I do remember that they beat the shit out of each other, but it looks like the Deceptecons will fight us mostly? Its kinda the point, but reminds me of Godzilla movies. Its been done to death.
I saw the new Camaro in there too! I want to see a vid of an auto vs. a decep.

I get the impression that the Transformers are a "race" bent on conquest and the ones that try to defend us are dissenters.
That's just an impression and not something that I've heard.

The cause of the war was simply that the Decepticons wanted it. They ended up on Earth by accident.

Homosexual robots don't become gay, they're built that way.
I also remember in the cartoons there were dinosaur transformers in the earth that get unburried and they kicked everyones ass, but were kinda the good guys.

Meh Optimus Prime should be dead Dammit.

Why did that robot give that girl yellow discipline at the end. That was perverse.

They were built, not discovered. The big difference between them and the Autobots (besides their alternate forms) were the brains. I think it was Perceptor that created them. Sadly, he lacked the materials to make fully functional brains. So the Dinobots were pretty stupid and felt just as inclined to attack the Autobot as they did the Decepticons.
Due to their enhanced construction, they also felt superior to the Autobot. In fact, Gimlock (the leader) felt that he should lead the Autobots and attempted to defeat Optimus Prime.

Armageddon (1998)
still, I'm pretty cautious. The teaser had me all giddy like the dweeb that I am but this trailer makes me have doubts. It looks like it could very well become a movie about robots with the names from a popular series, rather than a true Transformers movie. I wouldn't be surprised to find that in attempt to appeal to a broader audience it sacrificed some of its roots... cuz um... am I the only person feeling like this movie is trying to have a post 9/11 appeal? I'm gonna be really pissed if Megatron is wearing a turban

damnit crono. i will have nothing posted that could be considered negative. only happy thoughts so this movie will not suck, and my childhood dream will be fullfilled

Fuuuuuuck this is gonna be the movie of the year ... so far.

Oh man... I am so excited!

Intense! They look so horrifying, I just hope they have the jukebox dude....

Reminds me of that kid in Clerks II. What a great flick.
Yes! They changed their minds. As of 9 months ago, they weren't going to cast him as Optimus.

Son of a bitch, kid, you better be wrong.
Of course I wouldnt put it passed the movie world. However, I really doubt that with this one. Just wouldnt be American. Besides, they just might remember how they fucked up with the newer version of Godzilla.

OMG this movie looks so sick. I can't wait! Optimus looked badass!!!!

LOL who you kidding, American movie makers love to push American propaganda, and make every thing American heroic.

Technically, it's a movie. But I'm glad that you know otherwise.
My point is that the are plenty of movie made in the US that don't paint the US in a positive light.

As opposed to Canadian action movies where they just save the dog?

Dear Hollywood,
Please Please Please Hollywood...don't fuck this one up. You have fucked up everything from my childhood from predator to X-men. Don't fuck this one up too.

They gotta know by now that its just not selling. United 93? World Trade Center? STRAIGHT TO DVD. Its been done to death...hey, I said that already.
Take Aliens vs. Predator for example. Not bad...only cuz we got to see both creatures, but thats the extent. Had they followed the exact comic, the movie wouldve been the best of all the series...and those series needed it.
There have been too many disappointments and too low of sales to mess shit up. I have faith ( ) that hollywoon would eventually learn from its mistakes.

Are you referring to the comics or the Predator sequels?

Yay for all the responses.
Crono, you could be right. I seriously hope they just make a transformers movie, and don't try to bend it to meet some American Image....or make a robot movie and title it Transformers.

Sadly, I can see that happening.
Oh and Optimus DID have flames on his hood in the trailer.
Posted by: Crono1000
I hear that Optimus dies again in this one and that he comes back as an American Flag.

Hollywood doesn't give a shit about learning from their mistakes, because it's a bunch of capitalistic individuals: they're in it for the cash and only for the cash.
And who can blame them really?
Oh and the trailer looks so much better than expected. Never thought Michael Bay would make a film about the transformers! I hope it's a good movie like armageddon or the texas chainsaw massacre and not some stupid hollywood fuckup like the amityville horror. It's got potential for sure.
