Re: Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen
yes, though then again, they aren't exactly babies...and we don't have laws against beating newly sapient robotic life forms.
In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

I didn't say it was good to do, just easier.

Re: Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen
Makes me wonder if maybe my first idea isn't true, that their like primitive Transformers...and their being killed because the Autobots want to be a secrete, kind of hard to do with another race of sapient robots evolving on the planet.

A good friend of mine saw it today, and he said it rocked. If you like seeing sh*t explode, and giant sapient robots beat each other to death, anyways.Tyyr wrote:I've been getting the feeling that bashing the first movie and this one has suddenly become the cool thing to do.
Which I do.
He did say the military action was unrealistic, like standing on top of an Abrams during a battle (if you want to take out giant alien robots, you'll want to fire that 120mm smoothbore, and not with someone standing up there.)
Still, I'm seeing it on Monday.

He might've been thinking about his tour in the Gulf.

Re: Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen
TF reprodction is... complicated, and varies from franchise to franchise. They sort of have genders. In G1, Optimus had a girlfriend-Elita One. Arcee had... feelings for Hot Rod, and then Springer. And don't even get me started on Blackarachnia and Silverbolt from Beast Wars/Machines.
As for the movies, well the bikes had female voices.
Anyway, just got back from seeing it. Loved it, too. Incredible action. Interesting backstory, too. Some lame comedy, but meh.

Re: Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen
Am I the only person who actually enjoyed the awkward, lame comedy in the first one?
