Transformers 2

[eejit101]

Bear in mind i went alone, as the first one is one of my all time top 5 favourite movies.... I expected a fair amount but not alot.

However......

This film is catergorically the best film ive seen in 10-15 years.

Only other ones i can think of that were "as good", are Casino Royale, Transformers 1, Shawshank.


Seriously, if you havent seen this one, or the first one, go watch both.

If you thought the first one was ok, or didnt like it, go watch it again.

I can link you to it for free online.

Im in shock, it was literally over 2 hours or sheer brilliance. (after the first 15 minute intro)

[freeringo]

Im going to see it tomorrow mattinee.
I am still cheap.
You got me so excited.

[0maxpower0]

wow. 15 years is a long time, its over half of my life... It must have been some kinda groundbreaking stuff, because casino royale was definately that. I was only moderately into the first movie, which is to say i enjoyed it but wasnt really diehard (id prefer casino royale). But i imagine within the next 3-4 hours :-) Ill be watching it. Its solely on your recommendation, as i wouldnt really have done it without seeing your posts about it. hope youre right!! your last movie selection was dy no MITE

[eejit101]

Watch the first one again first IMO

Transformers is a stinker!

Only managing a 22 out of 100 rating.

[ScareCrowAKA]

They should have put the scene in the movie where the Labuff kid gets out of bumble bee staggering drunk after crashing him into a telephone pole

[sloeddie]

Lol. thats all kinds of wrong.

HAs noone else seen this film??????

Come on people

[freeringo]

Our first viewing is Thursday here.
It is expected to do over 150 mil in the 5 day weekend.
It is expected to open at 70mil in sales.
The sith lords did 107 mil and spider man 3 did 86 mil on opening day.
I can get 5.5 to 1 odds that this movies stays under 150 mil.
No plot and all action? hmmmmmm

I would like to see who else besides Eejit thinks this is the best movie in 10 years. I haven't read a good review yet. cept for Eejits:shock:

Roger Ebert writes:


"Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" is a horrible experience of unbearable length, briefly punctuated by three or four amusing moments. One of these involves a dog-like robot humping the leg of the heroine. Such are the meager joys. If you want to save yourself the ticket price, go into the kitchen, cue up a male choir singing the music of hell, and get a kid to start banging pots and pans together. Then close your eyes and use your imagination.

Aware that this movie opened in England seven hours before Chicago time and the morning papers would be on the streets, after writing the above I looked up the first reviews as a reality check. I was reassured: "Like watching paint dry while getting hit over the head with a frying pan!" (Bradshaw, Guardian); "Sums up everything that is most tedious, crass and despicable about modern Hollywood!" (Tookey, Daily Mail); "A giant, lumbering idiot of a movie!" (Edwards, Daily Mirror). The first American review, Todd Gilchrist of Cinematical, reported that Bay's "ambition runs a mile long and an inch deep," but, in a spirited defense, says "this must be the most movie I have ever experienced." He is bullish on the box office: it "feels destined to be the biggest movie of all time." It’s certainly the biggest something of all time.

lol..
I was curious also..
but now with all these bad reviews..
:)

[eejit101]

Its awesome.

the plot does get a bit thin occasionally, but Michael Bay is awesome and this film is awesome

[navuta]

What is the most awesome? the computer graphics? The special effects or Michael Bay?
Because if it is Michael Bay i Wil not watch it...
I like special effects..
That final Fantasy II final fight is just very awesome too i think..

[eejit101]

Michael Bay is the director.... so he is awesome cos the film is awesome.

And the special effects are uneblievabel

[BobVila]

I was reading a review today with Megan Fox and Michael Bay and they were saying what we already know - that Megan Fox is solely in the movie because she is a fox.

I thought the first Transformers was pretty good and will probably check out the sequel here shortly. Mostly to see Megan Fox.

Anyway, I've always been a Transformers fan and can't possibly miss out on the movie of the year.

[BADBEATCHAMP]

man u guys suck, i havnt had time to go see it yet lol

[allinking17]

I saw it and i have to agree with eejit one hundred percent. THIS MOVIE WAS AMAZING. Lets start off with the important things, i mean thing. Megan fox was stunning in every way possible. I mean i dont think they could have portrayed her better in a pg-13 movie... Def specific scenes to please the megan fox lovers.

The movie was filled to the brim with action that was very well done and the graphics were just amazing. Oh and by the way megan fox was stunning, if i didnt mention that already.

My favorite part of the movie however was the humor. The new autobots (if you have seen the movie then the twins) contribute to this movie like crazy. I was rolling on the floor laughing at half of there jokes. Also the whole moving into college scenes were done beautifully and had myself and many people laughing from memories of their first college days.

All in all it was an absolutely great movie, oh and i forgot to mention megan fox looked really really good.

That is all, just go see it it is worth it.

[BADBEATCHAMP]

i will go see it its just that i havnt had time lately

[eejit101]

Woot, i got an agreeement!!

[navuta]

It is already on DVD?
I cant wacth filmes that where recorded on the cinema..
Just too bad..
:) Im looking foward to wacth transformers 2!!!

[freeringo]

Transformer took in 201 million in the first 5 days
Wow
Way over the predictions.
Good call Eejit.

[DINGO8MYBABY]

You couldn't pay me to see it. I am so sikc of these kinds of movies. They are also bad for filmmaking as a whole, because they prevent more little films from being made. Hollywood says big films pay for small artsy films, but that's a bunch of crap; they just pay for more big budget films.

[eejit101]

You suck, its awesomesauce

[KaciBlakely]

I want to go see this movie so bad. I have not yet, so if any one posted spoilers I would not know. I read the first post alone. I will update this thread to let you guys know when I go see it. To have it put in your top 5 though. That's wow, I've got to see it.

[BADBEATCHAMP]

man i just say it today, its was awsome lol

[eejit101]

See see see see see.

Always trust me!

[freeringo]

See see see see see.

Always trust me!

I didn't trust you when you say you disconnected in tonights game.
But my trust in you sky rocketed (happy 4th everyone) when you called my next blind all in with 4-9.

Cheers my friend.
woof

[twenty47]

hmmmm, i've never seen the 1st part and prob wont see the 2nd one till i see the 1st one, (if i decide to) i'm not a big fan of these types of movies, and if they're long? prob not in one of my movie nights at home....

[terbo71]

You are right eej. Shawshank and Casino Royal are both awesome movies, I own them both and watch them frequently, but Transformers takes the cake I think! My kids watch it and the new Incredible Hulk over and over and I never get sick of either one of them. I still haven't had the chance to see Transformers 2, but I can't wait!

[eejit101]

Indeed they are Mr Terbo

Ringo -- I did disconnect. Promise. The hand i had tried to push with was T9 or something. So 94 is alot worse
