First time I saw the video of Optimus Prime transform into his robot form, I knew right then that the movie would be a hit. I can hardly remember when was it but I think it was about more than a year ago in Youtube. It was still in the making since there was no body color yet, but it was good. It had me patiently waiting for its release.
Upon its release, I was kinda worried if I could watch the movie since I still don’t have the budget for those kinds of stuff and also, movies here in Manila costs twice as much as in CdO. I was very anxious to ask my father about it, but finally, I had the guts to do so last Thursday. He told me that we’ll watch it together, so I was relieved.
The movie was amazing!! I didn’t expect it to be that full of humor. Made the viewers smile and laugh while being astonished by how automobiles and aircrafts transform into kick-ass robots. And as what the ‘fat guy with a cam’ said in the movie:
This (referring to Transformers) is a hundred times cooler than Armageddon!
Armageddon is also done by Michael Bay. Would you agree?
Anyway, in the animated series Bumblebee was Volkswagen Beetle. You ever wondered why he’s a Chevrolet Camaro in the movie? Hmmmm.. I think it’s too funny to look at some Beetle being chased by a Ford Mustang. Hehe Ohh, poooor Jazz. He had a piece of Megatron, I mean, he was split in two by Megatron. Hehehe Kinda liked his attitude, but sad to say he has to go. Won’t be able to see him in the sequel. Tsk tsk tsk. Yup. Sequel. Fo sure!
Soundtrack was a blast too! Linkin Park’s ‘What I’ve Done’ as well as Goo Goo Dolls’ ‘Before It’s Too Late’. ;)
But at the end of the movie, I had a very big question mark hanging above my head saying, “What the hell happened to Barricade?” Anybody of you know? Please enlighten me.
Here’s one of my favorite quotes from the movie:
This is my place of zen and peace!
Hahaha!
I almost forgot, do you remember the part where the captain was supposed to call for air support and was talking a lousy call center agent? Well, you can really relate to it if you’ve seen the spoof in Call Center Movie. ;)
Thanks for visiting!

3when I went to tagbilaran city, I was confused on what to watch, this movie or the diehard 4.0. i took time thinking of it and finally decided to watch the latter.

5hahahah… i like the part where the autobots where “hiding” from sam’s parents? [i]little[/i] things like optimus prime is hiding in front of their yard.
question: why do the autobots machine forms are so “peaceful” unlike the decepticons. they have f12, a police car, a tank, a construction car, and a stereo machine. but with the autobots, they only have an ambulance, a porche, a chevrolet and a big truck. so unfair…. i hope optimus will copy a carrier.
nashe: project nako ba tabangi ko.. unsa tong rfid nga imong giingon? sayon ra na himuon? or available na na sa market? basin mahal sad na…. magpa sponsor nlang ko nimo… hehehe

SELaplana, you should have watched both on the big screen. Hehe
alfredo, prices are worth it, i guess. Cinemas here are way better than in CdO. Hehe
jikjik, yup. I liked that part too. ;) Actually, I have a lot of questions and reactions about the movie. I just wasn’t able to post it all here. Hehe

9Yeah the movie was really great. I think the good thing about it is that the viewers didn’t expect much about it and when they had the chance to watch the film, they were pleased.
So, you’re now in Manila? Where are you working? Kuya, lisud man ang ECE oi! Dili ko ganahan ug EnergyCon pati Electronics. hehe. Di ba pareho lang ang Xavier ug AdDU ug curriculum?

Yup. I’m in Makati right now.
Uhmm. I think they have the same curriculum. Just study hard, you can do it. ;)
