Actually, building some fully-working lifesize transformers would be really cool!
I want a pet Jazz :)

My freind worked at "DragonCon" or something....
They had a life-size Optimus Prime, and they said, by next year..it will be fully transformable.
This will either be the coolest thing ever...or the gayest.
In theory yes...
...but I simply cannot visualize them NOT messing up something like this to a stupifying degree.

The fully-working, lifesize transformers will be ceased and used by the military.

You need to go back and watch some of those old shows. The original The Movie only had a little gayness in it, but still. And oddly, it is the kind of gay + nonsense that Mike has made his career in. If he's a true fan and paints in the corners it might even be perfect. If he's just one of the producers trying to turn a nostalgic property over into quick cash, nothing can save it.

The game was rubbish. Holy crapk, the original episodes were soooo good. I bet they'll do a Thunderbirds to it and make it into a shitty for kids remake.
Someone should hire a bunch of Japanese manga artists to make a full length animated old-school transformers movie. That'd be sweet.

That really was the worst idea I've ever heard in my entire life.
Still, I think the "case of the mondays" woman was worse...

Heh.
Ehh... My dad thought his Jump To Conclusions mat was a great idea. Why? We may never know...

If they mess it up, we must track them down, duct tape them to a chair, and tape their eyes open, and make them watch Transformers, over and over, point out each and every thing they mutilated in the movie. *nods*

I want a pet Jazz :)Dirge was one of my favourites. But pet-wise, it's got to be Ravage. Trouble is, with audio tapes being, as they are, just SO last millennium, he's going to have to learn to transform into an MP3 player, or something. :D
But if the movie's as good as the Citroen advert, which I've heard was a testbed for the CGI methods to be used, it will kick posterior for effects alone.
There again, we fans were desperately badly let down with Thunderbirds. Kids save the world, yeah... It could've been so much more if it had been updated and made a bit more adult. After all, isn't the major fan base in its thirties and forties now? I know I am...!

Screw Transformers, someone needs to make a (good!) live-action Macross movie. :D
I hear they're also making a live-action Evangelion movie. I'm going to go see it, just so I can, right in the middle of the film, run up and puke on the projector screen.
