Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Ironhide, Sam and Mikaela
Optimus Prime (Peter Cullen), Bumblebee and Ironhide along with Sam and Mikaela are on a journey to Sam's house to try and find some object Sam has. This scene is pretty funny as Sam tries to hide the from his dad that he's hanging out with 3 huge robots. Prime nearly steps on a dog who later shows is displeasure by urinating on Irongide who mutters something about lubricants on his foot. Prime speaks in this clip. Cullen's voice sounds good. The Robots are very well animated and look very life-like. Later some government organization who are on the trail of giant robots come to the Witwicky home.

Extended Desert Scene
An Extended Desert Scene was shown of the troops encounter with Scorponok. Having to borrow a cell phone from a bystander so they can call the pentagon while fighting Scoponok, Captain Lennox encounters a not so helpful phone operator who requires a credit card number for a collect call before he will put the call through. Eventually, Lennox makes contact with the Pentagon who send air re-enforcements to help send Scoponok back under ground. This gives the folks at the Pentgon their first look at the robots.
The scenes shown definitely had the feel of a Michael Bay movie with a nice mixture of action, explosions and humor. The special effects were also quite good. If the overall story plot is as good as the action and special effects we saw, then this may be one blockbuster movie that old and new Transformers fans alike will enjoy.

Please tell me you're just quoting that shit from some other site, and all the positive commentary isn't your own thoughts.
The slapstick humor of a kid hiding three giant robots from his dad? A dog pissing on Ironhide? Troops in the Middle East borrowing a cell phone to call the Pentagon? Bumblebee trying to help Spike score?
Snigtad, how much did they pay you to write this script?

That was all direct cut and paste.

At least they are using the Classic Transforming sounds.

The original transforming sound is the stupidest thing about the original cartoon. Everyone knows that when gears turn and metal scrapes against metal, it sounds nothing like that imbecilic grooving noise that some deaf, retarded Chinaman came up with because it was the cheapest sound effect in the stock library. God! I love how you guys rant and rave about what a stupid fucking idea and waste of money this movie is. And I'm totally with you on that one. This movie is going to make Fast and the Furious look like Godfather Part II. But then you turn around and defend the dumbest fucking part of the movie. What a bunch of assholes! The only way this movie will redeem itself is if it turns into a topless carwash fifteen minutes in with a bunch of hot, horny co-eds rubbing their boobies on each other while they wax Bumblebee and goes like that until the credits roll. You guys are bunch of dicks. You deserve to have your stupid website all purple.
ALL HAIL MR. PERPANTOR!!

You seen the footage on MTV.com, EP?
The interviewer asks Bay if there'd be a sequel, and he says likely. But it'd have to be bigger. The interviewer then asks him if there are any Transformers he'd like to include in a sequel, and he responds, "I can't tell you. The script hasn't been written yet."
In other words, "I can't tell you, because I don't know any!" I mean, fuck, dude, you want bigger, wouldn't those dumb fucks Devastator and Grimlock be pretty goddamned obvious?
Fucking mullet-wearing cocksucking douchebag.
I think Doctor Douche didn't really die. He just is working more in his civilian identity as Michael Bay.

This is why I don't watch Transformers anymore. It's just too depressing.

I think he's doing a lot of talking out of his ass, but I also think that higher powers like Spielberg and the studio guys have a gag order over the whole shebang, and he's trying to remain positive without saying anything, which is hard to do and not look like a douche.
I like Michael Bay movies. The guy ain't Orsen Welles or John Huston or anything, but he delivers good popcorn movies. I already knew from day one this wouldn't be the Greatest Transformers Movie ever. But fuck if I'm gonna stress about how bad it will be. I've already had to sit through the Prequel Trilogy. Life went on.

I plan to watch it only if someone other than Bay himself or Tycho say good things about it.
Bay's stuff isn't bad per se, but it's the same formula over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over.

How much to rent your space, anarky?
