Transformers movie!

Thankfully, TP proved I'm not the only one who thought the animated movie was better. This one was too...err...Hollywoody...if that's a word
I paid $20 for this movie and I thought most of it went to waste. Only the last half-an-hour was worth it.

I agree with just about everything said thus far haha. I'm a bit late commenting, but I had been busy with work and playing on xbox live. This movie had exactly what I expected. Not so great plot, but amazing visuals. I know they did build the robots for a few scenes, but I think we can all agree there's nowhere in the movie where you are thinking "that's so fake.." If nothing else this movie must be respected for action scenes and visual effects.

I thought the movie was okay, but I don't believe it lived up to all of the hype it received even months before the film was released.

I'm just glad to see that kid Shia LaBeouf growint out of the whole Even Stevens acting role.

why does everyone hate the plot of Transformers so much? of course it's fiction, but I thought they did a good job, adapting it to today's world... I dunno, just my opinion

i sit true nest toy movie is gi joe

wtf did you just say ?!?!?

it was horrible

Is This Easter Sunday........?

Lord knows, there's been a resurrection!

Anyway, Dude, (or dudette, as the case may be), that's harsh.

Since this was an adaptation of a comic book, the story line followed the classic morality tale of the battle of good versus evil, plus the special effects were categorically excellent.
Someone mentioned earlier that they only went to see Megan Foster, they certainly have a valid point. Perhaps the movie would have benefited from an upskirt shot of Ms. Foster. After all, that could be rationalized by writing FX next to it on the shot list.

In any event you, and everybody, have a Happy Thanksgiving! That of course is if you live in the colonies, (as I do). Oh heck, do it anyway.

captaincranky, don't you mean Megan Fox?

Yeah, What He Said.........

Well, I suppose I did.

"La boeuf" means "the beef" in French. This strikes me as somewhat ironic, since Shia "LaBoeuf" seemed like a prime candidate for an upskirt herself, er himself. Still, in spite of an "heroic" effort, he was unable to ruin the movie for me.

I further predict that Megan Fox's slash "Foster's" acting talent will place her in competition with Jessica Alba for an Academy Award one day. Oh baby, baby, that's some stiff competition! <(dual entendre and pun intended)> This is a bold prediction when you consider that Ms. Alba can generate as much or more interest by walking out of a scene as she can by walking into one.

Well, that'd depend on how clothed or -er- how unclothed she is.

Is That a String Variable, or a String Bikini.....?

OK, I suppose it's a given that neither Megan Fox or Jessica Alba compare favorably with respect to acting ability with say, Katherine Hepburn, Dame Judith Dench or even Meryl Streep. Still, you do have to consider the exuberance of youth. By this I mean that none of the foregoing "real actresses" would fill out Jessica's costume in the fantastic four. Fast forward a couple of years to Ms Alba's first Botox treatment, after which I'm sure that she will be much more expressive walking away. This assumes of course that she doesn't embrace southwestern cuisine or Jennifer Lopez doesn't write a cookbook.

To pull this thread further off topic, (not maliciously of course), I watched "Live Free or Die Hard" last night. In spite of the fact I wasn't certain I'd like it, I enjoyed it thoroughly. Maggie Quigley is scorching hot, although this treatise on cyber-terrorism probably could have benefited by allowing her talent to "shine" with say, a Jacuzzi scene. You can catch Ms.Q in "Naked Weapon", sort of a cult classic martial arts flick.

Anyway, how much of the computer hacking in that movie do you think could actually be accomplished? Could anybody pull off a "fire sale"? Should we start a poll?

enjoyed the movie, thought it was pretty good. better than most other films on at the time.

hell yea, im gonna watch this movie tonite before i sleep!!
