Filming, Special Effects & Music Of Transformers 2

by Michael Nielsen

The sequel of Transformers has been most anticipated since 2007, after the release of the first movie. This science fiction action movie busted the charts. The robots, the action, the adventure was a huge hit. The special effects of the film were truly applauded.

At the moment, with the opening of Transformers – Revenge of the Fallen just few days away, the audience wait for a superior degree of action. When Bay decided to direct the movie he tried to embrace all the scenes and characters that had to be edited in the last film. The sequel is considered to be darker, but still the young spectators have been kept in mind.

Los Angles, California was the primary site where filming started in May, 2008. The first scene was an action sequence shot at Bethlehem Steel, which was opened as a component of Shanghai. After one more scene the team continued to Philadelphia and shot at Exelon, The University of Pennsylvania, Drexel University, Eastern State Penitentiary, Fairmount Park, Philadelphia City Hall etcetera. They then shot at Princeton University. The crew shot at Holloman Air Force Base and White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico during September. Then they performed some shooting in New Mexico at Holloman Air Force Base and White Sands Missile Range, which is supposed to be Egypt.

The initial unit, in concert with Shia LaBeouf, shot in Egypt itself. The shoot was kept covert because of protection measurements. They shot a few scenes at the pyramids, where no shooting has been certified for 30 years. More scenes were shot in Paris and the closing scenes were shot on the aircraft carrier USS John C. Stennis on November 2, 2008. The best moment of the film was acted out in Egypt, and is said to be much simple to chase and comprehend.

Hasbro and Takara advised that merging of the robots must be the key focus of the movie. The varying modes were kept the same as before for the old robots. Bay engaged actual F-16 Fighting Falcon and tank fire for the filming of the battle. Many wonderful new cars camouflaged by the Autobot were provided by General Motors so that they would look prominent and vibrant on the screen.

Scott Farrar yet again become the visual effects administrator and used darker lighting and darker roles for the Decepticons. Michael Bay hunted for more close ups of the robots. The animators put in more action, hits, and mad war, with much more innovative and natural robots. The Transformers are more imaginative and inventive, which meant more work for the special effects supervisor.

Steve Jablonsky worked as the music director again. Linkin Park also worked with him on the music and gave one of their songs for the film. Jablonsky had previously utilized another of Linkin Park’s songs in the first movie. The special effects and music are major attractions for the upcoming sequel, and the audience expects it to be better than ever before.

Everything is new in Transformers -Revenge of the Fallen, apart from the director, producer, and the central cast; however no one is going to criticise that. No one can be better than that team. The team which gave the super hit Transformers is back with a further superb creation. Transformers – revenge of the fallen is entirely new, different, innovative, and unique.

Shia LaBeouf plays Sam Witwicky, and heads for the adventures, and Megan Fox plays Mikaela Banes, Sam’s girlfriend and like earlier Peter Cullen is giving the voice of Optimus Prime, however that’s the way it has to be. Hugo Weaving once again is voicing Megatron. Of course, the movie cannot continue without Bumblebee, which is voiced by Mark Ryan.

Well, that was old and basic, at present is the newest and most interesting part i.e. the character of The Fallen, who is told to be the most important villain and the Decepticon leader. The Fallen is aroused by some wicked Decepticons from the base of the sea where he had been laying for many years. Later on, he supports the Decepticons in their fight with the Autobots.

The Fallen was one of the first thirteen transformers. He was always hungry for power and authority and led Megatron into forming the Decepticons. He ruined and spoiled Megatron. Now that’s fascinating and thrilling, as there is a new villain who is much more potent, evil, and deceptive. The Fallen will direct the Decepticon troops and the war would be more brutal and ferocious.

There is a greater degree of struggle and fight. There are more robots, explosion, and adventure. A new degree of adrenaline rush. There is more action and exploration. New and different sites, diversity of location and scenario are major attractions of the movie. The movie is shot at various settings including Egypt, where the origins of transformers are said to be discovered.

A spoiler revealed a few new Autobots. Audi R8, a Decepticon is being chased by the Autobots. These Autobots consist of the few new transformers including an ice cream truck, which can be split known as The Twins, a hot pink cool motorbike Acree, who studs around daringly. Also there are Wheels, a go-kart, and a hot new Porsche known as Stinger, and the old Ironhide, the arms expert GMC truck from the first Transformers. The Autobots try to hunt down Audi R8 but fail to do so but anyways that revealed some electrifying things for us. Now this exciting scene would be fun to watch.

These new robots and locations add a new flavour to the movie. The plot is much more diverse and inspiring. The characters are more self-regulating and firm. Sam’s character has a new turn about as he is alone at his college with no friends and family and even Bumblebee. He appears unwilling to face the Decepticons at first but then joins hands with the Autobots as the humans might be at risk to get involved in the Transformer’s fight.

However now, let’s see how Autobots and humans hold up against The Fallen, and would they be able to thrive in saving themselves and Earth once again is still so far to be discovered.

Most of the Autobots are also making a comeback in the movie along with their marvellous leader, Optimus Prime. As it was in the Transformers, Optimus Prime is Peterbilt truck that has flame decals.

Optimus Prime is very proficient in what he does and he is the meticulous who has helped the Autobots right through the progression between Cybertron and the world. When it comes to begin a clash, Optimus Prime’s adored phrase is that one will stand, one will fall.

It is under the lively guidance of Optimus Prime that the Autobots appear as the brave robots from Cybertron during their fight to destroy the evil forces, which are the Decepticons. The Decepticons are trying to wipe out the home world of the Autobots and hence the whole universe also. It is Optimus Prime and his other Autobots who are dedicated to protect the Earth.

Regarding influence and cunningness, none stands corresponding to Optimus Prime. Optimus Prime transforms into a truck that is taxi over level nose and the cab of the truck becomes the android mode of Prime. Optimus Prime is the possessor of vast vigour and is also armed with a laser rifle. Optimus Prime also carries the Autobot Matrix of Leadership in his chest, which has been in the Autobot leaders for ages.

The truck, which is Optimus Prime, has hoardings that disengage and becomes a Combat Deck and ensue as transferable combat commands headquarter. It serves and gives briefing during exposure fights.

Facts About The Transformers 2 Character Megatron

by Michael Nielsen

Michael Bay mischievously hid the fact from us that Megatron was going to be a part of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Now that the fact has been disclosed, people are quite happy to know that they are actually going to see their favourite character in the upcoming film. People are gossiping around the world about how it is possible that dead Megatron came back in Transformers 2. Let us see how the team of this movie satisfies its audience in the sequel.

There are loads to put in writing regarding this character; however the first and primary thing is his role in the film. Megatron is a character from the Transformers. He is going to perform the main role, as always, as an evil leader of the Decepticons. He is going to be as authoritative and brutal as always.

Of course, his weapon encourages its callous character, which can annihilate the whole city with only one blast. History says that Megatron once had to face his own weapon because of a witty Autobot. His weapon can be even more caustic if Megatron wants to do that, but it never does it because that would leave him weaker and susceptible.

Resembling formerly seen Transformers, it is expected that we’ll witness Megatron in the identical appearance. He has always been a great leader with all leadership qualities combining to support him in formulating, and implementing his strategies lucratively. That presents his character as being a reasonable and premeditated commander of his force.

On watching Transformers 2, you may find him very aggressive and destructive, but the fact is he has always been rational in all his actions. He is not going to be chaotic in this movie.

An out of the ordinary thing that spectators will distinguish in this movie will be the arrogance and nobility Megatron shows to his enemy’s boss. He has always been like this, and also he carries this quality with his big-headed personality especially gracefully. Megatron wants to terminate his enemy with his own hands. This is the cause that he never lets anything else harm his enemy except himself.

Megatron could modify himself into a Walther P38 in the opening. That improved his skill to beat his opponent at the correct point. He also had an ability to resize himself according to his situation. Perhaps we can watch this amusing trick in the upcoming movie as well. A different weapon that can be used by Megatron is a barrel placed in his back. Also, he has got talent to fire from his body parts like eyes, head, and hands.

Nevertheless Megatron has the whole thing to perfection; still we cannot warranty his success in the battlefield. The reason behind this can be his overconfidence in his abilities that make him forget several especially essential points while fighting. Another thing that does not compliment his over all tactical behaviour is his pitiable behaviour with some of his companions. They have to abide by him, no matter what, even if they boast a better suggestion.

Facts About The Transformers 2 Character Jazz

by Michael Nielsen

There are rumours spreading among the transformers fans that Jazz is making a return in transformers: revenge of the fallen. As yet these are just rumours and there are no confirmed reports about this fact.

Jazz was in the initial transformers film and was torn apart by Megatron in the last battle. His pieces were given to Ratchet who could not fix him as his spark had washed out. Those who have seen the first transformers movie or have followed the small series or the comic they would simply remember Jazz. First Lieutenant Jazz is the smallest of the Autobots but is a happy go lucky kind of chap. He is also quite a conversationalist as compared to Ironhide and Prime. He may be the smallest robot but he does not run away from a fight. His only protest is that he gets stuck fighting with people who are closer to his size.

Jazz escorted Optimus Prime to earth in the earliest movie and he loves the place. But in the last part he dies heroically. Now that transformers 2 is about to be released people are questioning if Jazz will be reformed and will emerge in this movie. A number of fans believe that he will stay as a robot of the past whereas others consider that he will be recreated. After all robots can be recreated and if Megatron can re recreated then why not little Jazz.

The director and the writers are probably trying to throw interfering devotees away when they spread a rumour of the arrival of Jazz. Several followers have even said to have spotted a Pontiac Solstice on the sets of transformers 2. But there is no proof of Jazz recurring in this movie. There are fresh robots putting in their initial appearance in the movie. But the ambiguity of the return of Jazz remains puzzling.

Jazz transforms into a Pontiac Solstice and is the smallest and the talkative Autobot. He is brave and enters into battle with Megatron so that Bumblebee can escape. He gets hit by the Decepticons fusion gun and is distorted and gets killed. We know all this from the first movie and if he does returns in transformers 2 that will be something that the fans will enjoy.

Michael Bay says he leaked false information regarding the return of Jazz in transformers 2. He says he did this to lead the fans astray. Well in the comic series Ratchet rebuilds Jazz using the last of the ‘All Spark’. Now the Pontiac Solstice returns is what we will know on the movie premiere.

If Jazz does come back in transformers 2 he is going to act as a big character in it. He possibly will finish up getting destroyed in the ultimate battle again. If Jazz does not come again then that will be the last part of Jazz. Who knows he may rematerialize in a later sequel. Keep in mind there are keen fans who just feel affection for the transformers.

There are a lot of Jazz fans out there who will desire to observe Jazz returning. He is there in the comic book series so why destroy him in the show. Some fans liked Jazz and others despised him for the way he spoke. But no matter what may be the view of the fans Jazz was considered to be the pleasant Autobot by the majority.

Facts About The Transformers 2 Character Mixmaster

by Michael Nielsen

An important character of Transformers that completes the existence of Devastator is Mixmaster. Yes, he is the same character that has the ability to produce acid by mixing various chemical components. His acid can be used very effectively, so he has an intellectual power in addition to the physical power. His skills let him make any thing by using anything, living or nonliving. Nothing can come between his experimental purposes, until he accomplished them.

Being a vital personality, Mixmaster is accepted by his fans to demonstrate his charisma in Transformers 2. He has forever been the cohort and supporter of Long Haul by making left leg of Devastator. Until that time, we have seen Mixmaster in purple with in green colours. Let us perceive what colour he is going to have in Transformer: Revenge of the Fallen. Most probably, it is going to be silver and black.

Like Long Haul, he is as well created by tremor. He then had a knack to transform into a cement truck – or you can say cement mixing bulldozer. As it has been told previously, he can generate acid; the acid he produces can flame even steel doors. He can in addition produce a smoke screen, which is also very destructive and can burn anything. After preparing a mixture, he can transfer it through his hand that can be changed into a pouring tool. In Transformers 2, he is going to show his presence in the form of a concrete mixer tank.

Mixmaster’s eating habits are very strange as he loves to drink oil. He is often in a funny mood, and whistles when he sees red hot cars. His accent resembles Brookyn’s. He is much more aggressive, a control freak, and selfish when compared to other characters.

Being a strong minded character, he is going to be the head of Devastator. Maybe it’s because of his intellectual skills and rational approach that he is chosen to be the main part of Devastator. Like always, in this upcoming movie he is going to accompany Long Haul in finding Megatron’s body from under the deep sea. This is the point of devastation for the Autobots. They were thinking that they had bestowed the world with peace by killing Megatron forever. But, on the other hand, Mixmaster was busy finding his apparently dead master to make his survival possible in any case.

Autobots are contented after defeating their foe, although they do not identify that they have now ended a little clash on the visage of the world. They do not know that the real fight is just about to start on. This fight will not be the fight for earth, but rather it will be a fight for the universe that will be much more vicious, with much more powerful enemies.

Mixmaster is surely going to play a major role in defeating the enemy, but whether he is going to succeed in his mission or whether once again his team has to face defeat is still a mystery.
