I also mention that previous Wheelie was an autobot in 3rd season of Transformers series 1

when you

on me[/QUOTE]

meh you wouldnt get a global facepalm for that.

But as a character in the 2nd film, wheelie was an annoying git who helped druggie mum, the twins, screaming blogger, devestators balls, whitefronts and the robot slut drag the tone of the film down through the mud into the sewer and through the anus of those blind fish with the sparkly bulb on a string over their head that live at the very bottom of the ocean...

so bringing that version back does indeed warrent a facepalm from the entire world and many many future generations.

To answer your questions wampyrus77, the reason why the movies are different to the cartoon is that they want to make something different!

Why?

Is the Wheelie from ROTF any more annoying/childish than the Wheelie from TF:TM?

I wonder sometimes if people want a Transformers movie at all or whether they might prefer The Dark Knight with robots.

That would be cool though.

the standard set by nolan as nothing to do with a dark tone.

its the world building he engaged in while being respectful to the source material. the bloke literally pilfered from several different story arcs and graphic novels to build his batman's world.

marvel have just done the same with thor.

i doubt ANYONE could say thats dark but theres the exact same process that went into batman going on there to construct a universe where he works (i mean who the hell thought we'd see the casket of eternal winters in that one ? ).

my problem with bay is if you took optimus prime out of these films theres virtually nothing to say its transformers. dub a few names and its gobots or a completly new entity.

to further the batman analogy if bay was behind it half the film would 360 shots of his main female lead bending over and flashing her tits with batman turning up after a load of fart and ball jokes tp get into a car chase in the batmobile and you wouldnt recognise the joker who turns up at the end with virtually no dialogue to be beaten by a cop.

now that probably WOULD still make several hundred million at the box office but its not what batman fans should expect now. most of whoms audience would also know batman from a cartoon and toy first and comic second. hell theres probably more people remember the 60s show than think of the comic.

dont get me wrong i enjoy bays transformers films for the spectacle they provide but ive no illusions that what were looking at is the tim burton/joel schumacher period of TF films.

on the animated TF film

yes the orignal animated one had dumb elements but ya have to ask considering HOW different that was from the TV series , where they never had singing and dancing routines, just how much of that was studio interference in getting an animated film made for theatrical release in the first place ? all the studio heads knew of them was disney films - featuring singing and dancing - and it was unheard of back then to have movie stars do the voices.

i reckon the studios demanded that nonsense. particularly when the show picked up again for the third series there was none of that kept.

to me that flim was leagues ahead of its time fitting neatly between twee disney pap and manga ultra violence, and the suits just didnt get it.

Carnage in a C Minor?

isnt that the one routinely considered to be the worst animated episode of any cartoon ever ?



and hey the TFs werent singing , gobshyte aliens were.

And in defense of the animated movie, the robots weren't singing either. Just dancing. Pluss the dancing only lasted about 15 seconds tbh.

strangely yes.

He is.

Wheelie from the the animated movie is annoying, dont get me wrong, but he was never uncomfortably annoying. He talked in an annoying manner and filled in a basic subplot. Annoying but harmless.

Wheelie from ROTF humped megan fox's leg and spent 3/4 of the film being a drooling subdom slave to her in the most annoying of manners and filled in a confusing subplot (primes hiding on earth all this time which makes no sense in context of the first and possibly the third film)


weighing up the two, innocence makes wheelie in TFAM less annoying (and disturbing) then wheelie in RTOF. I'm almost thinking Bay if he is clever enough is making a commentary on the success and fanbase of the first film with this character perhaps.

but again reading too much into something as a deep a plank of wood.

but i prefer the animated Transformers movie 1986 compare Transformers movie 2007

Oh man, I can't wait for this. MichaelBaySPLOSION! If anything would be great in 3D, it's transformers knocking lumps out of each other

Dude's not a storyteller but he knows his action sequences

oh I've no doubt it'll look spectacular, if he knows how to do one thing its deliver eye candy on a phenomenal scale.

I'm also thinking this will will be my "Okay 3D, this is your last chance" movie. I mean I haven't been impressed by 3D since Avatar. The 3D trailer looks promising.
