ROTF Trailer Analysis

Posted by:
Perceptor at 2009-02-18 12:36 am   (site update)
We have compiled a gallery of high definition images from the recently released, Revenge of the Fallen trailer.  Let the speculation and analysis begin!

Did you notice the (presumably Arcee) individual cycle robot components, after the Audi Transformer does a quadruple back-flip through that couple's apartment?  Speaking of "the" Audi, is this the silver color Sideways?  Or perhaps a different Audi based Transformer.  This one appears to have stripes across the hood, further, it doesn't have the headlights characteristic of an R8.

Did you know that Sam is pulling the head off a robot insect?!  Of course if this is an "Insecticon" shouldn't he be screaming and gushing blood from his fingers at the very least?!

Did you notice that 4 Transformers land in the Desert next to the Pyramids?  While at least 5 Transformers rain down upon the aircraft carrier!

Is this Megatron's arm?  Tell you what.  It's not Starscream's as the Super Bowl ad would have us believe!

Yeah, this is The Fallen.   But did you notice he may be a teleporter?  That, or maybe this is his introductory scene and he appears from nowhere, with a bolt of lightning!  then materializes, wow!  Did you catch that the first few times?  I didn't!

What other surprising observations can you make from studying these images up close and in detail?

For the Bug i was wondering the same thing to, but i figured it was just a "earth adapted" spy device.

In picture 3 I see somthing that could possibly be the Ifle Tower (did i spell that right).

The stripes on the Audi look more like a reflection of lights.

I see Scorponok has regrown his tail.

Who's that guy in pic number 75?

And what is pic number 44?

Pic 44 is the fade in from black on the close up of Sam pulling apart the "insecticon". It stands to reason the only way Sam would be able to mess with the insect robot is because it's been deactivated.

Pic 72,if you look close I believe it may be the Fallen,himself ?

That is the Fallen! Plus it reminds me to point something else out about him... see above!

i never thought any transformer culd teleport, hmm...btw, those 5 transformers who landed, or 4, which ones are autobots? if u know...

@Soundwave: G1 Skywarp.

Anyway, that may have been what the Fallen was doing, site to site teleportation. Maybe not at any great distances, but enough to scare the heck out of his enemies.

That, or thats just how he showed up. Maybe summoned or awakened from within the pyramid?

SKYWARP teleports! I thought Mirage had done that too.

When I first saw the trailer,I taught the thing that teleported was skywarp. And the incect thing sorta look like soundwave. And when the arm holds sam, sam is on a car so it might be in the city.

That insecticon looks almost like Kickback, he did have wings. Yeah, I think that is Megatron holding Sam down, his left arm is supposed to be smaller, so it makes sense. As for the Fallen teleporting, yes, some TF's have teleported, but I didn't think it would have been explored in these movies like the size thing. But they did with the Alspark so I guess they will touch on it. I think Arcee will have the tech specs on the art of Combining, and Prime and Jetfire will be combining after he and Starscream have a fight. And the Autobots will use that information to constuct Superion in the third film. Glad there is more bots in this film, glad more bots acting and the humans taking a back seat to the TF's!

Bruticus_42, are you just asuming all that or is that true. Any how, I do believe that Megs has came back. I don't know what to expect from the bug and the fallen is cool.

wouldnt it be cool if 1 of the 5 that hit the aircraft carrier turned out to be tidalwave!

i see they added more bulk to the fallen as we wanted when we saw the concept art.
Joeyt said,  - 2009-02-18 19:25:20

i noticed that ravage is one of the transformers that hit the aircraft carrier because hes getting out of the water .that really does look like the fallen . the stripes do look like they are coming off the audi symble on the hood . no big deal . but the real question is who the hell is kicking primes butt when hes getting his face smashed in .wow cant wait it looks soooo dark and evil . i would like to see the decepticons win this fight . ravage looks like somthing out of hell raiser , i mean hes a cyclops with spikes i wonder what his alt mode is going to be .

Wow! I didn´t noticed that the fallen was on that trailer.
BTW after reading a truckload of posts about the devastator figure presented at the 2009 Toy fair several critics say that it wasn´t two feet tall. Could it be possible that this wasn´t the U$100 devs, but a more modest U$ 70 or so version and the real deal is still being kept behind the courtains? this might be silly but I think that with all the conspiracies that the movie and the toyline have awakened seems like the way to choose for them.
fallen said,  - 2009-02-23 14:00:46
then how tall is the devastor figure
