    Wow, more comedy than I expected-- I thought that, with the exception of maybe the briefest of brief parts, this would be a dire-straits type of movie. I can handle some comedy, so long as it's not too much.

    Wow these scenes are almost identical to the leaked/released/whatever script. That's good news because I really enjoyed what I read.

    Kinda bummed about Prime having a mouth, but if I got used to it in Beast Wars, I can live with it during the movie. I can't wait for this to come out!

    I've been skeptical of the movie since the designs have begun leaking but hearing this report gives me hope.

    I really do hope that the movie turns out well and all the badness I feel for what I've seen is dead wrong due to the images being still images as opposed to motion shots, but Prime without a face-plate in what could very well be the ONLY movie rendition of him we'll ever get is just messed up. I mean, the face-plate is something that makes Prime Prime just as much as the windows do on his chest in robot mode. What's next, Jazz without a vizor...oh yeah, forget they did that too, so nevermind.

    Why does Prime have to have a mouth? He just doesn't need one. Not even for emotion, his eyes could easily affect that. The comedic elements sound like they'll play out to be cheesy, hopefully they don't take away from the tone of the film. Guess I'll find out soon enough.

    Talked a bit with Tony on the phone an hour ago about it.

    He said that Cullen was the only voice actor to actually have his parts in the flick, the other characters DID speak, but were just your casual guy on the street doing the lines (no acting).

    He said he believes the movie is going to be big ... and you have to remember, Tony was in the same boat with the "haters" and such, not really having a desire to see it but now apparently wants to watch all of it.

    Said that it will turn haters around once they actually see the film.

    i'm glad to hear this, as it sounds like Tonyt and I are on about the same page, both from past converstations on here and just the basic description. :D 

    my hope meter just raised a little bit!

    Thanks, Kicky. Well, if Tony didn't go nuts over Prime's mouth maybe it isn't that big a deal.

    ive been long time supporter of the movie [more or less]
    but mouth prime... im leary. i understand the whole battlemask shpiel [dam you aaron archer xD isnt he the one whos been adament about having a mouthed prime in all the recent series? :p ] and i let it slide with recent series mostly because Chalk was the VA [come on... Chalk was Primal. Primal had a mouth. So it was okay if Chalks prime had a mouth too] but cullens voice coming out of a non-faceplated prime head.

    i dunno. i'll have to see it. but it'll be a tough swallow[not unlike a lot of things in the movie]. hopefully he's got his "battle mask" on a lot xD

    but it sounds awesome

    also kinda leary on the comedy. i just hope its not overdone/wacky/corny and therefore making the movie seem "dumb".

    i know, i sound so negative, but really i'm uber excited. definately a bit green with envy :D 



    hey it took me a bit to warm up to the movie stuff too so who knows. maybe ill end up being a mouthed prime convert xP

    Sounds awesome...I'm hugely jealous. Prime having a mouth/faceplate combo points to another BW inheritence...can't have too many of those. July 4th can't come soon enough.

    Yes, that's very good news indeed. Reminds me of the positve reaction at the Hasbro panel at BotCon '06 when they showed that behind the scenes sneal peek of the '07 movie

    It's great how some of the "haters" have changed their tune about this movie. Just goes to show that one can't judge a book by it's cover :) 

    Oooo I can't wait till this summer. I think this might be the one time I see a movie twice :D
