Ravage: MROOOWWWRRRRrrrr!!!!

also I agree...Alice/Pretenders tounge is totally a Legion reference

 

Definately agree that the new censor effect needs work. Get spoiler guy to do it, he needs work  

As for Alice, she definately knew Sam was going to that school and that's why she made a B-line for him as soon as she saw him in the dorm. As for Alice herself, I think it would have helped the general audience, if they knew before Sam that she was really a Decepticon. I was thinking something subtle like a Decepticon symbol tatoo on the small of her back that's revealed to the audience but not to Sam. That way the audience would have a better appreciation for the danger Sam faced, instead of thinking "what's up with the slut?"

 

I think the main reason they killed jetfire to combine him with Prime was to avoid writing too powerful of a character for the sequel. If he is too badass then they have to invent some crazy strong decepticons for him to fight. They probably want him closer to Megatron strength wise most of the time for drama.

Just a thought.

 

Drew and Gog brought up a good point and pretty much summed up my thoughts on re-watching ROTF. I really had little interest in seeing it a second time let alone a third or a forth time, which like Drew mentioned is interesting considering I kept going back for the first one. I also agree with Gog and the movie being exhausting. After thinking about it I think it's because there's just too much stuff thrown at you all at once. It just feels like the movie is a series of exclamation points trying to keep you excited and on the edge of your seat with the end result of the movie being disengaging and not really being that exciting.

 

Now that you mention it, a tramp stamp would have been perfect.

 

Drew and Omega on the same podcast?! THE UNIVERSE IS GONNA EXPLODE!!!

 

HAHAHA. Name dropped! XD

Thanks for commenting on the movie tie-in fiction, Vang'!

 

I totally get the feeling everyone was describing after seeing the film. I was already exhausted as I got to the midnight showing, and this didn't help. I just seemed like too much. Way, way too much. Too much for the film's running time and crew to handle it seems. Some of this I really started to notice when they started tossing out terms from the fandom. We got a lot of quick explanations for the Fallen, The Sun Harvester, Energon, and Space Bridges. I mean...yeah, I've been playing with these toys since I was like 5, and I know what these things are. The problem is not that, it's that too much is crammed into this film.

I also agree with a point, I believe Vangelus made in the initial ROTF podcast. Devastator could have carried the film's climax on his own. Honestly, take out the Fallen, and focus on the sun harvester. Make Devastator be the distraction for the Autobot forces while Megs/Starscream get the Harvester ready..There ya go. Take the extra time devoted to the Fallen to let Jolt say something. He is Autobot Jesus, after all.

 

Well, he would've done a sermon espousing the virtues of Primus if Devastator hadn't destroyed his "Mount".  

 

Great episode. Loved the soundwave = dr claw from Seth.

 

+1

this.

 

I like it, (the movie) the podcast was just OK  

I loved the quote "setting off fireworks in your eyeballs" in the who would you recommend this movie to section. LOL

 

wait did you guys talk about "reedman" at all during the podcasts?

 

Yes. Seth said he always thought it would be funny and awesome to have a TF made out of knives, and when he saw RotF, he was like, "Holy crap! It's a TF made out of knives!"

 

yeah sorry the 3+ hours of movie podcasts are a mushy blur in my head =/

 

Same here.
