Talk:Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)

Where's Chromia? She is confirmed! I added her why is she gone? And what about Ratchet? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Godziboy1993 (talk • contribs).

They haven't been "confirmed". They got stolen from factories in China. That is not an official confirmation. --Detour 15:58, 27 March 2009 (EDT)

Ok, this is ridiculous. Yes it IS AN OFFICIAL CONFIRMATION. She was even in the god damn trailer! And why isn't Ratchet and Longhaul up on that either? Stolen from factories give me a break. Put them back on. Godziboy1993 21:55, 27 March 2009 (EDT)

Oh and Barricade is on there too. His toy was stolen from a factory. Why the hell not Chromia, Ratchet, and Longhaul.

Because it is illegally acquired information. That simple. We'll add them once Roberto Orci confirms their presence, or Hasbro releases official photographs of the toys. To find out more, refer to Help:Official info. --Detour 22:10, 27 March 2009 (EDT)

Paramount pictures cast list.

This poster looks like a pretty official cast list. FFN, you think it's dubious? - Starfield 06:50, 2 April 2009 (EDT)

Well, for a Starter, Overload should be added to the list of constructicons. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by GUIGUI (talk • contribs) 17:20, 2 April 2009 EDT.

I agree, they didn't pull that name out of the æther. But it might be premature to spell it "Longhaul", or move The Fallen to the Decepticon column, or move Jetfire to the Autobot column. - Starfield 21:31, 2 April 2009 (EDT)

I really do not understand how this is set up. Why is Demolisher a seperate character? Who is the 7th constructicon when only six are shown combining into Devastator?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Godziboy1993 (talk • contribs) 19:36, 6 April 2009 EDT.

Who knows? - Starfield 19:40, 6 April 2009 (EDT)

Japanese world premiere.

With the premiere in Japan, does that mean ROTF characters are [[Category:Japanese-original characters]]? - Starfield 10:50, 27 April 2009 (EDT)

You'd better be joking. - Chris McFeely 11:12, 27 April 2009 (EDT)

Transmitter at official site

What was the necessary stuff to log in again for the Transmitter? I can't remember if it was Derik or Detour that had posted up some things for it... Not that it's updated much. << >> --Lonegamer78 23:45, 1 May 2009 (EDT)

How about an actual article?

This thing is basically a list of info. Why isn't this a bit more organized, like on Wikipedia? And is the stuff about the Writers' Strike really neccesary? I'd edit it, but I do not appear to have that privilege. Jim Java 16:56, 8 May 2009 (EDT)

Yes it's a list of info, because right now all we have is info. It's better than Wikipedia's page because it focuses on confirmed news only and not rumors, stolen toys and third-hand reports. Yes, the stuff about the Writer's Strike is necessary, since it did affect production of Revenge Of The Fallen. No, you can't edit it, because the page is protected on account of so many anonymous users and new users making additions based on rumors, stolen toys and third-hand reports. --Detour 17:28, 8 May 2009 (EDT)

In about a month and a half, this article will get a total top-to-bottom re-write, when... y'know... we see the movie. Till then, there's not a lot of point in dramatic changes; they'd just be swept away under the deluge of information that we'll have when the film is released.

That said, I feel your pain. "Writer such-and-such has envisioned a storyline involving the Constructicons" seems like a ridiculous bit of information to have right upfront at this point in the game, when we've seen them in the trailer. ETA: If you'd seriously like to have a go at cleaning it up, you could always set up a temp page somewhere. -- Repowers 17:33, 8 May 2009 (EDT)

At the same time, I don't really see the point of doing a page like the Wikipedia. We'll never be able to compete with them in terms of sheer information on things like production, and were are restricted by our rule of only using information that has been released by Hasbro/Takara, Dreamworks, Paramount and their partners (and they generally don't release much in the way of information). Besides, as I've understood this wiki, our focus is on the content of the fiction itself and the characters starring in it, which is what differentiates us from the Wikipedia. We're not really here to tell people about how the director of photography and camera personnel filmed the 2007 movie on a mechanical bull or something. --FFN 21:06, 8 May 2009 (EDT)

Could we at least organize this in paragraph form? It wouldn't take very long, but it would look way better. Just thought I'd ask. Jim Java 20:50, 11 May 2009 (EDT)

I don't think that would make the article better at all. The article as-is is a list of things. Making that list into a big block of text is not going to help anything. We don't need to pretend that this article isn't a list. --ItsWalky 21:18, 11 May 2009 (EDT)

I'm gonna throw my hat in here and tell you to just wait. It's like Repowers said, give just over a month and the entire article will be totally redone top to bottom, just like you want Jim Java. Until then look at the Wikipedia article, I'm pretty sure they have it broken into paragraphs and make it an "actual article" as I'm sure you're insinuating.--AWT88 22:22, 11 May 2009 (EDT)

UK Release 19th June = World Premiere

As I write this the UK will be getting this a whole week before the States. So like, can we come and get started on the articles, or will there be Dubya-like emphasis on US civil (=Spoiler) liberties? 82.7.126.27 12:58, 18 May 2009 (EDT)
