Jul 2 2009'Transmorphers: Fall of Man' Trailer: The Machines are Coming!
At long last, the talent that brought us The Terminators (plural) has unveiled the follow-up to one of the most accidentally-rented-by-confused-parents movies of all time: trailer for Transmorphers 2: Fall of Man!
As a warning, those already planning to purchase Transmorphers: Fall of Man may wish to avoid the trailer, as I think it kind of spoils what are probably the best scenes and lines. Going into the film already knowing that a satellite dish transmorphs into a narrow Terminator, and that something in the air gives a guy a suspicion that "the machines are coming," can only negatively affect my experience. Not to mention that the title already gives me a strong hunch that man may fall.
But if you decide to watch, note this innovation: this may be the first trailer with an arbitrary modem intermission.
"Run as fast as you can"/"No" is just the kind of indisputably powerful exchange that more trailers need. That's raw trailer meat, and Asylum Entertainment knows just how to cook it.
(Thanks, Brad.)

I'm instructing my lawyers and michael, and Steve to put an end to this fiasco. It's ruining my Best Performance by an Antromorphic Sentient Being bid for the Oscras.

Man, that looks badass!

I saw the first Transmorphers and it was terrible...And I love giant fight robots, I'm kind of a Connoisseur of Giant Fighting Robots. Is this a damn prequel? If you want to know what the first Transmorphers was about watch Terminator, Transformers and the Battlestar Galactica miniseries all in a row instead. Sure it will take significantly longer, but at least they don't suck

Wow. That is a direct rip-off of Revenge of the Fallen. I know the series was already ripping them off with the title and subject matter, but some of the locales and scenes are almost exactly the same here. Only shittier.

Why didn't they just make it GoBots?
10. Adrian Sands - July 2, 2009 4:24 PM
Man, I can't believe they got Tron to star in this movie. Still fighting for the users, it seems...
11. CSH - July 2, 2009 4:39 PM
While this will obviously suck, I will say this: at least they show you the Transformers, instead of cutting away so fast you never have any idea what you're looking at.

Man, Bruce Boxleitner? I hate to see how his career has plummeted.

Asylum Entertainment is on the my top 10 list of most hated things.
14. TetterkeT - July 2, 2009 6:02 PM
Keep your eyes peeled for the next Transmorphers installment,"Fall of The Risen."
P.S. - I'm copyrighting that one, Asylum, so don't even think about stealing it!

This is great - nice to know between TRANSFORMERS 2 and TERMINATOR 4 a single knockoff can take care of my need for a ripoff of both... Yeah, that wasn't a very good sentence.

The best part is when Steve Carell from Little Miss Sunshine, is running with a gun, then logs on to AOL to conceivably be informed that he has mail. Mail that may hold the key to stopping these robots.

At least they look like actual Transformers compared to the jagged edged (not the r&b group) piles of metal Michael Bay call Decepticons. These Trannymorphers dont seem to be stereo typical black folk either.
I give it 3.5 fingers in the stink.
18. Rude - July 2, 2009 6:40 PM
Asylum Entertainment is on my Top 10 list of most awesome things.

I'm just happy to see Jennifer Rubin working. Maybe this could segue into "Bad Dreams 2: Still Having Bad Dreams." Someone get Richard Lynch on the horn before he joins Jackson... I hope I didn't just kill the man. If so, get Abe Vigoda, he'll outlive us all.
20. _me - July 2, 2009 7:20 PM
Oh hell, Bruce Boxleitner is in it. I'm gonna go get that!
21. jaime - July 2, 2009 9:03 PM
I only realised it was transMORPHers when the guy said it at the end of the trailer hahah.
i love how he says the names of the actors as if they were famous...
22. Triz - July 3, 2009 12:09 AM
Does this take place in Cleveland or something?
23. sam - July 3, 2009 1:44 AM

It's not like it can be any worse than the fighting robots movie that's out now. That thing is horrible.
27. Rob Imbs - July 3, 2009 8:49 AM
It looks better than Transformers 2 : revenge of the fallen.
28. sonfilmizle - July 3, 2009 9:31 AM

Bruce Boxleitner was awesome in Tron and Babylon 5... but its terrible to see the shit movies he's making now. He's a better actor than that!

If you've seen the preview for the first Transmorphers, you can only come to the conclusion that the sequel represents a huge leap forward in terms of overall quality. "Quality" being completely relative of course. If the trailer for the first film was like having frozen tuning forks shoved into my eyes, this was more like getting an eyelash stuck in there. Unpleasant, annoying for a while, yes, but not anything that will scar me for life.
31. GeneralMayhem - July 3, 2009 12:19 PM
This looks like it's destined to appear on The Scy Fy Channel under a different name, labeled as a Scy Fy "Original Movie". How sad...
32. James - July 3, 2009 1:36 PM
@19 me too. Any trailer, no matter how awful, that makes an obsessive Nightmare of Elm Street fan go "OMG TARYN" is a winner.
I think i'll combine my sense of duty with my paranoia and buy a few copies of this, never watch it, and carve the discs into makeshift weapons for the robot and/or zombie apocalypse.
33. Scott Doakley - July 4, 2009 12:05 AM
Wow! I can't believe ILM had the resources to do Transformers AND this movie!
34. Galtacticus - July 5, 2009 9:10 AM
What do you get if you mix Terminator with Transformers? Exactly,it was just a matter of time.
35. Daniel Segatto - July 5, 2009 3:41 PM
I hope there´s Geishas and fried shrimp in this movie too.
36. Adam - July 5, 2009 6:56 PM
Who wants to bet it ends up being better than the real Transformers 2?
37. dan - July 5, 2009 9:47 PM
why do i get the feeling this movie is composed of 1 hour and 30 minutes of people running away from stuff?
38. ritzy - July 5, 2009 11:14 PM
LOLLLLLLLLLLL this is so shit.
39. David - July 6, 2009 1:17 PM
Proof of a low budget: they had to use Dial-Up robots.
40. well thats nice - July 6, 2009 1:40 PM
id rather see this than the shit sandwich that Bay made.
41. Siphon - July 7, 2009 4:49 PM
Wow really... I actually watched the first one on netflix instant watch. Worst movie I've ever seen! At the same time the funniest... in terms of how bad EVERYTHING was... how does this crap get funded... I've got a couple of ideas fund me jeez!
42. zonalpony - July 7, 2009 5:16 PM
this is a real movie?
43. Subayaitori - July 8, 2009 9:03 AM
I'm just waiting for the Robot Jox, Voltron Crossover, Power Morphin Ranger Robocop magical bot wars movie... or whatever.
44. forlourned - July 8, 2009 1:16 PM
Sad, sad Mr. Bruce. Needing that next paycheck for the mortgage I'm a thinking. His last great thing did was Babylon 5 way back in the '90s and now this and a few cameos...
45. Henry - July 9, 2009 8:57 AM
is this the same studio that brought "snakes on a train"?
46. Adam - July 11, 2009 2:25 PM
@46 Yes, they're called Asylum Entertainment.
47. NekoSama - July 13, 2009 8:43 AM
That pic comes from GTA IV with some kind of japanese mecha customization, admit it! :P
48. Thrasher - July 13, 2009 3:10 PM
