It's such a waste to be wasted in the first place
I wanna taste the taste of being face to face with common grace
To meditate on the warmest dream
And when I walk alone, I listen to our secret theme

And here's why that footage is in there:

Gabriella Cedillo was injured September 1 during an on-set car crash in which a tow cable snapped and sliced through her skull. The accident left her with permanent brain damage and paralyzed on her left side.

i recognized that first scene during the movie ^_^ the island is one of my favourite movies and there was a 'making of' extra on the dvd that included said scene. they drove the car into the flying [read: actually stationary] sheet of metal

also, they reused a set somewhere in there that i saw as well, some abandoned old building

Oh yeah, I forgot to agree with these 3 Q+As:


Q: Did President Kennedy commission the moon landing to find the Transformers before or after he commissioned the X-Men to fight in the Cuban Missile Crisis?

A: President Kennedy made his speech about going to the moon to find the Transformers on May 25, 1961. President Kennedy commissioned the X-Men to fight in the Cuban Missile Crisis in late 1962.

Q: How many degrees has John F. Kennedy rotated in his grave? A full 360 degrees, or just partially?

A: President Kennedy is now 180 degrees through his grave rotation. After the box-office results for Transformers: Dark of the Moon are announced, he should have made it all the way around.

Q: The marketing campaign makes a big deal out of Shockwave being in this movie. Does Shockwave transform into a gun like the action figure and like he did in the cartoon?

A: No, Shockwave is the giant worm that you see in the trailer. Also, inexplicably, when Shockwave transforms into a robot, the worm still exists. Again, by that point in the movie, you won’t care.

I got the impression he was 'riding' the worm and never actually transformed on screen - unless I'm forgetting something

I have no clue about, well anything to do with this movie, or The Island, or very much about Michael Bay. Someone sent me that on youtube, so I thought I'd throw it in the thread.

I will say, on the surface, that sounds like a BS excuse, though.

And, the transformers do look pretty cool in that scene. Made it much better.

Do you think there will be a bunch of memes upcoming where people just throw transformers into every movie? Get on that, internet.

I had two issues with this movie. As a quick background, I am vewry open minded and will accept most things as 'feasible' in a movie, but only so far.

SPOILER ALERT~

When they are at the top of the broken building, and slide down the side, I'm fine with that. They would end up slightly above the break point on the left side of the building if the building is falling right. As the building falls, I get that they slide to the other side (now the bottom [right side] of the building). But how the hell do they suddenly get back to the top floor of the building? Once it collapses they are at the top floor and climb to the building that it fell onto...

Only other part that bothered me was when that ToS: profanity grappled onto starscream's eye and was being flung through the air, but was never actually whipped or had his arm torn off. I had to convince myself that the cable was somewhat elastic, or the device had some sort of adaptive tensioning.
Anyways, just me being a stickler for realistic in a movie full of alien robots.
