We join a group of northeastern GWCers to watch Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen in Times Square then talk through the movie with their able help! Highlights: We enjoy the film’s awesome action, tear up at Prime’s dedication and sacrifice, discuss the Matrix of Leadership’s important role in the new film, wish for a ‘Bee of our very own, and wonder what’s next for the Transformers franchise. (And much, much more. Seriously! Our IQs rise 50 points when we’re backed up by awesome listeners live. Check it out for yourself!)
Awesome, the movie + the live recording session with all the GCWers made for a great Saturday afternoon.
Too bad the rest of the world won’t see Frakkintalos doing his best Megan Fox lascivious poses while Chuck and Audra were talking…
Woot!! I’m only 2 1/2 minutes into the 'cast and it has been revealed:
Talos has read (or audiobooked) Dune!! Congrats. A fellow Dunie is born.
(Dunie? Duner? Hmmm…we’ll have to work on a name for Dune fans…)
Ooh listening material for myflight this afternoon. I wonder how it turns out?
And frakintalos rocked his impression of Megan Fox!
So wait you’re telling me that was FT and NOT Megan Fox? Wow…That confuses things
=P
Crazy isn’t it?
I shall be downloading right after work!! WOOT!
Kwizatz "Head"erachs? Worm Heads? Sand People…no wait thats taken
Ok, if you are a Firefly fan you are a Browncoat…
if you are a Star Trek fan you are a Trekker…
Stingers?
Oh man, oh man. The infamous David Lynch Dune movie… My friends and I who all read Dune in High School, were SO SO looking forward to that movie, and were so disappointed that it came it so flawed. But we did shout out in the theatre “STIIINGGGGGG!!!”
Downloading now!
“What is the Megan Fox issue?” Audra asks.
I know I read it.
That doesn’t even really look like her…weird. Hot though/
Think you mispelled “Trekkie”
The Transformers cover Chuck was thinking of is by Meatbee (I think. There are loads, but that got a lot of attention before the first one.)
And given what I’ve heard of the ‘twins,’ I’m shocked they didn’t throw some Optimus Rhyme in there.
It was indeed Meatbee, and you introduced me to it, sir.
I know. The resemblance is uncanny.
Both on general principles and for making me look at 1/2 of that…
Solai 'Talos
Here’s some info if you’re interested:
Mark Ryan voiced Bumblebee for his one line inthe last one and he voiced Jetfire in this one. His job on both movies was the onset TF reference- he read all the lines for the Transformers so the humans could have something to play off of. It’s pretty cool he was rewarded for his hard work in both movies.

Glen Morshower played Col. Sharp in the first movie, and he’s playing a new character named after him in this movie.
And by the way, I apologize because I think I was the one who told you guys Susan Blu was coming back as Arcee. I was premature- she’s actually voiced by Grey Deslisle:
How does she get her back to curve at an almost 90-degree angle like that??
