Transformer movie official movie site goes live

[Ckerr812]

hah..that's so awsome.

I liked the little video by speilberg talking about transformers, pretty neat. Hah! and they kept the song too at the end.

I need to buy the original movie on dvd soon:D

[dmonk]

It was a little surreal seeing Spielberg "Geek Out" about Transformers!


This should be great!

[cJaynes]

sweet, can't wait

[ThePumpkinKing]

That's great. I had no idea Speilberg was a transformers fan! I can't wait for Independence Day 2007!!!

[L.Rawlins]

...that's good use of Flash... speedier than I'm used to...

[Simon]

Why does he talk like there was never a movie?

I have the origional on dvd. Not as good as the toys. But the theme tune by white lion, is an amazing metal track... and for a kids film! fantastic!

[Acestrik3r]

He's talking about live action not cartoon.

[Simon]

I've only read page one of that thread but just to be clear, none of the TF clips are official pre-visual work (to my knowledge at least). You'll recognise most of it anyway but I thought it was worth mentioning.

Now laugh at the geeks. heehee.

Wait...

, none of the TF clips are official pre-visual work (to my knowledge at least).

nevermind, better keep my mouth shut.........there were better shots to choose from though

[JasTony]

Now that's just cruelty right there ;). At the very least you could PM me. :)

Did I mention?-----> :)

E: Okay I didn't catch your edit and I think I get the picture.

You didn't miss anything man, it was just pre viz stuff that looked pretty bad....but all pre viz does, and in between was a bunch of 20 somethings talking about how they remember transformers...

If that opening was optimus prime...good god, that is horrible, I am sure Speilberg, or Bay will kick some but to get that looking better...

Come on Dreamworks! So I am assuming also from that video Dreamworks is going to be doing all the effects shots?

[Gentle Fury]

I was excited to see that Speilberg was involved in this project before I saw that Michael Bay will be directing......ugghh.....gonna suck!

[Hazdaz]

So clue me in here.. this movie is going to have live actors with CG robots??

In a way that sounds all hokey, but lookin at the newest adaptations of the TF license (specifically the TF series on Cartoon Network on now), I am glad they didn't do a totaly animated movie.

They probably would have messed it up with too many queer human characters (in typical Japanimation form, they would go from being serious/realisticallty drawn one second, to whacky, over-the-top expressions/dumb poses the next - I so hate that). None of these current ones can hold a candle to the original cartoon series.... so I hope this new movie does it justice.

99SPROTH - I have the first movie too... one of the few DVDs I actually own, and it really was a very good movie - even holds up today!

[Acree]

Oh wow gee I am so looking forward to this, hope they do the transformers justice though.:hmm:
