OFFICIAL Transformers 2 NEWS Thread Part 6 [Spoilers]

I'm guessing thrown.

"The U.S. Department of Defense gave its official stamp of approval to the Michael Bay-directed film, not only allowing production amid the pristine dunes of the Army's New Mexico missile range, but also letting filmmakers follow jets and fighter planes through the sky from nearby Holloman Air Force Base. More scenes were shot on the Navy's aircraft carrier USS John C. Stennis, and Marines fill the ranks of the strike team battling the invading Transformers".

"Among the equipment the movie is using in this desert sequence alone: two A-10 Thunderbolt II "Warthog" tank-killing jets; six F-16 Fighting Falcons; 10 armored Humvees; the Army's Golden Knights parachute team; two Abrams tanks; two Bradley tanks; two missile-launcher vehicles; two armored personnel carriers; and a quarter-mile of the missile testing range, cleared of unexploded ordnance and built into an Egyptian town and temple. (Signs warn not to cross a perimeter just over the gypsum dunes, because live bombs could be hidden in the sand)".

So now I just want to say thank you Mr. Bay for useing my ideas of the U.S unit I put together or I should say the very close likeness to my Unit in the Rise of The Decepticons Fan-fic. The only difference is my unit had an artillery unit not Missle-launchers and 5 Abrams not 2. So ya I want to see what units of these you have transform into Cons or maybe Combaticons. For those of you that did read Rise of The Decepticons... remember one of the personnel carriers transformed crushing the troops inside

So should we be thanking you instead of the production/writing team for coming up with such an awesome story?

C'mon man, seriously?

I bet they used many of the ideas by thousands of other fans out there, including Shadow.

[Andreas]

Don't feel like going through 18 pages, so if this is a re-post, sue me.

[SDL]

[Trailbreaker]

I read that in Empire, Bay denied that Megatron will be resurrected. This of course contradicts the new concept art we have seen. Or maybe not...

...because we all know he's going to be back, but not resurrected, which means HE NEVER DIED!!!

We all know he's in ROTF so if he really never died, it will be interesting to see how the story line is set up. I doubt they will just have the movie start with Megs already raising hell. There will have to be something leading up to and explaining Megatron being alive.

most of this should be explained in the Alliance and defiance comics leading up the the movie's release. So get the comics people. And at last count I am now up to 29 named and un-named bots in the ROTF movie but have seen and heard of maybe up to 40+ bots in the movie. Again remember most of these bots are not named and are fodder bots but when I say a lot of big names... there are some big names I didnt expect to be in this movie

[Trailbreaker]

Kinda like the "Redshirts" in Star Trek.

[Shadow]

Kinda like the "Redshirts" in Star Trek.

you got it.

[Trailbreaker]

Well it seems like there's gonna be an all out war in this movie.

[Shadow]

Well it seems like there's gonna be an all out war in this movie.

something like that lol. Remember the Cons attack many parts of the world in this one so the Autobots are spread thin around the world. Also the Cons are tring to capture Sam in the movie not kill him.

Umm....

*Bay and LaBeouf confirm the Fallen is a separate character. End of.
*Egyptian hieroglyphics, like the one at the bottom of my post, turn out to be depictions of Transformers who visited Earth.
*Bay claims Megatron is not coming back and the tank is just a new toy.
*Around 40 robots.
*Budget is $200 million.
*Ramon Rodriguez is the one holding on for dear life to a pole while cars are flung.
*Devastator appears at the pyramid, he's probably 50 feet tall because that's the height of the camera crane they used on location.

*gulp*

[dragon]

ahah he said 50 feet tall for devastator funnny trasnformer combinor of what is it 6 or 7 combinrs to form one giant combinor i find it hard to beivle hell be 50 feet tall with athat robots to form one big one little bit over 50" i can believe but not 50 exactly.

[TIMtationX]

@ 40 ROBOTS!!

[megatron42]

so megatron isn't coming back great

[Trailbreaker]

Well, hate to break it to you guys, but I don't mind actually. It seems like to me this film series is gonna run similar to many other film series, same good guy main characters, new villains to fight. I mean, wouldn't it be boring to fight the same guy over again?

Is that fan-fic posted somewhere? I would definitely like to read it.

[xana]

There's a 50/50 chance that it's not true.

Either way it's one big surprise when you see it in a theater. :deadhorse1:
