Balloons and Robots.(Spoliers abound)

Tue Jun 30, 2009, 1:30 PM
  • Mood: Wow!
  • Watching: DBZ abridged, Episode 5
Saw Up and Transformers: ROTF recently. A few notes on each.

Up:

-Ed Asner ALWAYS sounds good.

-Kevin and Doug, especially Doug, are hilarious.

-Kevin was amusing as well.

-The five minute montage near the beginning is just magical.

-The entire film is magical. Go see it.

Transformers:

-I actually like the style of the Transformers in the movie, believe it or not. I think Kitty said on a Skype chat that the old blocky robot style just wouldn't work in live action. Plus, it makes the transformations SPECTACULARLY detailed.

-I never expected Megs to play second fiddle to anyone, but I think it was actually done pretty well.

-I actually found Mudflap and Skids to be pretty amusing. Wheelie ended up being pretty hilarious later.

-Getting Frank Welker to do Soundwave? Awesome. Not using the voice synthesizer and not giving him a bigger role? Not so awesome. Having Hugo Weaving voice Megs instead of Frank Welker? More awesome than g1 purists will ever admit, because Weaving actually fits the character of Movie Megatron: Cold hearted, single minded, utterly ruthless, and yet eerily intelligent as well.

-Peter Cullen as Optimus Prime? VERY AWESOME!

-Matrix of Leadership as a key to the Energon Harvester? Well, I can see why some would be upset, but personally I'm not. It's still a symbol of the Primes, and the Energon Harvester is less of a weapon and more of a device that could prove deadly in the wrong hands.

-Sideswipe not getting a bigger role? Not very awesome. Arcee being a hive mind among triplets? Odd, yes, but an awesome concept.

-Optimus dying? Proof why he is the leader of tha Autobots. He fell like a true hero. *Salutes Optimus.*

-Megatron's revival? AWESOMELY done.

-Jetfire is the best old fart ever.

-Humans? Pretty entertaining for the most part.I have NEVER understood why some transfans hate the humans so much. You'd think if giant shape shifting robots came to Earth, human interaction would be, I don't know.. NECESSARY?

.Devastator: For the most part awesome, though I admit he did get a bit gyped as far as screen time goes.

-Starscream? Pretty awesome. I thought it was cool to see the dick get punched around like he deserves. Sorta reminds me of the old G1 Megs/Screamer relationship. And I liked hearing Charlie Adler voice him.

-All in all: a pretty awesome movie. It's mostly about giant robots fighting and shit blowing up, but I appreciate that. And NO, it's not a G1 movie, and it's not ever going to be. The sooner people realize this, the better.
