Post Title: Got your Transformer 2 tickets yet?
Posted by: Looneybomber at 11:36 AM 6/20/2009

IMAX is opening a screen in one of KC's theaters, with Transformers 2 being it's first ever movie showing. I'm going to double check what time we want and will be placing my order pretty soon.

Anyone else preparing/prepared for the movie release?

I'm planning to do the same thing that I did when the first Transformers movie released.....ignore it until it runs on HBO.

I've gotta see it in the IMAX though. My HT puts my local theater to shame (minus the screen that is), but the IMAX should have a much nicer audio system, which I'm currently looking into to find out just what brand and components they're using. That info is hard to find though.

Huge screen, new seats, and awesome audio (I hope) should make my $15/ticket plus 65mile drive worth it. Oh, we're going to a nice BBQ place for father's day too.

Well im gonna watch it on Wednesday no need to rush buying tickets cuz im going to watch the 11:00AM show....its almost always empty.

Been lookin forward to this for a while.
I jus wish Bay respected the originals a little bit more. Nonetheless, should be a fun scope.

The Fallen is the weakest character in all of TF history and they are going to bring him/it.
Damnit bring Shockwave, he would make a lovely villain against both Decepticons and Autobots.

Theres a bunch of them.
They even get there own category at the academy awards.
Best Original Screenplay

Although some are based on real life events so i dont know if that counts as Original movie. But nonetheless most nominees in that category are original movies written from scratch.

Dude, i have to drive 100 miles, so 65 is nothing. Heck he can make the trip in just over an hour and never break the speed limit.
Everytime i make the trip i have to clock the speedo just to make decent time. Nonetheless, its New Orleans so the only times ive even visited an IMAX was during one of my drunken weekends so its usually worth the trip......

Revenge of The Fallen was pretty good. I saw it yesterday with my kids. It has some humorus parts, some sad parts, and some kick arse parts. I liked it. But, then again, I don't over anylize movies to the point that some do.

I think you all will like it, especially on an IMAX screen. Wish they had those over here...

I hate Shia LeDouche. I wish he'd GTFO of hollywood so I don't have to keep putting up with him in movies I might otherwise enjoy. At least the writers of Constantine had the good sense to kill the little rectum-faced pygmy off.
And I feel no urgent need to rush to see this latest Michael Bay pointless explosionfest. I mean, I LOVE explosions, more than just about anyone (yes, even you...I promise) but I can get random pointless explosions without paying $10 to waste 2 hours sitting through bad writing and Shia Lesmeggingdouchepants.

i don't waste money on going to the movies anymore. i pay for hbo and record everything i didn't see in theaters to watch on my own time. that way if it completely blows, i know that i didn't waste any extra time or money on it. besides, i always end up falling asleep anyways. i just finally saw all of "dark knight" like last week.

Haha, i lol'd so hard reading that post.

But you should do what i did for transformers 1. Whenever there isnt a robot on screen ignore everything that happens.
When there is a robot, check to see if its doing something awesome if it isnt, then again, ignore everything that happens.....what you are left with, is a really Epic movie, however nonsensical it may be.

Optimus vs Boncrusher FTW!!

I'm seeing it in Imax for that reason.... usually better there.Dark knight was epic in Imax.

Sometimes you get a queasy feeling when they do the whole shaky camera garbage b/c the screen is so big...

Just finished the Movie.
And as a Transformers fan and a movie fan.
Im disappointed, Yes the battles were awesome. But thats it.
Ive read the original Fallen comics, so i knew what the story was, but still trying to follow the story in the movie was like being high and trying to count the stars.....who the F*** thought it was a good idea to use the Fallen as a villain in this movie.
This movie should have been the Reign of Starscream or The Transformers are all dead with Shockwave.

Megan foxs' unprettiness and spaced out tits didnt help the movie either.
Im almost sad that this movie didnt deliver.
Ill go watch it again tomorrow just so i can see if i missed anything but i doubt it.

TFII is def not going to win summer for me.

Atleast the first movie was coherent, and the story had some structure to it.

This one is mindless, you might as well watch it super drunk, cuz trying to understand any part of it leaves you mindf..ked

And what they did to JetFire....OMG im going have to assassinate Micheal Bay and his whole team for sure for sure.

Dude dude dude.... easy. Not many people read comics. If it's a good movie I really don't care if it follows the original plot line. I loved "The Dark Knight" and being a Batman fan I know they just kind of made that one up. But I think it's my fav Batman movie now.

Movie rocked, going to see it again this weekend.

PS, I never should have read this thread first, every time they had megan fox on screen I kept focusing on the ugly separated boobies thing. Thanks NICO.

haha, sorry for pointing that out. But its impossible to miss.
Those things are freakishly separated. Its almost like they are both N sides of a magnet and are trying to run from each other.

The right one is like

while the left is thinking

And sorry guys but this movie was pathetic by any standards, how many of you can tell me what the bad guys actually wanted on earth?
Then tell me why they wanted whatever it is that they wanted?
If they wanted the sun so much, why didnt they just build the stupid machine on Mars or Venus, better yet on the frikkin moon. No disturbances from puny humans.
Next explain to me what makes the primes so awesome?
And why is it that only a prime can kill the fallen?
Also, if the Decepticon have figured out the Pretender shell technology, why the heck didnt they just use pretenders to infiltrate the army. Heck with like 5 pretenders in the NEST team, that awesome AUDI at the beginning would still be alive.

The only reason this movie is worth the watch is because of the fight scenes. Literally everything else is useless. Everything,..... anytime time the robots arent fighting you might as well walk out and take a piss break.

P.S The Autobots are frikkin evil, i felt sorry for the AUDI that thing looked scared outta its mind, and they hunted it down and killed it, simply because it had a decepticon logo

P.P.S Not one of the good guys died(OP doesnt count). The Decepticons had a tank that could transform into a jet, ur telling me they could get 1 TF kill?
Heck, they had a transformer that was 5 transformers put together....and they couldnt get one, not even one of those annoying twins?
Bullsh.t

The movie was good, but the story line had holes in it. I needed more motive, science, and suspense. It was too much of a kids movie with cuss words, which I thought also took away from the movie.

What do you want, a simple movie? Meaning kid friendly and thus no cuss words? Or a more adult movie with a more complex story line and cuss words?

Unfortunately Transformers2 is a kid movie that's inappropriate for kids. Still a good action movie though.

Uhh, was there a point to any of that mindless jabbering? I'll try to break down your impossibly poor formatted "paragraph" and answer a couple questions.

1) They were after the last remaining shard of the cube because it holds the knowledge of their race, or so they think.

2) Oh yeah, no disturbances to humans once the sun is gone? That kills all life on our planet genius. So regardless if they built it on earth or mars, we'd still be screwed, but for sake of making a movie, the Fallen landed on earth and wanted to build it here while simultaneously killing all humans because we are weak and he is strong.

3) The primes are so awesome because they are the original TF's and thus have the most powers. Didn't you see the Fallen doing some crazy teleportation and lifting objects up via mind control?

4) Because the Fallen is too strong, non-prime TF's wont be able to kill it.

5) Pretender tech, blah.

Did you even watch the movie!? Did you not pay attention to anything? They pretty much verbally explained everything which took all thought and reasoning skills out of trying to figure out the movie. Even a 10y/o could understand all of it since the dialog was so blatently obvious.

It's not like those suspenseful crime drama's where subtle details are thrown in that you must pick up and try to figure out on your own, no, this movie explains everything via dialog so even the most unintelligent can understand and figure it out.

I Saw It On IMAX Yesterday.

In All The Movie Rocked.

All I Got To Say Is That:

1.Robo Chick In The Beginning Was Jizzerd In Mah Pants H4wt!
2.In The Beginning Megan Foxes Acting Was Meh At The Most.
3.I Lol'ed At The Goat Jump Off The Building.
4.I Always Knew Heaven Was Controlled By Robots.
5.I Wanted The Little Ghetto Robots To Die. :\
6.Kinda Silly Trying To Kill Off The 2 Main Characters.

Still 9.5/10

The Angel of Death is here!

Ok i was so pissed of when i was typing my post i forgot proper sentence and paragraph structure.....

1. You didnt understand what the decepticons wanted and thus i proved my point.
They wanted the shard as so to find the machine, as so to destroy the sun, as so to get energon, as so not to rust and end up like JetFire. This Energon is also needed as so to birth hatchlings.
Note they still didnt know where the Matrix was so this plan of theirs wasnt exactly water tight. its just a coincidence that Sam found the Matrix when the Fallen arrived on earth.

2. I meant to say, if the Fallen didnt want to get bothered by the Humans and the Autobots why didnt he just go and build the machine on Mars, Venus or the Moon. Unless he was in serious rush and this machine takes years and years to construct i dont see why he didnt just take his Decepticon army and go somewhere he wouldnt be bothered.

3. Primes are only awesome because the movie said they are. Those guys didnt seem all powerful or whatever, that levitation nonsense. Rubbish, teleportation?, thats just space bridge tech, the TFs just forgot how to do it, but they all can.

4. Fallen is too strong for 1 TF to kill him? But what if we have an army of TFs.
Why does the fight have to be one on one. We know the Autobots have combiner technology, and parts siphoning. ur telling me they couldnt beat this one guy. Even when all the other primes worked together? That puts him in God Fire Convoy levels yet Optimus Prime took him down with relative ease and that was a two mech combination.

5. No response? Thats because it doenst make sense, if they can use pretender tech why not get the president and other high ranking officers. And make stealing the Shard easy on themselves.


I realize im not going to change ur opinion about this move, if you liked it, you liked it.
Im just hoping i can point out the massive short comings, and youll be able to see, that maybe its not as good a movie as you initially thought it was.

Its 2 and a half hours of a broken story. i dont see how a movie with a broken story can be considered good.

My Rant is done.

i totally agree with you Nali, here is a review i posted on another site.

I thought the movie was terrible! Bad dialog, bad acting, way too freaking long, the horrible one liners, the plot, the lack of story, okay i might as well just say everything!

The only good quality was the sfx and even that came of as arbitrary on soooo many occasions.

The cussing was unnecessary, many characters were unnecessary, and nothing made sense.

Gundam affinity aside, the movie was awful and deserved the 22/100 rating it received on RT.

Two thumbs way down!

SPOLIERS!!! aka BS!

a transformer who turned into a hot chic...BS!

a transformer with balls...BS!

the fallen...BS!

dogs humping...BS!

racial stereotypical autobots...BS!

shia labouffes mom on weed brownies...BS!

leg humping robots...BS!

I COULD GO ON FOREVER! THESE MOVIES RUIN CINEMA! THERE IS NO FREAKING PLOT WHATSOEVER!

I tried to answer your questions directly without explaining the why's behind the why's behind the why's. Otherwise I would have talked about the matrix cube thing.

You have to remember that it's a movie and it's for entertainment. In that same respect, in all the terminator movies, if the terminators are strong enough to knock down walls, throw around huge metal beams ect, why do they just throw John and Sarah Connor around? When they grab them, why don't they just crush their heads? Bam, now you have a 30 min. long T1 and no other movies after that.

I'm done ranting about this movie, ive spread my hate pretty much all over the internet. inadvertently causing more people to see it, as people who weren't initially interested want to see what pissed me off so much

But the more i think about this movie the angrier i get, there are so many things done wrong....i mean completely wrong, what use are testicles on robot, why are the twins so offensive, why does wheelie leg hump megan fox, where is Barricade, why is bonecrusher in this movie.

If you liked the movie good for you, does it say something about the level coherency needed to entertain you? Somewhat.

Just saw TF2 at a drive-in movie theater. On the huge screen and the sound system in my Jeep it was pretty good. Plus it was a double feature with UP, which was also very good. Both movies for FOUR DOLLARS! It was awesome.

That's with a student ID discount. Regular ticket price is still only 6 bucks. There are 2 within 10 minutes of Penn College of Technology in Williamsport which is awesome.

I've gotta see it in the IMAX though. My HT puts my local theater to shame (minus the screen that is), but the IMAX should have a much nicer audio system, which I'm currently looking into to find out just what brand and components they're using. That info is hard to find though.

Our systems still destroy even iMax. The sound is much better then normal theaters, but it cant compete with an enthusiast system.

Yeah that's true, but I meant it's better than my local theater.

The Imax in Chicago was renovated and all audio equipment is from Danley sound labs. TH50's (4 of them) comprise the bottom end, and his (name of speaker escapes me) is used for the front stage. All quality products.

Question: How are the Transformers still a secret from the world when they had a HUGE frikken fight in the middle of L.A. in the last movie?

They need to be beat for what they did to Jetfire...

I liked the movie the 1st time I saw it. But the 2nd time... OI... that's when my critical thinking started working. Man, this movie was bad. Not as bad as Wolverine & Terminator, but still very inconsistent in the story department. The comedy was pretty good though. I lol'd quite a bit.

And there were chicks in my theater that wer hotter than Megan Fox. She has definently descended to average, IMO...



Post Title: Re: (Koshin)

Transformers 2 was such a disappointment.

The first one had more than enough plot holes, and instead of trying to fill them up Michael Bay created a plot trench worthy of the French country side during WW1. Nothing in the movie made sense, from the haphazard mention of Energon to the Matrix of Leadership.

The characters were horribly distorted into stereotypes and cliches. Why was Star Scream, the second to Megatron, a groveling hunchback? Why was Jet Fire, second to Optimus Prime, an old fart? What the hell were they thinking when making the two stereotypically black/ghetto hatchback robots?

The worst thing by far however was the rampant use of lame humor. I was for a good half of the movie.

If Transformers took itself somewhat seriously it would be a great movie. But once the initial "wow" of the fight scenes fades away all that's left is pathetic by even Hollywood standards.

Thats exactly what ive been trying to point out, this movie left a sour taste in my mouth. It was an abomination of a movie. I havent seen a movie this bad in a really long time.
I couldnt understand what people were laughing at in the theatre, so i assumed it was just uncomfortable laughter. Very little of the movie was funny, and when the bots werent fighting the movie was unwatchable.

When Jetfire was finally revealed i actually thought it was a joke and that he would show his true form in the next scene. That was an insult to any transformers fan.

JetFire from Ten Gun barrels of awesomness


to some old britsh bot with parts falling off him? WTF!!
If they needed an old bot in the movie they should have use Alpha Trion

Why in the world would they decide to do that?! Jetfire is sooo frikken awesome! He looks like a Macross Veritech.

As a black man, I'm gonna choose to not be offended by those two characters. Like their voice actors said, I'm going to choose to believe that those two Autobots downloaded some poser, e-thug, 'Kevin Federline'-like data.

Afterall, using Ebonics or speaking ignorantly like that is not synomamous with Black.

Im not sure if you are agreeing with me or not?
JetFire looks badass in his G1, "my body is always upgrading" form, if they used that version of jetfire a nice story aspect would be to explore the history between him and starscream.

Fix't
And i didn't laugh, thats grade school humor. When you just learn what sex actually is and you find it funny, that kind of humor is akin to when little girls see a kissing scene in a movie and they cant help but laugh because their immaturity compels them to.
They used the same jokes in the first film, it didn't work then its it worked even less this time.

synomamous is not a word.

Its a set of letters pieced together that have fooled the world into believing that they are a word.
This group of letters has plundered many a'brain in an attempt to take over the planet by eliminating the number zero.
Their honest belief is that if they can delete zero from our brains we will be defeated, whether this is true or not is yet too be seen, as they have only deleted zero from the minds of select high ranking officers and some presidents.
From what i can tell they may have infected you. When was the last time you divided by zero and what was the result?

P.S Blackholes are the physical result of dividing by zero.
e.g 71/0 = ǝןoɥʞɔɐןq

This is why... per wikipedia!

link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T...cters

Starscream: 1975 F-15 Eagle More Than Meets the Eye (Part 1) Killed by Galvatron in Transformers: The Movie. Turned into ghost in Starscream's Ghost and Ghost in Machine returns in The Return of Starscream.

Starscream is Megatron's air commander and second-in-command, but is eager to usurp him as leader of the Decepticons. His scheming has at times cost the Decepticons decisive advantages. Among his arsenal are cluster bombs and a paralyzing null ray.

No... It's a word. From the root word 'synonym'...

synonymous: Main Entry: syn·on·y·mous
Pronunciation: \-məs\
Function: adjective
Date: 1610
1: having the character of a synonym ; also : alike in meaning or significance
2: having the same connotations, implications, or reference <to runners, Boston is synonymous with marathon — Runners World>

http://www.merriam-webster.com...ymous

I did, however, misspell it. I even checked the spelling in Google before I posted it. Stupid Google...

So basically, having ignorant sounding robots is not the same as having Black sounding robots. Afterall, how can one sound like a color?
