I bet Bay was making "Pew pew!" noises as he shot the scene and things exploded. That's an interesting viewpoint, the camera is his gun and thus whatever he shoots, it explodes. Movie making philosophy/design.

All this talk of Bay and Sex...when is he going to make an Eyes Wide Shut type movie. Someone should tell him the world wants to see him explore it as subject matter with focus for a whole film. The way he'd film such a thing... "Michael Bay's Nature of Love and Sex: A Human's Story" It'd be one long action-like sequence through a club setting probably.

Happy Noodle Boy posted:God drat, that trailer owned. The Dinobots looked huge and there's literally a face turning into a gun and shooting back at Optimus. It's like they read this thread while filming. Seriously, its like Bay remembered Prime saying "Give me your face." and now has a Decepticon go "Come and take it." *BOOM! CHBOOOM!* and Prime gets shot.

I didn't know Swoop would have two heads. It seems like they're kind of mashing up dinosaurs with some element of fantasy thrown in. Like, I've thought as a kid "What if Grimlock was Godzilla?" and it feels like Swoop is some kind of King Ghidorah. There were Decepticons like that, I think the Terrorcons who were a gestalt like Devestator but fantasy monsters.

I think while Prime had tendencies, it isn't until he dies and is resurrected by Sam that he becomes a murderous killing machine with a child's concept of justice. In the first he seemed somewhat ok. In the second after merging with matrix Sam, who also died and came back, does it go hard core childish and villainous. Basically Sam made Optimus that way just as Sam turned Megaton feminine by using the the cube on him and making him incompetant or maybe impotent. Prime became a child's version of a car to on hero all masculine and hard and right and wrong and the villain all feminine. In the first Prime was more normal and Megaton was hard core asskicker. With any luck the creators can flip the evil switch to good on Prime.

Wasn't there a shot in the trailer where there were a bunch of alien spacecraft heading for earth? Was it just me or did I miss something somewhere or miss remembering? Like was that one of the prehistoric times shots? I wonder if Unicron is like a gestalt of all them life giving/taking ships spraying his seed everywhere on planets. Or if its an element of Primus or Vector Sigma or some crap they wanna pull if they want.

I find it amusing that in the first it was more seemingly traditional with the Auto bots on the run as heroes but in the second as SMG pointed out Prime becomes a murder machine and is called tyrant. I was really hoping we found out Sam corrupted him but after an awesome ride thanks to SMG and Terry's analysis I'm hoping the last one is actually a majority philosophical character study of Prime amongst his creators ending in faces ripped off.

Transformer "God" is going to be a female and gives birth to Transformers like something out of the Queen in Alien Resurrection and Optimus Prime is going to rip her face off. Something about immature kids and boys and ew girl cooties or something.

Is Michael Bay carrying the spirit of Verhoven? Is Transformers akin to Robot op or Starship Troopers as misunderstood initially at large only to be appreciated later? He needs to direct Arnold. I can't imagine the carnage and themes explored.

It's gonna end with Unicron and the next one will have Primus. Two planet sized Tranformer Gods fighting it out. I'd have loved to see a well done Fortress Maximus and Autobot City hold off a world invasion.

Oh poo poo. Megatron is going to ascend and reclaim his angelic nature. He will be redeemed and maybe even the hero. Prime the villain he always was deep down. I would love it if Mark Whalberg asks the Quintessons (they have to be in the movie, have to) why and how they turned him only for them to say "Uhh we didn't do anything. He is how he is. A dick."

I liked it. Not the best and I hope there's an expanded edition cause it's true it really felt stripped down but I'm gonna guess a full on Unicron vs Primus planet vs planet battle for a 6th is too much for Bay to pass up. Also everyone are immature kids except the military. Besides being always presented well due to Bay's relationship with them, those guys are the ones in these movies as normal adult dudes who can tackle real world issues. Closest we got to that is John Malkovich's character who sees through to Bumblebee being a toy he can play with. Same with Lockdown and Kelsey Grammer's character. Based on Terry's reading.

That whole Megatron assembling his troops like it's a heist movie/Oceans 11 owned. As much as I want to see Bay have two planet sized Transformers go at it for 6, I'd rather have a Guy Ritchie TF heist/gangster movie set in Europe.

Hot Rod is a French accented race car TF who has the power and touch to stop time into slow motion while hitting on pretty human ladies and leaping about kicking rear end. The whole series is a silly 300 million dollar cartoon with depth of subversion of American ideals and film making that is expressed in cynical underlying menace and hate yet is glorious to behold. And Bumblebee was in WWII and Hopkins remembers him from when he was a kid. I'm pretty sure Michael Bay is a top 5 director on earth today. He gets so much so right and while the first Transformers was a straightforward conventional film I am happier it went to the directions it did.

Just like the cartoons it doesn't matter they can show up any time and continuity is malleable. Seriously. Bay made a perfect 80s cartoon down to the errors. Only out 30 to 40 year old nostalgic brains are expecting something on an adult level failing to recall original quality show as a kid Bay is genius.

You mean Galvatron? I think we can infer that Galvatron found his way to Quintessa who remade him and thus regained his Angelic male essence with a giant phallic gently caress off sword and arm cannon.

RedSpider posted:In AoE, Optimus had an exposition scene where he explained that Megatron uploaded his mind (from his severed head) into the Galvatron body that KSI built. Quintessa doesn't exactly mind control I think but manipulate. But the red mark on the face is a clear indication of her influence. Megatron and Prime both bear it and I think Megatron makes a comment about Prime's failure before he flies off with the stick.
