That blonde bitch is ugly as fuck, but the movie looks like it has promise. I could actually see the action without thinking I was having seizures from all the fucking camera shake.

Lmao.

But what is everyone expecting? I go see Transformers to watch big explosions and let my brain take a vacation for the duration of the movie.

And looks like this will deliver on both counts.
 
damn that was some hardcore tentacle raping of the building

new chick seems to know her place. not a single word spoken from her during the trailer.

See... because of you I had to go watch that shit again. I thought I missed something. Ugly as fuck? Really? Seriously? Like you wouldn't touch her with a 10' pole?

I'd touch her with a pole. And I'm man enough to admit that it's not 10' long. :awe:

This was the one I read. And I Agree, I see blue orange EVERYWHERE and I think it looks terrible just because it has such a generic look now. Transformers was interesting because it really feels like he's TRYING for that effect in every single shot possible with almost no change in color tone ever. (Though these days I suppose every big name movie uses this color effect EXTENSIVELY)

Blue Washed city with orange explosions.
Blue Washed sky shot with orange/yellow Transformer
Blue Washed shot with more orange in some random details
Blue Hanger with yellow/orange railings
Another Blue Washed City with yellow cabs and orange explosions with yellow autobots against a blue sky.
More Blue washed shot but this time human is the source of orange


This isn't limited to Transformers mind you. I keep seeing it everywhere and it takes away from the enjoyment massively because it looks absolutely terrible and extremely lazy. These days it's like HDR on video games. Sure it has the potential to make it look better by creating a color contrast, but 99.9999% of the time it looks like complete shit because it's so overused and used in a lazy terrible way.

Oh jeez get over yourselves. Transformers 1 & 2 were a blast. Great special effects, great action, decent comic relief, Megan Fox. . .

Yeah it's not exactly Citizen Kane, but who cares? It's a movie based on a freaking kids' cartoon that was designed to sell toys.

1 was entertaining. 2 was WTF.
 
Greatly looking forward to being exceptionally disappointed for the third time.

And jesus christ could they fit any more colors of makeup on that chick's face?
 
The special effects in these movies always make me smile. They're the reason I watch the otherwise mediocre movies. As a computer animator I love analyzing it all and appreciate the work put into it.

Michael Bay has not been shy about expressing his feelings about Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Despite the film making over $836 million in worldwide ticket sales, Bay feels the movie could have been infinitely better.

Perhaps his best Transformers 2 quote came via Empire Magazine when he called part of the film "crap." More specifically, Bay was referencing the mystical sequences in which Shia Labeouf as Sam was able to speak to and be guided by long dead Autobots while on death's doorstep. Consider his remarks confirmation that there won't be any mystical realms in Transformers 3.

Bay felt it was "terrible" to make a movie in which the writer's strike forced the story to be built from scratch in a mere three weeks. He said he had been prepping from months and only had about 14 pages worth of script to work with during that time. In his words, that was "Bs.
