    Seven,

    They had to change a few of the cars from different models because the directors/producers couldnt acquire the rights to use the proper model cars in the film. Bumbelebee for example...VW would absolutely not give them the rights to make him a VW bug, Why? Who knows. it could made them mucho $$$ in the long run IMO.

    the way it seemed, with bumblebee at least, they fused his character with that of Hot Rod.

    a lot also had to do with the size. if bumblebee was a beetle he would be so small. plus they made it work i think.

    devestator irked me too. they want to do the constructicons in the sequal. cant use devestator as the combined names.

    gmc i am sure payed a but load of money to be in it. i think they made the vehicles work well.

    It probably went like this: "Transformers? Cool! Sign me u.........Oh wait, it's Michael Bay! nevermind."

    Well, in the cartoon, he was the smallest autobot. About 12' tall.

    they wanted to make him bigger. jazz was the smallest in the movie next to the frenzy thing.

    i think they pulled them off all good.

    GreenCloud, yeah, except there wasn't actually any blood in the movie, despite times when the 'bots were flinging people around with enough force to split them in twain and cause all sorts of mess. And the NYC streets scenes should probably have had blood just running in large pools through them. PG13 rating an all though.

    Excellent movie, I really liked it. Too bad it wasn't the Beast Wars, though.

    BAH!

    The next movie most assuredly must have Unicron.

    If that happens, I'll be the first man ever to die in a theater as a result of Geekasm.
