Transformers 2

My only other complaint was the distinct lack of Transformer interaction and dialogue. For a movie called Transformers, they felt more like a guest-stars to a movie about them. I'm looking forward to the sequels, but I'd like less High School drama, even though I liked Shia.

I see a lot of people complaining about this as well, and, the only thing I can agree on is that scene where an autobot launches himself over a woman who, in slow motion, is screaming I guess. While she certainly did look retarded, that was the only unecessary thing I saw in the film.

A lot of people wanted more action, more autobot time, but this had just as much action in it as any spider-man movie, or X-men movie honestly. Old school transformers fans still enjoyed the movie, it's the psycho's that think the movie was a complete fucking tradgedy because bumblebee wasn't a beetle, there was TOO much human interaction/drama/whatnot who I think are out of line.

I'll roffle if one of those people I mentioned above say that they LOVED Superman Returns for all that it was. Shit, the little 3 year old had more actions scenes than Superman.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

The only thing I could agree on with the Transformers not having much personality would be in the decepticon area. The filler ones (like blackout, Bonecrusher, scorpinok) didn't seem to have anything except "Kill Kill Kill" but I think they spent enough time developing the autobots pretty well. Bumblebee especially, but even with the other autobots as well.

Though having Jazz as a stereotypical black man was a bit overboard. Still funny.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
