Journal 004: More Than Meets--Oh, You Get It!
Excited"Fate rarely calls upon us at a moment of our choosing." ~Optimus Prime
"My father was a wheel! The first wheel! And do you know what he transformed into? Nothing!" ~Jetfire
I just got back from seeing Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen with
, and goddamn did we have fun. I planned on doing another review, but I don't want to spoil the film for the those who haven't seen it. I will say this though; It was much better than the first movie, the action was easier to follow, and Optimus Prime went up 5 levels on the bad-ass meter. Instead of reviewing the entire movie, I'm gonna rank my favorite fights. Of course, there will be a few spoilers, so don't read it if you don't want to ruin it for yourself. For those sticking around, the following 5 battles will be ranked from lowest to highest:#5: Mudflap & Skids vs Devastator
As soon as Devastator is formed, he immediately begins to destroy everything. He decides to open his mouth and suck up the civilians, and Mudflap along with them. Thinking he's dead, he goes after Simmons and Leo, but, amazingly, Mudflap busts out of its face! After escaping, the Twins team up, using Devastator's contraptions hanging from its body and help deal some damage to the beast, while still adding some humor to the scene. While the scene was short and although they didn't destroy Devastator, it showed that Mudflap and Skids can prove their worth as fighters.
#4: Sideswipe vs Sideways
At the beginning, the Autobots are on a mission after several Decepticon signals are detected and in comes Sideswipe (who is not voiced by Jason Griffith), who chases after Sideways, who does not last long. After 'Swipe jumps over and launches one of his blades into 'Ways, he lands grabs his blade back and cuts Sideways in half, completely down the middle. Again, the fight was short, but it shows what the side characters can do. Also because Sideswipe uses his wheels as roller skates. That's just bitchin'.
#3: Bumblebee vs Rampage & Ravage
When the Decepticon's army begins to grow and mobilize, Sam's parents are captured by Rampage, an orange construction vehicle. Using his mom and dad, Rampage uses them as bait to get the Matrix of Leadership from Sam. Unknown to him, Bumblebee is waiting to ambush him. He jumps on his back and beats the living shit out of Rampage. He then proceeds to rip off his arms and shoots Rampage in the back of the head, and Ravage jumps in, clawing at Bumblebee's Battle Mask, but also gets defeated, when Bumblebee takes his tail and rips out Ravage's spine. Even though neither of them didn't have a chance, it was a good fight.
#2: Optimus Prime vs Megatron, Starscream, & Grindor
After Megatron is revived by the stolen AllSpark shard, he goes after Sam when he begins seeing Cybertronian symbols. When the Autobots come to rescue Sam, Mikayla, and Leo after getting captured, Optimus takes Sam and Megatron chases after, in his new tank form nonetheless. Optimus Prime then begins fighting Megatron in a one-on-one duel. After a grueling fight, Starscream and Grindor (who is basically Blackout with a longer face) arrive to aid their leader. After Optimus puts up one hell of a fucking fight, including when he uses his double flame hooks to rip Grindor's face apart by catching the hooks in his eye sockets, and tearing off Starscream's arm and beats him with it, Megatron impales Optimus from behind, killing him. While Optimus fell during that battle, he kicked some major ass.
#1: Ultimate Prime vs Megatron & The Fallen
Okay, this was way too obvious. But it was fucking amazing. Optimus Prime became the biggest bad-ass in the history of all-time in this movie. No one can top him. After Jetfire uses his spark to combine with Optimus at the cost of his life, Optimus Prime becomes strong enough to take on The Fallen and Megatron at once. He blasts the fuck out of Megatron, sending him through walls, which also shows that the Transformers do not care for ancient architecture. Probably being fed up with The Fallen's dickery, he goes after him and decides to deliver the best robotic ass-whuppin' I've ever seen. He tears him apart, and rips his face off and stabs his skull with his own spear. When The Fallen dies, Prime utters the best motherfucking line, "I rise and you fall." Unfortunately, all of Jetfire's armor was gone by the time the fight finished. After getting their asses majorly kicked, Megatron and Starscream retreat. It was much more satisfying than the showdown from the first film. Who am I kidding? HOLY SHIT! THIS FIGHT WAS FUCKING AMAZING! I LOVED IT!
While many loved the movie, critics treated it like it was the spawn of Satan. They say every other shot is Megan Fox's breasts, yet there were none. NONE. No Megan Fox tits. One shot of her ass, which was filmed quite well. Overall, I fucking loved the fucking shit out of this movie, and I'll watch the fuck out of it when it's released on DVD. Oh, remember Barricade? WHERE THE FUCK WAS HE?!"
Please comment on your thoughts on my choices or the movie in general.
