fashionvictim86 Posted June 29, 2009 Posted June 29, 2009 I saw it last night. I was amazed to see that the steel company that my dad worked at was in it for one of the fight scenes. I didn't know it. I came home and told my dad that they filmed in Bethlehem, PA and they used the steel and he said I knew I read about it. I think that's all gone now...they built a casino where the steel was.
Tiffx Posted June 29, 2009 Posted June 29, 2009 I just saw this movie. It was okay but Shia Labouf screams like a girl and Megan Fox is annoying as fuck. and 21 Guns didn't really go with the movie, but it still made me smile.

I think that's all gone now...they built a casino where the steel was.Yeah I live in the area.a kid in my calc class a year or so ago was excited about it cause they needed asian extras so he jumped on the opportunity.So I knew a long time ago that Bethlehem Steel was going to be in it.Ah, okay.What about the new Terminator movie? Is that any good?Terminator?I stopped with those after the second. the third let me down
Mechanical Man Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 No.21 Guns is too close to myself.It's too personal.That'd be cool to hear it in the movie but i think it means too much to me.So I'm against:)How 21 Guns, a pop song, mean THAT much to you. And they play that song in at least four fucking scenes. Gets wicked annoying.
amy_runs Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 When I heard 21 Guns, it took me by surprise because I forgot it was in the movie. So it was pretty cool. AND THE LITTLE TRANSFORMER GUY (the one Megan Fox puts in a box and tries to 'train' and it's a little remote control truck) IS TOTALLY SPONGEBOB. It is. I know it.

We live in Lehighton. When the steel closed, my dad was 2 years away from his pension. So he went up to New York and worked to finish it out. Now he drives for a trucking company even though he gets pension. The steel fucked over a lot of people anyway. I didn't know it was the steel until my bf nudged me and he goes look Bethlehem Steel. I still haven't gotten down to the casinos. Everyone keeps asking me to go but when they do I don't have the money.

Towers Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 I liked the fact that it was in the movie, but maybe they played it a little too much? idk. I mean sometimes it seemed like a mere publicity move, the song wasn't really needed

bernagd Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 i dont like the idea of using that song in the movie, but i still have to see it so i can have a good point of view
CarmenPunkGirl Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 i'm downloading the movie.can't wait to see it
emmaILGD! Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 I think it was nice too put it in but it was played in the wrong placesYeah that's what one of my friends said.Well, imo it's better than the Linkin Park song, but I fail to see how the theme of 21 Guns, fits in with some random transforming robot things.
communitykid Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 I was really disappointed to hear how bad the movie turned out. The critics are bombing it really bad right now, and the way they talk makes me think Shia's career may be in jeopardy...
Tiffx Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 I think I'm going to buy the soundtrack, it looks so good.
Atticus Finch Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 I was really disappointed to hear how bad the movie turned out. The critics are bombing it really bad right now, and the way they talk makes me think Shia's career may be in jeopardy... Have you seen it? I and pretty much everyone around here that's seen it thought the movie was excellent... it's weird to hear that people/critics think it literally bombed.
Kate Austen Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 I think it was nice too put it in but it was played in the wrong placesYou hit the nail on the head. This is why it rubbed me the wrong way. I feel sort of disappointed in Green Day and the label (whoever decides to let people use their music) - that they would allow them to use 21 Guns the way they did. I couldn't help but roll my eyes, as the placing/cut up of the song was horrible. And they def did use it TOO much, was getting a bit ridiculous hearing it over and over in that movie within a short period of time.I also noticed it closed out the credits (after the one song ends 1 min in). Heh, at least that was the FULL song.
jacknovella Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 I'm going to see Transformers 2 today I'll keep an ear out for 21 Guns.My friend doesn't really like Green Day so I'll be sure to point it out to her
NoVaCaInE! Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 Have you seen it? I and pretty much everyone around here that's seen it thought the movie was excellent... it's weird to hear that people/critics think it literally bombed.I thought it was flippin excellent too, i can understand why some people didnt like it though but when I had to go take a piss, I ran out to the toilet and back. So that in my books proves how good a movie is And hearing 21 Guns in it was awesome too, I didnt stay for the full song at the end though because there was literally only about 6 people in the theatre and they left straight away and i felt pretty lame staying there on my own haha, but i heard like 30 secs of it.
farley drexel hatcher Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 I don't get why everyone is moaning about it being played too much; think of it from the point of view of someone who doesn't know the song and it's like any other song played through a movie. It was played in part like three times, and that was it.
jacknovella Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 Just got back about an hour ago. I loved the film, it was awesome It was great to hear 21 Guns too, I stayed at the end to listen to it too.
Boston Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 I just saw Transformers 2 for the first time. The song didn't fit in at all! I think they just wanted to put Green Day in the soundtrack.
Moxy Crimefighter Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 the song didn't fit at all! although I wasn't fussed.Megan Fox, Slow Motion, no Bra
82 Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 I thought it was such an awesome film.Kinda random that they had 21 Guns playing in the car shop, but still!I got all excited when i heard it
theeulogy Posted July 3, 2009 Posted July 3, 2009 I honestly thought it was really stupid and out of place. :/Agreed!They've choosen really wrong moments
