"Transformers 2" is Longer on IMAX

Posted: June 8th, 2009 by WorstPreviews.com Staff
Transformers 2 is Longer on IMAXSubmit Comment
Michael Bay posted a message on his official forum about "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen," including the status, the IMAX cut and what to expect. Here is what he had to say:

"It has been a long hard road, but really fun one to travel. What you will notice that is strikingly different than Transformers 1, is the level of animation detail. The robot characters (42 in all), you really can feel empathy for them. What is also very different is the sheer scale of the movie. We have been very tight holding back much of the best imagery in commercials and trailers.

The way to see this movie is on IMAX. Never before has there been 4k rendered character animation shot on full IMAX 70 mm film. This is a first and the results are stunning. You will see Optimus Prime in a few shots where he is actually perfectly to scale on the IMAX 50 foot tall screens.

For IMAX, I created a slightly longer cut with more robot fighting. Four scenes were shot on IMAX cameras so the screen will fill the full IMAX screen for these scenes.

So will this go for the the fake IMAX theaters as well? And this is one more reason I hate Bay, what kind or prick director would screw over fans that don't have an IMAX theater available?

I bet the IMAX people are putting money into the movie so he would do this. Because this is a good/dirty way to get new people to watch movies in an IMAX theater, like me, never been there never really wanted to, but I want to see as many giant robot battles onscreen as I can so they got me... dickheads.

I'm there! Not because Transformers is deep but because these robots need room to breath.

I hope Megan Fox's statements she made, as well as the ones she made in GQ UK, are bullshit. Because who would piss away a good career after being awarded 10 movie deals after a breakout role in "Transformers". And so far, in "T2", she seems to be stepping in with good intentions. I suggest that she'd not talk about her hate for Scarlet Johannson, her work ethic, her bisexual tendencies, and her promiscuity. Because that's the road to self-destruction and drugs.

I think I'll save the money until some sort of authority is put in place to authenticate REAL IMAX locations...CG robots are CG robots-no matter the size of the friggin screen. Nolan didnt rip his audience off like this.

They really think were so stupid to think that IMAX video sizes cant be scaled down to normal theatrical screens...Its an aspect ratio people- pure and simple. You're an idiot if you buy what these studios are trying to sell.

Dark Knight had scenes filmed in IMAX and fit perfectly in standard theaters. They are just saying some straight up BS.
