I honestly can't remember the last time I saw an ad on TV. My life has been bliss ever since.
With each of the networks now having 3 or 4 channels, they repeat a lot of movies within short spaces of time (it's like repeat screenings on PayTV, but less predictable). Network 7 was playing the Pirates movies a couple times over, while 9 played the newer Batman movies a couple times within a few weeks. (not to mention replaying their most costly shows up to 3 times in the week, and the odd new movie within two weeks on a different channel of theirs)
It wouldn't surprise me if we get the full run of three again, as it was just a couple months ago when Ten last played them a week apart.
Channel Nine has Revenge of the Fallen on tonight, from 9pm
That's interesting. Channel 10 has been sitting on the rights for Transformers since the first Movie aired back in 2009 and were playing one every few months... and now Channel 9 has it.
I just saw the ad tonight, and they refer to it being from Steven Spielberg, but not Michael Bay.
As a fan I thought it was funny, but wonder why they did that. Only a portion of the fans see him as a negative element, so to the rest of the world that spent a billion dollars on most of the Transformers movies, Bay is the reason for that.
And it's not like he's unknown, as Channel 9 have been using him to promote their show "The Last Ship", which was done by his Production company Platinum Dunes.
"You'll never stop at one! ... I'll take YOU ALL ON!"
"Decepticons...mobilize, it is time"
"You picked the wrong planet! Now give me your face!"
Just some awesome lines of the movie. I actually like RoTF more then the first one and AoE, it's plot isn't very good but it has some great one-liners and action scenes.
Rather then Stanely Tucci "OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!"
The forest battle is even more epic in the extended IMAX version. ;)
Tonight (Tuesday) on channel 99 is TF2 again.... which was what they played last month, so maybe they only bought the rights to that one.
She's a superfreak, superfreak :) She's superfreaky....
It's over!
Saturday night on Channel 10 at 8.55 is TF3 - Dark of the Moon.
So Channel 10 must have wanted to keep the rights to the third movie, and gave up the second one to Channel 9.
The 2007 movie is on tonight on Channel 10 at 9.44pm.
Channel 7 used to repeat TFTM every New Year's Day for years. I think they stopped somewhere around the mid 90s, but that used to be an annual ritual for me. Pretty sweet way to welcome in the new year. :)
The 2007 movie is back on again tonight - 9.30pm on channel 12/One.
I only ended up seeing a single commercial for it, a couple hours before it started (which was why I didn't even know it was on until that day)... and it is funny to see the different angles the TV stations use to promote the same movie.
On a recent screening there was heavy promoting of it being a Michael Bay film, and on this one, the TV advertisement was all about Megan Fox... more than the actual robots... as if people would watch a movie just because she is in it. :rolleyes:
TF2 ROTF is on Channel 99 (Go) on Saturday at 8.30pm.
I thought it was funny last week, seeing a commercial for ESB but still promoting the entire series on Seven... with only 2 left.
I saw that on the program guide today.
Maybe it didn't screen the other week.
And Channel One has TF3 DOTM on Wednesday at 8.30pm.
With Transformers movies currently licensed to different channels it means we won't see a run of them in a row like the recent Star Wars movies (which are going through a repeat on 73 but promoted as a premiere)... during the lead up to the next one.
The 2007 movie is on Channel 9 on Saturday at 8.45pm.
I got to my Grandma's place on Saturday to fix her main TV (the one she connects Foxtel to) to find she was watching Transformers 2!
I don't think she was watching it for the plot. :) More for the mindless distraction.
And she was very happy to get back to her Foxtel.
BTW, all my grandma had done was accidentally hit the TV/AV button and didn't know which button to press to get back to it.
Transformers 3 DOTM is on channel 11 tonight at 8.30pm.
Transformers 4 is having its first screening on free-to-air TV on Saturday, at 7pm on Channel 9.
Only 2 years and 2 months after it started in theatres...
(I didn't realise it had been so long)
I've been thinking lately it's time to sit down and watch it again since I have the bluray and I haven't seen it since the cinema.
Not sure why they started the movie early at 7pm, because it isn't for young kiddies... and they cut out a fair bit, to get it down to PG for that timeslot.
