Transformers July 3, 2007! Can't wait! - Blu-ray Forum

Its been a while since the movie industry has made a movie that really had me pumped. Transformers goes back to when I was a kid and had the figures. Smart of them to make a movie that two generations will go and see. My kid and I will be there day 1 !!!

My kid and I are exited too. The toys are much more complex than when I was a kid. It seems like any transformer over $10, you need an engineering degree to figure out.

while I don't have any kids just yet, I grew up on the cartoons and the action figures so I'm seeing this in theatres no matter what!!! It was the same with TMNT for me too.

I totally believe that hollywood and toymakers are intentionally targeting adult males to market their products. Because once we are hooked, so are our children. It's a conspiracy!

It's a sad state of affairs when my son and I receive the exact same gifts at Christmas time.

My oldest kids all watched Transformers and I had made a couple video tape fulls as they couldn't get enough just like the Turtles cartoon. I didn't like them though. Transformers will kick ass in the theaters and BD.

Yeah being in my early 30's and a Gen x-er I grew up on the original series as well. BTW it gets released on the 4th and not the 3rd. Great reason to go out on the Fourth. Catch the matinee and see fireworks at night. I just don't like how they changed alot of the original bots in the film. Don't really dig the new designs. I will see it regardless. I just hope Michael Bay does it justice. A lot of cartoon series and or videogame movies made in live action don't always pan out. For example Tomb Raider, The Resident Evil series, Super Mario Bros., Double Dragon, etc. were all pretty much crap. Hope this isn't the case with this one.

LMAO!!!

I can't wait for this movie! I've been so hyped since I saw the first trailer. I keep getting more and more excited. My head will probably explode before I can make it into theaters!

I would have to say this is probably one of the only movies I have been truly EXCITED over in a LONG time!

I guess I'm the only one who thinks it looks stupid. I can't stand Micheal Bay or Shiah LaBouf.
