Transformers Movies and Cartoons on Free-TV

[UltraMarginal]

I saw it in the program guide this morning, if for some reason you prefer watching it with ads and not on DVD/Blu-Ray it's on telly tonight, channel 10 I think.

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.

I'm actually rather enjoying watching ROTF tonight - I just go to the kitchen for another beer during the truly cringe-worthy bits

You tend to forget all the cool stuff from that flick (Alice, Ravage, the forest fight etc)

"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.
