Thumbs up OFFICIAL TRANSFORMERS 2 - Revenge of the Fallen thread

CAUTION - Thread may contain Spoilers

Ok... so the long anticipated Transformers 2 - Revenge of the Fallen, opens next Wednesday. Some theaters will have midnight screenings on Tuesday.
I was never much into sci-fi flicks but with cool cars and one of the hottest chicks on the planet (except for her thumbs lol) I had to see the first one, and yea, im a fan.

This next one runs 2hr20min and the budget was increased to 200 million dollars, 50 million more than the first film.

-=SPOILER ALERT!=-
Do not read below, a couple of plot lines.

There are several new robots AND characters (the good and bad) including:
Arcee - girl robot - motorcycle(s)
Sideswipe - corvette stingray concept - pic below
the Twins - Skids and Mudflap (dumb and dumber) lol
Jolt - chevy volt
Jetfire - SR-71
Wheelie - toy monster truck
The Fallen - bad *** ****
Soundwave - badguy
Demolisher - Terex O&K RH 400 hydraulic mining excavator
Sideways - Audi R8 - silver
Ejector - crazy toaster
Alice - a new hottie in sams life (yes i know all about her, but not giving anything away)
Scalpel - robot doctor
Devastator - huge robot 50ft tall made up of the following robots -
--Hightower - Kobelco CK2500 crawler crane
--Long Haul - Caterpillar 773B dump truck
--Mixmaster - Mack concrete mixer truck
--Rampage - Caterpillar D9 bulldozer
--Scrapper - Caterpillar 992G scoop loader
--Overload - articulated dump truck
--Scavenger - mining rig similar to demolisher
Ravage - psycho dog robot



There is an IMAX version which is reportedly a long version with longer robot fighting scenes... not sure if this is accurate.

Bumble Bee is now represented as the 2010 production model SS camaro, no longer the prototype as in the first film... he has been rebuilt stronger.

Magan fox and I are secretly dating (so much a secret not even she knows about it)

14 robots last time, 46 robots this time

TF1 took 20 Terabytes of disk space. TF2 took 145 Terabytes. Seven times bigger!

3 full scenes were shot in IMAX... similar to the opening scenes of The Dark Knight

During the filming - Shia Lebouf got in a serious car accident (offset) and his hand was severely injured, almost stopping production. The entire movie had to be rearranged and world class specialist and doctors had to come in and devise a special kevlar cast for him... he almost lost usage of his hand for life, but continued to shoot the movie.

couple of pics -

want to touch the hiney!

Camaro -


New stingray vet



wow, not sure why I spent the last 30+ minutes on this thread hahaha...
I do have my VIP tickets for wednesday 1230pm (theater down the street has a vip lounge - seats are love seats (huge) they serve alcohol, free popcorn, no one under 21 allowed, and full bar and grill service - best of all - reserved seating purchased online, you can show up 5 minutes before the movie starts and your seat is waiting.

That sounds like a pretty cool movie theater!! Justin can't wait to see this, I just hate going to the theaters now-a-days. Spend money to listen to people on their phones, texting, getting up and down...
