Transformers Roll Out!

I just cannot contain my excitement and anticipation when i saw the transformers trailers on youtube, 2 of which i have posted. I mean which kid, ok i mean the kid of me growing up in the 80s and early 90s, and of my generation doesn't watch Transformers??

They were perhaps the next biggest thing to X-Men!! or even bigger! The X-Men trilogy was good, it certainly brought some fresh life to the cartoon, not just pure nostalgia. But transformers is another different story. It had a much greater impact on me and i'm pretty certain on many others of my generation too! Kids are always fascinated by new things and cartoons are one of the best ways to introduce them. On top of Teenage mutant ninja turtles, captain america, spiderman and other cartoons, transformers blows my mind! now that i think and see in perspective as compared to the rest. I mean, in those days, you see robots? i don't even know they are robots! but just something so fascinating! throw in the classic evil vs good storyline and Bam! itched in memory forever.

Watching the trailers is like unlocking the memories stored in some hidden section of my brain. Kind of a dormant volcano erupting! and that my friend told me that it will be released in late June and not July as the trailer mentioned, makes the impending eruption even stronger! The trailers do an excellent job of building up the anticipation, excitement, eagerness and many other stuff. Talk about marketing, i think Movie marketing is truly awesome, at its best though!

Would it be a massive hit like spiderman, x-men? well i believe it will at least equal them, i wouldn't be surprised if it exceeds! well enough for now, back to drooling over the trailers!

Transformers Reunited!
