Nelson, if not mirage in the film who is the red robot?

[Trailbreaker]

Yeah but not to be a stick in the mud, Neslon talks all the time. Mirage will be Mirage in the movie, he probably will just not be vocally named as such.

Because he's going to be called something else.

[Plague1980]

The stuff that is NOT shown could be the difference between the two.

We all know there will be things that will be different. Example, in the ROTF novel and movie comics the ending was completely different then the ending we got in the movie. In the book, it was Megaton that broadcasted to the world and we got The Fallen in the movie doing so. In the ROTF book it was Megs and Starscream that sunk the Carrier. We seen it was The Fallen and other Cons in the movie. So yes we all know things like this will be different in the movie but in every book, comic and even the movie, except for the late addition of Jolt in ROTF every character stayed the same.

[Plague1980]

he may have a nick name or something else in the movie but he will still be Mirage. They are not going to change him as a character all together.

Of course not. But he's still not called Mirage in the movie. IIRC, Nelson said he gets a shoutout from NEST team members. (I forgot if it was here or TFW2005.)

I get what you are saying and I understand he will not be named Mirage in the movie because of it being a Hasbro name and cant be attached to the Ferrari brand that is licensed by Mattel. I get all that. Im just stating that he will still be Mirage even tho hes not called it by name in the movie.

[nelson]

so by the transitive power of NELSON... The Book Adapation Plot is going to be wrong when with each and every single new clip it looks to be even more correct.....

Please Explain how the adaption which is based upon the movie not correct...?

OP Overlord

I'm not going for massive plot spoilers round 2, but for starters, the comics/books,

-have the Twins
-do not reveal Brain's alt mode
-lack to mention other Decepticons found in the movie.

so by your explanation i spent 9 bucks on something that amounts to pure CRAP...???

yes it was a good read but if it is different then the movie then i again bought a junk book...

Ladies and gentlemen, if it is different then it is different in a massive way there is no if an's or but's about it. Hands down if the Book is different then the movie, then it is going to be massive.

I understand. But just a heads up, I'm going to refer to him as "Ferraribot" and eventually his movie name once it's revealed, because I only follow the movies.

you are intitaled to do as you want, i wont question that at all, just as I will continue to call him Mirage until otherwise clarified. And I do not mean clarified as in him having a stupid human name. Its already a shame that some of the bots look too human as it is.

Really NELSON? So i misspelled a word, we all do. You misspell shit all the time.

You've got to relax dude.

[mattimus prime]

this thread is really FUNNY :lmao

[Plague1980]

Was never more relaxed but you correcting a word i misspelled was in no way needed. Doing stuff like that should be beneath you Nelson.

There is nothing wrong with correcting people's spelling, just look it as a learning experience!

[Operationoverlord]

well thats not an asinine thing to say...

[Plague1980]

WOW! I never thought that for someone like you that is supposed to be about respect and running a site that represents Bay, would be so disrespectful. A learning experience? I don't need someone to correct my spelling or to tell me what they think I mean. Now, can we please get back on subject? Thanks for the spelling correction DAD! But like you tell us, if you have a problem with something someone says or does, PM them.

[Plague1980]

You've got to relax dude.

I was having a friendly debate with Trailbreaker on the Mirage name thing which this is the right place to do so am I correct? There really was no need to be childish and jump in to correct my spelling just to get a rise out of me Nelson.

[chatterbox]

so a comic book can have a picture of a farrari and the name mirage next to it but cant in the movie?

or do you not see farrari insignia on the car on the comics?

Not sure about the comics but the toys just call him a European sports car.

so if this is true then i can list what happens in the book on here? because apparently the book is not related to the Movie and the Plot will not be the same....???

I think it's so funny how some people on this board still cannot figure out what Nelson means.

OP Overlord

There is a lot in the book that will indeed happen in the movie. Nelson is just pointing out things that may or may not change from the book to the movie. The mention of there being more Cons in the movie then were mentioned in the book, I can say is true. None of the cons that we see in the trailers like the Audi, Brawl or Longhaul-like bots are not mentioned in the book. The Twins, Im still not inclined to believe they are gone yet.

ok, well then being you speak NELSON, how about you tell us

[chatterbox]

they cant licence a name to a farrari because then farrari will own that name? or farrari could use that name to help sell farraris or something and make a character with it that hasbro has no control over?
