Local news story I did go see this last night, and it was very interesting watching what they do. It's sorta hard to tell what they are doing but there were helicopters flying all around and near daybreak they set off some pyros. They will be shooting again tonight and tomorrow night.

What did Transformers 2 ever do to anybody?

About time somebody put it out of its misery.

Wasn't it convicted of rape?

I forgot you lived around here DarkKnight. I'm in Bethlehem. We were there last night late, after 1am. I was also watching the helicopters on and off throughout the evening. They looked the coolest around dusk.

There were something like three awesome military helicopters being followed by one or two filming helicopters, and they were making passes all over town throughout the entire evening. Late night they started doing some machine gun fire and explosions.

Very cool.

Military helicopters and machine gun fire being featured leads me to believe that 2 will make the same mistake as 1, treating the humans as the focus and relegating the Transformers to guest star status.

But it sounds like they're shooting it for days and days! That's hardly "putting it out of its misery".

No, that was its uncle.

I will be back again tonight...I think...I will have a Batman shirt on [Smile]
they had Apache gunships and some 'police' helicopters. I heard it was for the opening of the movie and it is supposed to be China or Japan. They had a call out for Asian looking people to be extras

There's never a call for extraneous 6' blond white guys.

Well, at least they're putting it out of our misery.

And the cycle of abuse continues.

There were humans in Transformers? I didn't recognize any... Humans visibly exist in three dimensions.

My parents grew up in and around Pittsburgh, and I just took my wife there for the first time last month. I really enjoyed the trip, and did she.

Tuesday night pretty much got rained out...but it was still very cool to see the outside set. Did you get a chance to see it, Strider?

Did you see any robots? They promised more robots in the second movie. [Smile]
