What You Didn’t Notice in the New Transformers 2 Trailer

Watch TV on PC - 12,000 TV Channels and Movies

Things go by so fast in the new Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen movie trailer, that you’re likely to miss some things. Here are a couple cool things we noticed while going frame by frame. For instance,did you see the motorcycle-transforming Transformers? How about The Fallen? Or Jetfire? And what was that bug thing? All this and more after the jump.

Remember the scene where a Decepticon burst through a building and down an alley with Autobots in pursuit? Did you notice that the Autobots were actually Transformers with Motorcycle alt modes?

acree

That’s right, Arcee. Here is a concept drawing of the Transformers that was created but never used for the first film. Looks like they finally figured out how to bring Arcee to life on the big screen.

Or how about the red O&K/Terex RH400 Hydraulic Mining Excavator that transforms into the Decepticon known as either Scavenger or Demolisher.

This is just one of the six Constructicons that combine together to form the massive Devastator. You see him in a later clip destroying helicopters at the Asian power plant (this is the film’s opening sequence).

And that’s also him, destroying some Asian highway before Optimus shows up and jumps on the Constructicons neck.

And what exactly is that fly-sized Decepticon bug that Sam pulls apart? Is it an Inseticon?

And in the desert sequence, that is Scorponok…

…who is attacking Jetfire.

And last but not least, we get to see the main villain. The title character from the film - The Fallen appear in the desert out of thin air after a collection of lightning hits the ground.

Transformers 2 Teaser Trailer: Now In Higher Quality!

Watch TV on PC - 12,000 TV Channels and Movies The first version of this Transformers 2 trailer had the illegally-shot-in-a-movie-theater quality, but now we have the official Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen teaser trailer in all its Decepticon-loving glory.

We also have Sunshine Cleaners for $15. That's a good deal. You'd pay the same in the movie theater but this way you can do it from the comfort of your own home and miss the pivotal scene when the cameraman runs to the can. It's no big deal. Alan Arkin kills a dude and the crew has to cover it up. Simple.

Transformers 2 Trailer Now Online

Watch TV on PC - 12,000 TV Channels and Movies The Fallen is about to take his revenge

Transformers 2 Trailer Now Online

The first teaser trailer for Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen – which had previously only been available to US cinemagoers over the weekend who, in the ultimate good news/bad news joke, had to pay to see Friday The 13th to access it – is now online. And when Michael Bay said that this one was bigger than the original, he wasn’t kidding – this thing looks massive.

Watch the new Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen teaser trailer.

After all, it starts with a series of meteors – presumably bearing the Decepticons, including Soundwave, the cat-like Ravage and the Constructicons – falling to earth, just as Optimus Prime and his pals did in the original film. But this time, their arrival seems a little more focused, as they smash into a fleet of US aircraft carriers. The war has begun?

The trailer is a teaser – the movie’s not out until June – so there’s no real story details to get our teeth into (and anyone who says that there might not be any story detail to get our teeth into… stow that attitude!). Instead, we get a series of jaw-dropping images as the Decepticons wreak havoc on Earth. Buildings, including the Pyramids, will get trashed. The Constructicons will form Devastator, a robot so large that it makes Optimus Prime look like Jimmy Krankie. But there's still no sign of The Fallen himself, a robot so evil it will make Megatron look like... well, Ian Krankie.

And, as all sequels seem to be contractually obligated to be, Revenge Of The Fallen appears to be darker, with the stakes seemingly raised for Shia LaBeouf’s Sam Witwicky, his dad (Kevin Dunn), Megan Fox’s Mikaela, and of course Optimus Prime, who gets seven shades of shit knocked out of him at one point.

But enough of our blathering – see for yourself. Of course, fans of the original will love it. Bay-haters won’t find anything to change their minds here. But, based on the visuals and the promise of mindboggling Bayhem, we have to say that this looks like summer’s biggest movie, hands down.

Transformers 2 trailer goes online…

Watch TV on PC - 12,000 TV Channels and Movies

Here is a link to a nicer version.

The money shots are almost identical to the Super Bowl spot, so there isn’t much new to add. The trailer is almost entirely composed of said money shots, without a trace of narrative or storyline (I didn’t notice any music and there are only two brief dialogue scenes). It certainly looks scarier, darker, and much more intense than the campy original (allegedly what Michael Bay is aiming for). This also seems to be more of a ‘how would the world react if this really happened’ movie, which will automatically be superior to the contained and introverted original story. I kind of like the idea of a horror film involving murderous giant robots. Anyway, even if I hate the movie as much as I hated the original, it’ll still likely be worth taking in one viewing in IMAX for the sheer scale of this thing.

"Transformers 2": The Movie That Should Be Awesome

Watch TV on PC - 12,000 TV Channels and Movies

If you haven't seen the trailer for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen yet then you have missed an amazing thing. The movie trailer is packed with some great shots and leaves you wanting more: explosions, giant robots and Megan Fox—so why shouldn't it be good? We shall soon see, but in the meantime, here is an official trailer for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.

As you can see, if they're blowing up an aircraft carrier then it has to be awesome. We can all only hope and wait to see where they decide to go with this movie. At least we get to see Megan Fox running.... Ahhh, isn't that just worth the $8.00?

Percy Carey: Watchmen vs. Transformers 2

Watch TV on PC - 12,000 TV Channels and Movies

percy_transformersvwatchmen.jpg
[Each Wednesday, Complex columnist Percy Carey a.k.a. MF Grimm dives into the world of comic books with industry interviews, reviews and more.]

Who will be crowned 2009’s #1 movie?

The Watchmen has been in the public spotlight for so long due to disagreements and legal battles that it should be renamed Kramer Vs. Kramer 2. The most important question is, Will it satisfy the devoted fans of the graphic novel created by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons? It had better, because loyal fans of the Watchmen are really crazy! (It’s true) Watchmen fans are even crazier than hip-hop fans in violence (such as when a rap show is wack, or the Source Awards). The only thing more violent is an unsatisfied Star Wars nerd (They will kill you), so if the Watchmen movie sucks, the loyal Army of Alan Moore will rip every last theater to shreds and there won’t be a place on earth where director Zack Snyder will be able to hide (not even Doctor Manhattan will be able to save your ass, Zack)…

One element Watchmen has over Transformers 2 so far is a killer theme song, and seeing as the soundtrack for Transformers 2 is in the hands of that #2 agency (I can’t remember the name of it), they’ll probably fuck it up (I hope not). Look, you guys know the story about the graphic novel. The Watchmen, right? If not, then go buy the book—I’m not going to sit here and type it out for you (go to your local comic book store or Barnes & Noble and stop being such a cheap ass…it’s a great read).

I think it’s bold to make a 160 minute film (but I’m also a guy who created an 60 song triple CD, so who am I to talk huh?). And I’m not sure how true this is, but I was informed that Alan Moore refused to allow his his name to be used in connection with the Watchmen movie, and has given his share of his the money made from the film to his graphic novel partner Dave Gibbons (if this is true then Alan Moore is either : (a) The best friend in the whole wide world. (b) Out of his motherfucking mind, or (c) both choices of a and b combined. To play it safe, I’m going to go with choice (c). Anyway, how do you guys think it will match against Transformers 2: The Revenge of The Fallen?

I was just informed that Transformers 2, instead of being released on Friday June 26, 2009, it will be released on Wednesday June 24, 2009 (two day head start). I love the original Transformers animated series and animated movie, so I was very biased going in to see the live action movie. But I was amazed and pleased looking at Megan Fox (excuse me, I meant the special effects), but I must say Shia LeBeouf held his own as Sam Witwicky and since then he’s become one of my favorite actors and a good friend of mine (Shia’s father and I are going to create a rap album together. And yes, he can really flow). The bottom line is that Transformers 1 was a great movie (I don’t have time to sit here and and type it out go to Netflix or Blockbuster and rent it, stop being such a cheap ass). Transformer 2 seems on point, but when the meteors land near the pyramids, I wonder if you were thinking what I was thinking? I’m happy to hear Jetfire is in Transformers 2, but will he be enough to stop the Fallen? We’re about to find out how sweet revenge really is. How do you guys think it will do against The Watchmen? Holla atcha boy

Marvel extends royalty deal with Hasbro

Watch TV on PC - 12,000 TV Channels and Movies

(Reuters) - Media company Marvel Entertainment Inc said Hasbro Inc will retain toy-licensing rights for its characters until 2017 in an deal that guarantees Marvel $100 million in royalties and gives it the potential to earn up to an additional $140 million.

The deal will allow Hasbro, the No. 2 U.S. toymaker, to continue to make toys and games based on new Marvel and Sony Corp-owned Columbia Pictures theatrical releases, as well as Marvel's portfolio of superhero characters, which includes Spider-Man, Iron Man and X-Men.

Marvel has licensed theatrical rights of Spider-Man, its most popular character, to Sony.

The additional $140 million in royalty guarantees is contingent upon the release during the extension period of Marvel character-based films that satisfy certain criteria.

Marvel's current agreement with Hasbro runs through 2011.

This year, Hasbro plans to launch products based on the May release of "X-Men Origins: Wolverine," a movie from News Corp's 20th Century Fox that is based on Marvel characters.

In 2009, it will also sell toys based on the "G.I. Joe - The Rise of the Cobra" and "Transformers - Revenge of the Fallen" movies.

The agreement will be a plus for Hasbro, which has an edge over larger rival Mattel Inc in the market for movie-related toys.

While Marvel has no self-produced films scheduled for 2009, it has two films, including a sequel to its successful "Iron Man," slated for 2010.

Marvel shares closed at $25.31 Friday on the New York Stock Exchange. Hasbro closed at $23.80.

Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen

Watch TV on PC - 12,000 TV Channels and Movies The robots in disguise return for a second dose of mechanical carnage this summer in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Set for release on the day marking the 25th anniversary of Transformers, director Michael Bay and executive producer Steven Spielberg team up again following the massive global success of Transformers in 2007. They reignited interest in the much-loved franchise once confined to 2-D animation by pumping $150 million into a live action spectacular featuring eye-popping CGI. A box office haul of more than $700 million worldwide later means the robots in disguise will be back in June in an even more action packed cinematic event.

Bay has attempted to be tight-lipped over plot details for Transfomers: Revenge of the Fallen, but details are slowly coming out with the release of the first trailers and a comic book series in the States. “The Fallen” of the title refers to both Megatron being taken out of action in the first movie as well as a new Decepticon character called The Fallen featured in the initial trailers battling with Optimus Prime. Megatron is said to make a re-appearance after being awakened by Scorponok’s spark, most likely transforming into a tank in reference to his upgraded Galvatron form most famously seen in the 1986 animated movie. These two main villains will be joined by Starscream who returns to Cybertron to assume command of the Decepticons and lead a force to capture Sam Witwicky (LaBeouf) who has learnt secrets of the origins of the Transformers on Earth. Huge battles and use of the Egyptian pyramids suggests there will be an air of mystery in this sequel.

Action is promised from the start, unlike the slow burning first hour of Transformers, giving helmer Bay the chance to let his flamboyant direction run wild. The a Cloverfield-esque trailers show scenes of destruction as the Decepticons attack Earth while the humans shout a lot and look bewildered by all the robotic mayhem going on around them. The cast of Transformers returns, including Shia Labeouf, Megan Fox and Matthew Marsden, however there are numerous Transformers making a debut appearance in this live action version building on the select few seen in 2007. One fan favourite given a big screen makeover is Soundwave, here re-imagined as a satellite rather than his traditional tape recorder. The Constructicons will also be making an appearance as seven robots join to form a giant robot, although original Constructicons Bonecrusher and Devastator who featured in the first movie will not be part of the group. Jazz will also return in a new form along with others including Bumblebee, Ironhide, Sideswipe, Scorponok, Barricade and Sideways to make up about 40 transformers in the whole movie.

Fans of the original cartoon will be relived to hear that the original score will be introduced after being left out in 2007 to many complaints from the audience and many scenes have been shot in IMAX format to provide maximum impact from the explosive action scenes. A lot is riding on Revenge of the Fallen as it is expected the Autobots will be pushed into a dire situation ahead of an expected third movie to complete a trilogy and perhaps feature Unicron. An exciting prospect which Bay seems intent to oversee himself – he decided against making a movie before this one in case someone else took over - and, by the look of the trailers so far, he is set on delivering effects-laden epics.

New 'Transformers 2' Trailer Hits the Internet and Theaters to a Lot of Buzz

With a New Movie Trailer, 'Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen' Creates Even More Excitement for Fans



Transformers 2 just released its first full length trailer to the internet and theaters, and it is creating a lot of buzz for the movie. Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is the follow-up to the Transformers movie from 2007 that re-introduced the changeable robots to a new generation
New 'Transformers 2' Trailer Hits the Internet and Theaters to a Lot of Buzz
of fans. With a lot of action, and a film that was very well suited to sell more toys, Transformers brought in a ton of money, and proved to be quite a success for Michael Bay and Executive Producer Steven Spielberg. Now Part 2 is about to take theaters by storm this summer.

The Super Bowl was the first real glimpse of the new film, where the creators gave a 30-second look into many of the action sequences that will take place in the film. It also revealed quite a few new Transformers that will make their way into the new movie, and probably re-write a lot of the ways that the characters were looked upon back in the cartoon. It looks to be a much more violent film than the first one, and it also seems that they are going for an almost "scary" element rather than a slap-stick version of violent robot fighting. This could entice a new group of film-goers, but at the same time may scare a few away as well.

The newest trailer for Transformers 2 is a 2 minute 17 second look at the film, which doesn't exactly present a whole lot of new material that will blow away fans, but pieces together the quick snippets that had been used for the 30-second Super Bowl advertisement. It gives a few more looks at new bad-guys (Decepticons), but very few insights into what this movie is actually about, or where they plan on taking the storylines. The trailer for the Transformers 2 film is located at the bottom of this article if you are interested in taking a look for yourself. Watch TV on PC - 12,000 TV Channels and Movies

‘Watchmen’ & ‘Wolverine’ Spoilers, ‘Iron Man 2’ & ‘Scott Pilgrim’ Casting News: It’s The Back-Issue Bin!

Watch TV on PC - 12,000 TV Channels and Movies

'Watchmen'There’s a “Watchmen“-savvy grand finale this week, as Saturday’s special episode of “Spoilers” (airing on MTV at 8 PM EST) will debut new footage, interviews and behind-the-scenes peeks at Zack Snyder’s much-anticipated, live-action adaptation, as well as first looks at “Star Trek,” “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince,” “Land of the Lost” and “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.” But that’s not how we started the week, is it?

- While much of the US was taking a Presidents Day break, we were getting our geek on and bringing you Toy Fair 2009 news from Manhattan — and if you look closely, you might even find a few movie spoilers among the toys we showed you, too!

- We counted down the hours until “Spoilers” by giving you a peek at the must-see Q&A with the “Watchmen” director, and behind-the-scenes commentary from MTV News’ Tim Kash (who embarked on a quest to find The Comedian’s pin) and Kim Stolz (who did everything she could to avoid Dr. Manhattan’s skyscraper).

- We even connected with one of the online world’s geek elite, Wil Wheaton, who gave us his impressions of “Watchmen,” while My Chemical Romance told us their “Watchmen”nstory.

- It was a particularly busy week for video, with two “Watchmen” TV spots and five new “Watchmen” clips, a trio of new “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” trailers, and an exclusive clip from the “Wonder Woman” animated feature.

- But “Watchmen” wasn’t all we were talking about this week, as the last few days were filled with “Iron Man 2″ casting troubles and our first peek at the cast of “Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World”.

It was a busy one, but it only gets better this weekend! Be sure to tune in Saturday at 8 PM for MTV’s “Spoilers” (and check back here on Splash Page after the show airs for all sorts of exclusive content) — you’ll be glad you did!

Cleaning out our memory cards this morning, we realized we hadn't run anything on the rest of the Chevy Autobots unveiled in Chicago. Hooray for me, right? Without further ado, here's the Bumblebee "II" Camaro.

Although we already showed you how Chevy put together the big Bumblebee statue, we wanted to get a chance to satisfy my robogasmic desires (destroying some of our commentariat's hopes to never see another word written about this movie) with a few shots of the new-and-slightly-more-Mad-Max-ish Bumblebee II Camaro from Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen. Sure, we've already given you the new "Sideswipe" Stingray Corvette Concept, but no love's yet been given to one of our most valued commenters. So, voila, below are our shots of this yellow bowtied Camaro-Transformers tie-in love.

Below that, we've also re-run the "How To Build Bumblebee" shots. In case you missed them.

When we're not reporting on the latest political issue or interviewing a famous film or music star, here at Seven we like to put up our feet and watch the coolest new films out there. Along with the new Terminator Salvation film starring the fantastic Christian Bale, one of the movies we're most looking forward to in 2009 is the new Transformers movie, Revenge of the Fallen. In our opinion, Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox starring in a Michael Bay directed movie that is executive produced by Steven Spielberg, and also features some really cool cars that turn into robots = amazing film.

Weekend concerts and movie trailers

Watch TV on PC - 12,000 TV Channels and Movies

If you're wondering what to do this weekend, head on over to The Red Room in Kennewick this Saturday.

Mwanza, Brazen Layver and Run From Cover will be performing, beginning at 8 p.m. and you'll be sorry you missed it.

All three bands embody a new sound that the metal/rock-filled Tri-Cities should eagerly welcome. Nothing is wrong with heavy metal, punk or rock, but nothing is wrong with switching things up, either.

Each band has a full sound that is concert-quality. If you want to be blown away for under $10, The Red Room is the place to be.

The event will also be Run From Cover's EP release. Their album is $6 at the show and definitely worth picking up, otherwise it drops for $8.

If you're not feeling their sound, head on over to The Parkade for Front Toward Enemy, the Oregon metal band that has more ambiance than one would think. The group packs an intensity that is needed to fill a Kennewick bar at 9:30 p.m., but diversify their sound so that you're not stuffed in a bar with metal heads alike.

If you miss Front Toward Enemy, they'll be back April 3, so don't cry yourself to sleep just yet.

In case you missed the trailers, a preview for Transformers 2 is out now and you can catch the HD version on YouTube.

Along with the slapstick, in-your-face, gratuitous nudity type of movies that end up being more funny than you thought they'd be, such as Grandma's Boy and Beerfest, are Fired Up! and Miss March. I must admit, Miss March did get me to chuckle, especially during the fire truck scene. But I'll probably wait for it to come out on Comedy Central...

And whatever you do, don't look up the Dragonball trailer... it'll just make you more depressed than you already are about the uber-popular anime...

Transformers 2: Product Placements (Not) In Disguise

Watch TV on PC - 12,000 TV Channels and Movies

Corvetteconcept02

GM will be well-represented in the upcoming Transformers sequel, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Four new bowtie-badged concepts have found their way onto the big screen, including "Sideswipe," an Autobot who is a dead ringer for the Corvette Stingray concept shown above.

The major product placements are a coup for GM, who is hoping to repeat its success with product placement in the first film. That movie starred a 2010 Camaro as Bumblebee, and GM's already sold 20,000 of those -- though we fear the GMC TopKick may suffer the same fate as Ironhide. The other concepts in the new film are the Chevy Volt, Trax, and Beat -- the last of which is very similar to the preproduction Chevy Spark. Viewers need not worry, as all the cars are on the right side of the great Autobot-Decepticon battle.

Chevy North America VP Ed Peper and GM Global Design VP Ed Welburn highlighted the concepts at the Chicago Auto Show during a live movie trailer press conference Wednesday. Best news of all for the recently bailed-out company? "It didn't cost us a thing," according to Peper.

According to sources from GM and the Transformers production team, the collaboration was borne from mutual admiration. The Detroit News reports that the Stingray had it's Schwab's Drug Store moment when director Michael Bay spotted the provocative concept in a GM design studio and begged the General to let the 'Vette come to Hollywood.

A last-minute addition to the film was "Jolt," a blue Chevy Volt that skirted the original audition process when GM pulled some strings. "We put him in before production started, during the mad dash to get a shooting draft ready," screenwriter Roberto Orci told Transformer World 2005. "But we always knew we WANTED to put him in from early on when we saw the design and realized it was a truly unique car."

The Beat and Trax are the automotive equivalent of Alec and Stephen Baldwin, starring as Skids and Mudflap, respectively. The hot hatches debuted together in 2007 along with the Chevy Groove which, like Daniel Baldwin, is mysteriously absent from the film.
