Transformers

[JustinD]

Just got back from the 8pm special show thing tonight, was amazing fyi. The reason I made this post though was at the end one of the guys rode on a sportbike, it had some custom flames (I think) but nothing I could pick out for tags. I think it was a R6 but I could be wrong (wouldnt be the first) if anyone watches it let me know.

i think it was a cbr f4i, judging by the headlights...by the how did u like it?

[katana0215]

Ive been waiting for this movie, first one Ive looked forward to in a long time

[SVRACER01]

gonna see it tonight.

[spicy]

i'd say 80% says it was an aprilia, but it could've been an F4i or an RC51... the shot of it was quick, but i'm relatively positive it had the "forehead intake" between the headlights (so ape or RC51)

I loved it, I grew up with the cartoons / toys so I was basically the biggest 12yrold in the movies that night. Even my girlfriend who knew nothing about them still go into the movie, highly recommend to everyone. + the bike at the end was just fun to see, that last movie before that I can think of was I-Robot.

aprillia RSV. even though it sounded like a 4cyl.saw it last night.

Ya I was gonna say RSV. It's definitely an Aprillia of some sort. It did sound like a 4cyl though.

I just got back from seeing it. I liked it. The guy next to me REALLY liked it. He must have been 40yo and he was bouncing all around in his seat like a 5 year old kid seeing something really cool. When the movie was over he was clapping enthusiastically. He was also the only one clapping which made it all that more funny.

A lot of people were clapping at the end of the movie when we went to see it yesterday.....rare thing when you go to the movies...this will be a DVD that will be added to our collection and it's going to be a longggg wait. I *really really* hope there is going to be a sequel....it has to, we have yet to see them all connect to each other to make one giant robot!

On a side note.....it was weird seeing one of my daughter's favorite young actors on Disney channel being in this movie.

I just got home from seeing it!! Freakin AWSOME!!! Everyone was clapping and cheering at the end too.
Finally a favorite childhood cartoon brought to life succesfully.
Optomus Prime was badass!!!

we're talking about Transformers here not Power Rangers

[MissTwisties]

I'm pretty sure I saw the robots unite to make one giant robot in one of the episodes when I was young...

[SVRACER01]

just got back from seeing it... i had a great time... obviously purists will complain, but it was awesome

[JustinD]

I just got back from seeing in the second time, first time was with the girlfriend and second with friends. I didnt put up a fight though, movie kicked ass. I think there will be another, but they will have to go on a bit of a long stretch for the story, or go with something along the lines with the cartoon movie and unicron.

My bad. Guess I should keep my mouth shut. Transformers were a little before my time.

[Crash Dummy Denno]

[katana0215]

That was Voltron.

he is right,
Voltron was 5 robotic tigers that formed one human like robot

[sanfelice]

this thread is friggin' hilarious.

my 2yr old is too young for it, and i'm too old to have watched it on the telly, so i'll wait for the DVD, too.

now, that Ratatouille flick i might see...

[Nate Dawg]

nothing like 20ish and 30ish yr old guys talking about cartoons from their childhood. Gotta love it!
Those cartoons were the best!!
Voltron, Thunder Cats, Transformers, Gi Joe, He Man, and lets not forget
Gargamel and the Smurfs, and The Snorks. hahaha

aprillia RSV. even though it sounded like a 4cyl.saw it last night.

+1 def. an aprillia RSV...the bike was on its side in the first few shots of seeing it (which was disappointing...a bike should never be on its side), but along the lower fairing you can distinctly make out the "Aprillia", and based on the fairing styling, you can tell it's an RSV

otherwise, I thought the CGI and LARP version of the transformers came out excellent, but the plot had a lot of holes, there was a lot of lame humor, and didn't spend enough time developing transformer rapport (ie. you don't see megatron complain about starscream nearly enough).

it was awesome that they used many of the same voice overs (ie. peter cullen from the transformer cartoons still did optimus prime for the movie)

How about that trailer for the movie produced by JJ Abrams coming out 1-18-08
looked pretty freakin cool!!

Its going to be just like Signs...awesome till the end when we see the "monster" then its like WTF? Either that and it will be an OK movie all and all but they will hype the crap out of it and when it comes out it will suck in comparison.

my 2 cents
