Bumblebee vs. Soundwave was a KICK ASS idea! Plus I spotted Crowbar in the building behind the pillar? I might be mistaken.

Give me that Deluxe Soundwave, NOW! NOW!!!!!

Thinking that is Topspin on the ground. Looks like Wheeljack in the back holding the gun...but...whats up with Soundwave? Doesnt really look like he is trying to fight Bumblebee. Looks more like a "come on, lets go" gesture. Either that or a really bad sneak attack on Soundwave's part.

Maybe, but if it was, if he still had his police car alternate mode, there would be windows on his back, Police Doors on his arms, wheels in his hands, and he would have a different head. I can see how you got his head confused. Otherwise that's either some random drone or Crowbar.

Nope, nevermind. Think that is a drone behind Bumblebee instead of Wheeljack. You can see another one looking the same between him and Soundwave. Still interesting though to why they arent trying to shoot down Bumblebee.

TOO...MUCH...AWESOMENESS... :shock: :BOOM:

Anyway, Soundwave looks extremely cool. I want his deluxe!
And I hope that isn't Topspin dead on the ground...I don't want him to die!

If this is like the comic/novel, they're wearing statis-cuffs. It looks like they are, to me it seems that his hands are together. That explains why Wheeljack/Topspin is not helping Bumblebee. Bumblebee is free because Soundwave is killing them one by one while the others watch.

the scene with soundwave and bumblebee looks like the same in the book.
its a sad scene imo.
And yes it is topsin on the ground.

And this further proves that this one will be THE one. This will be the best out of all of them. So far, everything is jibing with the novel and I've said it before and I'll say it again. It really is terrific, and you're in for a real treat.

This one might even win over some of the G1 crowd that hadn't been before.

Reading the novel,it is Mirage's corpse that Soundwave pushes Bumblebee onto and uses to torment him, not Topspin's. In the novel, Topspin actually survives, they must change character deaths in the film.

I have a feeling Barricade is an after thought by the animators. Kind of like Bonecrusher showing up in the wideshot during the decepticon arrivals for the final fight in ROTF.

I don't recall any set pictures of the Saleen Police car on set. Did anyone see it around?
Re: Iridescent Dark Of The Moon Trailer - New Footage (1241404)

Finally we see Soundwave ,and Barricade is back! I still want to see Megatron though...

I can't wait for this. This is going to be deep. I can't wait to see silverbolt :BOT: If that is wheeljack Bumblebee is satnding next to then that is almost the same kind of scene in the transformers movie 1986 when Arcee stands in front of dead wheeljack! Just for the hell of it all the crap that is going on for my team I have one thing to say: FICKELL and the BUCKEYES LIGHT OUR DARKEST OUR! Go Buckeyes

The Saleen Police car was "retired". That shot of Barricade at the :54 to :56 second marks was probably just an "easter egg" and likely one of many throughout the movie since this is the final one. There is probably going of be a ton of drone appearances like Bonecrusher in RotF. I wouldn't be surprised to see some of the Constructicon components in the background at some point.

What is really surprising me is that nobody is actually commenting on the song. There have been a number of people somewhat frustrated that Iridescent got picked instead of Burning in the Skies or Waiting for the End. I'm curious to see what they have to say now that we actually have movie footage going along with the song. I still maintain that Iridescent was the better choice although the Soundtrack version is slightly more up-tempo than the version on A Thousand Suns. (just bought the soundtrack this evening and all I can say is "HOLY S*** IT IS AWESOME!")

One of the best yet, right after the Optimus Falcon Punch one.
SoundWave looked awesome, though I was wondering why he was just casually pulling BumbleBee away....
Re: Iridescent Dark Of The Moon Trailer - New Footage (1241515)
Posted by brbolin on June 17th, 2011 @ 7:25am CDT
Could it possibly be Sideswipe pulling Bumblebee away as in, "c'mon, we've gotta go. There's nothing more we can do here to help him"?

For a Michael Bay film (and being Transformers), I love how all the action shots are crystal clear and sharp when compared the previous 2. :D

Why is this considered a spoiler, a spoiler would be like EXAMPLE: Optimus dies or Bumblebee kills soundwave or Megs and Shcokwave fight

Also, whatever happened to that big orange jeep? was that just a promotional thing?
I...I Don't remember :-(
Still, SOUNDWAVE!!!
Shouldnt he be bigger though? Satilites are huge, even though he scanned a mercedes, well, he just downsized himself 20X I guess....

That's not Topspin or Mirage...

That's Wheeljack, Wheeljackdies in the first encounter with Soundwave. It's later on when Soundwave takes over control of the Autobotsand Be-heads Miragefor no reason but by the request of Patrick Dempsy's character.

All the Wreckerssurvive.

You can tell it's 100% Wheeljack or "Que" by the Fender vent on the side of him, that's a Mercedes.

Soundwave seems a little like a softie I really hope bumblebee doesn't disgracefully kick his ass like he does with almost every decepticon he goes up against....if that happens I will leave the theatre :evil:

Wrong Wrecker, that was Leadfoot.

What I thinks happened is that Wheeljack will die in the same place Mirage died in the comic, being killed by Soundwave rather than nameless drones. Mirage will probably die like he did in the novel, having his head torn of by Starscream.
