"Dinobot Grimlock shot to death outside parking lot, caught in crossfire.. details to come"

Good for detroits economy... Hopefuly more film companies go there.

So what did everyone think of the Transformers spot? I did not expect the dinobots to be so large. Thought they might be a little larger than Optimus like the cybertron games portray them. King Grimlock would never go for Optimus riding him lol

Everything but 2 was decent. 2 was one of the worst movies ever in general. What were they thinking...

'The Matrix of Leadership.' Or whatever the hell that stupid prism was called.

I cringed every time they mentioned it. Jesus Christ.

They're shooting Transformers in Detroit. Its so cool being downtown and seeing the autobots and the decepticons in the parking lot, haha.

They have put up a bunch of chinese stuff because its supposed to be in Hong Kong at some point. They have the chinese police cars and errythang.

Tell me - how do you differentiate the actual gunshots from the blanks being fired for the film?

Second was horrible thus this one will complete the trilogy (see what I did there?)

In all honesty see the third it is considered the best, although i still like the first despite its weaknesses.

So what did everyone think of the Transformers spot? I did not expect the dinobots to be so large. Thought they might be a little larger than Optimus like the cybertron games portray them. King Grimlock would never go for Optimus riding him lol

I would like to see more but it looks like they have Optimus hanging upside down at one point.

Maybe they went to Detroit since they can blow stuff up without needing to rebuild it.

This sounds kinda like Patton Oswalt's treatment of a potential plot to Star Wars, episode VII :hmm:

Honestly the casting of characters in these movies needs a big improvement for me to want to see another one. They're awful.

Don't know if you are trolling but it was def a t-rex he was riding at the end. Most of the commentaries I have watched all point to that transformers being Grimlock.

Sadly I have been unable to enjoy any of these films so far. I grew up on the original Transformers series and loved it to death, loved the 1986 animated film too.

But these Michael Bay entries are just too stupid, too frantic, too groan-inducing.
