Went and saw this last night, I thought it was the best movie I've seen in ages. Audience loved it everyone was cheerin and clapping at the end and a part in the middle too. Gets into the action right at the start of the movie, no boring bits!

What else could ya want, cool robots, big guns, cute girls and some sick action.

Big 5 stars for me if you liked Transformers when you were a kid then go see it.. not childish or anything at all it was awesome!!

Yer wasnt bad it hought they did a good job by not really showing you "everything" (no full screen shots of robots walking about) which lets the audience use their imagination a bit. Not really what id expect from Bay at all. I did however crack up when all of a sudden the ac-130 appears out of nowhere in Qatar, us has like 12 of those, i think the chances of one being in the area would be minimal. yes im one of those technocrats.

all in all much better than i expected but dont think it deserved its M rating.

5/5 top movie, very good looking girl :) real funny as well. Apparently (according to the express) there were 39,000 attempts at hacking the Industrial Light and Magic which is the lucas owned company responsible for movie effects etc because fans didn't like Michael Bay...lol 39,000 :)

i saw transformers on sunday arvo and i havent watched the old transformers movie so i didnt really know what the story line was - but i really liked it.

i thought it had the perfect balance of cars and romance and comedy whilst still being about robots from out of space.

Seen a white R32 around ellenbrook with an Autobot sticker on the fuel lid.

Also a red S2000 with a few autobot stickers on it with the plates Transformer or something similar.....thats just going a bit too far

was a good flick, hope they make a 2nd.

they stuck to some of the historical story and added some license. Also like how they linked some of the stuff in.

ie bumble bee parking next to a yellow VW, plus he had a bumble bee air freshener.

effacts were awesome (but thats what you expect from lucas arts)

ahh but the idea is to go into it seeing it for what it is not for the brilliance of the original that they can never better

personally by moving away from the original plots they made it easier to watch as a stand alone feature tho if you looked closely there were plenty of references back to the cartoon series

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
