HAha riiiight?
I came out of that movie OFFENDED on so many levels.
The thing that REALLY gets my goat, aside from the expected stereotyping and racism, is all the BIOLOGICAL FUNTIONS mimicry. Transformers don't piss or have testicles or LAY FUCKING EGGS!

there were an awful lot of spit-takes and the like, honestly. even 'crying'? which I thought was patently absurd.

but yes. the non-stop george-lucas style short-handed stereotyping-verging-on-racism of people was just non-stop. What gives?

Oh wait, it's because the script was written by his 12 yearold fanboy cousin, wasn't it.... *face palm* It felt like bad fanfic, from start to end.

Yes, thank you. The only reason I watched this was for the RiffTrax.

The whole movie was pretty much a constant assault on all of my senses, not to mention my intelligence.

Like I said before: It should've been two hours of the NEST team being awesome, with Bumblebee and Optimus punting the twins into the sun right off. Or gee, I dunno, using the kick-ass CANON twins that Transformers has- Sideswipe and SUNSTREAKER. No, we just get Sideswipe, and then Mudflap and Skips.

Whyyyyyy, Michael Bay, whyyyyy?

Didn't Optimus fuse with some "old" dude who possibly had free-roaming genitals? Or was that yet another Transformer?

netflix.

so yes, indirectly twig has probably given michael bay 50cents for this horrible trope-gone-wrong. But unlike the first one, i doubt we'll ever buy this one for keepers. :-P the last one even with FFing through the cringe inducing moments stil had an hour's worth of footage worth watching.

This one?

I think we could reduce to 3 animated LJ icons.
