Beginning today with Star Trek (release May 8) and continuing with Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (June 24) and G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (Aug. 7), this partnership marks an evolution of an ongoing alliance between Burger King Corp. and Paramount Pictures that takes movie marketing to new levels.
TRANSFORMERS: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN
- Transform Your Way(TM): Starting June 22, fans can look forward to the Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen promotion, which will give guests the chance to take home a range of prizes, from $1 million cash** to a 2010 Chevrolet Camaro to movie passes and instant-win food items like the CROISSAN'WICH(R) and WHOPPER(R) sandwich. As part of the Transform Your Way(TM) scratch-and-win game, game pieces will be available on specially marked menu items.

Burger King Announces Transformers Promotion Details
Burger King did a promotional tie-in with the first Transformers movie and in February the company indicated it was joining up a second time for Revenge of the Fallen. Sadly at the time details were lacking. Now, via a press release (via TFW2005), BK has made the partnership official and provided a little more information about the promotion that will include toys, a new burger and contests. The full press release is here but the Transformers segment is below.

ReplyDeletei seriously doubt we'd get anything but the toys over here (Malta)sux cuz i'd eat bk everyday for a chance to win BB
ReplyDeletePaul, it not being in Malta then has likely saved your life. BK everyday?
ReplyDeletehas tf08 posted any pics of these Stakticons? will this be Soundwave's earth mode?
i could film a documentary at the same time ;) I'll call it Burgersize me
ReplyDeletelets add to the supersizing of America!!! BK promos...eat a bacon burger and it will combine with my gutt transforming me into a fat a$$.
ReplyDelete50 days left!!! cant wait!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteok! a camaro 2010 as a price?! i must have that!!!
ReplyDeleteHA HA I CAN SEE IT NOW! Five year old kids everywhere will end up getting the Devastator or the Fallen toys and go "NO! I want Skids and Mudflap!" HA HA XD That would be just great to watch lol!
ReplyDeletei know right, the parents would be throwing bitchfits
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone here actually like the first transformers film. Most of you guys speak like you hated it. Personally ive watched the action and transformation scenes atleast 400 times, the other stuff is kind of shit. But its still like my top 2 favourite movies for shear intertainment along with the 300. I have seen alot of movies by the way.
ReplyDeletei dont hate the first movie. personally almost everyday i watch the finalbattle i like the action. more action in ROTF then its at the top of my list
ReplyDeletelol yeah I used to watch the final battle like everyday too
ReplyDeleteOh yeah stacking meat and cheese is just like transforming robots.
ReplyDeleteDumbest logic ever.
You can do that anyway without a TF promotion. :p
i happen to have a frame on my wall of all 50 cinema tickets i kept from the 50 cinemas i saw transformers in (in other words i saw transformers 50 times in the cinema no exagerating)
ReplyDelete^^^ Dude, Bay should take you to dinner. That's like $500 you've put into his pocket for just the movie alone, not counting toys and whatever else.
ReplyDeleteIm going to put a bunch of Stackticons together and call it Stackerion
ReplyDeleteWHAT A WASTE OF THE FIRST THREE POSTS...anyway,this BK story is all we for the last couple of days??? c-mon Bay where is this onslaught ya promised???
ReplyDelete@thechief
ReplyDeletei actually do not own a single transformers toy :(
but i plan to start collecting once the rotf toyline come out
yesterday i got the wingblade toy he's a A-10 plane, seen in the first movie
ReplyDeleteI hope this hasn't been posted yet... I seem to always get the loose end in this.
ReplyDeleteEmpire magazine put up a bunch of pictures from the new movie plus commentary on different scenes in the trailer. It really gives you more of an insight into things.

Again I apologize if this is already posted I didn't know
someone help me out here.
ReplyDeletethat guy a few posts back saying hes from DWE or wat ever said something about an afterparty. now he said that at the afterparty, he saw a clip of Barricade coming to the college and then the pretender strikes. does anyone know if this is fact or fiction oh ya and is this a good name for a helicopter transformer--
TailWhip. came up with it all by myself. lol :-)
NVM about the above thing I got confused *sighs*
ReplyDeleteI hope Burger King grills the Autobot and Decepticon symbols into the meat... mmmmm subliminal advertising *drool*
ReplyDeleteThe new Burger King Stackticon(TM): Transforms from delicious cheesy burger to severe stomach cramps in a matter of minutes
ReplyDeleteHey...I just noticed.
ReplyDeleteThis picture...

The author of the blog said it was Soundwave but it looks like that Frenzy Look-A-Like from the old on-set videos, the one on top of the car?
It kind of looks like it's on top of something clear...
Could it really be that minicon? I can see the bird-like features to it as well.
Sorry for being off-topic on this post but thought I'd bring it to your attention.
OOOOPS!!!!!!! 4got to say the showest after party
ReplyDeleteYea while watching the first movie, the last time I watched the Blackout part, the Scorpinok part, the Bumblebee vs. Barricade part etc. I skipped all human scenes except the part at the house where the Autobots sneak into the yard while Sam tries to cover for them.
ReplyDeleteWell, this is worse than the transforming candy box I'd have to say, but not bad. Stackterion ROFL at that ! Each chicken tender could be the vague shape of each Constructicon and they can be jigsaw puzzle style put together to form Devastator lol.
linariel
ReplyDeletei just that post too, good link.
@ the link that linariel posted, it says that bb had a tantrum lol and destroyed half the house and now in garage. that funny
ReplyDeleteyeah that site confirms what we already knew - that skids and mudflap combine. also says that the hieroglyphics in the pyramids are actually pictures of Transformers, which is pretty cool.
ReplyDelete"The movie actually opens before the pyramids were built. We tie the Transformers into the beginnings of civilisation."
ReplyDeleteawesome!
FYI, I posted about the Empire trailer breakdown yesterday here:

- TFLive
oh, how did i miss that?
ReplyDeletewait... TFLive... r u the dude who owns the blog? and now things are slowly looking brighter for the heroic autobots with more combiners. skids n mudflap face look like the last shit i took lol but when they combine there bad ass and id like to see the face become normal lol
ReplyDeletethe first movie is actually very boring except for the few scenes dealing the transformers.
ReplyDeletethink Bay said the problem was budget. and on his budget he couldn't use robots as much as was wanted.
^^ya i agree^^ this film's udget is huge compared to the first tfs. this time around theres apparently a quarter of the movie is just talking and crap like that but the rest is action hell ya!!! :-)
ReplyDeletethis is off topic butt my backround is me at the NY autoshow under BB
ReplyDelete"think Bay said the problem was budget. and on his budget he couldn't use robots as much as was wanted."
ReplyDeleteThat and many of the studio execs wanted a robot invasion movie where the Transformers didn't even talk, much less have individual personalities. Thankfully, Hasbro, Bay and the writers/producers managed to convince them otherwise (partially).
Also, if Bay really wanted to cut costs, he could have simplified the designs just a touch, and not be all OMG 10000 MOVING PARTS
what background are you talking about Bonecrusher?
ReplyDeleteBonecrusher Rolling been talking a hell lots of BS.
ReplyDeleteI dunno about you ladies, but that Stackticon sounds Decepti-licious. XD
ReplyDeleteMcat said "yeah that site confirms what we already knew - that skids and mudflap combine. also says that the hieroglyphics in the pyramids are actually pictures of Transformers, which is pretty cool.".
ReplyDeleteThough I've yet to see any hieroglyphics that look remotely similar to a TF...

Ravages Alt mode (A Submersable)

ROTF Books and game covers

Mini review:
The burger king promotion is lame. The only toy i would remotely want to see in a small version is Devastator. Ravages altmode is a neat idea but obviously just a quick add on. The covers are cool especially the game covers however i would have wanted to see a wider range of images other than just OP and The Fallen :)
Replying to Paul Des (And everyone else)
ReplyDeleteHere are the Hieroglyphics showing the TF`s in ancient times. For some insane reason there are Helicopters even though none of the TF`s had any other form other than there Protoform until they visited Earth or scanned something on there planet. Does this suggest evidence of Time travel so they could scan the Helicopter in the future and return to Egypt to fight. Well here s the Picture:

Till all are one :)
how would you know the TF dont have helicopters on Cybertron? go read the Defiance issued TF Prequel to the 2nd movie & you will learn that they already have Transformers who turns into jets in search of new suns to harvest the Allspark.
ReplyDeleteSurely if they have Seekers in jet mode they can also have it in helicopter mode.
@scorpy
ReplyDeletenice :) thought they made it up, though i think it wasn't really intended to look like that :)
or was it...
