doesnt Francis Ford Coppola have an upcoming film this year?

i liked it a lot, tho the one thing that did irk me is that we didnt actually get a prolonged focused megatron vs optimus battle.

its this decade's (or semi decade's) Independence Day for sure.

erm, its not THAT deep.

btw, how will the sequel top it when the action is already this huge?

it wasnt fast, the climactic battle was just...random violence. shapeless really. a surprising failing from Bay, you'd expect him to excel in action usually.

No it was just bad scripting/storyboarding. The climactic battle had no shape. It was just clips of (cool looking) random violence stitched together. There was no flow and ebb or strategy involved.

yea...clogging up the counters for ppl like me who just wanted to watch Die Hard

Oh dear, I enjoyed it much much less on the 2d viewing. The jokes which fell flat the first time around become almost unbearable in round 2, and the muddled climactic battle is a huge letdown once you get over the 'wow' effect of seeing it the first time around. All in all though I'd still say there's enough to give it a thumbs up (I'm trying not to let Megan Fox influence my thinking here ). This will continue to make money at the BO, but its plainly clear on the second viewing that it doesnt have enough to make it a minor pop culture phenomenon like Jurassic Park, or Independence Day.

I didnt, it was a free pass. and I went 3 times for Jurassic Park and ID4.




Megan Fox, and the aforementioned free ticket.

Independence Day isnt forgotten!! Its still awesome entertainment. Hard to find a better big dumb summer blockbuster. Its a 'classic'.
