Hmm maybe i'll wait after the 3rd movie

FEI, Wal-Mart is supposedto have the IMAX version as an exclusive release.  Meaning that it will aspect ratio change on the fly during the IMAX scenes ala The Dark Knight.

Mega Collection, means that a 4 disc Collection ? In others words the 2 dis SE of the movies.

Salvation and GI joe is not worse then Transformers 2. At least those didn't have robot testicles and a return of 2 jar jar binks+ mini robot binks

Yes Transformers 2 WAS VERY BAD!

reminds me of Harry Potter. they make this awesome box set in a really nice box with a ton of little goodies and things but it only has the first 5 movies. since this was a series they knew from DAY ONE would be 7 movies (at the time, its of course now 8 movies). even if i was a huge fan i wouldnt have bought that.

so at least in this case, its just a lame little case that holds the two movies. but yeah its even affecting tv releases because i saw a collection of the first 5 seasons of The Office.

i guess some people always fall for it so they'll keep doing this but its just sad and a waste.

Any news on whether the 2 movie collection includes just the movie discs or the special features and stuff?

I enjoyed Transformers a lot and watch it quite often. Revenge of the Fallen was not as good, but was still enjoyable. Of all the big movies that were critically trashed this summer, I think G.I.Joe was the most disappointing. Everything looked fake and what didn't look fake looked exactly like what it was- a set. Only the Paris sequence had some excitement. T4 was ok. I can't understand the slamming Bale got for the movie. I thought he was ok. Wolverine was pretty enjoyable as well, but that could be cos I am not a Marvel man and don't follow X-Men comics.

I will buy Transformers 2. That is the only one I will surely buy. It will look great in Blu. I am on the fence about T4. Maybe I'll watch it once more to decide whether to buy it or not. G.I. Joe and Wolverine I will not be picking up.

Transformers was the one movie that showed me the real difference between full screen and widescreen. I saw it first in full screen and then later in widescreen and the difference is just phenomenal. I never buy full screen movies, but the library I borrow from had only the full screen version. I ended up buying the Blu-ray and oh man, even on a standard def. TV, let alone a HDTV, the aspect ratio shows so much more and you can actually make out what is going on in the climax fight.

This competes with Night at the Museum 2 as the worst f**king movie i've seen all year.

Even T4 was a let down...

I don't understand how people thought this would be better than the first? After all the hoopla of the stuff coming out of the publicity machine before this movie came out, it was lending itself to become less than the original plot wise but with more CGI effects than the first one.
I will get it mainly for robots beating up robots, nothing really more and hopefully my new HD projector will get a work out.

For people to say it is the worse movie ever then they should get out and see more movies - the IMDB bottom 250 list is a great place to start....

No, if GI Joe gets this many comments than everyone should be very sad. In fact we should start a group because their planning sequels.

On the positive side for GI Joe, though.....you could hardly say it was boring or dragged out (unlike Transformers 2), and it had more entertainment value than this, but just barely.

You're joking right? GI Joe came across like it was written by a group of 6 years put together by Hasbro, with nothing positive to offer.

Fullscreen is so 1990s, Paramount's been doing OAR-only releases since 2008. The first TF movie was in widescreen only too.

Paramount/Dreamworks where's the fullscreen edition?

most of the posts are negative and i find that funny actually. if i disliked this movie or even hated it even half as much as all these people claim they do, i wouldnt have made one comment much less even read anything about it.

its always funny to see the people who didnt like a movie make the bigger deal out of it.  but least its civilised hating here compared to most places *coughaicncough*

With the exception of gratuitous dog humping and the 'Sluticon', this movie was pretty entertaining right up to the point where

Spoiler Optimus Prime is "killed",
then it all went down hill from there.

I'm buying 5 copies of this. Blockbuster, Rogers, Wal-Mart, HMV and Future Shop here I come!!

I don't care about this c**p, where the F is the Terminator Salvation news?!

I meant the "select scenes shot with IMAX cameras" aspect -- not the simultaneous "in theaters and IMAX" bit.

Andy wrote: ...I'm ashamed that I contributed to its insane success.  

I completely agree.

Well said.

I stand by what I say. I'd rather watch "Batman & Robin" than having my eyes ravaged by "Transformers 2" again.

If you guys like it so much, then buy the DVD or Blu-ray. I'm not stopping you, I'm just putting my feelings out about it.

crashfellow wrote: the problem is the majority of people who wanted to see these films are former transformers fans.

that's where you're wrong. if the majority of those seeing this movie or even the first were the fans, they wouldnt have even made a quarter of the money that they did eventually make.

the fans are a very small minority. these movies were successful because of the non fans, the "average joe" type people. and the makers knew this so for better or for worse they made a movie they hoped would appeal to everyone. hence some of the humor and focus on non Transformers.

movies dont make this sorta money with only fan support. and that goes back to my earlier joke about the "money doesnt equal good" thing. yes its true that a movie isn't good simply because its a huge box office success...but at the same time movies make that sort of money because people saw it multiple times, word of mouth spread.

so a movie being a box office hit isn't automatically good because everyone has their own idea of what is good or bad. but when they make this sorta money, obviously those who disliked it are a very small minority. thats not to say their opinion isnt valid but some act like their opinion is fact and get offended that people actually enjoyed it or even insult those who did.

there are many movies i hate, many that i'm in the minority of hating but i dont get upset or attack those who liked it. i think thats the biggest problem with the so called "haters" on the internet when it comes to movies or tv. people dont care if they hate something and express that, its those who feel the need to attack the people who dont share in their awesome and perfect opinions.

wow i babbled a lot for something i was planning to be a 3 line comment at most. sorry kiddies.

I do, and while you guys may scoff at it -- "Transformers 2" handily beats down all the Uwe Boll movies and "Batman & Robin" in terms of awfulness. Some movies are the fun kind of bad (the kind you heckle and throw popcorn at) like B&R, but TF-2 was deadly dull. I mean, by the time it ended I couldn't get to the exit doors fast enough.

And second, Bay's a hack. He's been that way for a decade -- he even jumped on the IMAX bandwagon when he heard about the runaway success of "The Dark Knight" (which is a far superior and entertaining work).

How odd... never thought anything could be c**ppier then the movie itself... appears the cover has proved me wrong.

The fact is the movie isn't horrible.. it's not great, but it's that weird middle ground where you feel somewhat offended that it wasn't better.

The amount of stupid, infantile childish humour in the movie aimed it straight at the teen/child/idiot market... the problem is the majority of people who wanted to see these films are former transformers fans.

Try to remember Michael Bay. Kids are off watching Twilight.. maybe aim this film at fans, and you won't get the awful backlash!

The only sad part is how much money this movie bad.. it doesn't reflect how bad it was.

People. If you keep going to bad movie's, they'll keep making bad movies.

This is the most underrated film ever. Call me an idiot, but I admit I loved every minute of this film. Of course it wasn't as good as Inglourious Basterds or District 9, but I was highly entertained. The special effects were the best I've seen, awesome action sequences, and a great plot. Was everybody in a bad mood when the film was out? This is THE most underrated film ever. Will Netflix the BD.

Hopefully Target will put out more neat transforming cases with this release.

That cover for the 1 Disc Edition is just wrong. And yes Wolverine is Citizen Kane compared to this... thing.

I enjoyed the first film and enjoyed this one equally.  Great action, great effects, lackluster plot.  That describes both films, but they are a blast.  No one can deny that.  Definitely getting this on Blu.

All the people calling this the worst movie of all time, need to watch more movies.It's no masterpiece, but by no means the worst movie ever...

Wolverine is Citizen Kane compared to Transformers 2? You people are NUTS! Both are same level of Hollywood mainstream mediocre or less. Worst films of Summer 09 - Anything starring the Wayans.

Racist humor?

What?  Are we all 12?  Grow up people, relax and get a sense of humor.  

Mindnumbingly awful film.  Just a c**ppy summer movie season period.

the extras are produced by the DVD producer of Ridley Scott's films and the nine disc Alien set.  so I know the extras will be fantastic.

So, question, does this come with a digital copy?  Is it just me, or is Paramount about the only studio that does not do digital copies with their movies?

Not the best movie ever. I liked it more then Wolverine. I'll get it on Blu ray for my collection.

Definitely not the most disappointing summer blockbuster this summer.  That honor goes to Terminator.  IMO, this movie was fun despite some clunky storytelling and awful attempts at comedy.  Some good action scenes and good special effects and I enjoyed the final 30 minutes.  So I will definitely get the 2-disc edition.  As long as Peter Cullen plays Prime, I'm there.

I am so completely easy to please on this kind of movie.  Show me all the special effects and explosions, and I'm sold.  All I want is for the c**p story-telling to not get in the way.  Well, somehow the c**p story-telling was big enough to overshadow some really massive robots and sweet actions scenes (Optimus' big dramatic fight in the middle come to mind).  It takes some effort to make a movie this disjointed, with a scatterbrained plot.  I don't know how even bad writers could have so much trouble tying a narrative together.  Bay needed like a dozen MaGuffins to keep the plot going.  On his worst day, George Lucas (who has had some bad days) could still manage with just one.

Really quite awful, and yet I'll still buy the Blu-Ray.  My TV is a Samsung LCD, and its about the size of those aircraft carriers that get destroyed early on, so even if the movie is bad the TV deserves a chance to display the effects.

Definitely NOT the worst movie of the summer or of the year......but still somewhat disappointing. While it had some great moments here and there, the story was ridiculously muddled, as if they were still trying to make it up as they went along. They could have easily trimmed about 25 minutes from this and it would have been fine. NOTE TO MICHAEL BAY: Just because you had Sam's mom swear a few times, it doesn't mean it's funny.

You know. A lot of fans of the first "Transformers" film will give high praise to the new "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen." Guess what? I'm not one of them.

Seriously, this movie totally sucks. It's awful, it's a mess and it's the worst movie of all-time. I can't believe why Michael Bay wanted to make this and he's making a third film. This movie is absolute garbage.

SO, OH YEAH!!! A HUGE PASS!!!!

Oh and btw...where's "Night at the Museum 2?"

What a terribly disappointing film after the dumb fun that was the first one.  I know they wanted to make this one "bigger and better" but apparently that meant making it far more dumb and stupid and the jokes far more horrendous.  There were parts that I liked, mainly the forest fight and some of the finale, so I'll probably grab the blu-ray at some point for that.  The extra features ought to be pretty damn good, maybe even better than the movie!  I do really like the artwork this time though, not as plain as the first movie's special edition.    

Overall a good companion piece to 1st

Saw it in real IMAX. The quality of the IMAX filmed portions was incredible! I got vertigo on some of the flyover shots in Egypt.

Terrible story and acting, but awesome action, effects, and sound design.

This will be my new blu demo disc. Bring on the DTS-MA.

I hated every second of this movie.

It made me realise something: I'm not a child any more.

Then again, maybe it's just utterly terrible and my age has nothing to do with it.

P.S. Credit where credit is due: It's a gorgeous cover.

One word: NO.  Absolutely terrible film that not even the special effects could save.  Forget this, where's The Hangover?!?!

Loved it. Will get on Blu.

F**K THE GO-BOTS. Bring on The Hangover.

Loved this movie SO much. Saw it twice in theaters (both on opening day) and then caught it in IMAX...it was totally mind-blowing. Can't wait to own the DVD.

I agree on being the WORST blockbuster summer movie, anything that saves this movie was and is its mighty impressive CGI/Special Effects. Its wonderful effects on Blu-ray and a heavy DTS-HD track are my only priority on picking this up, literally.

Someday, I might pick this up out of a DVD bargain bin. The special effects were great, but I thought the juvenile humor severely crippled the overall feel of the film.
