Yeah, Optimus Prime, or is it Fire Convoy, hahaha!

I haven't seen this here, so I'd make sre it was.

Doesn't Lego call those "Bionicle"?

Rama · « **Reply #2 on:** Sep 06, 2006, 01:21:11 PM »

Note to self: When you get the chance, knock Michael Bay clean the fuck out.

I've been wanting to do that since he stole my $8 for a movie called "Pearl Harbor" that had barely anything to do with Pearl Harbor.

So, now he's coming out with "Tranformers" and I doubt it'll have anything do to with Transformers, moreso focusing on the crappy adventures of Shia LeBeauf and the new Camaro, that will spend more time talking crap than it fight as a poorly designed robot. I'll see the movie alright, but needless to say, I'll be buying a ticket for another movie and walking into it.

I sadly OWN Pearl Harbor. Lucky for me however, It was gift from a misguided soul. I didn't actually pay for it. Same person that got me a Green Lantern T-shirt when I don't think I've ever read a single issue of Green Lantern.

Yes. But in better detail.

Rama · « **Reply #8 on:** Sep 06, 2006, 02:36:06 PM »

It's actually the least cringe inducing of all the desgins I've seen, which isn't saying much. Megatron on the other hand.

I'm more appauled by Bumblebee's face.

Rama · « **Reply #10 on:** Sep 06, 2006, 03:21:58 PM »

Yeah...he always looks afraid. Which I'm sure is the way most Transformer fans look right now.

I need to see that in better detail like I need to see my poops in better detail.

They've said numerous times that the faces will be updated with CGI, so that's just his underface.

That's just Bay's "blah-blah-blah". You and I both know that the only CGI they're going to do is making his eyes glow. Have you seen the other faces? They're just as terrible. Starscream looks like Waspinator, for Christ's sake.

I am filled with bad anger inside. I must hurt someone.
Bay's taking "TF's = ALIENS" thing way too freakin' far.

B E C K · « **Reply #15 on:** Sep 06, 2006, 11:58:21 PM »

Fuck Bay and fuck this movie. And fuck the suckass Wicker Man remake while we're at it. I'll be damned if I'm going back to the movies for shit like this.

Rama · « **Reply #16 on:** Sep 07, 2006, 02:47:07 AM »

Hollywood as a whole has had some trouble making anything of quality in the last decade. When I compare movies I loved from 1980-1989 (Hell I can name five from 89 alone; Batman, Field of Dreams, Lethal Weapon 2, The Abyss, and The Adventures of Baron Munchausen) to ones I loved from 1996-2006, It's far less. I'd say 1/10 the amount of movies.

IDE · « **Reply #17 on:** Sep 07, 2006, 03:43:43 AM »

this sucks. I'm gonna go see this but I think I'll make it a double feature like zero.

You're the billionth person to mistake his cheeks for eyes

And about the Bumblebee pic: I like how the Autobot symbol plastered on his forehead looks more human than he does. :rolleyes:

Yeah shouldn’t they have changed that into some twisted monster too since it was originally based on Prowl's face?

Why do people like Field of Dreams?

I thought it was kinda boring

Rama · « **Reply #21 on:** Sep 07, 2006, 10:18:57 AM »

Well I'm a Baseball guy. Some people think that's boring too, but I enjoy it.

I'm getting tired of crappy remakes. I know remakes have been around forever, but they just seem especially bad. I have NO problem with people taking other ideas and doing something "based on" or "inspired by" or whatever. But why take something, call it "Cheaper by the Dozen", and make the changes that they did? Why do that to anything? Just make a different movie about 12 kids or whatever. Don't slap on the same title and call it a remake. Why the hell do you have to call your movie "Get Carter"? It's not the same thing. It's not as if brand name even counts in most of these cases. They could've made their own film on giant transforming robots. Hell, it'd probably be considered really good on its own with its own characters and mythology.

Rama · « **Reply #24 on:** Sep 07, 2006, 03:13:16 PM »

I'm really surprised no one has tried to remake the Wizard of Oz yet. (The Wiz doesn't count.) You know if they did it right it might be good, but that's a awful big "IF" and I'd rather them not chance it.

B E C K · « **Reply #25 on:** Sep 07, 2006, 03:22:45 PM »

The Wizard of Oz would just be called "OZ" and everyone would be redesigned to be FUCKING XXXXXX-TREME. The Scarecrow, the evil witch, the wizard, munchkins, and the lion would look all scary. The flying monkeys would breathe fire. The good witch and Dorothy would be all hot. Dorothy would be from modern day California and an earthquake would swallow her into the magic land of Oz. The tin man would be talking giant tank. The setting would be very Tim Burtonish, with lots of r&b music, some rap for action scenes and a song piece or two, and the X-tina Aguilera take to "Over the Rainbow" to play when credits end. OTR would be performed in a hip-hop style. There would fight scenes with lots of wirework coordinated by that Asian duder from the Matrix movies. Lots of shooting from the tin man tank, who's ruthless because he has no heart. And the promotional campaign would be made of dark, ominous posters that read "GUESS WHAT'S OVER THE RAINBOW, SUMMER 2009" and have some scary pic of one of the major characters (collect all four).

Except Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory....and that's only cause of Johnny Depp of course

Wickedly Yours E · « **Reply #28 on:** Sep 07, 2006, 08:21:00 PM »

No, that still sucked.

Johnny Depp couldn't save that sinking ship of chocolate, CGI and rushed cinematography.
