The official novelization thread.

[protocida]

The Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen novelization is out, and some Users have alredy read it. So, let's use this thread to discuss and question about it. :woot:

[Overman27pj]

to buy or not to buy.........!

Forget it, might as well, I'm not going to be able to resist the spoilers section here anyway.

[polm]

i wait comics

[terry78]

Yeah, Borders has the junior novel. I read through it for the most part, though I'm sure they leave out more of the risque stuff since it's made for like junior high. I would say this time, from what was written, the TF's have about 60% screen time and the humans have about 40%. The setpieces, like exploring Egypt and what not, are composed of humans and TF's interacting, talking amongst themselves and not just being CG eye-candy, so they're not like all split up at every point. Skids has somewhat of a lisp, and Mudflap talks kind of like a teenage suburban kid, lots of "whatever" and indifference.

[Overman27pj]

D'oh! Not till May 19th. You got me all revved up for nothing!

[protocida]

Terry78 said this is another thread:

I was in Borders earlier and just finished the novelization, and if it's accurate, this one addresses most of the complaints we had about the first, including the amount of TF screen time and dialogue. I will say this though...Optimus, man.... he saves the day this time around, not Sam...though his visions help in getting him to that point. Prime is a mother****ing beast in this one...takes on Starscream, Blackout AND Megs and holds them all off at once. His transformation at the end when he saves the day and beats everyone back...basically they took cues from Optimus Primal's upgrades in Beast Wars. Considering who is alive at the end, there WILL be a third, because you can't have those ****ers just hanging around like that.

Sounds good. :woot:

[LightningFlash]

I bought the junior novel...so hopefully it's a good read.

[Geekgirl]

All I have so far is the Transformers 2 prequel, which gives a little info. Like it suggests Simmons has Frenzy's head hidden away.

[protocida]

Odd. "Reing of Starscream" shows Starscream taking Frenzy's head.

[Darth Megatron]

Come on whoever has read the novel please give me some spoilers please i beg you things have been slow around here

[Hotwire]

Come on whoever has read the novel please give me some spoilers please i beg you things have been slow around here
Um, read post #7.

[Ironman50780]

Come on whoever has read the novel please give me some spoilers please i beg you things have been slow around here
I agree it has been very slow and I am interested to see who bites the dust.

[neevnav]

Odd. "Reing of Starscream" shows Starscream taking Frenzy's head.

In one of the issues of Alliance, Simmons winds up with the head.

[Avengers-Report]

I hate how Jetfire sacrifices his parts and makes Optimus by having ratchet combine them. Should have just been a normal power link with Jetfire dying of fatigue after the battle

[BrollySupersj]

Juding from what I gather from other's spoilers. The Fallen is a pushover.

I certainly hope the movie begs to differ.

[Silver Knight]

Can you tell me everything about the twins. Many thanks.

[The-HYPE]

In the beginning, the Allspark created the first 13
Transformers -- The Primes. They needed more energy, so they
created the Matrix of Leadership. This was used to power a
device that extracts energy from suns. The Primes search the
galaxy for suns, vowing not to destroy a sun if it provided
life to worlds around it.

The Primes came to Earth and saw early man and invoked the
rule. The Fallen chose to rebel as he wanted the Matrix for
himself. The Twelve hid themselves and the Matrix away in a
tomb. The Fallen in space searches for it, and only one being
can stop him -- the last remaining Prime, Optimus.

SHANGHAI.
NEST (Nonbiological Extraterrestrial Species Treaty) continues
to track down Decepticons -- a human/Autobot alliance.
Ironhide, Epps, Lennox, Sideswipe, Optimus and the Twins are
here. They're tracking Demolisher's signal, and when they're
close he transforms (as seen in the trailer). Optimus and
Ironhide take down Demolisher by knocking him on his side.

Sideswipe takes out Sideways. Demolisher dies and with his
last breath mentions The Fallen.

SAMS HOME.
TV coverage of Congressional hearings about Mission City.

They blame a robotics company, keeping the incident covered
up. Sam, Mikaela and his parents know the truth. Sam is
packing for college, when Mikaela calls. She's uneasy about
long distance dating. Sam is making a long distance
relationship kit and that's why he has his shirt from the
first movie. The shard falls out of his pocket and burns a
hole in the floor down to the kitchen. 6 or so devices
animate -- a microwave fights a cell phone and tosses the cell
inside and nukes it to kill it. They run upstairs and go
after Sam when Bumblebee charges out and destroys them and
part of the house. Cue the scene from the trailer.

Sam gives Mikaela the shard to keep safe. She puts it in a
safe at her dad's motorcycle shop. wheelie is spying and
overhears his and plans to steal it.

NEST HQ.
Optimus debriefing about Demolisher. NSA Advisor Galloway
doesn't trust Autobots. Says Decepticons are here because of
the Autobots, asks if they'll leave if the President asks.

The Autobots don't know what the Fallen is, since all their
history was contained in the Allspark. Soundwave is listening
in on the debriefing and learns of Megatron's location as a
result.

Soundwave dispatches Ravage who later breaks in with the
Doctor and steals the fragment at NEST HQ.

COLLEGE.
Sam's roommate Leo is a conspiracy nut. He totally believes
in the Transformers existence. He's always being scooped by
another online website run by someone named Robo Warrior.

Leo's website is the one on the back of the shirt in the
trailer (realeffingdeal -- or as the junior novel says the-
totally-real-deal ) Leo has hacked the database and arranged
for all the hot girls to live on their dorm floor. Cue Alice
who introduces herself.

Sam and Leo go to a party. Sam keeps seeing symbols, starts
drawing them on cupcakes at the party. Alice tries to get Sam
to dance when he hears a familiar car alarm outside. He
leaves to meet Bumblebee and Alice is in tow. She gets in,
and Bumblebee ends up slamming on the breaks, dousing her in
antifreeze, etc. Sam is embarassed. She leaves and walks
home. Bumblebee takes Sam to a cemetary where Optimus is
waiting. They warn him that the Allspark shard was stolen --

Sam is frustrated when they ask him to speak on their behalf.

He just wants to live a normal life. Optimus believes in him.
He apologizes but is firm, he doesn't know what he can do if
Optimus can't convince them.

Ravage and Doctor go to the bottom of the ocean and insert the
shard into Megatron who reboots.

COLLEGE. Rainn Wilson, the professor starts teaching. Sam opens
his book and starts speed reading, absorbing it all. He
starts freaking out in class, ranting about how Einstein was
wrong and going on about galactic convergences, etc. Sam ends
up in the library after getting kicked out of class and sees a
book on his grandfather.

SPACE.
Megatron in Cybertronian jetform leaves Earth for (presumably
Mars) He finds the Nemesis with Starscream waiting. Very
cool interactions between the two. They took fan feedback to
heart definitely. Megatron goes to speak with the Fallen, who
claims the ship as his own. Very Emperor/Vader vibe from
their interaction. Fallen says there's another way to create
the Allspark. Megatron says the Allspark was destroyed.
Fallen says 'So were you.' Fallen says the boy has absorbed
the location and dispatches them to find him. Megatron wants
the power of the Primes, which Fallen promises him. 15
Decepticons leave with Megatron and Starscream for Earth
saying Sam is already under observation.

MIKAELA'S MOTOR SHOP
She finds Wheelie sneaking around. Wheelie is a pushover and
confesss he's trying to get the knowledge hidden in the shard
because the Fallen commands it. He's smitten by Mikaela
calling her a Warrior Goddess.

SAMS COLLEGE.
Alice corners Sam alone in his room, starts putting the moves
on him. Mikaela is on the way and shows up just as Alice is
about to kiss Sam. Leo, in the lobby sees an animatronic
robot on TV that looks like Alice. It's an Alice in
Wonderland robot from Disneyworld. Mikaela walks in as a 5
foot tentacle comes out of Alice's skull and strangles Sam.
She hurls the box containing Wheelie at Alice who's head goes
360 degrees. She sheds her skin and reveals a robot
underneath. Leo shows up as well to warn Sam and they all run
from Alice. They get in a car, Alice slams onto the hood.

Leo makes a joke asking why they're so calm.. are they from
the future? Did he send them back in time to save him from
robots? (Terminator joke) They ram a telephone pole and run
over Alice. They drive off only to get picked up by a unnamed
helicopter Decepticon.

FACTORY.
Starscream slices the car in half (see trailer) Megatron says
"Remember me? I remember you." They start torturing him,
Doctor moving in with a hacksaw to get the info out of Sam's
brain. Optimus and Bumblebee crash in to save Sam, Leo and
Mikaela. Megatron knocks Prime out of the factory towards the
forest scene from the trailer. Prime asks who the Fallen is,
Megatron says you'll find out when he arrives. Prime manages
to take on all three, until Megatron spears him from behind
and takes him out. He urges Sam to go with his last breath.
Ironhide, Ratchet and the Twins show up and blast Megatron who
leaves.

They regroup. Another great interaction between Megatron and
Starscream at this point as well. They can't find Sam, who
the Autobots have hidden, so they decide to contact Soundwave.
Soundwave broadcasts a message from Megatron to everyone in
the world. Transformers are definitely out in the open now.
He tells everyone they have a solar cycle to find him or
they'll destroy city after city. Sam's parents vacationing in
France see this and freak out.

NEST HQ.
Prime being evacuted. NSA guy disbands NEST.
Sam feels guilty. Feels he should have listened to Prime. He
thinks about turning himself in. He's still drawing symbols.
The Twins recognize it as the language of the Primes. "Old
school, way far back." Leo chimes in and says he saw the
symbols on Robo Warriors website.

They contact Robo Warrior, who's revealed to be Simmons,
forcibly retired and disgruntled working his mom's deli.
Simmons says Transformers have been here for a long time.

Sams says Megatron is convinced of another energy source on
Earth. Autobots can't help since it pre-dates them. Mikaela
mentions the Decepticon they have (Wheelie) who they can get
info from.

Wheelie mentions Seekers. Old Transformers. He doesn't know
what they're looking for. Says they're not Autobot or
Decepticon. He locates 10 such Seekers on Earth, the closest
one in Washington DC.

WASHINGTON DC.
They use the shard to locate the Seeker, who turns out to be
Jetfire in a museum. He transforms. Doesn't remember where
he is and forgot what he's looking for. They offer to help
him remember if he helps them. Jetfire disappointed to hear
the war is still going on, says it's why he defected to the
Autobots. Wheelie is excited since he didn't think it was
possible. Sam mentions the Fallen, which triggers Jetfire's
memory.

Sam draws the symbols which translates into directions.

Jetfire gathers everyone and opens his own black
hole/teleportation portal. He says it's discontinued in later
models for fear of catastrophic failure. Nice way to explain
that one away writers

Jetfire teleported them to Egypt. Tells them the history of
the Fallen and the device to destroy the sun to collect the
energy. He says only a Prime can defeat the Fallen. One
orphan was hidden away though -- Optimus. Fallen tried to
find him by waging war on Cybertron. Sam asks if the Matrix
can heal Prime. Jetfire thinks so.

Sam gets a message to Lennox via his wife to bring Optimus to
the coordinates he gives. Sam passes past a security camera
and Soundwave now knows where Sam is.

Lennox once airborne gives a message to be delivered to some
Admiral for naval support. He dispatches a fleet to the
coordinates.

Sam and Mikaela talk under the stars, which helps Sam solve
the riddle of where the Matrix is located. They go to the
tomb only to find nothing. In the junior novel, Simmons and

Leo go at it and accidentally throw a rock which makes a hole
in a wall revealing Cyberglyphs. In the other novel, it's the
Twins that do this. The Matrix is behind the wall. This is
what those pics that surfaced earlier were.

Sam reaches out for the Matrix which collapses into dust once
it hits the air. He scoops it up and puts it in a sock,
determined to save Optimus' life.

Naval ships and Decepticons arrive in the area at the same
time. Soundwave has shut down communications in the area. He
gives the naval commander a false feed, so they're waiting on

Lennox to make a signal that never comes.

Sam and Mikaela run across rooftops towards Optimus' body,
dodging Starscreams attacks.

The Fallen makes his appearance and teleports to the top of
the pyramid.

Admiral realizes something is up and sends a spy plane to
survey the area.

Constructicons form Devastator. The Twins recognize him and
say his name. Megatron says he found the device for the
Fallen. Fallen asks about the Matrix which he needs to power
it.

Devastator climbs the pyramid, smashing it to reveal the
device, sucking up the debris. Simmons recognizes the device
from Jetfire's speech and tries his cellphone hoping the EMP
pulse is gone. He contacts the naval ship, telling them he'll
give them coordinates. They have a Mach 7 firing capable rail
gun on board. Admiral realizes they're being tricked and
mobilizes everyone.

Sam gets near Optimus but gets nearly blown up and is knocked
out. He meets the Primes who say they've been watching him
and give some destiny speech. For his courage in saving their
descendant, they give him the Matrix. He wakes and sees the
Matrix reform from the dust he collected. It's the Dagger
shaped picture we saw earlier.

Mikaela thinks he's dead and says she loves him. Sam wakes
and says he loves her too and rushes to plunge the Matrix into
Optimus's chest. All of his memories from the Allspark are
also transfered.

Optimus is still weak. The Fallen teleports and takes the
Matrix, teleporting back to the top of the pyramid. Jetfire
knows it's time and sacrifices himself to help Optimus. He
volunteers his parts and passes away. Ratchet facilitates the
repair and Optimus emerges anew.

Megatron, Starscream and The Fallen are at the top of the
pyramid. Simmons gets the coordinates to the ship who fires
at Devastator who breaks back into his components. Prime
flies in as the device fires. He deflects part of it which
hits Megatron and Starscream.

The Fallen asks who dares, that he is a Prime. Optimus says
he gave up that name when he murdered his brothers. Megatron
and Starscream flee as Optimus takes parts of the device and
starts smashing the Fallen head with the shards. The Fallen
opens a wormhole to escape. Optimus uses the Matrix to close
it and opens a new wormhole which he tosses the Fallen into.

The wormhole sizzles shut with a flash.

Everyone regroups. They find Sam's parents inside of
a Decepticon (the one Bumblebee fights in the desert)

I have a feeling I'm going to hate Sam's college roommate Leo. Sounds like an annoying jack ***.

Is this the part that fatass Jonah Hill was talking about having? Where he supposedly walked out of Bay's office after reading twenty pages of the screenplay?

Is this the part that fatass Jonah Hill was talking about having? Where he supposedly walked out of Bay's office after reading twenty pages of the screenplay?

Not sure but just from reading the brief description that was posted that character really sounds annoying and stupid...and most of all unnecessary.

Indeed :woot:

[Silver Knight]

Whats the deal with the Ice cream truck? Do they fight anyone as the Ice cream truck?

[DemonicFoil]

Not sure if they fight in ice cream truck mode but i think they start to appear in tokyo.

This is the dude playing Leo....latino guy.

[Figs]

edit

[protocida]

Didn't read it. :woot:

[JackLucas]

Yeah, this aspect of the story has me worried. As do the Twins being ghetto teenagers. Why the hell does Bay feel the need to pander with s**t like this?

[J.Howlett]

Because, this is what you get with Bay. Take it or leave it. And, it's one of the reasons I like him so much. He just doesn't give a damn about not doing stereotypes in his film. They're plastered everywhere and yet, every time, I have a riot with a Bay film.

[Silver Knight]

So do the twins fight anyone as their Ice cream mode robots?

[protocida]

I believe so. They're in Bathleen City, after all.

[The-HYPE]

So do the twins fight anyone as their Ice cream mode robots?

From the look of it, they might be?

[Blade X]

I thought Jazz was going to be in this movie. I recall reading a report about the voice actor of Jazz from the first movie reprising his role as Jazz for the 2nd movie. So is Jazz going to be in this movie, or not?

[protocida]

No. Jazz is dead.

[Blade X]

No. Jazz is dead.

That figures.

So is the voice actor who played Jazz in the first movie, is the voice actor for one of the newer Transformers introduced? If he is, which one is he voicing?

[protocida]

I don't know. That information is probably fake.

[Rock Sexton]

Yo.........I started reading The-Hype's post with the story, but I'm trying not to ruin this for myself. I noticed how detailed the first couple of paragraphs were. Does it pretty much give away everything?

[Ironman50780]

Does anyone know what Happens to the twins? I heard that Mudflap is sucked into Devs and Skids tries to rescue him and bangs into him and they both bite the dust.

[terry78]

^Doubt that.

[DemonicFoil]

That would be awesome. :hehe:

[protocida]

Awesomely catastrophic. :hehe:

I also think that this could be a possibility to feel death in this film due to the fact that the twins are children compared to the others and im sure many fans want the effects of a character passing to be felt due to the under-reaction from Jazz's death.

[protocida]

Because the Twins are children that I can't seem them dying. One of them, really forcing it up, I can see, but both? No way.

[Geekgirl]

Used to be against the unwritten movie laws for the kid to die, but nowadays, that idea is gone. So twins death is a possiblity.

[Silver Knight]

From the look of it, they might be?

[Geekgirl]

Transformers Blow??!


Please tell the crazy person to go back to the asylum. Transformers is going to rock!

[bestever23]

I mean really? does the plot really seem good? lol you're all the dumb people :whatever:

[Geekgirl]

Compared to some plot lines that I've seen in very popular movies, this one is great.

[DopdBrd]

Does anyone know what Happens to the twins? I heard that Mudflap is sucked into Devs and Skids tries to rescue him and bangs into him and they both bite the dust.

No, they.........

....both live. Mudflap gets sucked up into Devestator and then blasts his way out throw one of Dev's eyes. No Autobots die in the movie.

[DopdBrd]

Check your local Walmart's. Heard about it on another forum and they were right. Went to my Walmart and there it was sitting on the shelf.

Was going to buy it but already ordered it from Amazon, should have waiting could have saved me a few bucks.

[Silver Knight]

Fantastic.

[Avengers-Report]

Overall the movie seems good but some things really do bother me.

1. The Fallen is beaten to easily. Just teleports around and gets owned? Then begs Megatron for help?

2. Devastator being defeated by humans? Doesn't really do much, doesn't kill any autobots? His character seems weak.

3. Jetfire "sacrificing" himself and Ratchet combing the parts to Optimus. That is just stupid. Why not have them power link just like in the cartoons, looks cooler too. I was really looking forward to having a cool powerlink scene with flashing colors and everything. If you really wanted to you could have Jetfire die after they "decombine".

In general, I wish this movie was going to end with a Decepticon victory. The Fallen didn't have to win, but at least some Autobot deaths at the hand of Megatron. It seems just like the first, with the autubots being greatly outnumbered but somehow pulling it out of their asses.

[Batx69]

At least the matrix is in this one and the 13 are mentioned, really at this point I take what I can get.

[bestever23]

see the plot seems lame...who knows maybe they are messing with us but then again michael bay knows how to crap over a movie

[DopdBrd]

I actually think the movie is going to be great. Read the novelization, really gives you a clearer look on things.

[The-HYPE]

The other hunters are on their faces worshi[ing this new "God". After THe robot disposes of the human, he walks away with the leader of the hunters and a few other following him.

Onto a more remote area NEST is moving in, with Lennox and Epps leading. Ironhide is there as well and they are searching for Decepticon readings. As the readings are getting stronger Ironhide calls for Sideswipe, ironhide berates the twins, and the Arcee Tripletts transform into rebot modeeventually Demolishor shows himself and the Battle begins. Sideways appears and decides to run for it. The twins pursue, but the alley Sideways goes down is to narrow for them. They split and begin to argue amongst themselves. The Arcees pursue, and force sideways into a fight, The Arcees Merge into One bot and are two fast for Sideways. Sideswipe enters the fray and skewers Sideways. Back to Demolishor, He's escaping towards more a populated area. Optimus jumps from a C-17 to parchute down to where demolishor is going to be. He races towards an overpass and jumps on Demolishor as he crashed through it. Ironhide enters the battle and the two Autobots take down the large Decepticon. In his dying breath Demolishor says""This is not your planet to rule.......The Fallen----The Fallen....... Shall Rise Again!".

Chapter 2:
Mostly Funny interactions between Sam, Ron, and Judy, then Between Sam And Mikaela. Sam Finds the alspark fragment, it enters his mind, and burns his hand. He drops it and it burns through the floor of his room into the kitchen. A familiar burst brings a toaster, micowave, cappacinno machine, mixer and a Cel phone to life (the microwave kills the Cel Phone). They go after Sam. Sam runs into his dad as the little robots blast at them. Sam yell for Bee and he comes out, guns blazing and destroys the bots as well as a portion of the house. The firemen get there and Ron tells them a story as Judy is freaking out and she wants Bee away from the house. Sam find the Allspark Shard and puts in a 35mm Film canister.

Soundwave merges with a military Satalite.
Galloway talks with Moreshower, Lennox, Epps, and Optimus about the nessessity of the Autobot/human agreement.
Soundwave overhears the location of Megatron and the allspark shard(in NEST HQ), and pulls maps for the locations from the satalite.
Galloway asks optimus that if requested, would the Autobots leave, because obvliously with the alspark destroyed, the decepticons are attacking still because of the autobots. Optimus says they would leave if ask, but then asked, what if the the Humans are wrong as to the decepticon's intent.
Soundwave deploys a small pod from his body that heads towards earth.

Chapter 5:
Sam and Fmaily make it to school. He finds his dorm room, and his roomate Leo is the runner of the Conspiracy Theory Site www.therealeffingdeal.com (http://www.therealeffingdeal.com/), who is in competition with www.gianteffingrobots.com (http://www.gianteffingrobots.com/) which is ran by robowarrior. Leo as two cronies (or guys nerdier than him, as it were) setting his servers up, and he's littered the entire room with his crap. Sam's parent meet him in the room, startled by Leo's mess. Sam notices a Brownie on the box his mother is carrying, she says she bought it off a kid. Realizing the brownie had "extra sugar" in it, Sam and Ron try to stop her from eating it, but she consumes it fast and says it's her time to cheat. Leo and Sam run into alice as Ron and Judy leave the area, Alice seems strangly interested in Sam, much to Leo's dismay. Crazy antics ensue as Judy is high from the brownie. Sam and Ron finnally get her in the car.
Ravage Lands near the base holding the shard. He is able to get on top of the hangar that contains it. He spits out numerous Bearing that sprout legs, and are said to resemble Ravage. They make their way down the shaft and merge together to create a very thing humanoid figure that steals the allspark shard. It sets off alarms, the military react. It kills at least one soldier and excapes back to ravage. Ravage consumes the Mini bots back into himself, as the shard falls into the hands of the doctor, who is clinging to Ravage. Discovered by the military, Ravage runs and excapes the Island,

Chapter 6:
Sam ends up at a frat party with Leo and his "boys". During the party, Alice approaches him and in a mix of confusion gets Sam on the dance floor, in which he loses track of time and stands up Mikaela in their first webcam date. He just happenss to notice the time just when a car alarm goes off and someone complains about a yellow camero parked in the bushes. Sam goes out to bumblebee, and just gets out of getting his butt kicked by frat boys by jumping in bumblebee and taking off, but not before alice jumps in the passenger seat. Bumblebee plays some suggestive music while alice and sam are talking pertaining to cheating, then flattens and folds Alice's seat so she bangs her head, then spews antifreeze through the ac vent on her. She doesnt seem to be mad at sam, but decied to walk home.
Bumble lets an upset sam know that he has to see optimus and takes sam to meet optimus at a graveyard (unlike the scenes from the trailer, this scene takes place in the dark in the book) where Optimus tries to get sam to speak for the autobots to the goverment to make them realize that asking the autobots to leave would be wrong. Sam wants nothing to do with it because of a mixture of wanting a normal life, and lack of self confidence. Optimus realizes this and tries to sway sam, but Sam cant be swayed, and he says goodbye to his friends to return back to school.
6 decepticons decend the abyss the dead 'cons were dropped into. When they reach the bottom the doctor goes over to megatron's body and checks it out, then calls for parts. After a few seconds of silence, three of the Constructicons attack and rip appart their forth comrad to use as parts for Megatron. The Doctor finishes the job useing the shard to revive megatron. All of the robots accend through the water, to the motice of the miltary, who are attemting to respond to the blips that were showing up in the abyss.

Chapter 7:
Sam's first day of class. He reads his pompous professors 903 page book in seconds, then argues with him, going as far as writing cybertronian symbols on the chalkboardm stating that Einstien's thoeries as well as his were wrong. The professor kicks him out of class just as Sam comes out of his trance. Sam goes to the library and finds a book on his great grandfather and begins to wonder if he's going crazy like him.
Megatron makes it to a frozen planet where the Nemesis was sitting (I assume crashed from some reason). He makes contact with the Fallen, and appears to be subservient to the Fallen. The Fallen promises to make Megatron a Prime upon success of their campaign, but megatron is confused with the loss of the allspark. The Fallen explains that the allspark can never be destroyed, that it will shift itself under great diress to another form, and it did so by entering Sam's mind. Megatron must find Sam as he is the key to the decepticons winning the war. Starscream shows his face, and a decent megatron/starscream argument ensues. Megatron let's starscream live, and he initiates the opening of the 13 sarcophagi.
Sam Calls Mikaela, and while they are talking about Sam's issues mikaela catches Wheelie trying to break into her safe to steal the shard that sam gave her. She makes Wheelie yell her some info, then decided it's time to go to Sam.
Lennox and epps are set to move as the Autobots have confirmed reading of several decepticon sightings in the easter US.

Alice comes to see Sam, and runs into Leo outside their room. Leo tries to put the moves on her, but she opens the door to their room and Sam is in there writing cybertronia cymbals all over the walls. Alice kicks out leo and attempts to put the moves on Sam.
Leo is in the common room watching tv when he runs into a commercial for a disney park that has a new alice in wonderland ride, with lifelike animatronic figures. The Alice figures looks just like Alice that is in Sam's room. Back in the room, Sam is trying to stop Alice from making moves on his, but she is overpowering him and pulls him into a kiss, while liplocked a tentacle with a needle comes out of the back of her head, but Mikaela enters the room and Alice gets the tenticle back into herself before Sam or Mikaela see. An argument ensues about Sam cheating and mikaela walks away. Sam goes to follow but is stopped as a tenticle wraps around his neck, when he turns he sees it's alices tongue. Mikaela turns around as she hears Sam struggling and see's Alice attacking Sam. She throws the box containing wheelie at alices head knocking it competely around. Just them Leo shows up to tell Sam about the Animatronic Alice he saw on TV and sees the real Alice with her head backwards. Alice attacks them all, but they run from her and head to the Library. As they are trying to explain things to Leo alice mkaes it to the Library in Full metalic Robot mode blowinf stuff up. They get out of the library and get into a car that Mikaela is able to hotwire, just then alice attacks the car. Mikaela crashes the car into a pole, knockinf alice off, then runs her over and drives away, but not before retrieving the box containing wheelie. The Car is then picked up by a helicopter and dropped in a nearby foundry. The trio is confronted with starscream and Megatron

chapter 9:
Megatron sicks the doctor on sam to examine him to find if he indeed has the info from the allspark in him. Satisfied, the doctor is going to slice open sam head when he gets blown to bits and optimus comes down and attacks megatron and starscream. Bumblebee comes in and rescues Leo and Mikaela, Sam is pulled from the foundry by optimus. The battle ensues outside and optimus is doing well, as the helicopter (unnamed) transforms to attack as well. Optimus slices the helicopter's head in two. He then is doing a rather good job against Megatron and Starscream. As he is focused on starscream Megatron impales Optimus, sending him into statis lock. Bumblebee appears to try to get sam out of there. As Starscream and megatron are going to kill bumblebee other shots hit megtron from ironhide and ratchet, and megatron sees the twins, arcee, and sideswipe coming as well. And he flees with starscream. Ratchet explains that optimus is not dead but it could take a long time for optimus to self repair and leave stasis lock/

Back at teh pentagon as they are trying to figure out what happned to their AC carrier when megatron takes over every single tv and monitor across the world letting the humans know of their exsistance and the fact that they are a threat, and all he wants is for the humans to turn over Sam.

Chapter 10: (halfway there, pagewise)
The Autobots bring Optimuses body back to an airforce base(minus BB and the twins). Galloway is there and basically disbands NEST and sends the autobots with Lennox and epps back to the NEST HQ to await further orders. Lennox isn't happy, but he knows he'll get his shot at both the 'Cons and Galloway.Ironhide orders the Autobots to follow orders after Sideswipe reminds him that that is what Optimus would want.
Sam, Mikaela, and Leo regroup with BB, Skids and Mudflap in an abandoned Prison. The Boys and the twins discuss with each other the fate of Optimus, and what their next move is, with some fun banter between the twins and Leo. Mikaela helps repair an injury BB recieved. Sam beats himself up over Optimus's Fate, Mikaela and BB try to make him realize it isn't his fault. After Sam snaps out of his grief, they begin to go through the facts since misson city. Sam realizes that that is when the AllSPark transfered the info into him, explaining why he suddenly got so school smart. When he found the shard , it jumpstarted the Cybertronian part of the knowledge. Sam inscribes some of the markinga nad asks Skids, mudflap, and BB if they recognise them. They recognise them as the Language of the primes, but it is far to old, and they dont know how to read it. Leo mentions that the person who might know is his Web-arch-enemy Robowarrior.

[The-HYPE]

Chapter 11:

They drive to Manhattan and find that Robowarrior is Ex-agent Simmons, working in his mother's Deli. Some rather funny Dialog ensues, and Simmons really doesnt want them there, But when Sam says they need his Help, Simmons attitude changes to "Soooo, you need myyyyy heeeeellp?" type, and Sam talk him into helping. Simmons takes them to his Hidden HQ in the Meat Fridge. Simmons Shows the kids info he gathered from various places (including sector seven) that shows the cybertronian symbols showing up all over human history from long ago, proving this isn't the first time the transformers and the Human had to deal with each other. Sam explains what Megatron said to them regarding another source of energy on earth, something old. Simmons questions if the sutobots know anything about it, but Sam says they didn't. Simmons say that it's too bad they dont have a decepticon to ask, Mikaela says to "wait".

Mikaela goes and gets the metal box from bumblebee and opens it to reveal Wheelie. When they ask him what the symbols mean, he says it's the language of t he primes and he doesn't know, but the Seekers would, and that the seeks were here on earth. Simmons thorws down a map and Wheelie pinpoints locations of the seekers, the closest is in DC.



Chapter 12:

They get to DC and head to an airplane Museum. They hide out and wait til close. With the allspark fragment, they find an SR-71 with decepticon logos on it. They attempt to get out of there, but the plane transforms, slowly. The humans take cover, but the robot knows that theyare present and arms a weapon. Sam steps out to talk with the robot. Sam sees that the robot is rather crochoty, and he introduces himself as Jetfire. Jetfire gets lost in thought and walks away from them. Sam catches up and start to ask Jetfire questions, Jetfire seems to be lost, he can't remember where he is, then inquires to sam if the war is still going on , and lets him know that he thought the Decepitcon cause was pointless and he defected tot he autobots side. Wheelie breaks free of his containment and rushes to Jetfire and they talk in cybertronian, Wheelie jumps down and hugs mikaela's leg, stating that if jetfire can defect, so can he, and he's going to follow "Warrior Goddess". Sam tries a few more times to get jetfire focused on what he needs to ask him, and finally takes the bot outside and starts drawing the symbols. Jetfire is taken aback by them, as they are a story, regarding The Fallen. He also mentions it's part of his quest, to find the Dagger, the Kings, and the Key. He then opens a portal and sucks them all through it, warning to stay still so nothing goes wrong.



Chapter 13:

Jetfire transports all of them to Egypt.He then starts to explain to the kids the story of the symbols. That the rift that tore the transformers into two factions happened in this area. He gets interupted by the presense of a WWI BI-Plane coming at them, it tranforms into a decepticon (they never mention a name in the book, but I'm sure this is ransack), who starts yelling at jetfire for being a traitor. The Bi-plane opens fire on jetfire, but the one bullet it's able to shoot bounces harmelssly off of jetfire. Jetfire responds by stepping on the 'Con, crushing and killing it, saying "Always disliked him..". He then continues with the story, stating that the plane and him were seekers, but he couldn't put the story into words, so he shows them.The original 13 Primes, the allspark and the Machines that were created to drain power from Suns. The primes had one major directive, Life is precious. That is why they never drained our sun. The fallen disagreed with this and slayed all but one of his brothers. That brother took the matrix of leadership, which The Fallen Wanted, and sealed it with the tomb of his brothers, sacrificing himself by sealing the tomb from the inside. Earth was spared, and human's were able to evolve. now the fallen is after the Matrix, to start up the machine to drain the sun. To stop him, only a prime can stop him, and all the direct decendants of the original 13 were slaughters, save one. This orphan was unaware of his destiny. Sam Realizes Jetfire is refering to Optimus. Jetfire is glad to hear of the prime, but saddened when Sam lets him know that Optimus went into stasis lock saving Sam. Sam gets the idea that if a small shard of the allspark could bring back megatron, couldn't the matrix heal optimus? Jetfire didnt see why not, though it had never been done. They go to set off to find where the matrix is at, with the clue "when Dawn alights the Dagger's Tip,three kings will lead the way". Then Jetfire sits down and says he cant go because he would draw too much attention to them, and goes into a stasis nap.

Back at the military base, Militray offices, including morshower are disscussing why the president wouldn

t try to strike back after the deaths of 5000 on the AC carrier. Morshower explains that there is no one directly to attack, so the autobots are taking the fall. They all decide that it stinks.

Simmons figures out where "the dagger" is so they head there, trying to avaoid detection. They run into a checkpoint and Simmons trys, and fails, to talk there way past teh guards, so Bee takes off, leaving the post behind, but not before Sam is caught on Camera.

At interpol, they see the security footage and recognise Sam as the boy that was wanted, near Cairo.



Chapter 14:

While dealing with a police chase in Cairo, wheelie jumps onto the pursuing police car and starts to smach the windshield. Skids and Mudflap transform to take car eof the car, but the officer, having to deal with wheelie in his face, and now two alien robts drives off the road and the car flips. Wheelie gets back into bumblebee and nuzzles up against mikaela, she replies to the looks of the boys "what, he's cute?". The three cars continue on. Sam say they need to let Lennoz no, Simmons say not on an open channell.

Sam calls Sarah Lennox(who is with Monique Epps) from a pay phone and after he lets her know who he is, she agrees to pass on the info he gives her to her husband.

Monique epps calls the base to talk to her husband about how she's upset, since Galloway wont let personal call, they put her on speakerphone. She proceedes to get Sams message over in a VERY humerous conversation with her husband as it takes him and lennox a little bit to figure out that she is saying stuff in code. After the conversation is over, Galloway comes over, the Guys figure he figured out the message, but he didn't, give epps avice that the Wife is always right in conversation like that.

Lennox and Epps approch the C-17 Pilot, as he was with NEST, to figure out a way to drop the autobots, and lennox and epps at the location in egypt. He agrees and they figure out a story. Lennox gives him a piece of paper with a note for Morshower to "Bring the Rain" on the coodinates proviced.

Megatron lands in the area they are all being brought to. He stops to make contact with the fallen. The fallen is pleased with Meagtron and promises to make him a Prime, and provides the location of the Machine. Then the Fallen tells Magatron to Prepare for his arrival.



Chapter 15:

Starts off in a old visitors center for the Giza Pyramids. While trying to get some rest,and talking with Mikaela, Sam realizes the "Three Kings"are the stars in Orions Belt. After some fiddling with his GPS Simmons figures out the location they want to be at is in Jordan. They take off fast to get there.

Now in Petra, they enter a tomb anf begin to look around, but are finding nothing. Everyone begins to argue till the arguing send the twins into a wrestling match with each other. Mudflag punches his brother sending him into a wall, which breaks the plaster and reveals cybertronian marking behind it. Bumblebee pulls downthe rest of the plaster, once satisfied that his metal wall is the tomb of the ancients, he blasts a hole in it and the group enters.The Room they entered was actually made from the fused bodies of the 12 ancients. One of the ancients had his hand sticking out, but inside it was only black sand.While being frustrated that the matrix would dissolve into a mass of black sand, Sam puts all the sand into his Sock that he took off, and let's everyone know that he believes the even the sand will work.

Aboard the C-17, the pilot inisiates the plan, which allows Lennox to dump Galloway off the back of the Plane before they plan on jumping. Then the Humans jump down with optimus's body, as the autobots jump as well. They land in the deserted city that the coordinates led them to. They see bumblebee and the twins approaching, but then also see an F-22. Suddenly a series of EMP bursts kills all possible communications.



Chapter 16:

Bumblebee and the twins are racing for the abandoned town, when swooping above them comes Megatron and Starscream. Lennox and Epps see this, as well as 13 other figures approaching the city, all of them decepticons.

Morshower is trying to see what's going on using video from a stalite, but Soundwave is under the controll of what they are seeing, which for Morshower is just his troops searching and finding nothing. Soundwave is quite pleased with himself.

Both Con's come about and temp to shoot at the cars, but the three 'Bots are too quick for the 'Cons. They decide to split up, Simmons with the twins one way, Bumblebee another way, and Sam and Mikaela into hiding.

Simmons and Sam part ways with a general liking and trust of each other. Leo jumps in the car with simmons. The twins take off, bee goes his way, and Sam and Mikaela go into a building. As they ar eattempting to move from building to building closer to optimus, Sm stops as he hears the Cons arguing outside the building they are in. Through a small hole he is able to see starscream's legs. A bug crawls through the hole, which turns out to be a decepticon, and sam kills it. This alerts the cons to their presence, adn they rip the roof off teh building as the two humans run for it. They get up on top of the building as Screamer is trying to get to them, and blasting at them, but they start leaping from rooftop to rooftop, when suddenly they crash through a rotten roof to the floor below.

Morshower is frustrated that they cannot communicate with his team. So he has his people doulble check with the local military and sends in a UAV to check things out.

The twins skidded to a halt as they approach an open quarry with 4 constructions vehilces in it (a Giant hauler, a dump truck, a front loader and a crane), three more vehicles approach the others, as Leo and Simmons argued the Constructicons slide together to form Devestator. Simmons says "this ain't gonna go our way!"

Lennox and his troops had set up a defensive possition quite well, but Sam and Mikaela could see it. As they were running down an empty alley a large decepticon comes up behind them and with the force of his landing, knocks them down. As sam looks at teh con, it opens it's chect to reveal a compartment carrying Sam's Parents, and deposits them on the ground. The Con threatens Sam to hand over what he has or his parents Die. Ron tells his son to run. BB is closing in on Sam's position, but from his body language could tell that there a problem in a position that Bee couldn't see, so he motions to Sam to Distract it. Sam pleads with the Con, offering whatever it wants, just as Bee slams into it. While the 'Con is bigger and stronger, Bee is faster and smarter. bee rips off one of it's arms, then Sam, after he clears his parents, tell Bee to finish the job. Bee does some flipping around the con, and holding it's other arm from behind, kicks it to send it fly into a heap, leaving behind both of it's arms. Sam sends his parents to Satefy with Bee, Mikaela and him prepare to move on.





Chapter 17:

Simmons, Leo, Skids and Mudflap were faced up against devastator. They turned to run and hide as Devy started to suck up everything around it. Mudflap and the two humans found spots that Devy wasn't getting them, but Skids wasn't so fortunate. Skids got sucked into Devy's open mouth. Devy closed it to finish his catch. He then stopped and was reacting to something when all of a sudden Skids blacted out of Devy's head through his right eye. In an attempt to stop the Monstrousity from kill all of them, they moved to underneath him, since he was large and slow, this worked. After some time Devistator finnally ignored them and went in the opposite direction.

A pogosticking 'Con is bouncing around destroying everything in sight.

Simmons and Leo stay underneath Devy's legs as he moves towards the Pyramid. Suddenly a vortex swirls and the Fallen appears. Simmons looks at the fallen and megatron and feels that megatron looks ordinary againt the fallen.

Megatron informs the fallen that his machine is there adn that the boy is within reach. The battle isn't going well for the good guys. ironhide and Sideswipe are taking hits. Humans are dying left and right. The Fallen appears to have a telekinetic like ability as he manipulates nuemerous things around him without ever touching them.

Sam and Mikaela finnaly get to Lennox.

Devy Climbs the pyramid, whch gives Simmons and Leo time to escape. Devy starts to tear apart the top of the pyramid, revealing the top of the Great Machine.

Simmons calls the Captain on the roosevelt, a ship waiting for orders in nearby waters, to fire an experimentle Rail Gun at the location Simmons is going to call back with.

The UAV finnaly reaches the seen and shows what's realy going on. The military scramble to get help into the fray. Various military vehicles show up for addition force for NEST. Two 'Cons bear down on Sam and Mikaela, but the newly arrived tanks fire upon them, distracting them, Lennox and Epps get to the kids. Lennox get them ready to run, Sam wants to get to optimus, but lennox says later because the rain is comming .Suddenly a Con appears in front of them, ready to strike the death blow, but out of the sky comes jetfire and blows the 'Con in two, just as quick Skorponok comes out of the sand and pierces Jetfire in the chest. Jetfire Pops off his head and then disposes of the rest of Skorponoks Carcass. Jetfire is wounded badly, but moves on. They run, but Sam changes course and runs for Optimus's body. A bomb from the sky sends Sam flying, but he's ok, gets up and starts running again.

Suddenly the Figure of Megatron as a tank blast at Sam, sending him face first into the sand, but he draws too much attention to himself and pulls away before he can blast Sam again. Mikaela makes it to Sam but he's not moving. Lennox gets to Sam and checks him and call for a Medic. They try to bring him back, but they can't. Mikaela cries over his body, telling him to come back, she loves him. Bumblebee appears with the Sock, and lets the remainder of the black sand to fall on Sam...........

Sam see's white, the nhe is spoken to by the Primes. THey let him know he had proven himself worthy of the matrix of leadership by showing courage and scarafice. They tell him that the Matrix is his. He suddenly wakes up in Mikaela's arms as she is begging for him to come back to her. SHe says "I love you" again, and he is fiannly able to say it to her. Suddenly the black sand by Sam's right hand begins to pull itself together and it forms the Matrix. Sam grabs it and runs to Optimus and plunges the matrix into his body. Optimus is revived but weak. The Fallen Arrives and brushes aside Ironhide and Ratchet. Then knocks down optimus and takes the Matrix from Sam. The fallen teleports to the pyramid to start the machine. Jetfire appears and let's Optimus know he has more power than he thinks and sacrifices the last of his spark so optimus can take his parts and fly. Ratchet works quickly on optimus and he takes off toward the pyramid as the beam of energy is turned on, racing to touch the sun and steal it's power. Simmons crawls up Between Devy's legs and calls t he Roosvelt to fire the shot, and not miss low. The shot hits devy in the chest with such force that it tears him apart, while Simmons fled. Optimus Tears though a spire on the machine, stopping the energy from reaching the sun. The power released from that was enough to damage and melt some parts of 'Cons around the area, including Screamer and Megs. Optimus Faces the Fallen. After the Fallen question prime with a "you DARE challenge ME, Im a Prime", Optimus defies him with "You abandoned that name when you slaughtered your brother. Only one prime now, and my ansestry will be avenged. Optimus Pounds the fallen. Megatron questions the fallen, "you promised to make me a prime" and optimus replies "Primes are born, not made megatron, you were betrayed." The fallen cries for Megs help, but megs ignors him. The Fallrn opens a port to escape, but prime pulls him back to finish him off. Megs and Screamer escape through the portal. Prime Rips the Spire point off the machine and, using his jets, Rams the point into the skull of the fallen. The fallen's shell tumbles to the ground. Optimus Retrieves the Matrix from the machine, and looks up to assess the situation of the aftermath. Mudflap comes over carrying Simmons and Skids is pulling a part of devy with a smiling Leo on it.

Back on the Roosvelt Ratchet is going around taking care of autobot wounds. Sam and Optimus are on the deck talking to one another. Sam says that the Symbols in his head are gone, Optimus lets him know they are in the matrix. Sam comments to optimus that the Primes had told him that he didnt know the truth about his future, and wondered if optimus did.Quoting the last paragrah of the Chapter:"Optimus Considered. "I know one thing. Whatever it may hold, it is a future we'll meet together. Our Planets, our races, united by a history long forgotten, yet to be discovered." Tilting back his head, he peered up at the sky and through it, to the stars beyond."



Credits end

[Geekgirl]

Okay, I'm just going to swing by Wal-mart and pickup the novelization. I like reading, so I will buy it to satisfy my Transformer cravings until June.

[Geekgirl]

Going to swing by Wal-mart myself. Hope it's there, though knowing my town it will show up in two months... Wal-mart book selection stinks.

[Rocker22]

Nice.

[King K]

Awesome. Thanks for the heads up. Gotta get ready for the midnight IMAX showing. GIANT $%$%%^% ROBOTS!!!!!!!!!!

[protocida]

Spoiler tags?

[protocida]

:woot:

[Ironman50780]

How are jolt and sideswipe in the movie. and why havent we seen much of Ratchet or Ironhide in the film?

[gohei_]

How are jolt and sideswipe in the movie. and why havent we seen much of Ratchet or Ironhide in the film?

Patience, little one. You will find out soon enough :hehe:

[bluejake01]

Spoiler tags?


Really? You couldn't have made the determination on your own that there would be spoilers in the spoiler section of the site, under a thread dedicated to the novelization of the movie?

[brook_33]

What happens with Arcee, Sideswipe, Jolt? Does Soundwave ever come down and fight? Does Starscream get killed by Megatron. Does Barricade return. Is there any explaination with Scorponok or does he just show up? What about the soldier named Graham? Does Sec. Keller return? Why's Blackout resurrected and not Bonecrusher, Brawl, or Frenzy?

[Geekgirl]

In order: Not much, no, no, no, not really, who cares, don't remember so I'll reread it, as far as I can tell none other than Megatron returns.

Helpful?

[terry78]

Bring on Unicron, Bay.

[protocida]

Yes, we're in the Spoiler Section, but being the use of Spoiler tags so easy, I don't see why it's so hard to hide that resumée for those unwarned.

[protocida]

Does Barricade return?
Yes.

Does Sec. Keller return?
No.

Why's Blackout resurrected and not Bonecrusher, Brawl, or Frenzy?
Blackout is the third in command of the Decepticons. Bonecrusher, Brawl and Frenzy are only soldiers.

[The-HYPE]

Yes.


No.


Blackout is the third in command of the Decepticons. Bonecrusher, Brawl and Frenzy are only soldiers.

Megatron: Decepticon Leader
Soundwave: 2nd in command
Starscream: He thinks he's 2nd in command but really soundwave is.
Blackout: 3rd guy in charge

[protocida]

^Yep.

[Geekgirl]

I have the novelization and I have read it. We are in for such an awesome movie if even half this stuff occurs.

[protocida]

Nice! :up:

[dark_knight08]

Thanks The-HYPE for posting the summary of the novelization of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
:trans:

[The-HYPE]

The concussion that shook the earth knocked nearly all the humans and several of the Autobots off their feet as well as sending Optimus back to the ground. Supremely confident, an enormous figure now toweredem all. THE FALL HAD ARRIVED. As soon as they had recovered their balance, Ironhide and Sideswipe charged, firing all weapons. Raising a hand, hardly appearing to exert an effort, The Fallen swept them backward. When Optimus tried to rise, a second wave of the enormous hand knocked him down. It was as if The Fallen was figihting an infant. They turned. And bent toward Sam. The voice of The Fallen was even, perfectly controlled-and utterly, utterly malevolent.



"Now, at last, I claimed the energy of your sun."



A finger reached out and the dagger shape was torn from Sam's gHe could no more have held on to it than he could have restrainged a fleeing elephant. In a swirl of energy, The Fallen vanished. Squinting into the distance, the stunned and dazed onlookers saw him reappear kilometers away on the summit of the nearby pyramid. Sam's tone was agonized, and not from the pain that wracked his battered and brused body.



"Somebody-somebody stop him! He's gonna turn on the Machine!"



Raising a hand, Optimus implored his companions. "Autobots-stop him."

[The Navigator]

I still want to know about that showest scene where megs rips off ss' arm. No insecticons in the novel, either.

[protocida]

Transformers Script is in constant development. They probably added Megatron VS. Starscream, the Insections and many other things along the way.

I don't doubt it.

Yeah like Megatron supposedly flying to the Nemises after he's repaired in to a tank.:huh:

[BrollySupersj]

Yeah like Megatron supposedly flying to the Nemises after he's repaired in to a tank.:huh:
Oh don't worry, they explain it well.

[The-HYPE]

Oh don't worry, they explain it well.

Megatron is a Tri-Changer in this movie meaning that he has his first alternate mode from TF1 and also the new tank alternate form. We probably won't see him in his tank form until the final battle in egypt.

[The Navigator]

So is Arcee a combiner?

[Geekgirl]

Apparently. Not sure how that will work out, but we'll see.

[LightningFlash]

wow If this is how Its going down

STAR TREK is going to be the best summer movie

I mean come on all it sounds like is dumb characters and silly action

and we already saw Wolverine :hehe:

Transformers is going blow

First....

for someone who wants to use "dumb" in a sentence, make sure that you don't sound dumb yourself.

Write complete sentences, and don't forget certain words, like "to"...

Second...

:o

Third...

go watch Pi.

[LightningFlash]

What does Barricade do?

[The-HYPE]

What does Barricade do?

It doesn't seem like Barricade did much, I mean the novel doesn't identify alot of the Decepticons.

[Geekgirl]

I don't even remember him being mentioned by name, but he might have been there.

[The-HYPE]

I don't even remember him being mentioned by name, but he might have been there.

Yeah alot of the Decepticons were only refer to as Decepticons.

[Silver Knight]

I dont want to read the whole thing so can someone please give me a rundown on the Twins.

[The-HYPE]

I dont want to read the whole thing so can someone please give me a rundown on the Twins.

The Twins decided to upgrade after being blown by the speed of Sideways. They were too slow and unable to keep up with Sideways, after losing sight of Sideways they transformed and started arguing, which later they upgraded to seperate vehicles.

During the climax battle, Skid and Mudflap help Simmons and company (navy) fight off Devastator. Mudlap got swallow by Devastator but was able to blow his way out of Devastator's right eye. THEY DID NOT DIE!

[Geekgirl]

And one talked weird. That's about it.

[LightningFlash]

It doesn't seem like Barricade did much, I mean the novel doesn't identify alot of the Decepticons.

Hrm...

well supposedly Barricade attacks Sam's college(the library)...

do you think that was added to the script after Foster wrote the book?

And one talked weird. That's about it.

Well one speaks weird and the other talks like a "homie" supposedly.

Or that's what Bay said once.

[Avangarde]

Is there any mention of Springer or any other Autobots that are not on the known list?

[DemonicFoil]

So Megatron is a triple changer? not quite sure if that would work but he's a transformer after all.

[The-HYPE]

So Megatron is a triple changer? not quite sure if that would work but he's a transformer after all.


From reading the novel he was a cybertronian jet and then later in Egypt we see him transform into the Tank mode.

[The Navigator]

Is there any mention of Springer or any other Autobots that are not on the known list?

No, but the book also doesn't mention the insecticons, barricade, or jolt, so...(also doesn't say whether that's blackout in the woods, he's referred to as a chopper bot)

[The Caped Knight]

So Megatron is a triple changer? not quite sure if that would work but he's a transformer after all.

This isn't the first time Megatron's been a triple Changer Transformer . He's been this many times in The Transformers mythology

I'm guess that the movie version is based off of this Megatron

[Geekgirl]

You're right. No mention of an insecticon really, and I know what I saw on the previews/trailers was an insection.

[protocida]

^Correct.

As I said, there will be a plenty of surprises for *Everybody*.

[LightningFlash]

Isn't it the Insecticon when Sam peaks through the whole to see Starscream's legs, and a tiny Decepticon pops through it?

That is written in the novel. Just because it doesn't say the name, I think we're(the readers) are meant to decipher who's who.

Just like with the first novelization. Foster wrote it by looking over the script, in which many of the names were not said, or totally wrong because the right names for most of the Decepticons were named during editing and what not.

[protocida]

We see a lot of Insections in one of the TV spots.

[LightningFlash]

So now you're asking for spoiler tags on the novelization thread?

Wow....

haha, why even create the topic if you don't want spoilers?

[protocida]

Forget it, OK. :dry:

[The-HYPE]

So now you're asking for spoiler tags on the novelization thread?

Wow....

That's what I have been saying, people come to the "spoiler" forum to uncover information about the movie.

I keep getting bash by these guys for not using spoiler tags, I mean it make sense if I was in the other forum that was not for spoilers!!!

[protocida]

People come to the "spoiler" forum because it's the only place where they can discuss the movie.

[The-HYPE]

People come to the "spoiler" forum because it's the only place where they can discuss the movie.

That's not true, there is the other forum that is mark "non- spoliers." You can go there and chat about the movie, you enter this forum being fully aware that there are spoilers.

[protocida]

No, I can't, because there's no one in that Forum.

Listen, I don't want to start a riot. I really don't. I even erased my post. All I'm asking is you and other users to use Spoiler tags someties, as you are now doing. That's all.

Let's finish this discussion here, OK?

[The-HYPE]

We'll then if you want to join the big boys in this forum you are going to have to stop complainning and maybe some of us may start listening.

[protocida]

I'm trying to end this discussion.

Don't tease me.

[The-HYPE]

FYI: It's a never ending discussion as there are many people who agree with me.

Anyways onto Transformers 2, everyone remember to stay until all the credits are done!

[protocida]

^And with me.

OK.

[Silver Knight]

Thanks. So they dont fight anyone in their ICM?

[The-HYPE]

In the novel they tried to fight Sideways but he was too fast for them.

[The Navigator]

FYI: It's a never ending discussion as there are many people who agree with me.

I wonder if that scene is changed, since we see protoforms fighting in the trailer. I hope so, it was kind of a nothing scene.

[The-HYPE]

From reading the novel, the ending gives me the impression that these protoforms are kind of like the ones in Beast Wars where you can reprogram them into either Autobots or Decepticons. I hope they don't go this route.

[Mr. Para-Normal]

How did you guys find the novel early? I looked in my local borders and they don't have it yet.

[JackLucas]

How did you guys find the novel early? I looked in my local borders and they don't have it yet.

The novel's release date was May 19th. Dunno about your Borders, but every bookstore should have it. Just yesterday I saw about fifteen copies at WalMart.

[skorponok]

How did you guys find the novel early? I looked in my local borders and they don't have it yet.

Borders is closing so they may not get new product...

[Nivek]

No, thats the general non-spoiler forums are for. You don't want be spoiled, don't go into a section labeled Spoilers. This isn't Nanotechnology 101.

Why does this constantly have to be repeated in spoiler section around the hype?

i ask myself that question too, we have so many people whinning about spoilers that I've revealed and didn't put spoiler tags...hello don't go into the spoiler forum then!

[Mr. Para-Normal]

O I did'nt know that borders was closing down! Well I checked borders yesterday and they had it in as well as walmart. So Far I am liking it and can't wait for the movie!

[Geekgirl]

Good book, hopefully good movie.

Yes, it is. Good fights, good action, and Mikaela attacking Decepticons.
