Optimus Gets Mad in New Transformers Trailer

[PunkRex]

I dont think the internet will allow me to be exited for this, but i am one of the supprisingly large group of people who enjoyed the transformers films, having not grown up with the old transformers i found them very entertaining and personally i cant wait for the new one, Let the quote-flaming begin!

I grew up to love the Transformers, i can see why everyone hates Michaels version of them, but really, i don't mind them, i just see it as a Re-imagining if you will.

I can easily separate the 2, and i love both, i just hope in this film every Transformer has a Character to him/her (Looking at you Jolt and RC)

Although your right about seperating the two, Transformers only really has the current level of attention because of the films, so fans should be thankful I suppose.

As for Jolt and RC, I cant really blame extras who got F' all screen time as Bay seems more bothered about the humans in the story and OPTIMUS PRIME!!!

Dont get me wrong Optimus is great but he was far better in the first film, were he fought against a much stronger foe and had to actually think stuff through. The second went for that destiny bolox which I really hate and let us not forget a RAILGUN! Insta kill, REALLY!!! So all that struggle is for nothing.

I hated the second film but I couldn't help enjoying this trailer. Well, I enjoyed the trailers for ROTF as well, but, y'know, let's think optimistically.

Nostalgia, it makes you feel great about your favourite childhood products but then makes you rage at any changes that are made to the original product ( main examples are Pokemon and Transformers).

I actually enjoyed watching the first Transformers movie. It wasn't one of my favourites but it was good. The 2nd one sucked, the action was the only thing that I enjoyed. I won't make any assumptions about this one until I see more.

Not reading through the current 5 pages of posts, but I have to say this. Even growing up on Transformers, I enjoy these movies. Granted, yes, they are NOT what they should be. There shouldn't be all these humans involved and what not but I still accept it for what it is. I highly doubt ANY movie made from anything from mine, or anyone else's childhood is going to be just as it should be in live action movie form. I mean look at the trailer upcoming Smurfs movie! Actually on second thought, don't it's just painful. Bottom line, I'm looking forward to it.

This was basically what I was going to say. I haven't seen Revenge of the Fallen, but I loved the first one.

I personally enjoyed revenge of the fallen even more than the first one, id highly recommend fishing it out if you enjoyed the first one

I enjoyed both, but enjoyed the first one more than the second.
Personally, the deciding factor was devastator digging a hole. And having wrecking ball testicles.
However, I'll probably see this one. Looks like fun, and laserbeak usually means soundwave is in there.
And Soundwave...well...he's fucking soundwave. Also, shockwave

Spoiler: with incredible taste in music (or at least better than sound blast(er?))

All I know is that it would be nice if the Transformers weren't secondary players in their own movie.

I couldn't believe Michael Bay's response to people saying the second movie was so bad, that this one will be better because there's going to be a strong romance in it and characters and all this Sam Whitwhickey crap.
Man seriously does not get it.

People want an actual TRANSFORMERS movie, meaning, that the transformers are the stars of their own movie.

Track how many lines they have from the first movie till this one, bet you Sam's comic relief mom has more.

I looks cool... Sorry, it just does. I know many will hate it, hell I might also, but the trailer was at least cool. :S

Who is the guy in the wheelchair when Optimus is giving his speech?

 

[themerrygambit]

I'm sorry but that Blonde haired model has absolutely no place in this movie. This girl just can't compare to Megan Fox... Stupid Bay when will you learn your magnificent ego just makes you a Bag of douche.

Looks cool otherwise.

Is that Lazerbeak at 1:52?

 

[XShrike]

God damn it am I sick of them tacking on "love" stories to these movies. People do great and amazing this for other reasons than "love".

Intro Music: "We watched the Inception trailer again and again and again.

BAAM. BAAM. BAAM. We get it, it's supposed to be dramatic. But after a while the music was seriously getting painful to listen to.

Shia Labeouf: "WHERE IS SHE!!!!" Megan Fox? She got canned because she is awful. Oh, there's a new girl? Yeah, right behind you, bro.

I feel as though this movie would gain so much by removing Shia Labeouf, hell, that could have saved the entire franchise.

Robots taking over the planet: Eh, that could be pretty cool. Better than Revenge of the Fallen, I'm sure... I hope... Yeah, I hope...

Overall: I like how Movie Bob said it: Toy Cars + Toy Robots. They can "destroy" the Transformer series as much as they want, because in the end, that's all I see as being the worst causality. It wouldn't hurt if they tried to make a decent flick, though.

Looked like Agent Simmons to me. I think that's his name at least.

 

[moose_man]

Didn't think it was that bad, but my attention sort of wandered off in like thirty seconds so I won't be seeing it.

I have given up all hope that in the next few years any transformer movie about actual transformers (opposed to a snort nosed 20 something) will be release anytime soon.

This trailer indicates they still dont understand that in transformers the robots are the main characters not just vehicles for spectacle. While the humans are almost completely unimportant.
I mean if a bully wanted to crush an ants nest and you tried to stop him would any one ants struggles really be that interesting in the scheme of things?

Same thing here..
And in this one it looks like they are actually trying to shoe horn in a plot from clover fields rather than I dont know focus on the giant robots..

If I were an ant, it might.

 

[The Rockerfly]

Why are the explosions in Transformers like fireworks? I find it really off putting and why are they still using shia labeuf he is one of the worst actors I can think of. Even in wall street he was out of place and only serves to be a pain in everyone's arse

 

[Devil's Due]

Its going to be another stupid military recruiting movie. I really have no interest.

I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. You may be in the wrong thread, bud.

As for the thread: I'm not really sure what I feel. Maybe the following expression best captures what I'm feeling about Transformers 3:

"Not sure if want..."

 

[Wolfwind]

I enjoyed the first film. Didn't really care for the second one much.

The third one will be alright, as long as Bay remembers that the movie is called "TRANSFORMERS" and not "Shia Lebouf and Friends: Starring Optimus Prime".

Just make it more about the robots, and less about the humans. And especially less about the love interests. Seriously, nobody went to the second movie to hear Lebouf and Fox compete to see who'd say "I love you" first. NOBODY!

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!

Hmm. I never watched Transformers as a kid - it was before my time - and yet even though I enjoyed the first film (second film annoyed the hell out of me), I can still objectively stand back and realize... okay, this film series is pretty terrible.

Especially considering the material they have to work with, they have made very poor creative decisions. Most of them rhyming with "birected dy Blichael May."
