Spotted Donnan last night in the lineup to see Trans'(I was off to see Ocean's 13). One would assume he loved it!

I'm looking forward to Saturday night's little gathering even more,now I've read the last few posts!!

It's very rare that a movie absolutely blows me away, and this one did it in style

It's quite something when a 2.5 hour movie seems like 5 minutes, a lot of it is actually piss funny too.

As Frink said, definetly going to see it again. Next time not in the front row though.

Freakin awesome! I would be hapy to see that again.

The only down side is that now i like american muscle cars and their thumping v8s.

Michael Bay has done well (even if he couldn't help but add in the love story). Heaps better than Pear Harbour!

Yeah, I must admit I was a bit worried when I heard Michael Bay was doing it (Because of Pearl Harbour), but my fears were not to be realised!

You can actually see a bit of the Bad Boys movies in Transformers, and I LOVED Bad Boys 2

Movie was dam fine except for the annoying banter between the family and the parts with the Sector 7 douche. Otherwise was probably the best movie i've seen all year.

Agree with donnan on the V8's, was sitting there wishing my car sounded like the camaro... if only

was sitting there wishing my car sounded like the camaro... if only

I'd have to disagree, I reckon Bruticus (The police Mustang) was just about the tuffest sounding car there, especially in the bit at the start where he's shoving forward at Witwicky threatening to run him over

less spoilage for jayce etc...

i just went to see it, was awesome, as a fan pretty much since i was born i thought it was great. didnt follow the canon story line, but it was something different and it worked. i was worried ol mike would screw it up, but it was awesome.

i was watching ET this arvo and they had 2 people who produced it, cant remember if it was michael bay, but they asked if there will be a sequel and they said its already being worked on. not sure if theyre working on it, but im sure they are actually going to make a sequel.

Awesome movie, one of the best ive seen in a few years. 10/10

Might see it again at the theatre, or might just wait for a DVDrip. but will definetly buy on DVD.

EDIT: Just heard that 2 sequels have been confirmed, but not 100% sure on the authenticity... heres the article:

"On May 30, 2007, Dreamworks greenlit two more sequels. Shia LaBeouf, Megan Fox and Peter Cullen have signed on for the sequels, while Michael Bay has not signed on to direct, saying "I'm trying to keep some leverage for the negotiations." Writers Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman are undecided but may not return because "we want to have a reason to do it, not just say, it's a business, it's a franchise, we're going to go do the second one because that's what we do and we're going to get the big money," and Star Trek by the way is taking up kind of all of our time."

Soundwave is intended to be a new major character in the sequels, with his presence allowing a proper introduction of mass-shifting. Producer Tom DeSanto has "a very cool idea on how to introduce the Dinobots and Constructicons." Producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura felt production would be quicker as the design aesthetics had been worked out. If he decides to helm a sequel, Bay may put in an aircraft carrier character, an idea which was previously too expensive for the first film"

I didnt even know this hadnt been released in america yet... its rare that we get something first... but with the amount of $$$ they rake in from the US release im sure theyll be more than funded for the next film (or 2?)

Seeing that the line on opening night was huge, and I'm expecting similar as news spreads on how good this movie is, I'll be getting there early for a place in the que. I'd suggest people do similar, as most waiting Trans' Fans (different from a Trannie Fanny, I believe) will get a bit p1ssy if the group storm forward and claim a spot near the front held by one person...

See you there!!

    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
