Transformers 2 Sucked!!!
Just came back from Transformers 2.

First off the movie was rushed! Outside of the action scenes the movie dragged on! There was at least an hour of the film that should have been edited out.

I was really falling asleep on some scenes.

Acting? What fucking acting? There was none. One liners all through the film. Cliche after cliche? How many times can Sam fall down and come close to death only to be saved by exploding something or the other.

They fixed some of the fight scenes, but overall they still looked like piles of junk rolling together when they fought.

The story seemed like 6-7 films smashed together. Comedy, action film, love story, family film, war movie. The movie went in all directions and they didn't even explain shit really till 3 quarters into the film.

OVERALL I give this hot pile of steaming "robo-shit" a -10.

Michael Bay go kill yourself!!!

*And I can't believe I'm about to say this, I can't believe it....part 1 was actually better.

I threw up after watching part 1. You are allowed to drink whiskey in the theaters here..lol

I did laugh at Hangover..that was a nice surprise.

I thought transformers 2 might be better than one but haven't seen it yet.

Well it sure has been hyped enough, hasn't it?!!!

Gee, you don't have to be so angry about it. So vulgar. I seen bad movies in my time too but you make it seem the movie slapped your wife or something. Go see Ice Age 3, I am sure that will be much better.

Just got back myself... have 2 agree, what a waste of cash and time. Everything about it was bad.

roger ebert's review of it is beautiful, though:

$$ grab.....the old franchise non-sense. There was NO reason 2 make this one. I liked the 1st one though.

Graycap23 said:

totally agree.


I'm also feeling the same way about Alice in Wonderland.


I do hope Burton does a good job though.

I havent read any posts cos they might have spoilers.
Could the thread title be edited if they are spoilers please?
cheers

was really looking forward to it too

Anxiety said:

After reading that review (which has many spoilers) I'm not taking the kids. It seems to be a trend now that the previews are always 10 times better than the actual movie.

I'm an old school nerd. I can't stand the new franchise. I don't even accept it as part of the Transformers movement for the simple fact that it's commercialized. Freakin phone ads and sodey pop ads and everything else. Burger King I can deal with. Back in the day, Transformers had some serious toys out.

This is a tragedy...lol. I figured it was too soon. I will be seeing Ice Age 3 instead.

hell, i'm holding out for the julia child movie. i'd rather watch meryl streep transform some lettuce and tomatoes into a nice salad.

It's based on a cartoon/toy, what the hell do you expect?

I'm excited to see it for the amazing CGI.

JustErin said:

Exactly!

I actually liked it. Not much as I liked the 1st one, but still

JustErin said:

this is like if someone grossed out watching me eat a big old piece of poop on toast and i was all, "it came out of my butt, what the hell do you expect!"

i think i'd just as soon not eat the poop.

Anxiety said:

Well, there you go. If movies based on a toys and a childrens' cartoon are not your thing, you know not to go.

I would know better than to actually watch you eat shit. I mean, I think you're pretty cute and all but ya, no.

JustErin said:

well, okay, thanks, but if you walked in the room and i was in the middle of poop-eating and you freaked out and i said "what do you expect, it came out of my butt!", would you be all like "oh, good point anx! carry on! "

that's all I'M trying to say.

I think seeing a Michael Bay movie & NOT expecting it to suck is just silly

I did not like the first one. The editing was so bizarre and choppy. I couldn't make any sense of what I was seeing... When I could see they special effects they were awesome.

coolcat said:

the first one gave me a headache and it made my ears ring.

the second one makes me talk about eating poop, and i haven't even seen it yet.

Anxiety said:

Did you see Southland Tales? They kept talking about poop in that movie.

coolcat said:

you know, i netflixed that movie and i didn't even put it in the machine before i sent it back.

Anxiety said:

If I knew you were a poop eater, I'd have no reason to complain and I'd be stupid to walk in knowing the risks of seeing your shit eating ways.

JustErin said:

i wasn't a poop eater until i started talking about transformers 2, which brings me back to my original point!

Anxiety said:

It's ok, embrace the feces-fests, you're still pretty hot.
