ROTF will happen when it happens. Right now we don't know enough to judge it without some guy coming in saying "ASSHOLE FANBOY HATAGE" or "STUPID FANBOY LOVAGE" without having enough information to put him in his place, so it's not worth it.

 

Right now I'm in a mad scramble to get all of the shit I want before I have to resort of Ebay, land of the tortured sellers.

i'm sick of the figures already.... and they haven't even hit the shelves. i only REALLY bought figures from the first movie that cool like dropkick but then i thought "how can i be a collector and not have a single bot that actually appeared in the coolest movie of the summer" so i bought most out of obligation and guilt.

I'm actually really keen on hearing about RoTF's toys. Although I must agree that while a lot of it is failcakes, it's few wins are epic. And I'm hoping we get to see a few more leaks before the figs hit the shelves. I'm confident that RoTF will blow me away, and whatever fails it'll have won't bug me so.

Buckle up, It's only gonna get worse.

 

My big fear will come up in a year and a half and I'm sick of looking at crappy RotF repaints on the shelves.

 

Camo Soundwave! Six Flaggs Bumblebee! Arctic Final Assault Night Defence Roborooter Optimus Prime!

 

Deliver us!

I'm a Transformers fan! From G1 - Animated. I was throughly entertained by the movie, and look forward to ROTF! That being said, I cannot be a fan of every Transformer toy line. I'll admit I've a soft spot for G1, thus my love of the Classics/Universe line. I also enjoy Animated's toys looking, well, like Animated. I love how the movie toys give the look of how Transformers would look in reality. What it boils down to however is economics. I simply can't afford it all, and pick what's best for me. While we don't all agree, we're all Transformers fans, or we wouldn't be on this board! Respect other peoples opinions without the hate!

Here's what I'm sick of. The same as 2 years ago with everyone was screaming how bad TF1 would be, and it turned out to be realy good.

2 years later it's the same dam thing!

"it's so bad" "why can't they just do like they did 25yrs ago" "Michael Ghey" "they're raping my childhood" and the list just goes on...

Yeah they're pushing an envelope, but lets see how it works out on screen befor condeming it, and if the toys don't live up like, well you know what thats on Hasbro for not stepping up to the plate and putting on the brakes like they should have.

 

Quoted for truth!

 

The first movie proved that he has the goods, lets give him the benefit of the doubt and stop nay-saying. Because of the format movies are in and the need for movie producers to make it accessible to the mainstream, the hardcore fans won't always be happy. *shrug, deal with it, don't see the movie, but please stop complaining about it before it's out.

Thats how I got all the Animated crap, well not so much out of obligation, I just wanted to put my money were my mouth was instead of just saying I hate it witout refrence.

 

With more than half the line up getting ready for auction, my oppion has a strong foundation to rest on. Again I tried it before comdeming it instead of just hating it.

 

There are some figures that I'm not fond of, but I'm reserving absolute judgement on everything till I hold it in hand.

No.

It didn't.

They could've made it a blue movie (didn't they?) and renamed it Bionicle or GoBots, and noone would've known the difference.

But, if you think a Michael Bay movie is "good", there's no sense in talking with you. You're the type that thought the last Indy movie was "good" and doesn't know who Val Lewton, Orson Welles, or even Steven Soderburgh are, or what cinematography or pacing is.

You like crap? Fine.

A lot of people do, or American Idol wouldn't win in ratings and Britany Spears wouldn't sell records.

But don't tell us celluloid excrement is "good", Mr. Lucas.

"Damn."

 

"why can't they just do like they did 25yrs ago"

 

Who said this?! NO ONE wants dumbed-down, nonsensical tripe.

 

"they're raping my childhood"

No...just ruining being a fan for 20 future years, as Lucas and del Torro did.

 

Yeah they're pushing an envelope, but lets see how it works out on screen befor condeming it, and if the toys don't live up like, well you know what thats on Hasbro for not stepping up to the plate and putting on the brakes like they should have.

Even if it was a 'kick-ass' toy, who gives two s***s?! I buy the toys to have a representative of the CHARACTER I love. CHARACTERIZATION was the WORST thing about the first "film" (although, it's close to being Shia LaBeouf - who ever thought giving Willard a movie should be shot in the kneecaps and left to drag themselves to the hospital), and I'm tired of people thinking that Jazz is a gangsta thug and Ironhide is a dick.

 

I tell you what I am sick of is the cloud of preconception that fanboy angst that has shrouded this project, as I recall the same gripes before TF1, which again, turned out to be pretty dam good!

 

Really? As fans, we don't have a right to voice our opinion about how the brand is being distorted and, IMO, crapped on by a hack and his moronic cohorts? Remember, popular opinion is popular perception. Everyone thinks that Frenzy is an annoying crack-fiend boom-box, Starscream is a chicken-legged wafer, and that Scorponok is void of personality.

 

There are other properties that make certain that their brand is represented right. Hasbro with their movies, definitely isn't doing it.

 

Oh, and "Mr." Bay, if you want to make bad porn, just make bad porn.

First off new guy, Screw off!!!

I knew enough about the new Indy film to not even waste my time with it!

Music, art, cinema you name it, I've seen it, made it, and can apreciate it on levels you obviously can't!

 

I say this based on the fact that your talking about Lucas!?! Stop being pissed off about how much Star Wars sucks!

 

Then again, I know how to apreciate whats in front of me or pass on it. No point in dwelling on negatives. I say this as a long term fan who breezed through a year of Animated.

 

Still, get in the right franchise. If you did, you'd understand that new tellings are par for course here. But better off, get a fucking life, cause you just seem pissed off about all the wrong things in lue of actual ones. Even still, Characters you love!?! Well you know what, those are still on ebay, go live in the past if you can't accept time moving on.

 

Now I've never condemed anyone for not liking the first film, and only the ask the second have a chance to be released. But since fans should get an oppinion here's mine, GO OUTSIDE!!! Friggin Gyrorobo Looser!

 

(I know, the write up is worth it though)
