Well the scene I had seen was Megatron hoisted on a stone slab. He didn't seem very active. The humans said something about having had crashed on earth.

I think I saw Megatron standing in some kind of lab or factory when two guys come in and look at him. Hard to tell. Oh and don't get upset when Megatron is not a gun. What is he? A Tank? Is he Galvatraon?

They didn't say. An article I read said that there would not be any 'gun' transformers because of the impact on children. They also won't have Sound wave or any ultra huge robots that turn into 'tiny' items . They feel the size change will be to unbelievable for the audience.
Now we could debate till doomsday about how tanks and jet fighters are just as violent as a gun and we could also argue the fact that the whole concept of transforming, giant, sentient, robots are just as, if not more unbelievable then the whole size issue but thats just what I read when the movie was still in the development stage. Things may have changed.

I saw a new preview. Almost identicle to the first but this showed a tiny, stereo or boom box transform into....multiple transformers? Buzzsaw or Laserbeak maybe. Way to small to be sound wave.
Oh and I looked in a toystore this weekend as well. I was right about Megatron. He is not a gun of any type. Infact he is a.....do you want to know?

I heard Optimus Prime talk on a Burger King commercial. He sounded like Optimus Prime from the cartoons.

I got my ticket and I am going to see it July 4th at noon on the biggest screen in the OC at the Newport 6. Do you all remember when the Camelot Theater of PS was the biggest screen of the West Coast?

Well my wife and her family wanted to go to the f**king beach today. 4th of July....beach.....Uhhmmm, can someone say not going to happen. Anyway we spent two hours driving down to the beach with my inlaws to find out that....wow, there is no parking and the beaches are full. DUHHH! I tried to tell them but they never listen to me. We spend the whole day at a mall, blow 100 bucks that we really don't have and...well, what I'm trying to say is now that I'm broke I won't be seeing Transformers till next payday around the 15th.

Beach? You should have seen Transformers with us. We stayed away from the beach. We watched fireworks at the church on the hill.

It wasn't up to me. I got dragged along kicking and screaming the whole way. Actually I was even forced to drive. I was not a happy camper and I made sure every one knew it. They in turn were not happy when I turned out to be right.

Well we went to a beach in Michigan. Drove 2 hours to get to the park. Hiked (yes, I said hiked) 1/2 mi through the forest filled with biting flies, horse flies and other things that flew and annoyed. Reached the "hill" we had to traverse to reach the platue to hike another 1/4 mi to reach the beach. This hill was about 18% grade of sugar sand with our beach toys, a 3 year old, my dog, and the wife. I stubbled over a snake shading itself but was able to chase it away before anyone got hurt. Once on the beach my daughter refused to go into the water and found that there were lots of other folks on the beach but about 1/2 mi away. We make our way down the beach to find out that the "other" entrance a little further down from where we had parked and you could just walk from the car to the beach in 2 minutes. The wife was so depressed, since she was the one that planned this whole trip. But we enjoyed ourselves. She got sun burnt and my daughter and I made a sand castle. We were all wiped after all the walking, went back to the hotel and sat in the hot tub. Passed out early and woke up late. Best vacation I've had in a long time. I wont be seeing this until it's out of the theater unfortunately. The wife wants to see it too but with our conflicting schedules and the little one..., just too many pieces. But when it comes to video or to my Comcast On-Demand, I'll be watching from the old couch.

Too bad. This is definitely a theater movie. It is so good you want to see it on the biggest screen. It is intense though, maybe too intense for a 3 year old. I took my 2 year old and he did all right. He also slept through most of the movie.

I have become a little twisted with the passage of time and my wife and I took our daughter to see The Nightmare Before Christmas in IMAX 3D. My girl sat through all the trailers and even the promo from the movie itself. Then a robot came on the screen, in 3d and told you to put on your 3d glasses. She was done. Zombies, ghosts and ghouls are okay but a happy, laughing robot telling you enjoy the show freaked her out and we had to leave as she had begun screaming "I want to go home, now!"
