story was. My complaints basically mirror what metaldevil has outlined above, so I wont rehash them.

I realize this, but it would have been great to see European and Asian vehicles as well. I think Bumblebee turned out great as a Camaro, but they horribly downgraded Jazz from a Porsche to a Pontiac.

As far as in-movie advertisements go, the Mountain Dew-cepticon and the X-bot 360 were a bit "over-the-top."

just a bit...

[GearsofWar]

i thought Jazz was cool. he was like a brake dancer. i think it sucks that he got ripped in half. that was sad. anyways i thought that the sand decepticon was cool.

I said that exact thing to my friends as we left the theater.

The comedy in this film was better than your average superhero movie (Spiderman, Fantastic 4, etc...) And it had some awesome special effects. The plot was terrible, and it didn't help that the kid next to me was a die hard transformers fan who wouldn't stop talking throughout the whole movie. (Shia Lebeouf sticks the cube in Megatron; Kid says "NICE!!!" with a fist pump.
