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 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
@Cptn.PaxtonAstypalaea(Corsair): definitely not citizen kane but i mean its michael bay i dont think anybody was expecting that ;) to me it seems like people are hating it to follow some sort of trend. #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
@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
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."
@Spidery_Yoda: Ah. ILM mentioend it was in the scene when they warp out into the rubble of ships. (good hiding place I guess)
But now you've spoiled the film for me :(
:P #xbox360
@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.
@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
@Cptn.PaxtonAstypalaea(Corsair): I consider myself to be a big Trek fan and I'd totally spend it on something else. That game is a steaming pile. #xbox360
I think it is funny in mid-late July she talks crap about how Transformers hasn't done much for here since it wasn't "showing her acting chops". Now her PR guy is going you have to do this because you would have remained a nobody. I can't stand her maybe the fact that she is fake bugs me so much, because this is such PR even her gamer tag screams this is for the money.
@TheNexusRebound: Fake? what, cause she's hot and uses that to get work? cause she (says she) wants actual acting roles, instead of show pieces for her cleavage? cause she's promoting herself? it's part of her fucking job to promote herself, that includes pretending to enjoy things she may not be that into. Billions of people do that every day at their mundane jobs, what makes this any more sinister? aren't all game with fame players issued tags (i'm guessing hers is GWF_MF(ers!!!)) so really, it just screams "if she has a real gamer tag they don't want you abusive haters knowing it"
At least she'll stoke out a few gamers who'll get to interact with a hot celebrity, personally i think Uno with a camera would be a better fit , but she has to promote the game of the movie she's in. At least they don't have her playing Halo.
@luigilogik: All I am saying is she talked down on Revenge of the Fallen and the Transformers films, then this pops up. I just personally think so many people over looking her holier then thou personality. In reality it doesn't matter cause it isn't really any skin off my back. On a side note though take a peek at her up coming movies she still isn't selling herself as more then a slab of meat.
Megan Fox is forced to pretend she enjoys video games by her PR management company.
This is as bad as when they were promoting Max Payne and Mila Kunis appeared on some talk show talking about how much she loved Warcraft or some game. The nerdy viewership lapped it up like hungry dogs.
Oh yes, Mila Kunis does love video games! And that's why you should buy a ticket to see Max Payne.
@GlenTen: Mila Kunis was cool and fun in that show. Was it Conan? Kimble? Cant remember clearly.
Anyhooo, moviestars always have to visit the late night shows to promote their films; its part of their contract. But rarely do the interviews only pertain to the movie they're promoting. Why not have some more personal questions in there to make the interview less commercial and more interesting?
Too bad her acting in the movie was terrible, especially the fake Russian accent. Come on, research a language and character more if you're being paid top dollar for it!
