Transformers: Dark of the Moon

[Guest Saz]

Saying that, out of all of the characters, Soundwave and Grimlock are probably the two major characters that purist G1 fans (like me) would allow for the most re-imagining because a tape players and a T-Rex just cannot work in 2010. Grimlock needs to be something outrageous, because he's Grimlock; it'll be interesting to see how they tackle him, if they ever decide to.

 

Then again, I've just typed all that out and remembered that Bay made Scorponok a f*cking scorpion-type-thing so maybe Grimlock can work as a "T-Rex-ish-thing" too?

 

Cheers!

 

Grimlock would be ace, I can almost imagine him being found by an archeologist :)

 

However, poor old Soundwave is stuck in orbit as a satellite as shown in the second movie.

For those that haven't heard, this is now officially called Transformers: Dark of the moon.

 

Am i the only one face palming at the title of the film? :lol

It's shit, but then so is revenge of the fallen.

[Guest Phil]

but Revenge of the Fallen tied in perfectly to the storyline.

 

The only way I can think of this subtitle tying into the film is if Unicron makes an appearance at some point.

Or something's hiding on the dark side of the moon waiting to attack?

[Guest Phil]

Yeah but it doesn't say 'dark side' it just says 'dark' so I'm maybe thinking the moon is Unicron and he's all emo or something.

 

Although, Shockwave is the new villain, so maybe he's hiding on the moon?

That could be what they're going with. Strong rumours suggest that the script centres around the Transformers and their role in the 1960s space race between America and Russia, so there could be something planted on the other side of the moon.

First teaser. Uh oh...

[The Icon 152]

It is a nice enough teaser.

[dsrchris 190]

Is that Unicron?!

[Guest Inno]

Three names I've seen discussed in TF circles are : Alpha Trion, Sentinel Prime or Vector Prime

Gutted. I was hoping it was Unicron, just to see if his head came flying off at the end...

won't be one of those two. Don't know why but I'm guessing it'll either be Alpha Trion or the Last Autobot. Seems to have the colouring of the Last Autobot and the facial shape of Alpha Trion, although there's no reason why it couldn't be Unicron, it's not like the transformers films have really paid attention to the way characters look in previous series.

 

Knowing how the films pan out it'll probably be Hot Rod or Ultra Magnus.

 

Having said that, why is everyone assuming it's an autobot? Could be one of the decepticon combiners or something.

[DC 536]

I've heard rumours (and IMDB have mentioned it as well) that Optimus Prime is going to get his trailer in this film.

[Guest Phil]

That's pretty much garunteed, there's been fan shot footage of Prime with his trailer on set.

IGN do a thing on their Youtube channel called Rewind Theatre that looks at trailers for films and games in a fair amount of depth and they've done one for Dark of the Moon, it's not the same as the one above though.

Is there such a thing as a non 3d big budget film any more?

[Guest Anime Otaku]

If it involves stuff exploding or people getting cut to bits, it's in 3D now.

Don't get me wrong I like 3d to an extent. It is just over kill sometimes. One thing though is this 3d filmed in 3d (That is a good thing see Avatar Piranah 3d Megamind) or a film converted to 3d later? (That is a bad thing as the effect doesn't look so good See Clash of The Titans.)
