I've seen it 5 times now.

You know when Frenzy was infiltrating Air Force One, did anyone else hear a woman to the left side of the theater laughing????

I noticed a woman laughing to the far upper left corner of the theater during that scene. When I watched it the first 4 times, I thought that some lady was just thinking that the scene was hilarious.

But on the fifth time, I watched it on a smaller screen so the theater house is smaller and then when that laugh came up, it sounded like it was part of the movie which I'm 99% sure it is.

Did anyone else notice this? It was awfully loud.

OMG. I wasn't crazy!! It was like a high pitched cackle laugh or something. I've seen it 4 times, and it didnt occur to me, I thought it was someone in the crowd. It could just be a sample that frenzy is using to display that he's found what he's looking for? I don't know, but I heard that laugh as well.

I noticed it too, it drove me crazy the 1st 3 times I saw the movie, but this last time I figured it out, it's when the stewardess goes back up the elevator after getting the President his Ding Dong. You hear the bell of the elevator and the laughter from up stairs for a brief second. It startles Frenzy a lil bit, that's why he turns around real quick, but then turns right back around to go back to work.
I do think that it was incredibly loud, which drew way more attention to it than needed be. If it had been a lil quieter it would have blended in better and not have had everybody wondering who the hell in the audience was laughing so loud.

The actual sound seems out of place because its seems unusually loud

However the laughter if somewhat appropriate because I guess it might appear that the audience would find that a killer robot knows so much about their computer systems and he seems to be a pro at using their interface. It does appear kinda funny in a way.

I think it was just used as a way to give something for Frenzy to react to. If i remember right (and i only say it an hour ago), he sort of adjusts his stature as if preparing to transform (or atack) if the source of the noise comes closer.

But why a laugh...hardly befits the situation they were in.

Haha!

Looks like there's a couple of us who noticed that woman too.

The third time I thought, "what is so goddamn funny?!".

But then I watched it... ahem, somewhere else and noticed the woman laughing is one of the stewardesses on AFO.

That's just terrific sound editing and mixing. I noticed it the first time, then it hit me an hour later that "WOW! That wasn't real. That's just good filmmaking."

I too am up to five viewings. Heading to a Digital projector this week.

yes Frenzy reacts to the laugh when it happens. Caught me a bit off guard too. But then I noticed Frenzy's reaction. It seemed a bit too loud for a laugh that made its way through the walls of the plane to Frenzy... Which is why it seemed out of place.

HAHAHA JESUS. I've wondered EVERY SINGLE TIME why someone laughs so god damn loud in that part hahahaha. I keep sitting there thinking "What the hell, this isn't a funny scene at all??" I thought I kept missing some little thing he did that was funny or something.

On the subject of laughter, and the reason I reared my ugly head here again, when the Autobots are standing on that building when Prime reads the glasses and whatnot, every time except for the premiere the audience laughs. I don't get it, what the hell am I missing here? Is that building some sort of US monument that for some reason makes it a funny scene or what?

Yeah I get quite a bit of laughing on that scene also whenever I watch it. I'm up to 6 viewings now Haha! And I don't find that scene that funny but I guess people are laughing cuz it seems so ridiculous that giant robots are hiding out at some place like that.
