Oh, so they're going after the fans of the TV show. The comic ruled.

They've turned Soundwave from a tape deck into... not an iPod... into a fucking space ship.

Set to come out on July 4 2007: http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/default.cfm?page=news&newsid=1034E2F7-D56F-E112-4871ECCC2E54B294

Could be worse, he spent the early part of the 1990s as a sports car!

The Transformers are divided into two groups of robots, one led by Optimus Prime, which believes in tolerance and the sanctity of life, the other by Megatron, which espouses survival of the fittest and the extermination of biological life.

When I hear right wing nutcases mouth off about how Hollywood politicizes everything, I usually roll my eyes, but then I read this...

This sounds consistent with the politics of Armegeddon, in which oil rig worker Bruce Willis bravely took on a boat full of environmentalists

i reiterate my desire that this film be a live action version of the first film.

i'd welcome an all-muscle-car line-up of autobots, but only if they were sporting robo-fu-manchus

Optimus Prime is gonna be a hummer.

David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 1 June 2006 19:57 (eighteen years ago) link

FWIW Optimus Prime WILL be a Mack truck.

also this guy did think he was finally going to get his big break when he heard the words, "live action"

kingfish doesn't live here anymore (kingfish 2.0), Thursday, 1 June 2006 20:04 (eighteen years ago) link

and never as loudly as he was being shown the door by dreamworks security guards

latebloomer (latebloomer), Thursday, 1 June 2006 20:05 (eighteen years ago) link

adding insult to injury was the fact he lost the part to this guy, his bitter rival:

Ah! Thanks.

complete hotness

TOMBOT (TOMBOT), Friday, 9 June 2006 14:41 (seventeen years ago) link

this might be a good blockbuster. i was confused by the "live action" angle, taking it to mean people in transformer suits. sadly this was before the joke suits pics were posted.

Can't seem to get any of that to work. :(

Ste (Fuzzy), Friday, 30 June 2006 07:32 (seventeen years ago) link

Mars is redder than that surely? or was it somewhere else?

more excited than i should be.

Konal Doddz (blueski), Friday, 30 June 2006 08:44 (seventeen years ago) link

This is the greatest thing... EVER!!!

Stevem give in to the excitement. Feel it!

Kv_nol (Kv_nol), Friday, 30 June 2006 09:18 (seventeen years ago) link

Mars is redder than that surely? or was it somewhere else?

it was most likely quickly filmed somwhere in the mojave desert to stand in for mars. since it's a just a teaser it doesn't worry me as much as the name "michael bay" attached to it.

latebloomer aka rap's yoko ono (latebloomer), Friday, 30 June 2006 09:20 (seventeen years ago) link

ha ha, they didn't shoot on Mars itself then :(

i do! (xpost)

those Citroen car ads certainly convince/re-assure that at least they will LOOK really good. problem is whether Bay thinks this will be enough. this can be as good as X-Men if they can tap into the similar humanity issues re relationship with machines, finely balanced with action.

Konal Doddz (blueski), Friday, 30 June 2006 09:24 (seventeen years ago) link

NO WAI D00D SURELY IT WAS FILMED ON MARS
oh, xpost

teh_kit has 22 friends (g-kit), Friday, 30 June 2006 09:24 (seventeen years ago) link

if its as fun as The Rock or The Island that can't be too bad. as long as it's not Pearl Harbor Bay we're dealing with.

latebloomer aka rap's yoko ono (latebloomer), Friday, 30 June 2006 09:25 (seventeen years ago) link

Nike transformer

Ste (Fuzzy), Friday, 30 June 2006 09:30 (seventeen years ago) link

WHERE IS THE MONEY SHOT.

s1ocki (slutsky), Friday, 30 June 2006 09:33 (seventeen years ago) link

NOIZE JIZZ

the "real" teaser

latebloomer aka rap's yoko ono (latebloomer), Friday, 30 June 2006 09:35 (seventeen years ago) link

yeah they definitely needed a bit more than just a vague outline of a robot for a split second. but it's a "teaser" after all.

latebloomer aka rap's yoko ono (latebloomer), Friday, 30 June 2006 09:42 (seventeen years ago) link

"relationships with machines" That's just sick Steve. Sick. Think of the size of the sex toy it would turn into?!
