Transformers First Transformers Set Pictures

LOL - funny stuff!

I can definately live with Megatron being a tank. In fact, I think it's poetic... as tanks are the ultimate "symbol" of the military (think of that picture of the student protester in Tiannemen Square).

But last we heard, he was "Cybertonian" Jet.... in the movie he doesn't adapt to any Earth vehicle. If that's the case, I think it's a big missed opportunity. I don't see any artistic merit in that decision (other than to make another stupid Independence Day sort of movie).

Michael Bay had nothing to do with Heat.

Yep my mistake. And my apologies.

Is this a joke?

 

[spideymusprime]

Wasn't it confirmed that Optimus is going to be a truck? Are those really pics from the set. I doubt that's gonna be Soundwave. LOL

 

[xwolverine2]

Wtf!? @ Boombox

 

[DorkyFresh]

i was hoping no one was gullible enough to believe that, haha

 

[Octoberist]

I'm telling ya, make Soundwave into a helicopter (why not) or a giant sonar/radar thing..

I think an Air Force AWACS (radar surveillance/ communications plane) is the only thing that's super faithful to his character and purpose. But, I dunno.

Hmmm...
Well, I thought Bumblebee being a Camaro was a joke.
At this point, anything is possible.

 

[zer00]

suuuuure

 

[J.Howlett]

Okay, what's the deal about Megatron being an alien jet? Why doesn't the original design (aka The Gun) work for this film?

 

[skorponok]

i was hoping no one was gullible enough to believe that, haha

Espescially with the giant boombox...

 

[antariksh]

ya **** This Movie **** It

If They Cannot Stay True To The Cartoons Then Damn This Movie To Hell.

And Everyone Involved In It.

I am a Transformer fan. I had all the toys(thanks to a friend of my mom who worked at Hasbro..we even tested some of the toys for them). I went to see Transformsers the movie in the thearter. I had tears in my eyes when Optimus died. I think you are asking a lot of a movie if you are forcing it to be a literal translation. Should they not make this movie since Voltswagon doesnt want to let them use a VW bug?????? "it's not faithful to the cartoon?"
Which cartoon should it be faithful to????? G1???? Beast Wars???? Armada???? I have high hopes for this movie and the only thing that will mess with that is the trailer. Rumors and supposed reports dont mean squat to me.

 

[terry78]

Honestly, anyone who thinks making Megatron a gun for this movie is being quite delusional nostalgic for their own good. That alt mode is the least practical, and don't even get me started on functionality.

 

[ComicKoryn]

Even when I was little and I watched G1 cartoons, I thought that Megatron turning into a gun was a stretch.

 

[WormyT]

Yes, those pics above ARE a joke. Not real.

Thank god.

 

[WormyT]

how could anyone not think that was a joke

Well, I can only speak for myself, but I was very drunk when I saw these picks lastnight .
It would be GREAT to see Astrotrain in the movie.
Is optimous a firetruck can anyone confirm?

Apparently that has been debunked
