So.... who the hell is gonna go see Transformers 2 when it comes out?
Anyone?
-
*Crickets*
-
I'm taking my nephew to see it on Thursday.
-
I couldn't even sit through the entirety of the first hunk of shit. No way Jose.
-
I watched some of Transformers 1 the other day and it reminded me why I'm not the least bit interested in Transformers 2:
-Too much pointless junk that should have been cut out
-Horrible attempts at "humor", most of which consists of either "Parents are embarrassing", "Pee is hilarious", or "LOL black people actin' all crazy LOL"
-Shia LaBeouf at his most annoying
-SMH product placement
And all reviews so far point to Transformers 2 being the same as Transformers 1 only longer
-
Likely going to see it on Thursday. Some friends want to drive all the way out to the Mall Of Georgia to see it at the IMAX, but I don't think Transformers is worth the drive plus higher ticket prices. The first Transformers was an enjoyable summer "popcorn" flick and did an admirable job of bringing one of my favorite 80s toy lines to life as a decent enough movie, so I'm definitely going to see the second.
-
I watched the first one in a bootlegged screener while spending 12 hours in a hospital waiting room and I still thought that it was horrible waste of my time. I agree with Great Rumbler where they should have dropped nearly all attempts at "writing" humor and plot but I think that they also needed to extend the action scenes by at least an hour.
Also, is Megan Fox the new hollywood pedo bait? She's certainly not ugly but I'm guessing her fanbase is mostly just very young and old males who want more cleavage shots in PG13 movies.

I saw it on friday.
It was like the first one but with the stupidity and eye-numbing, brain-melting visual orgasm amplified to an even higher degree. It is the closest you can get to someone bashing your head with a gong-cymbal and assaulting your senses with loud, crass, metallic noises.
And it goes on for twelve hours. Or what feels like it.
Michael Bay has no mercy on your soul. It is as if you're stuck in a coma having a waking nightmare (that goes on and on) where you are being subject to the worst of the possible elements. Everytime you look you see fucking little dogs humping big dogs, a giant brass robot ballsack above you etc,etc... Shia Lebouf trying to act possessed and mystical but coming off like someone with asperger's and an acute condition of tourette's.
Michael Bay has about as much grasp on comedic timing that his films have sense, rhythm or pace - which is no a lot. It was as if an 8 year-old penned the most annoying, shallow, unfunny and downright distinguished mentally-challenged script of the year. Add that to a director who feels like he as an outright disdain for his audience, spraying visual/auditory diarrhea all over your receptors and you've got the most migraine inducing experience of the year.

I would if I actually went to movies.
-
:rofl Funniest thread this year.
-
I've hated Michael Bay since Bad Boys II. Which means, yes, I didn't learn my lesson from Pearl Harbor.
-
Transformers 2 is longer than the first??! Hoooooooly shit.

Bad Boys 2 may or may not have ended a few friend relationships for me. They keep insisting it's good.
-
bad boys 2 was a decent dumb fun movie. there's at most 15 minutes with no shooting or driving. Transformers was just suck.
-
I'll probably go see it on Wed. There's a good chance I will regret this decision.
-
I don't remember ranting in the Star Trek thread lol
Thanks anyway :-*
- I find that Michael Bay brings out the best of my critical appraisel in his work. Those extra toilet breaks I have to take during the film really help me consider and evaluate on his output.
-
I'll probably go see it on weed There's a good chance I will regret this decision.
Fixed for higher enjoyment.
-
Probably not. The first one wasn't that bad to me.. it was just a lot of effects, which I usually like. But I'm really not that interested in Transformers. I was never even really interested in the original. So, eh.
-
i'll watch it on tv next year.
-
so it seems that its a split movie. some will go see it some wont. I think I'll go see it this weekend at least.
-
never seeing this atrocity
-
no thanks.

Sounds like another winner! :hyper
