Sounds like it's going to make for a great sequel, yet stand on it's own as a good movie by itself. As for it's abbreviated form, ROTF, I honestly couldn't care less about what it looks like abbreviated. Quote:

As far as the abbreviation goes, I found it a little funny that it looks like Rolling On The Floor. minus the LMAO. |

I highly doubt you'll see "R.O.T.F." plastered on any official movie marketing or merchandise. |

No it wouldn't, you gotta stop looking at it from a fans perspective.
Remember... and I wish everybody would say this to themselves before complaining about something related to the movie... this movie is made for the masses. A subtitle like "Starscream's Reign" or "Rise of the Decepticons" will raise more eyebrows than anything. |

it was a code name to throw people off
all sorts of movies that are likely to be high profile do this so there is not too much interference by media or fans during filming, and so it's less likely films will be stolen and bootlegged
I dodged a bullet, but then i fell onto a landmine. |

How can you hope it is a phase when you started it.
Transformers: Revenge of the fallen is the name of the movie it doesnt matter what you call it. I'm lazy so if i mention it in a thread I type (t, f, 2) which autoformats to tf2
Just so you know on star wars boards people type ROTJ which doesnt look and better then ROTF. That doesnt mean Return of the Jedi isnt a cool title.  Megatron says street dates are for wimps |

No. I did not pick the tag line. If Kruger and Orci wanted a tagline from me it wouldn't be Revenge of the Fallen. |
