man why is Transformers 2 SO hated, if you take it for what it is, its a great movie about alien robots beating the living hell out of each other. you have two hot females and SOME funny parts(although my biggest negative about the movie was the amount of forced humor). i certainly dont understand the hyperbole i hear about "WORST MOVIE EVER" or "DESTRUCTION OF CINEMA". #xbox360

@kitenai: I for One Enjoyed The Movie!

Sure, it wasn't a good movie, but it was certainly entertaining for me...

Just wish the Fallen was more in line with Canon... #xbox360

@kitenai: I enjoyed the movie for the most part, but the movie was "blow shit up" good (what Michael Bay is known for), not so much "at least the story makes sense" good. #xbox360

Wow, movie on a USB?
Thats kinda lame.
It'll be so wrapped up in DRM it'll be worthless.
At least DVD is fairly universal, and you can rip it to a USB stick if you want.
Anyway I'm getting Star Trek on Blu-Ray. cos it's so a film worth having on Blu-ray. (and it'll be easier to spot R2D2 in HD)
Transformers 2 I think I'll pass.
at least until I develop a high speed DVD firer, then I can shoot polycarbide discs at Labeouf n Fox at speeds that may embed in their skulls. the impeding brain damage may improve their acting skills. #xbox360

@deanbmmv: the usbs will probably have the movies in better quality than the standard mpeg2 DVD codec.

@flanker22: Star Trek's VFX is done by ILM. Same with Transformers.,
And they sneak R2 D2 into as an Easter Egg..
As of yet he's not been found in Star Trek.
(I'm a VFX Student not a dumbass ;)

And as 32GB drives are still astronomically priced I doubt they will be in HD quality. Unless they stick it on a smaller drive n rape the moveis with a harsh codec to make it fit, in which case you may as well get the DVD version. #xbox360

@deanbmmv: It's a 4GB stick. We've already seen it on trekweb.com. (I'm a geek.) Apparently only 1 GB is the actual movie. [trekweb.com] Star Trek Blu-Ray FTW. Though neat to see as a Trekkie. They should have also done a PS3 one with the Blu-Ray, a Blu-Ray controller and a card to download Star Trek DAC. Maybe throw in a premium Star Trek dynamic theme. #xbox360

@deanbmmv: Ouch. :P

What scene is that? I can hardly make out anything in Transformers films, even when they are standing still...

Also, after a quick google, and sorry if this spoils the fun...

"During the Drill Machine sequence as the Enterprise comes out of its barrel role amidst destruction of the other Federation ships above Vulcan, we cut to an interior Enterprise bridge over the shoulder of Kirk that is looking out through the front viewscreen. In space, R2-D2 is floating in the debris from about the top middle of the screen to the bottom right."

@Maverick128: "Unlimited viewing on registered devices" - Eww. Said it'd be wrapped up in DRM. And 1GB ties it up in the realm of SD.
It's like the Digital Copy stuff that comes with Blu-Ray. I guess its easier than ripping a Blu-Ray then shrinking it so you can fit it on a PMP, but still a bit icky in the DRM it's tied up with.
Actualyl with it using DivX it should be possible to watch on a PS3. I know You can register your PS3 for some DivX DRM thing. Think it came with FW2.30 or something. Just turn it on the menu like you do for WMV/WMA playback. #xbox360

@ThursdayNext: It was Skelzor versus Zombies.
But yes I played a bit. Though only a few rounds (and everyone carries on choosing the train wreck, I much prefer lost city)
But ended up on TF2 KOTH_Harvest instead (only admin around for our server)
How long does it last? I got the day off so I can play if your up for it. I know I've promised Mason some Co-Op now he has it. #xbox360

Transformers 2 is the worst film i've seen in at least 10 years. It actually made me angry while I was watching it. I hate it.

On the flip side I absolutely loved the new Star Trek film. They completely reinvented the franchise, while at the same time staying true to the old stuff (in a very clever way), and the film also payed countless homages to the old stuff. There are just too many references to count :).

I also <3 the new Enterprise. I was worried they'd completely butcher it. Thunderbirds film style. But I was suprised to see it stayed mostly faithful to the old ones.

And what is ironic is that both films had the same writers.

PS That is one awesome Star Trek box. I love the half built enterprise.

Errr... The Star Trek USB drive doesn't even look like it'll fit in the 360's USB slots. MAYBE the one in the back. #xbox360

@linuxguy: They sell a few things like that in gamestation, or, sold, I dont think they caught on, seems like a bad idea to me, you get the downside of downloading (legal or not) - digital only, and also the downside of a physical copy - having to leave your man cave to get it.

Usb movies have no place in this world.

Expecially since theyre only usually less than 1gb, its just... no words can describe the amount of turd that surrounds them. #xbox360
