figured we needed a thread to collect all the various live action clips of transforming cars so we can get an idea of how the effects may look.
here's Prime - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Kk_i1sKUmI&search=transformers
the Citroen spot
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9KYir7J-Uc&search=transformers
and of course the infamous "ILM test footage"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BifBgtad-FY&search=transformers%20test
Bumblebee maybe?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KGL0nrse8Vo&search=transformers%20live%20action
this one doesn't really count (though it does feature a live action Optimus).
the music video for 'The Touch'
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKlcOjIUuRo&search=transformers%20live%20action
the Nike Air Max commercial
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DO4XMj6nAGs&search=nike%20transformer

... and to me at least demonstrates that a shrinking SoundWave need not look corny IMHO. Frenzy's appearance midway thru is sweet.

Frenzy is no where to be found in this clip. If you watch closely near the end there is a Tech Spec that moves behind the white 'cassette' robot that has the name Laser on it.

you're right, I totally could have put it in one post. I started the thread with just the Prime clip, and then it was a case of "oh, here's another clip. oh! here's another one!".
why I didn't simply edit my original post I have no idea.

Meet the insecticons.
When they transformed them in the commercials it was so smooth, you heard clicks, and their guns just slid easily into their hands.
When you transformed them in real life it took like 10 mins the first time, you wound up almost breaking them, and you got so pissed off sometimes that you either gave up or wound up forcing them to transform thereby wearing out the toy too soon.

Lemme guess.... dimensional pocket? :yay:
That's waaaayy to heady for some of the dolts Bay is aiming this movie at (including some of the Defenders here).
That was one of the aspects of Transformers I was most looking forward to in a live action movie. But, I can see why Bay didn't think he could pull it off. Sorta like Emmerich didn't think he could pull off a nuke blast from Godzilla. They're going for realism!!!... lol. :rolleyes:

I don't think it's a stand -in. The tow truck can also be seen here in the Mock up in front of Bumblebee. I haven't read the script but could some humans be driving away. If there were gona use a stand in car to make the others explode i think they would u se a truck made for that not just an old tow truck.

That's my opinion without reading the script.

After watching that again, I think it is clear that the truck is backing up quickly to avoid being shot at. And the cars blowing up out of its way are from being shot at ...

I think he was more giddy about animaniacs, he came out "guns drawn" in the interviews anyways. The whole AI-Minority Report-WOTW-era Spielberg was more of an experimental stage for him . . . he admitted it . . . at least with AI, & MR he did.

I dunno about "giddy." But in any case, it's funny you mention that. In more than one interview about WOTW he alluded to wanting to make a movie that was NOT Armageddon and ID4 crap.... kinda sorta dissing those movies and their cheap cartoony take on disaster and death. I hope he tries to keep that same philosophy with TF. I may not have loved WOTW, but I appreciated his effort.

After having watched Munich- with his brilliant, 1970's Drama style filming of that movie- I am fully convinced that Steven Spielberg is more than a director or filmmaker. He's a bona fide genius. The problem is that he makes me despise Michael Bay more.

That was pretty sweet. I agree w/Spark about the "feel" of the trailer. Its just doesn't bring forth the nostalgia like Jester's does. It IS very much so like your average "Matrix" like movie though. That's what it felt like more to me...Matrix with 1 part Terminator/T2 and 2 parts I, Robot. I hope Transformers has a more unique feel to it. When the Transformers teaser/trailer comes out and you can substitute parts of The Island, Bad Boys/Bad Boys II, Armageddon and other Bay movies in it and not tell the differnence...then call me Mr Underwhelmed.

I know this is vids thread... but this picture from the above video is awesome. I don't know how anycan say the horrendous Maxmum Overdrive truck they're using in the movie is better than this:

That's a nice truck there, but the movie truck is better imo.

Better truck or better Optimus Prime? There's a difference.

I prefer the Optimus in this animation (it's more closer to the original anyways) but I still like movie optimus, but I prefer the movie truck then the one in the animation (which is still excellent).

Both. That truck you posted a picture of looks incredibly cool. It also looks like nothing currently in production, and completely defeats the purpose of being in disguise.

Huh? Nothing in production? It looks EXACTLY like a modern, albeit beat-up, Freightliner Argosy. I'm not even sure if I'd say it's been modded or tricked up.... which you know- with the flames- you can't say about the movie version.

I've never ever seen a truck like one in the movie on the highway. And I spent the better part of 4 years (college) driving voraciously in the industrial corridor in the Northeast (PA/NJ/NY). If I saw one, I'd remember cuz I would have laughed.

ok the truck they are using for the movie is a truck you see on the highways...I drive an hour to work everyday and I see that type of truck(yeah minus the paint job)
The truck that you are saying looks better looks like something out of Mad Max

I see flatnose trucks every now and then, but long nose are more dominant on the roads, and at the place where I go to work everyday. But that's just in my area, of course.

If you remove the Autobot symbol, it still looks like a truck to the untrained truck unconnoisseur.

so i will do a test today....i will drive home(Jacksonville Florida to Daytona via I95) and I will count the long nosed trucks to the flat nose and I will give a fair and accurate count....and we shall see which truch is more prevalent

That's not the point. If they wanted to base the movie in the near future, then they could take all the liberties they wanted with the vehicles. They have chosen to make it based an actual vehicles in existence now. That animated truck, while sharing similarities such as windows, tires, and a flat nose, looks nothing like a production vehicle of any kind. It looks like a Mad Max style rig.

because flatnose are from back in the day, long nose is now.
roach

so it's not ok to change his alt mode into a long nose truck but it is ok to give his alt mode a futuristic vibe(thats a very good way to blend in)

Remove the fuel-tank cover and the top wind spoiler... it's the SAME truck. Fine... a modded and somewhat not-2007 version of it (the above is modern).

besides peterbilts are really excellent looking trucks, and a very suiting alt.mode for a transformer. i think it's perfect for prime, i'm not a big fan of the flames (i don't hate em), but the truck mode in itself is fine.

But that's not the truck from the actual movie, that's a truck from a fanmade flicko.

I don't get it.... now flatnoses are wrong because they're so old that they look futuristic???
In any case, I think you guys are letting the colors and mods or whatever details color (pun intended) your opinion. On the road these trucks are boring as dirt.... just the other day I was looking at a flatnose plain brown UPS truck in the middle of the city when I realized "holy sh* that's Optimus Prime."
All I know, is the truck in the movie is 1) not seen on the road.. 2) not Optimus Prime. It might be "cool" and badass or whatever... but that doesn't change the fact.
