Ok. I saw it twice. It was so good even my older sister went and seen it both times. (Just cause it was just that damn good. This movie lives up to the original transformers and delivers updated ideas to the mighty bots of my childhood. I left there feeling 9 years old. I only wish it could last longer. I mean when do you dream of Semi’s and Jets fighting? I had to fight the urge of running out of the theater singing the theme song on the way out. I mean If i am gay for transformers then I guess I need to wave the flag. a rainbow colored autobot symble. I say it loud and proud. if you think transformers sucked you obviously aren’t into cars or big explosions. (and if i heard it right most men agree, They like to blow shit up and they like horsepower.) And trust me when a robot gets decapitated it’s even better!!! so for everyone else well you already know!!! the most important things in a guy flick are (in no preticular order) Hot women, fast cars. Big explosions, and any of the fore mentioned in multiply combinations!!! So Mr, Bay if you read this… Keep it coming!!! Thank you sir, can I have another.

I always thought the show was cheesy, the animation was lousy, the level of fandom surrounding it peculiar, and the overall concept of robots that change into other things was just plain stupid.

But if there’s a gay factor, I’ll check it out.

Hey Joel, my dick turns into a robot. It’ll totally fight your Throatimus Prime. And win!

If susie leaves you…will u have me? I keep running around the house singing “TRANSFORMERS More than meets the EYE..TRANSFORMERS (pause) ROBOTS in disGUISE” the last word of which me and my brother and I would get into rock em sock ems as he kept arguing it was “robots in the skies”…dork.

Anyway, my 8 yo son is getting really annoyed with me singing it over and over and shows no interest and HE’S on the autistic spectrum. I mean, where did I go wrong? BTW, lame ass neighbors. I mean GOD, I bet you sat through their hand job of how much they loved Don DeLilo’s latest “wtf is he talking about?” book.

When it comes to movies, I can be a pretty liberal guy. I like cheese (ie Grindhouse) and I like the uber-serious shit (like Pi). But this movie…i just don’t know.

I’ve sworn to all in my vicinity that I’m boycotting Transformers and Die Hard 4, because they look horrendous. The character designs - her it comes - raped my childhood. Star wars fanboys, my anus feels your pain.

Now if Bay was to do a MACROSS movie, I would see that shit without question.

I went to see this movie on a sneak preview ticket last night and let me just say how increadibly awesome it was.

I know I’m right in that age group that was asking for all the toys at the height of popularity back in the 80’s… something that people who are older than me don’t really seem to understand here at work. Somehow that means the movie was catering to ME and my friends directly, so I guess you could say my review is a little biased.

I went into the theater not expecting much. I had seen the new trailers and decided that it looked like it COULD be pretty good, but I didn’t want to get my hopes up.

Well, I was just blown away. The story was pretty good, the effects were amazing, the girl was HOT, and the ending didn’t have a plot hole you could drive Optimus Prime through.

I actually went out to my car, got inside and felt something that I haven’t felt for 20 years… a longing for the car to turn into a 30 foot tall robot. I liked it.

I saw the movie last night.
I was a fan of the series. After seeing the episodes on youtube I laughed a lot. Not as good as I remember. However the movie was an absolute blast. I went in knowing I was going to hate it and came out entertained. I spent all last night dreaming of robots kicking the shit out of each other. I might go and see it again :)

I saw it last night. It blew chunks.

Great visual effects, awful, awful, awful story.

Cringeworthy dialogue…..ah hell I won’t say anything more, you’re all going to see it anyway.

Just be warned.

I left feeling …. numb…..afterwards.

Michael Bay raped my childhood!

Wow, the article from slate about being gay if you liked the film 300 and now this! I can’t wait for the Transformers movie either…but I’m not gay. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
