Strong Bob Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 No. The distinctive five-tone transformation sound is absent, it only appears in the trailers. Were you watching a cut movie? I distinctly heard three separate events featuring the five-tone transformer sound. The first of which is right there in the beginning, when the helicopter transforms. Did you take any bathroom breaks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matri Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 That's only 3. There are far more than just 3 transformations in the movie. On a side note: Open letter to Optimus Prime from his insurance agent. P.S. Frenzy is a poser! Soundwave superior, Frenzy inferior! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strong Bob Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 Exactly, they are not "absent", and appear in the movie. Which is what I was pointing out. The letter is amusing though. I can see Optimus reading that to himself and groaning about how much money it costs to save the world... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NKF Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 Uh, I'd field that one. But I don't know if we have "spoiler" tags on this board. I have my theory on this one. They're half baked. Basically there's life, but no mind's been put in. Their actions are all reflex. Or I suppose another way to put it would be robot equivalents of zombies. - NKF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slaughter Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 *mild spoilers* Right, just watched this one. Goes into my "Same shit, different wrapping" category. Sure, it was fun watching the robots in the beginning and all, but the farther into the movie you got the less appeal it had. As this happened, the lack of quality in story, acting, jokes and so on starting shining through real bad. I was glad it was over when it finally ended.

Matri Posted July 15, 2007 Report Share Posted July 15, 2007 So, when do we take off the spoiler tags and over-analyze the movie to death? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strong Bob Posted July 16, 2007 Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 It's practically out of the theaters now, but I'll wait until it's completely out before I analyze. I will say that I went to see Harry Potter, Fantastic Four, and Pirates 3 in the past week. Transformers easily has the greater story of them all. (In fact, I think the latest Pirates movie was utter garbage... And I really enjoyed the first two.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slaughter Posted July 16, 2007 Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 Good to know. I thought the first Pirates was okay at best, so I'll pass the second and third. I may rent Harry Potter at some point, but with Fantastic Four I haven't bothered to see the first one. I remember reading a few of the comics back in the days, and didn't even like those...

That's telling something, since we're comparing three blockbuster movie sequels vs a Michael Bay movie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strong Bob Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 By the way, does anyone know where I can get a copy of the Transformers soundtrack that isn't just songs from a bunch of silly bands featured in the movie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azrael Strife Posted July 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 Do they at least use some of the tunes from the cartoons or from 'Transformers: The Movie"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strong Bob Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 Got my copy from Itunes. Otherwise go hunting in the various record stores in your area.Um... Are you sure you got the one with the soundtrack music and not just the band music? Which copy do you have exactly? I can't find the instrumental music at any such "record store". If you have the instrumental soundtrack, what is it called/does it look like? Because I can't find it anywhere. Do they at least use some of the tunes from the cartoons or from 'Transformers: The Movie"? I honestly don't think so. The score seems original. Which is what I, personally, prefer.

Strong Bob Posted July 21, 2007 Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 Thanks for the info. Haha. I looked at that Wiki article shortly before I asked on here. It must've been updated afterwards, because I don't recall seeing that tidbit of information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
