Cars and Trucks in Transformers the Movie


Transformers the movie is now the most anticipated motion picture after the number one box office hit Spider-Man 3 premiered this May. The Transformers will be out in theatres this coming July so you better get your ticket reservations for the best seats in the house because it’s going to be an action-packed experience with the Autobots and the Decepticons!

From what I saw on the Transformers trailer, cars and trucks are the alternates of some lead robot characters. Take for example Optimus Prime which is a big truck alternate and Bumblebee who is a Chevrolet Camaro. I think there is a Hummer truck and a Pontiac Solstice too. Anyway, the plot of the movie shows the battle of two dueling aliens - the Decepticons and Autobots. The very unfortunate thing for the earthlings is that the two clashing alien robots found their battleground… and it is here on earth! How nerve-cracking is that?!

But the Autobots, which are the “good guys”, are here to stay to protect humankind from destruction brought about by Megatron and his league of Decepticons here on our planet.

In the trailer, the yellow Chevrolet Camaro is the first car of the kid (I forgot his name) that was a present from his dad. And it turned out to be one of the Autobots. Soon as the kid knew he was keeping a robot in his garage, it changes his life for good and, of course, every human being in the planet also is affected by that. But luckily, Bumblebee, Optimus Prime and the rest of the Autobots gave their very best to protect the earth from the evil hands of the Decepticons. Isn’t that sweet and sensitive from a robot!

Bumblebee was actually a Volkswagen Beetle in the animated movie during the 80s while Optimus Prime is the same big truck. The cars shown in the movie was so awesome especially when they transform into robots - and that’s the coolest thing from the Transformers. It makes me feel like a child again! I will never miss this movie for the world and I’ll be waiting for July whatever happens.
