Transformers 2: Revenge Of The Fallen
 

http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/movies/a...new-title.html

The sequel to last year's summer hit Transformers will be called Transformers 2: Revenge Of The Fallen.

The new title was revealed by producer Don Murphy on his message forum.

Director Michael Bay informed MTV that the sequel will not end on a cliffhanger.

He said: "You know how those sequels they do the second one so you go see the third one? [Transformers 2] is it. First one was just introducing, setting up stuff, so we can go a lot further. Let's just say [this] is not a lame sequel."

Shia LaBeouf, Megan Fox, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson and John Turturro will star in the sequel, along with franchise newcomers Isabel Lucas, Rainn Wilson and Matthew Marsden.

Transformers 2: Revenge Of The Fallen is scheduled for release on June 26, 2009.

I was going to come in here and complain how the sequel two parter was getting cliché' but the I remembered this was a Micheal Bay vehicle and realized my point was moot.

Megan Fox hot, Transformers film shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhite.

rainn wilson yessssss

Michael Bay movies are really a throwback to the days when movies used to be really long but contain an intermission to get up and stretch a bit, except these contain so much exploding shit that the "intermission" needs to be at least a year for the average person to collect his bearings. Now that's film making!

:rofl:

rofl

Who the fuck came up with that title. This isn't fucking Star Wars, it's giant robots beating the shit out of each other. THERE IS NO SUBTEXT.

Sweet. School Boy from Rambo is gonna be in this.

I WAS GONNA POST THE OFFICIAL THREAD TODAY!!!!

Anyway; they're filming now for a Summer 09 release. Autobot Arcee is confirmed as a motorcycle (no surprise there) and there will be a transformers based on an ice-cream truck and a huge Blackbird jet. An Audi R8 was also seen being chased by the good guys, take that as you will. There may be as many as 10 TFs on both sides, and rest assured Soundwave will make it in there with his most popular minions Laserbeak and Ravage. No; he will not be a damn strereo, get over it.

I've been up and up on the news and this thread will be my vent spot. Don't worry, I despise spoilers and if I run into one (like I did two days ago, damn!) I'll spare you the jist.

Roll Out!

If this does not lead to Unicron in some way shape or form I will personally leave flaming poo on the doorstep of everyone involved.

Till all are one, bitch!

First of all, I object to that. Transformers does in fact have subtext, it's just that sometimes it's paper thin and shitty.

Additionally, The Fallen refers to a rather obscure character in the Transformers universe, and since he does have a connection to Unicron I shall now go and masturbate.

And, I demand that the third installment be called "Transformers: Revenge of Unicron's Beard."

I highly doubt the movie will so much as reference Unicron. It just wouldn't work at this stage of the movie franchise. Yes I know about the Fallen, and Hasbro's recent lock of the name. Yes I know about their relation to Unicron. Yes I freakin love the concept of a planet sized TF. But no, I don't think he'll work at all in live action, especially with how Bay set up that universe in... believability (can't believe I said it).

I'm still sporting the "If Unicron no-shows, I riot" sign, and nothing is going to stop me.

In a Michael Bay movie? Ya think?

The would revenge would imply that the character would have been introduced by now if that was going to be the case. They're probably just dicking around people who actually know this obscure fact.

This is Michael Bay. He aspires to paper thin and shitty subtext.

Anyway, are you sure it's a ref to "the fallen?"

Well, he could be out for revenge for something that happened before the movie.

I'm not saying you're wrong, just pointing out the obvious way that it could still make sense. Could, but probably won't.

However, since we're out to make a Trilogy here....

Unless I hear otherwise I'm just gonna assume it's a reference to Megatron being reborn as Galvatron. And he'll probably resurrect some of the others who got killed, or something.

Hey, maybe we'll get EVIL JAZZ! :eek:

Even coming back would make more sense.

Lol Matthew Marsden

There's gonna be a lil 'Former, with an RC truck vehicle/toy mode. He's gonna go BIG in merch. Appearently he's Sam's pet or something.

Starscream needs a bigger role in this one.

Oh Good. Marketing.

I can't wait for this movie. I really can't.

And I really hope they do use the Fallen...he's on fire...all the time. HE'S PERFECT FOR BAY!

Matthew Marsden scores yet another sequel role....legend.

He'd be perfect for Bay if he was constantly exploding.

He will, ye old sock.

Transformers 2 : If Its Burnable, Burn It

Transformers 3 : Gas, Match, Boom, Rinse and Repeat

Transformers 4 : Explosions In The Sky...And Eventually Everywhere Else

Transformers 5 : The Making of Bad Boys 3

Well I tried to post pics of megan Fox kissing Shia on a motorcycle and a new small transformer attacking a car but the pics came up as those red x's in a box.

They announced a few days ago that the title has changed once again....not a huge change but it is a change that many people were hoping for...

Instead of.....

Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen

Its now....

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

Numbers are so last Summer.

I personally think this will be a reference to The Fallen. I mean, it would seem to fit, there will be a trilogy, and the character is apparently pretty cool. But come on, Skywarp! Get your payday! :shifty:

I am also a fan of Skywarp.

Going back on my previous thought, it seems that the sequel is indeed about the Fallen - the first Cybertronian. I guess we'll see.

HOT

And that face more than resembles the Decepticon symbol...

piitb mos def

...Yeah she's in it, too.

I thought the first film was a bit naff. I really only went to see the first out of nostalgia, and because Megan Fox is a fox. But can't say I wish to see any more films... or atleast spend money to see them.

Can't wait for this.

I would sex megan fox until my tally whacker fell off.

1st was excellent. This should be too.

A significantly brighter version....

oooooooooooooooh

is that the fallen?

As long as he fucks right off with the "superzoomedinblurowtfisgoingonovision" it could be a good movie. I still can't believe the massive balls up they made with barricade in the first movie, on his way to the end battle then never appears. Plenty of people were saying it was a large editing error with others saying they just wanted to keep barricade around for the sequel. If they did why didnt they just cut the scene where he said he was en route with the other decepticons?


The decepticons really need more screen time this time around, last movie you just seen small glimpses of them and nothing more.

But yeah, as long as he cuts back on that zoomed in shit i will enjoy it, too many of the fight scenes in the first it was hard to tell wtf was going on, that and prime geting his ass handed to him in the final battle with barely any offence.

:foc:

The first one was easily Michael Bay's best movie, which isn't saying much, but it was good. It wasn't lifechanging or cinematic art, but a lot of fun. I liked it a lot, and I have pretty much always hated Michael Bay movies.

This one looks like it's shaping up to be cool, but it has the potential to suck really bad. If they focus in the wrong direction it could become an overdone or unoriginal sequel, and fall back into the probability of being just another terrible movie.

It also has a chance to be really entertaining, if it takes what worked in the first movie and goes further with it.

I hope the second happens.

The first one, in my opinion, was crap. Great effects, good acting, the transformers themselves were great, but the story just didn't feel right. I hope that this will be one of the rare cases that the sequel is better than the original, but I sincerely doubt it.

Autobot, Sideswipe (Chevy Centennial Corvette):

http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h2...2sideswipe.jpg

Just the toy, but a good idea of what he looks like.

Wow, what a shitty looking corvette.

Yes.

Never had a problem with Michael Bay's movies. Frankly, I think they're a lot of fun, and most people take them a lot more serious than they should be.

Well it depends on the movie. Pearl Harbor and The Island are meant to be taken seriously. They're not fun. They're fuckin terrible.

I'll agree with you on the rest though. They are meant to be fun and a couple of them are to me.

I think we need more, better pics of Megan Fox.

Damn you, nipple pads!

Apparently there is going be a trailer for this, and the G.I. Joe movie during the superbowl. Honestly gonna watch it just for that, since none of the teams interest me.

I wonder if it will be a cliche suckfest like the first one

1. There MUST be a Sgt. Slaughter cameo: AND THAT'S AN ORDER!

2. If they feature the Dreadnaughts, CM Punk has to play Zartan. for 2 reasons:
a. Put black paint on his face, he's a dead ringer.
b. He's already got the Cobra tat.

I posted the Snake Eyes pic because I had nowhere else to post it, he won't be in Transformers 2. Sorry if anyone was misinformed. But I got some new TF2 material to drop in a few.

EDIT Update:

Two of the new Autobots. Very expressive!

A small pic showing the Autobots cruisin the streets. Now that's a convoy. The above Autobots would be the 5th and 4th cars respectively.

Soundwave (Toy). No shots of his pet, Ravage yet.:

• Devestator is "fucking huge" and will act true to his namesake once the Constructicons form him (he looks like a gorilla!).
• One of the Autobots from the 80's movie, Springer, is confirmed. He'll be a helicopter again.
• Megatron might not return afterall.
• No shots or even description of The Fallen, or even if he'll be on fire or not.

DON'T DROP THAT SHIT!

the yellow cake I mean. By all means drop the Transformers news

From one of the writers:

* With many of the Decepticons being CGI, there is more freedom to add scenes in post-production. Adding extra scenes with Transformers is currently under consideration.
* As a follow-up, Roberto said one extra scene being considered was director Michael Bay's idea with Bay saying, "You and the fans are gonna love this..."
* Starscream's character will be more similar to his Generation One self.
* Roberto states that Producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura's comments in Empire that there are around 40 robots was not an exaggeration.

I'm supposed to inform the Noob that posted this that 13gb.com does not allow hot linking.

Ravage, FTW. And the big fucker at the end is not Devastator - just one of the Constructicons.

looks hot

Also, what the fuck does soundwave transform into?

Pretty sure all the hardcore transformers fans out there are on the verger of a murderous rampage.

Cybertronian jet from the looks of the toy. I've heard his Earth form is a satellite as well. I'm hardcore TF, and I am stoked.

As long as he has that kickass voice from the cartoon, or something like it at least.

trailer is down

Word was that Megatron wasnt going to be in the film but in the new toyline for the movie Megatron makes an appearance as a newly improved tank. Now if thats in the movie or not remains to be seen till the movies release. But untill then I just have a huge problem with soundwave being a jet....but then again I guess he couldnt be a tape recorder in this day in age.

Fixed.

Yes, the voice is in. Updated, but it's in. His voice, head, and Ravage were things the writers were serious about.

Right Fucking there, brother! I think the voice is just as important, if not more important as him being a casset deck!

congrats anyhow on 40K. I don't get the Devestator/Gorilla thing, but I do agree with making SW more 'modern'. The CGI team goes through great lengths to ensure that these guys aren't shifting mass and all that(I fogot the actual term). An 18 story robot can't become a boom box, unless it's the source.

That is a very good point. I honestly don't care about the accuracy of SOundwave as much as I hope that Starscream gets a bigger better role.

Why the fuck would they keep soundwave a boombox int he movie? Maybe if he was supposed to be a little runt, like the guy in the first movie, but this is an action movie. It just doesn't translate to screen.
It's like making bumblebee a fast muscle car, instead of a volkswagen beatle. It just makes sense for heaven's sake. Not everything has to match the children's cartoon from the 80s.

Are you fucking high? Are you happy with the way he was portrayed in the first movie? Starscream needs to have more of a role that is befitting of the second in command of The Decepticons. I will deem TF2 a utter failure if they drop the ball with Starscream.

I liked Soundwave, I LOVED Starscream. I would rather see more of him than an 'accurate' depiciton of Soundwave. Hell, let him be a supersonic jet, or let him have surveilence advantages, just let Starscream rock shit.

That's not the issue. You missed the point. Why the fuck would they want a radio to be a character in a movie? Where's the sense in that? Let's have this cumbersome, boring, trivial object be a character in our movie.
Yea, I think people would rather see a jet, seeing as it can get from point A to point B in a manner other than being carried on some gangbangers shoulder.
Again, they're making a movie here. It's not saturday morning cartoons for 6 year olds.

A kalyx said, that's just his cybertronian form. His earth frm is some sort of satellite thingy. Which I'm ok with, since he still has ravage, and the awesome voice. He would have worked as a casette player 15 years ago, but this is 2009. Some changes have to be made. That combined with the reported old school portrayal of starscream is making me a fan of this already.

I'm convinced that the fanboys of the world have gone soft. I just hope the movie has quality. The interesting nature of the robots hasn't been comprimised.

As we were talking about in the GI Joe thread, I don't know why anyone would have a problem with changes as long as the basic ideas are kept in order.

So, when Transformers are new outlandish designs, rather than old outlandish designs: no harm. It's an update, and a freshening for the sake of translation to film.
Let's be honest, jets and fast cars lend themselves to an action movie more than tape recorders and volkswagens.

When what makes the material compelling is utterly ignored, then there's an issue.

I'm pretty sure Transformers still features a range of different cool shit transforming into other cool shit, with colorful and diverse characters.

What are YOU talking about? Just because he was a loud mouth backstabbing asshole doesn't mean he can't kick ass too. He was powerful enough to be second in command of the decepticons, ffs.

And he was dangerous in a sneaky sort of way, to Megatron. To the autobots, he was dangerous in an ass kicking sort of way.

Most badass scene in the frst movie was when starscream tore the shit out of those jets. It's great if the rumors are true about his personality being like the cartoon, but I hope he doesn't lose that badass factor from the first one, because he should be powerful, as well as an asshole.

BDC has gone bye-bye, do you have any thoughts on the matter Figgy?

hint: you're supposed to say "I'm terrified beyond the capacity for rational thought"

I mean his name alone is badass. Starscream is the most badass name ever. I even made a thread on this, and no one could come up with a name more badass than starscream. It stands to reason that he would have to be something of a badass, at least in combat.

Starscream is such a badass name, and although he had a small role in the first one I thought he was portrayed awesomely.
I also thought his escape, and surivival was so in character, and will be enhanced in this next one.

Again, not everything has to be touched on in the first, or even second film. They're developing a franchise here, and I thought the simple focus of the first movie was the right move. It paid off.
Now, they should ratchet it up another few notches for the second act. It looks like that's what they're doing.

Maybe you should change your avatar to like Destro or something, because you clearly know nothing about transformers.
