It's quite possible that Kaworu did what Steel Angel and I did. He went and saw it at Anime Expo.
OTAKUS RULE!!!

I was thinking about seeing it, but I saw 1408 instead. I'll probably wait until it comes out on DVD.

Well that what happens when your working on getting married ^_^ (unless i'm already late and you did already if not when is the wedding?) heh but seriously I had my doubts when I first heard they was making a Transformer's movie....(some things from childhood made into movies now well...I wouldn't exactly say they're good) -_- kind of made me hesitant a bit but seeing the previews for it really got me pumped to see it now.

Actually it is Oct 18th '08 I understand the movie is going to be quite a bit different but I had the distinct advantage over you kiddies to grow up in the glory days of when these toys were at their prime....and more importantly...when they were original/first made. GiJoes, Transformers, etc.....thats what I grew up w/ You poor kids got what? PowerRangers and crap like that? Cheap knock offs of what I played w/

Yep...I had a couple variations of bumblebee. He was yellow...VW Bug My Transformers knowledge is really hazy, but I believe Bumblebee was killed...he like died in some big battle and was brought back to life as a new character? Possibly being HotShot? by the way Inu, I was drinkin beers before you were even an itch in your daddy's pants!

No cons? Awe, that's a shame. We got in for free. It was fun to watch, if for nothing else, the crowd reactions. I had no idea how fun a movie could be when the audience is crammed with Anime Fans.

Transformers is the greatest action movie since T2. See it, no excuses.

It was good, but I wouldn't go that far. I though the Jason Bourne series mad for better action movies.

I saw the preview for the third one of those movies. Looks okay, more of the same. Probably would be more excited if I followed the series.

Kept very true to the series, had a nice blend of romance/comedy. Good action sequences, however literally the first half of the movie (IE- Bumblebee vs Barricade) you couldn't see the battle. It was a huge blur until the later sequences when they put them in slow motion. Thats my only complain. And that one of my favorite all-time characters dies in it. (Jazz)

Yes, but I was happy with the voice acting. To have the original Optimus voice Prime in the movie was great. And Megatron's voice actor (The guy who played Agent Smith in the Matrix and Elrond in LotR) just has that good ability to play evil or chilling voices. Kind of like James Earl Jones doing Vader. And speaking of James Earl Jones, they are currently thinking of having him voice Unicon in the Transformers sequel.
