The camera looks stable for once. The action might be watchable.

the fact that Revenge of the Fallen was such a smoldering pile of sh*t. (and no i will not buy the "writers strike" excuse. see Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog for a perfect example of why that excuse is lame).
You can't compare a short direct-to-the-internet short (made on a whim because of the writers strike) to a 200 million dollar blockbuster who's script could not be modified until the strike was over.

This trailer looks awesome. Absolutely no shaky-cam, and no craptastic dialogue has been spotted in any of the trailers. Unlike a lot of you people I can actually enjoy a Bay-flick (first Transformers is the definition of a summer blockbuster), so I look forward to this simply because the man knows action and destruction. Sure the second movie kind of sucked, and this is from a Bay supporter, but I'm still loving what I've seen from this flick.

Oh my (insert deity of choice)!!
This movie suxorz just like the other 2 movies. Micheal Bay is a douchebag.. rant rant, ***** *****.

Sorry, I don't understand how people complain how these movies are bad. "But its nothing like the tv show! nyeeeeh..."

SO?? Neither was GI Joe, or the A-TEAM. See it as a tribute damn it! Not a modern version of the old show! That way you can enjoy all the fancy action and not let your inner bitter, hypocritical, nostalgia hipster come and piss all over it!!

I want to bet and say that over 10-15 years the same people will praise this movie as a cult phenomenon!

Enjoy the simple things in life (explosions and big robots). Because what if that movie didn't come out on that date? Rather have a Kings Speech movie set in Colonial America? Boring.
Its summer! I want action!

This was basically what I was going to say. I haven't seen Revenge of the Fallen, but I loved the first one.
It is good, you should watch it :D

I personally enjoyed both movies. I don't suffer from "Nostalgia" or whatever from the old cartoons. I also enjoyed the game "War for Cybertron". Love it!
THANK YOU! God I am so sick and tired of the naysayers with their rose-tinted glasses thinking that Micheal Ruined Transformers. Personally I think the movies are a shit ton better than the crappy cartoon. (Yes it was crap, but a good kind of crap - Like all the old 80's horror films were crap, but good kind.)
See, I'm a huge Transformers fan. I've been collecting them from 1984 when I first saw Optimus Prime and Megatron at Wal-Mart (Conned my mom into buying them both lol) up until today when I bought the last of the powercore Combiners sets I needed (Dinobots) to have them all up until now.

Even as a kid I knew that the cartoon wasn't great, it's fun, but not great. The comics were where it was at (save for a few goofy issue like Bumblebee going to a rock concert). My favorite thing about Transformers is the engineering that goes into making them. Taking a car and making it so that with some twists, snaps and folds and making it into a robot with it's own personality takes a lot of work. Sadly, Bay wanted realism (in a movie about shapeshifting alien robots no less) and make the transformations work the way they would i n the real world.

That took away all the personality from the robots and made them interchangeable. You can't tell Decepticons apart and the only reason Autobots look different is because they aren't all gun metal grey. Seriously, if you don't understand what I mean, spend $10 on Sgt. Kup or Perceptor at TRU and look at the story the robot mode tells. That's what is missing from these movies.

Well that and writers who understand the source material (the writers of the first movie went to us fans at a Transformers site and was asking things like "So are Optimus and Megatron brothers? Why don't they like each other? Who is the yellow good guy?")

I'm with you on this one. Despite the hate for Transformers 2, I still enjoyed it a good amount and I'm always willing to give this one a chance. It has a good premise and a reason for me to watch it.


Secondly I better see Starscream kick some ass this time around.

Finally, as much as I can't stand Megan Fox, they really really didn't do a good job replacing her. Whoever this new actress is, looks like her lips are inflated worse than Angelina Jolies'

And yes I said it!!

I see Shia LeBitch has a new bimbo.
Why can't they get any likable female actresses? I'm sorry if I make a preemptive strike on this one, but GOD DAMN her lips are HUUUUUUUGE......nasty

Megan Fox was annoying to all extent to me and I'm hoping this new one can at least deliver a performance that takes my eyes off her damn lips. JESUS, looking like Angelina Jolie...*Shudders*

Well, that was cringe-worthy. But then, I suppose I couldn't say those lines with a straight face.

Another stupid action flick with lots of explosions and pretty people.
And I wouldn't have it any other way.
I gotta say the absurdly "good looking" actresses (And in Megan's case, total shitty actress as well) are making me sick.

Transformers are human after all?

This trailer hypes it up well but with the plot once again focusing on the damn humans and the whole moon landing thing being quickly ditched gives me mixed feelings.
I see what you did there!

OT: No matter how bad we think this movie is gonna be, its still gonna make a fuckload of money.

He yells "Optimus!" in every trailer... Also, did the director not pay attention to all the hate online? "The fight will be your own" is nice and all, but people don't want to see Shia fight, they want to see the robot do it.

Ok- say what you will about the continuation of the bland Shia "Nonononono" LeBouf character and his plot or the other uninteresting characters, racist caricatures, childish sense of humor, overly dramatic plot about toys from the 1980s or how said toys look like giant CGI clusterfucks that are incredibly difficult to follow in fights, forget all that for a moment.


Giant robot boa constrictor crushing a building in half... you have to admit that is pretty fucking cool. All Michael Bay movies have that one awesome few seconds from a set-piece event that are a pleasure to watch- but they're really all that's worth seeing in the whole film. So thank you Trailer #2- I've seen enough to be satisfied.. RSVP to be there, you say? ..uhh yea, no.. I think I'm working that night.

I actually kind of enjoyed the first movie. Not great cinema by any stretch, and I do have to agree with Moviebob that the basic concept had waaaay more potential than actually came out in the film, but taken on its own it's a decent action time-waster.
Second one... notsomuch. Had a couple things I liked, but they took everything that was bad about the first one and made it worse. Given how these trends usually work out for franchises, I'm not optimistic about the third.

What bothered me most about this trailer was the soundtrack, especially starting around 2:07. It's like someone's banging a screaming trash can lid next to my ear OVER AND OVER.

Oh christ, this going to be more of the same drivel that my friends dragged me to the last time. Why do i get the feeling i'm going to see even less of the robots? See, optimus prime getting mad is going to be an excuse for him to dissapear for most of the movie, and judging from all the places we see what's his face talking to other people i'm guessing we'll be following him a ton. And then there's those robot aircraft, which i'm pretty sure bay brought in to replace the robots for what he actually loves, military hardware, just in alien form.
