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

jctash · 06-14-2007, 01:09 AM

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.

Opening day....im there....alert is on for fandango......will arrive an hr or longer before the movie.....good seats and enjoy!.......My favorite has always been Megatron, I guess Ive always been a Deceptacon by heart

Forresttheman · 06-14-2007, 04:43 AM

looks really entertaining! i shall be there on day one with my family

jctash · 06-14-2007, 04:51 AM

I'll admit I bought my son the Optimus toy and have found myself "helping" him transform it. The film has officially been moved to July 3rd, probably to capitalize on the midweek holiday opening.

chadunc · 06-14-2007, 05:53 AM

I have been so pumped to see this ever since the first trailer was out. Even if the story sucks, and the actors are boring, the action will carry you through it. How damn cool is it when the transformer jumps up and turns into a jet fighter in the matter of seconds. Just awesome looking. Definite must see of the summer.

Footloose301 · 06-14-2007, 11:45 AM

I'll be there opening night

bluraydog · 06-14-2007, 05:38 PM

i cant wait till it opens, be there opening night, i tend to not to go to the movies causes it crowed, too many cell phones and its like a day care center for kids. but this is a must see and i cant wait for it to come out on bluray

bluraydog · 06-14-2007, 05:40 PM

i also forgot to mention that i was so excited to see these movie that i went out and bought the cartoon movie the other day and damm did i enjoy reliving the past

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!

EvanX · 06-14-2007, 06:59 PM

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

if nothing else, there will be great cgi, lots of explosions, and loud noises

Blasphemy!!!! Stone him!! LOL. I can agree about the Shiah statement though.

The Don · 06-15-2007, 07:37 PM

I want this movie to be good...but even by the previews, it reminds me of war of the Worlds....just on the feel...

I was not a fan of that movie AT ALL...

and while I know it isn't good to base a movie off the previews...it looks like another movie where they take a dump on the film and expect to make money off the name...

this seems like the popular choice anymore...

Fantastic 4 on the other hand....this one looks interesting...

I hope Transformers ends up being good....but I have serious doubts right now..
