The best of both worlds
No, it really wasnt.
I hope not.I nearly wet myself every time I see a preview on TV.
With "The Touch" by Stan Bush playing in the background. Too bad Optimus gets blasted by a rubble javelin and blasted cause Hotrod decided to play hero and gave Megatron the upper hand. Then again, when you watch it now, its hilarious as it is epic. Nothing like saying the cornyness "Wait, I still function" or "I'll RIP OUT YOUR OPTICS!!!"
As for the movie, I for one enjoyed every minute of it. And now I do admit I was wrong about bashing Megatron's appearance before, after looking closely I did notice the old Megatron look in him.
It was a good thing Micheal Bay issued that last minute change on his head, or he would have made a lot of classic fans very unhappy.
As for Optimus, a majority of the time he had his visor always covering his mouth, and they recruited the 1986 voice actor for him . Too bad Megatron's was rejected because it wasn't menacing enough to fit the appearance, CURSE YOU MICHEAL BAY!
I have seen that movie 5-6 times. From the start with Laserbeak's patrol run to the creation of Rodimus Prime and the destruction of Unicron. And the awesome and corny in-between parts like the Universal Greeting (Bah wheep grana wheep ninny bong!), Grimlock's awesome self-reference lines, Stan Bush's tracks, and the Sharkticons.
And of course, Galvatron gives his thanks to Starscream, by turning him into black scrap metal.
As for that sequel, I for one would like to see Soundwave, and his Autobot Counter part, Blaster.
And its sorta a good thing they may sack Micheal Bay, he just doesn't seem like the director type for a kick-ass movie.
wordI really wish they didn't leave the movie open ended. I mean, it's cool and all to see the bots on the screen and shit, but goddamn I'm so sick and tired of every movie now a days being a part of a trilogy.
Actually, Lucas wanted to finish out his story. He didn't give two shits about the amount of money he made off it, as he donated a shitload of it to different charaties and colleges and shit.I mean, also...was it REALLY necessary to make the last 3 Star Wars movies? No...the original trilogy did so well and became such a hit, and started such a following, that they just decided "HOLY SHIT LETS DO IT ALL AGAIN AND MAKE BILLIONS!!"
I suppose I can accept that. Lucas may be a little high on himself, but he isn't a bad guy. He hit big with the original trilogy, I can't blame him for fleshing out the beginning. The only problem is that out of Episodes 1-3, 3 was the only decent one...sure, nice effects and stuff, but 3 was the only one that was really AWESOME. I was also rather pissed that they left a big gap between 2 and 3, where Clone Wars went on, and you had to see Clone Wars if you really wanted to know exactly what went on.Actually, Lucas wanted to finish out his story.
