I like how the picture says, "Megan Fox and Sam Witwicky..."

Saw it just now.

I'm a huge fan of the series, and I very much enjoyed the movie. It did drag a little, especially the whole Egypt thing, but I thought it was awesome.

Little less Megan Fox, little more Arcee next time plox. Hubba hubba.

I refuse to pay for this movie. The first transformers was incredibly horrible and this one only sounds worse. I realize a certain amount of chuckling can be provoked for judging a movie I haven't seen, but gold transmuting into jello would be a less significant change than the sequel turning into a decent movie.

It's not just the shiz writing. Shiz writing can be acceptable in certain situations. The problem is that for what is supposed to be an action movie touting its special effects Tranformers looks like shizno. The special effects all look very expensive, but none of it looks very good. It's like someone spent a trillion dollars modeling the most realistic looking computer generated blade of grass ever made and said "Look how amazing this is!" I don't give a damn how much you spent. The action sequences were boring and uninspired. The robots are exactly like Ebert described, a collection of scrap metal barely resembling anything.

I don't understand why so many people like this movie. I can understand ignoring ****** story for good special effects, but I can't understand ignoring ****** story for ****** special effects. I've seen independent films with better actions sequences.

One thing that really stuck out to me about this movie... Did it seem to anyone else like they skimped on the sound effects? I mean, I'm all for not having my ear drums blown out every time a giant robot slams into a building, but seriously... I recall several instances where there was a large explosion or something that should have made a big boom, and the noise was absent; meanwhile, Optimus Prime's speaking voice rang through the theater clear as day. It's great that we could hear him clearly, but it just seemed weird how they skipped so many sound effects.

Now it's all you'll notice. I'm sorry.

The new Star Trek Movie blows all of those other movies out of the water.

There's no need to have been a Trekkie, or just a follower of any of the series, or to have seen any of the original series. This is just simply the best science fiction movie that's been made for years. I spent the first hour and a half with goose-bumps going up and down my body.

Star Trek has a decent plot, but I don't know if it surpasses Constructicons. P.S. Usagi find some decent Transformer models for me to buy.

It's because John Turturro is the freakin' man.
His pa always said "Never trust a Hogwallop!"

This is basically the entire point. If you go into a Transformers film expecting anything other than some giant robots fighting each other, you will be disappointed. I mean, I don't rent The Piano expecting to see giant robots fighting, and then complain afterwards that the movie had no giant robots in it.

I can understand why you wouldn't like the film, but don't pretend that it's the film's fault. It has never advertised itself as anything other than a giant robot smackdown with as little plot as necessary to tie the giant robot fights together.

Saw it about a week ago.

I loved it, some parts of it were so funny...stone mum at uni? LOL

Today I bought a mini Bumblebee toy for my desk today, it looks pretty cool. I would like a metal version, but this one will do for now. =D

That part would have been funnier if she actually acted stoned... Then again, where can I get brownies that do that work like that..? Haha =P
