i'm afraid I might get nautious watching it, is it really all over the place with machine parts flying every which way so that sometimes you can't tell what's going on, or focus on anything?

A coworker was at Botcon with his wife and she actually did get nauseous and nearly threw up once.

I think they use the blurry/shakey stuff to blend the CG robots into the real environments.

So... beware. Especially of the second half.

I was also bothered by the busyness of the robot designs. Too spikey and pointy all over, even the autobots. And I'm sure the CGI guys did a lot of really hard work on the transforming scenes, but speaking of busy- jeez. You couldn't tell what the hell was happening while they were transforming.

But I thought it was a really good movie. Bay's first actual good movie since The Rock, in fact.

I am more than happy to pay full price a second time within the week. Haven't been able to say that about a movie in a long time, especially one I was worried about.

Someone told me that they took into account every single part of a real car/truck/tank/copter when they made the bot forms. My question? WHY? THESE ARE ALIEN ROBOTS THAT SHOULD BE RUNNING ON ENERGON!

The Bumblebee engine scene bugged me that way too. IM(NSH)O all that was an illusion created for the humans just like the outer later (you know what scene I'm talking about).
