Hey everybody,
As my first post here on SuperHeroHype.com, I'd like to tell all of you that over at YouTube.com, the first exclusive preview for "Transformers: The Movie" has just been released so if you want to see it now before everyone else next Tueday, head on over to the link below because it is so friggin' awesome. Probably the biggest tease ever. So I'll stop talking now so you can check it out!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-uKst1Hd9c
What do you all think? :eek:
It's not the best quality but it's a good look beforehand but I can't wait for the High Definition version next week on Tuesday.

HOLY ****:eek:
Transformers
Trailer #1
Running time: 1:36
The trailer begins with quick shots of a rocket preparing to launch. Your basic pre-flight stuff. You can hear flight control and the countdown. You then see the rocket blasting off.
IN 2003,
THE BEAGLE 2 MARS ROVER
WAS LAUNCHED
You see the probe entering the red atmosphere of Mars.
WE WERE TOLD IT CRASHED
Many shots of the rover on the surface of Mars, all shown from a variety on cameras on-board the probe itself.
ITS FINAL TRANSMISSION WAS
CLASSIFIED TOP SECRET
More shots from the rover’s point of view.
Suddenly, you hear heavy footsteps coming toward the rover, and a shadow falls over the rover. A humanoid robot shape steps into the rover’s view, but it stands in front of the sun, silhouetting the robot.
After a beat, the robot smashes the rover with its fist.
IT WAS THE ONLY WARNING
WE WOULD EVER GET
Now we see the Earth almost exactly as it appears in the teaser poster (but without the eye). The orchestral theme begins to swell in an ominous way.
The TRANSFORMERS logo then appears as it looks in the teaser poster.
The logo itself then transforms very complicated-like into
7.4.7
Which then transforms into the Autobot symbol.
Overall, a very foreboding tone to the teaser. It fits in well with the tagline of “Their War. Our World.”

This doesn't have anything to do with the movie! Decepticons on Mars?! That's just nonsense!

It's only really funny if you'd been listening to Don over the year or so and gotten to know his personality. He treats the fandom like garbage (he calls Transformers fans "Stooges") and happens to be a complete and utter racist (his threads on how all Germans are Nazis was very endearing).
So the petty part of me does enjoy seeing him taken down a notch.

because any location on Earth doesn't give the idea of an intergalactic war. plus, if you see a robot on Earth you could get the wrong impression that humans made the robots. if you see a robot on Mars there's no way you can get that impression.

Absolutely wrong. A volcano erupting (as has been on the news recently!!!).... and an obviously ancient robot or ship excavated or exposed out completely evokes more sense of wonder than what was shown in that "teaser."
Even the leaked storyboard of the Transformer frozen in ice in Antarctica- though a cliched origin as well (The Thing, X-Files) is better than what was shown in that god-aweful teaser.

For the people complaining, Try to relax, breath and not to have an aneurysm, it's only a bloody teaser. Most movie TEASERS never even have footage to begin with and mearly a few flashy animations that they show the movies Title over (Case in point, 2002's 'Time Machine' did this, nothing but fast blur effects and some text. Fairly common).
Would I have liked to see tons of footage and characters, well yah, but relax all in due time.

I'm not really blown away by this. But the MOVIE won't be out for over a year.
This teaser is obviously to get people who don't know anything about the movie yet excited.
Some little boy out there is going to be sitting in the theater,see the teaser,shout "Did you see that robot!?" and then be shushed by his mother. His interest will be stirred and one year later he'll get his parents to take him to see it.
That is what the teaser was for.
Loved the transforming text though.:up:

06-29-2006, 03:50 PM
it was definitely Megatron, if you freeze the frame when it showed half of a body in total darkness you can see a tube like shape on the left screen/ character's right arm. The body shape is too small to be a tank like transformer which we have all led to believe Megatron is a tank instead of a handle 35mm gun like in the G1 cartoon. The trailer suck by the way without revealing too much. They should goo all out on the teaser like with Spider-Man 3.

cybertron is outside of the milkyway,humans havent yet developed the technology to travel that far.finding decepiticons on mars isnt a surprise really since they are programmed to conquer,so they are probably seeking out new worlds to conquer.

You know everyone is complaining about the teaser and oh it doesnt show anything why mars waaa *insert fanboy wailing*. But look what the teaser has done. It has accomplished its' purpose. People are now talking majorly about Transformers. Yes, we were all talking about it before, but now it will be reaching mainstream. So like it or not, by talking about the teaser, you are doing what they hoped you would do, spreading the word, good or bad. I personally liked the teaser, got you hyped up for more. The SM3 teaser is really more of a short trailer. Showed too much for a teaser, not that I'm complaining lol.

I was really hoping for some last minute voice over work for the ending "Transformers" logo sequence, oh well.

Wow. Stock footage, followed by a shadow.
Pathetic. What a waste of time.
They could have waited, put together a teaser that uses actual footage, and actually ties into the movie in some way. Nobody would have minded the wait.
This doesn't have anything to do with the movie! Decepticons on Mars?! That's just nonsense!
I Agree with those people say it's just a Teaser, so Chill out.
Maybe we will get 10+ more trailers before the movie comes out next year.
I predicate another Teaser trailer by December/Holiday time and Hasbro will sell a TONS of Transformers toy along the same time!

For all the baby men who cry about everything, QUIT THE SITE NOW, dont come back and forget about the movie. Go away- if i dont like somthing i stop looking at it. The teaser sucked to you so there, forget about the film. Im hyped for the film and im not worried if they dont comepletely mimic a retarded kids cartoon, these guys act like a low budget cartoon who's sole purpose was to help market at toy was a truly intense and well written drama-news for you-IT WASNT-it was cool to you then because you were 8 or 9 and high on sugar smacks or pop tarts. Very little thought was put into the mythology of the transformers-some jerk at hasbro had to think of a quick explanation why these unstoppable robots turn into ambulances and boom boxes. I loved the cartoon as a kid, but its because i was a kid, now when i watch it i see it for what it is, bad animation that promotes a toy that does one thing, transforms. If you think bay movies are corny, you may be right, but i gurantee the transformers will look great. Will the plot be good? Hopefully, but its not shakespeare, how could some one complicate good and bad robots stranded on earth or just fighting over somthing on earth? im personally hyped for the film.

The problem isn't that it was a teaser. The problem was that it was a bad teaser. Both Superman and POTC2 last year had perfect teasers. They gave nothing away from the story, but gave you feel for what you were going to see on the big screen. Same with the first Spidey teaser (Which was something amazing in concept).
This reminded me of the first POTC trailer, with the exception being that this just looked silly. The robots movements were terrible, the build up to nothing is just wrong, and the only shot we actually get of anything is the stuff nightmares are made of.

Seriously though, the last thing that teaser made me think of was Transformers, if it didn't say TRANSFORMERS in big bold text, I wouldn't have known.....

Yet the WOTW teaser was about the same. Nor did it have anything from the movie really. But it sure teaser and got the general audience interested. And there weren't many effects finished enough for the teaser. Much like giant robos.

teaser or trailer, whatever.
Did it tease me?
kinda, because I want to see a goddamn transformer, not the beagle crash. Ive seen that crap over and over years ago.
Plus, the transformersmovie website is down, is the official site's quality better than the rapidshre or youtube versions??
they are kinda dodgy, or is it intented that way?

BTW. I agree on Mars being a bad idea.

But that's the point. Everyone who will see it in the theater who doesn't know about the movie (and despite what it may feel like on this site, that's probably a majority of the world) would be thinking the same thing. They'll get, what I thought was, a nicely suspensful buildup with a conspiracy theory to boot. And even if their thinking they've seen that a thousand times in movies, the shadow appears and they'll be 'WTF?' Then the text transforms on the screen and they'll be saying 'Holy ****!!! Transformers???" And they'll flash back to the glory days of their cartoon-watching childhood and be very hyped for anything and everything released dealing with the movie.

They've been filming SM-3 for 9 months already,of course it had more action in it
Plus that team has two movies behind them. It's a massive advantage.
Not to mention the fact that they can fill much of the trailer with recognisable non-cgi characters.

The WOTW teaser was nothing like this. If i remember correctly it was the heat ray scene with the bridge being destoryed and Fanning turning around freaking out. If they did something like that here it would of been great.
The movement of less than 5 seconds of footage was silly? Wow you got that from that little bit of shadow. amazing. The stuff nightmares are made of? Well you got one thing right.
Ever seen Ed Wood. The scene were Depp goes through the stock footage? That is what this felt like. Like someone put together some random footage, and said "BEHOLD"! The problem is that it looked like it was directed by the actual Ed Wood. :o

What is all this ***** about SM3 being a better trailer? Didn't you guys/girls/whatever actually see the official site labelling it an 'Announcement Trailer'? Wait until the real teaser trailer is released before you make you judgement.
SM3 has been filming for quite a while, I've even heard talk that they have filmed some stuff for the trailer only, so of course there is going to be more in that trailer than in this one.
I for one am looking forward to this movie and to however many trailers that we will see in the next year. To edit slightly Hell killer's sentiments, if you think it is ***** f**k off and grow up.

Transformers are popular. The average movie-goer has probably had some exposure to them before and know there are the good transformers and the bad. Just ask someone to name 2 transformers, who do you think they'll name? Optimus and Megatron.
The trailer was decent. Nothing great. It's a teaser so there's nothing exception about it.

I think the website got caught with it's pants down. My only explaination is that they had no idea there would be so many people wanting to see it. I however see it as a forgone conclusion.

At the very least, we could have seen something transforming. This was just a trailer for a generic robot on Mars. Not necessarily a Transformer.

Okay it finally loaded and i must say i'm not impressed. I hardly felt any tension, the music was nothing special and the footage...well...couldn't they have shown a little more?I know they've only shot for 1 and half to 2 months but still. The only thing that will turn heads in theatres is the name 'Transformers'.

I think they were underestimating THEMSELVES.
Whether the movie is any good or not it is gonna open HUGE and I really can't see why so many people on the hype believe it won't. It's the frikken' Transformers for god's sake! For many children of the 80's this is a big a deal as the first Spider-man or X-men films were.

I would have much rather waited a few more months and seen a better trailor.
I think they might have got the heads up on the Spidey3 trailor coming out earlier than expected and threw something together.

Yeah the comparison between both teasers isn't to the advantage of Transformers, to say the least.
Very poor teaser, gives me low expectations for the film but eh, it's a Michael "Über Boll" Bay movie, isn't it ? ;)

Denis Lalumiere
06-30-2006, 02:44 AM
and another thing... this teaser seems to implicate that all the transformers are bad (as they don't differenciate between the good and bad transformers) and that they come from mars... now we may know the difference, but your average movie goer won't.
poorly constructed teaser.
I truly think theyre plans is to have all humans (except Sam aka spyke) to think that they are all bad,theirefore all the same....

That was defenitly tank megs. Besides the shape of the head. You can see something on one of his arms that isn't on the other. And for a split second near the end when he punches the camera you can tell he's green.
What are you smokin,drinkin..etc,etc....
From what we see (so little may I reply) This Robot,which seems to look like Megatron ,agreed.But being on Mars would imply that HE as not been to Earth yet.Meaning no Tank or anything or forms that would be from Earth ...

Okay just ducked into the trailer here after letting Michael know that the teaser site is crashing every few minutes because of the insanely heavy traffic. He was pleased and commented that it is NOT a trailer. Or even really a teaser. He called it an "announcement" and I guess it is. I mean there's no footage from the film in there. We are on Day 29 of 81. Still so much to do.

And Megs won't be on Mars in the film so your point? It's just a hint. And like don Murphy said it has no footage from the movie, it's just one of those teasers that are like mini movies. Jesus.

Some of you people have some pretty demented ideas as far as what you should be seeing this early in the game. The movie has only just started FILMING, and we're talking about a movie that will involve massive amounts of CGI--which will be done, for the most part, AFTER filming. Chances are, there's very little material they COULD show you. What, you want some footage of Bernie Mac in your trailer? Would that be better? Because it's hugely unlikely that many, if any, sequences involving the Transformers are actually complete.
In any case, the trailer did something very important for me: confirmed we're looking at a sci-fi epic, not ET with Transformers.

I thought it was crap personally, i wish it came out before spidey3 teaser as i may of thought differently.
I liked the effects at the end tho with the text transforming into 7.4.7
It's like i said before. Steven could be hinting at the fact that the reason mars has no natural resources could be the fact that the decepticons landed on mars anddrained all the resources for energon. The autobot could've landed on earth at the same time and that could be why they are earth defenders, or could be just protecting their source of energon

Actually, the Martian sky is blue during certain times of the day.
No.
On Mars, photographs from both landers (the Viking from 1976-78 and the Pathfinder in 1997) suggested that the sky is always a butterscotch tan color. Mars appears to have a permanent haze of dust, which remains suspended in the air after duststorms. The dust is the mineral "limonite," a brown iron oxide, the same mineral that forms most of the Martian surface. The sky is not blue as on Earth because Martian air is extremely thin and the limonite particles in the air are large relative to the wavelength of visible light. The reddish particles preferentially absorb blue light and effectively act as mirrors by scattering the remaining wavelengths: the color of the atmosphere is therefore pinkish, like the particles themselves.

Because regardless of the reason, the Martian sky turns blue in color. Obviously it's because of the way the sunlight is refracting off elements in the atmosphere. The same way light refraction off our atmosphere turns the Earth sky blue, red, orange, and a whole host of colors depending on location, time of day, and season.

Like 'Bigmac. a McDonalds product.'
meaning, we know it's from Mc.D. but you don't have to rub it in our face...

My hope for the film haven't dropped one bit, but I've got to say that teaser SUCKED. Yes I know teasers aren't supposed to show much, but they ARE supposed to excite you. This didn't make me the slightest bit more excited than I was before seeing it. As someone else posted, if it didn't say Transformers in huge text, you'd have no clue. I wouldn't have a problem with them putting such a vague trailer out if they didn't ****ing hype is so much. I mean a countdown and everything, only to show us mars footage that has nothing at all to do with the film.
No this doesn't show us the tone of the film. What, the film is going to be tight shots of NASA equipment? These guys are depending too much on us saying "Transformers? OH MY ****ING GOD I MUST SEE THAT!" So while this trailer may serve its purpose for those who didn't know they were making a Transformers film (barely) it's only going to dissapoint anyone who's heard the news.
My point is, we got a ton of hype and a crap teaser. Compare it with the pre-9/11 teaser for Spider-Man. One is entertaining and exciting, one isn't. Guess which is which.
Octoberist
06-30-2006, 01:10 PM
I just think with the Spider-Man 3 teaser showing so much (it was great) it made the Transformers teaser look like crap.
It wouldn't matter if they kept this teaser or just had a cheesey 3D Autobots logo against a black screen: It showed nothing.
but to be fair, the production of Spidey 3 has been chugging away since Janurary (with pre Production since 2005), so I'll give Bay a pass.

Ya think? I mean, sky color shifting as the sun sets? Crazy!
The point is what color the sky normally. Ask anyone around you and they'll tell you the sky is blue here on good ol' terra firma, even though we all know the hues shift during the transitions from light to dark.

I don't quite see what everyone's gettin so worked up about.
I mean, it's not even a teaser.
It says "Announcement Teaser".
It's like a teaser for a teaser.
Something Spidey 3 didn't have.
If you're gonna compare teasers, wait until the teaser is out!
And Mars is being used because it's the closest planet to Earth.
The "last stop", if you will.
Either way, I really enjoyed it.
The use of real-life events to promote a sci-fi epic was a good idea.
Not necessarily new, but good.
I'll be eagerly anticipating this one, until I can be persuaded otherwise. :up:

Oh, so it's an announcement teaser? Well that brings my hopes up some what. I just hope that the actual teaser blows my mind.
This concept is a dream come true for me and I've always wanted to see Transformers done on screen, however, one thing that concerns me is them bringing in humanity and not focusing on the complex aspect that is Transformers.
I'd love to see a Transformers movie done in the vein of Transformers: The Movie. Where the robots provide the emotion, courage, and aren't pushed to the side for humans.
I'll wait to see the final product though. :up:

Again...point missed. So let me clarify it for you.
You mentioned that Mars doesn't have a blue sky like what's seen in the trailer. My point was that, even though Mars has a red atmosphere, it can have a blue sky under certain conditions, which you so helpfully showed that it does. Just like Earth's blue atmosphere turns red under certain conditions.
