Transformers 3 : Dark of the Moon

---------------------------------------------------------
Already watched TF3 in 3d. Well I think the TF franchise is at
an end and all I can say is that all 3 movies were "really in a
hurry". Mr. Bay cramped them all up for almost 6hrs in total.
the script was like: "we need to have a fast-paced scene then,
have a comedic moment and a fast-paced battle scene again". I
was also disappointed that my fave character Soundwave got a
5min screentime. Another disappointment was that Megatron
wasn't the same character I used to know. He became useless. How
sad. Lastly, the new girl sucked big time. All i see is a sexy
body and a head full of collagen lips. Megan Fox is still the
ultimate TF babe.
the movie was fine but not as good as I wanted it to be. out of
5 stars, I'll give it a 2.5.

I've never been a fan of Michael Bay. Personally, I think he is
a horrible film maker prone to having a serious hard-on for
explosions and car chases. Sure, the dude makes nice eye candy,
but at a cost: no story. I have yet to get around to watching
any of the Transformer films. I hear a lot of negative stuff and
that it's more of the same things that I despise about Bay that
I don't know if I will ever see them. But what I have heard is
that most people are saying that T3 is the best of the bunch.
What that means, I don't know. Best eye candy? Certainly not the
best "Plot-driven, character piece".

FYI, Megan Fox was the only reason I was even thinking about
checking out the first 2 Transformers. ;)

It's the frikkin' Transformers for Christ's sake. It's a movie
based on a cartoon that was based on Toys. Basically, it was a
half hour toy commercial that was turned into 3-2.5 hour car
commercials. Why is a story even an issue here ? Michael Bay is
the smartest guy in the room if people keep ragging on him and
his movies still keep making hundreds of millions of dollars. To
paraphrase Obi Wan Kenobi from Star Wars eps.4 ," Who is the
fool ? The guy making the movie or the guy that keeps paying to
see them even though he thinks the guy making the movie is a
hack ? "
Oy.

I wanna see what Michael Bay does with the remake to My Dinner
With Andre. He will probably blow the table up along with
everyone in the resturant within the first 5 minutes. If he does
that, I will DEFINITELY pay to see it. ;D
FYI, I have never seen My Dinner With Andre, so pfftt!!! :P

I had lunch with a girl named Andrea, once. That's as close as I
ever got to My Dinner With Andre :D
It's interesting that when people rag on Bay, they only seem to
mention the Transformers films. The guy did Both Bad Boys
movies, The Rock and Armageddon, which was written by the
current flavor of the month, J.J Abrams. Oh yeah, The Island
was excellent. Pearl Harbor wasn't great but it was okay.
People should blame the Transformers as a concept for sucking,
not Michael Bay.
About the explosions and loud noises....They are 30ft robots for
Christ's sake. They aren't exactly going to be dainty. They will
break and blow up whatever they hit.

So are you endorsing that I see the Transformer movies? I
thought The Rock was pretty good with a decent enough story to
go along with the bangs. Bad Boys was good, Bad Boys 2 was not.
I caught Pearl Harbor on TV last week for the first time since I
saw it in the theater and it was much better than I remember it
being.

They are what they are and what they have always been billed as
: Big, loud, explosive popcorn movies. I enjoyed the first two
as such and don't expect any more from the third film.
I think it's silly when people argue a lack of story or plot for
something that is based on basically the idea of selling toys.
It's not like they called it Schindler's List starring Optimus
Prime.
:D :D :D

BTW, saw Stake Land tonight. Excellent. Very well made for a low
budget flick. Lot's of character and depth for a vampire flick.
I will try to post a review later this weekend.
