College, Robots, and Teenager/Transformer Hybrids? Huh? What?

Alright, so according to Blogger, I haven't written a blog post since April 5. OOPS! Anyway, have no fear because The Movie Buff has returned with the first of several new posts, WOO! With that being said, lets begin shall we.

Just days ago, the newest (and probably final) trailer for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen made its way online. I remember my initial excitement when I found that out. I practically demanded that my friend open it up on his computer so I can watch it. He could not care less since he is not a Transformers fan (freak...you know who you are =p) but that is besides the point. Anyway, he opened up and it began to play as I had a huge smile on my face. I saw Bumblebee (WOO!), Shia (WOO!), Megan Fox (WOO!) and others I didn't care as much about (...!).

As the trailer played out, I was kinda like uhh whats going on here. Apparently there is still a piece of the Allspark left from the first movie and some information gets etched into Sam Witwicky's (Shia LaBeouf) brain and he goes a little crazy. Blah Blah trailer plays on and Megatron is brought back to life somehow and wants whats in Sam's head. Now, after writing that I am thinking that they could have done much better than a somewhat repeat of the original story. Original: Megatron wants a pair of glasses that explain the location of the Allspark; Sequel: Megatron wants the information thats in Sam's head that probably explains the location of something else, or something of that nature. Megatron=mad greedy if you think about it. You don't HAVE to take over the world, Megatron. Last time you tried they pretty much killed you and dumped you into the ocean. Maybe you should retire to a nice junkyard somewhere.

Towards the end of the trailer, Sam picks something up and it seems really dramatic like something big was about to go down. I really really really hope its not what I read a while back about Sam somehow becoming a transformer-human hybrid thing himself. That is just dumb. Cool thought, but pretty stupid to make the human kid become a robot. Either way, I have no doubt in my mind that I'm gonna love this movie even just for the fact that its Transformers and is crazy action packed as you can see in the trailer below. Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen hits theater June 24....aka next month, WOOHOO!
