Transformers Message from Bay

[Golgo-13]

Why does he think the studio will listen to us now? They didn't listen to us when we were in an uproar over the designs.......

Because they can build hype marketing blurbs around it:
Entertainment Tonight: "Due to extreme fan reaction, Transformers has been pushed up and will be released a day early. This is unprecedented in the history of cinema!"

Clever.

Great idea.

Mind if I spread the word on other boards?

 

[powerbomb1411]

Why wait till July 3rd? Maybe really try and go head to head with Live Free Or Die Hard......no don't do that.

But seriously. July 3rd sounds fine to me. Just make sure we have a midnight showing.

Did ET really report that?

No. I was being sarcastic. Sorry.

 

[the_trooper]

Yea the Third sounds frikin sick!

If you spread the word on the Net - they might listen.

What? You mean how you listened when fans spread the word about your choice in Prime's faceplate? Or the designs?

Oh, he listened...but he didn't hear us.

Like what Wesley Snipes said in White Men Can't Jump, "[SIZE=-1]You can listen to Jimmy, but you can't hear Jimmy."[/SIZE]

this doesnt effect the quality of the movie.. so they might actually listen.

Dark b, no offense, honestly makes me laugh.

Guys, think about all the shots we've seen thus far... we only got about twenty seconds of new Transformers (robot) material maximum.

1. Skorponok- already saw the show.
2. Bridge- already saw the shot.
3. Jet in the air- I'm pretty sure we already saw the shot of it flying.
4. Optimus transforming- just a couple of seconds max.
5. The transformer and the kid- already saw the shot.

I think the only NEW shot we got was of Meg kicking Jazz and of Optimus and Meg in the fight sequence and a couple of others... point is- it doesn't add up to much.

Anyone that has read the screenplay knows that this is NOTHING compared to what else is in the film.

No offense to Dark B., but I think he's just upset that SM3 showed almost all of their money shots in the trailers... don't get me wrong, I loved SM3. But, boy did they show everything already.

Great for us- Bay and Spielburg know alot better in this department. Save the best for theaters.

And guys, you might hate this statement- but... I'm betting you this is the maximum that we will see. TV spots will use these clips edited together. Then for interviews- you're going to see the more human and less Transformers side of things. Other than that, don't be surprised if all this footage is all that we see till July 4th. Not entire fight sequences a la Spider-Man 3 (Goblin, Crane, Sandman in subway)

i think they showed a lot of action shots. but of course tehy didnt show all of them. bay knows only action.

p.s.: dark_b is not upset about the action in spidey 3. i am upset that they had so many dance scenes.

 

[ghost_x]

I think Tempest is upset for ruining SM3 for himself. He forgets that he possesses (I assume) what is known as freewill and was not pressured nor forced to watch any of the clips/trailers of Spiderman 3.

I didn't mind the dance scenes because despite the silliness all those scenes made me laugh. The best one was seeing Pasker point at the women while thrusting his groin area.

 

[Avangarde]

Yes well I hope Prime wont be doing any of that kinda thrusting, I want this movie "camp free" if possible

 

[Spidey Lover 10]

don't worry AX, he won't.....it's not in the script anyway..........it WOULD make a GREAT youtube parody, though!

 

[ghost_x]

Transformers is allowed camp, as long as it's tasteful

 

[Spidey Lover 10]

hear hear!

 

[CFlash]

Isn't that the opposite of camp? Your quote sounds like Yogi Beara-ism.

 

[Knightsaber Priss]

Screw Michael Bay.

 

[DOG LIPS]

 

[ghost_x]

Not at all, thats the common misconception about camp, one I had to define to the many Spiderman fans who got upset by the camp scenes in SM:3. Camp refers merely to the lighthearted aspects of a movie which can sometimes necessarily shift the tone of a dark scene. All of J.Jonah Jamesons scenes so far have all been camp, has anyone ever complained about those? Nope, simply because a combination of the writing and Simmons performance managed to elevate them above being horrendous. THAT is when camp is done tastefully.

 

[Spidey Lover 10]

Screw Michael Bay.
