Default Transformer Movie

Well there's a transformer movie comming out next year and i was wondering if the scion xb autobot skid would be in the movie. wouldn't you guys think that it would be cool to see one of our boxes as an autobot kickin' decepticon a$$ in a movie. man an xb versus starsream or even megatron. that would be sweet.

Nah... I'd say the xB should be a decepticon and kick Optimus Prime's rear nut.

Yup, shallow story, all action. The perfect guy for a movie that has cars that transform into Giant Robots and fight.
Want to talk about a great movie to turn your brain off to?
This is my younger-self's wet dream of a movie!

I'm more than a little bit peeved that Jazz is a chick car Solstice. GM is sponsoring this movie, so don't expect anything but vehicles from the General.

^^I know what you mean man. Jazz should have been a Lambo or something with a little more ***** and umph!

My childhood memories weeped a little when I saw that Optimus Prime was going to have FLAMES painted on him!
But then I saw the pictures and I'm choicing to not complain to much till I see the movie.

Jazz was Porsche 911 turbo. That's what he should be in the movie, nothing else. I would accept the Decepticon Jets being f-22's instead of f-16's, that's a no biggie, but Porsche to Solstice? Please. I'd have to shoot myslef in the face if I had to make that step down. But whatever, since they moved him to a Solstice does Richard Simmons or Harvey Firestien voice him now?

I like the transformations so far. mr.bay said he wanted to make the transforming actually seem realistic to the vehicle. the cartoons, weren't, they were big and blocky tranformations.

i was the big fan growing up. i remember when i went to the theatre for the cartoon, & that cheesey music video at the end. i was like 6 or so when i got the megatron ruger pistol. i was king of my block when i got that ****. I still even have my alpha omega toy (the tank, track and rocketship transformers) sadly the ruger was left in my grandpas iowa farm.

i always loved the 5 transformers that joined to make one big @$$ robot... i cant remember their names... but the decepticons had the farm vehicles and the autobots had the jets...

i wonder how many they will show or mention or flash back to.... dinobots anyone?

only 5 robots per team/side in the movie.

dinobots were the poorest part of the original show.

the dinobots were crazy, and grimlock was too powerful, they'd have him just about go toe to toe with OP.

Dude, the craziness was the best part! What's better then a giant robot that turns into a truck? A giant CRAZY robot that turns into a dinosaur!

Now if you want to talk stupid, remember the little ones that transformed into rocks?
