Looking at some of the stuff coming out on Facebook, I'm really curious how they're going to reconcile the idea that the Transformers -- including Optimus and many others -- have been here for almost the whole timeline of human civilisation and, oh, any of the other films. They won't. Milkfred E. Moore fucked around with this message at 07:10 on May 10, 2017 |

With their plans of moving into a greater transformers franchise similar to Marvel I hope they give us some medieval Japan and Europe transformers movies.

At this point I want to think this is some sort of scam and there's no movie, just a series of disjointed trailers and promotional materials because no one on Earth can feasibly create a script that would justify whatever's going on here

Bumblebee re-assembling is weird seeing as Megatron tearing Jazz apart in the first film was seemingly fatal. That being said who cares at all about consistency at this point.

This is a movie where Prime is the villain and Megatron is apparently going to be a hero. Nothing matters, it's all the toys being smashed together time.

well why not posted:Bumblebee re-assembling is weird seeing as Megatron tearing Jazz apart in the first film was seemingly fatal. That being said who cares at all about consistency at this point. He has a hammer in this movie, and the story is apparently about finding an artifact that can restore Cybertron. In Transformers lore, the Forge of Solus Prime* is a hammer that can create new Cybertronian life. So 'Bee might have found that Forge and it made him indestructible as long as he has it. That's the theory people made based on the information we have so far. *In Transformers lore, Solus Prime was one of the first thirteen Primus created and all who descended from Solus are the only Transformers who can create new life by themselves. They are typically known as "females". Or maybe Stanley Tuccis company upgraded him. New pictures: The MSJ fucked around with this message at 15:18 on May 17, 2017 |

That's the theory people made based on the information we have so far. Let me get this straight. The current theory is that Bumblebee has become spiritually attuned to his feminine side through a religious artifact, and that this has made him indestructible? That 1) kick rear end 2) is seriously on the nose, even for Bay's Transformer films.

UmOk posted:Is that good? Why? I mean, I just like it, but if I had to argue in its aesthetic favor, I would say that its constant disruptive quality runs refreshingly counter to the conventional wisdom that such aesthetic changes should only be in response to blanket tonal changes or specific action set pieces. In Bay-verse, these are elitist aesthetic limitations that don't sufficiently communicate the violent and emotionally fraught political space of the subject. One must speculate that Bay has made these decisions based largely upon compositional concerns, forsaking the pretense of immersion and instead reveling in the constant changes themselves, and their consequent disruption. Even in its most morbid moments, the aesthetic suggestion is constantly of an arbitrary god, for whom the violence inflicted upon and by its subjects are part of a grand cosmic joke. (This is, after all, the same franchise about 'toys who are mean to other toys,' now steeped in both Arthurian and WWII mythology, an exceptionally trashy move to which even detractors of the franchise respond with some positivity.)

I think the changing aspect ratios are interesting in light of the "every frame a painting" style of thought, where the each frame (or rather, each set of frames) is itself framed as most appropriate to it, rather than trying to frame the whole movie as a single unit. This isn't saying it'll necessarily work well in practice. I just think it's interesting.

It's even better when you can use the switch as part of the movie. Catching Fire transitioned to IMAX as Katniss entered the game and it almost goes unnoticed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LqYQEJXez_E

The last Transformers movie also had the switching aspect ratios.

GonSmithe posted:The last Transformers movie also had the switching aspect ratios. The Dark Knight and TDKR also had them, and Chris Nolan is an admitted fan of Michael Bay... Yo can we get a movie written by Nolan and directed by Bay? It will have 5 different aspect ratios, be 5 hours long, and cost as much as the new Avengers movies are going to, but it will make every cent back and then some

A Nolan / Bay joint operation would probably kill the cinema discusso crowd outright. It'd also be the most character-actor filled movie ever made.

Happy Noodle Boy posted:It's even better when you can use the switch as part of the movie. Catching Fire transitioned to IMAX as Katniss entered the game and it almost goes unnoticed I don't know that it's "better," per se. With that Hunger Games shot, it's not even just that the aspect ratio is changing in the cut (as occurs in Nolan and Bay's films), but that it actually widens progressively as the shot goes on. It's an unobtrusive, 'immersive' effect which calls attention away from the all the contrived elements at play (the movement of the shot, CGI, the rising of the set, in addition to the aspect ratio). In The Dark Knight Rises, you get an example of a harder cut to a wider aspect ratio in the first Bane fight, but, again, you get this complement from the cage locking behind Wayne https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PVFi6Pb4Guw Bay's style is basically anti-immersion. The abundant, constant changing in shot composition calls attention to the formal qualities of the film.

The MSJ posted:Well they asked for a Volkswagen 'Bee. Nice butt-to-camera pose too. These promo pictures are particularly funny to me. See, a few years ago, there was a controversy in Australian schools about a history exam with a source analysis question that was basically the predecessor of this. It was a question about Storming the Winter Palace by Nikolai Kochergin. However, the image had been sourced by someone who just grabbed it off the net without properly checking it, and so the image had a massive Battletech mech stomping around in the background. quote:The exam, which was sat by almost 6000 students, featured a doctored version of the artwork, in which a large robot - rather like BattleTech Marauder - appeared in the background of the artwork depicting events during the Russian Revolution.
