Agreed. I think i heard three cuss words total. That's still unnecessary, but it's better than most movies nowadays.


I like DOTM, but my favorite movies of the year are Rise of the Planet of the Apes, Super 8 and Captain America. Those movies had a charm, and certain aspects of the main characters that I just adored, that was missing in DOTM. Closest thing that I could think of as charming characters in DOTM would be Brains and Wheelie! We needed more of that with the Transformers, not just them doing cool things and speaking the obvious. I'd like the next movie to explore just a little bit on what they think of their new home, and how they feel to being in second in command on the planet.


Agreed. DOTM felt rushed to me.

Harry Potter aside (because it was always going to win by default) ... this would easily be movie of the year for me.

Frankly when Oscar nominations roll around, I want to see Caesar nominated for Best Actor.

I feel sorry for Tom Felton though, spent years playing a douchebag, and his first role out of Harry Potter and he still plays a douchebag. Image

Saw it a few weeks ago. I was bored. I liked it, but I was bored. There was only one explosion in the entire movie.

The Emmy's are for TV. It's the Oscars he will be nominated for.

Notice that I used the word 'will.'

I guess TF is good at playing a douchebag.

And it's not just that. The movie was totally predictable. I never saw the originals, so IDK if they have a connection in diologue, but I knew what everyone was going to say before they said it. I knew everything that was going to happen before it happened. At least DOTM had creative diologue. "Raise your hand if you had a psyco ninja copier try to kill you today!" See? Who would have thought of that? I certainly didn't. But in this movie, I knew everything before it happened. That's what made it boring for me. But I did still like it though. It's hard to make me not like a movie.

Exactly. That movie teased me. It showed images of robots, and there was only about 1 (small)explosion the entire movie. Even the story was ass. There's no way in hell abandoning earth will be a bad thing! Plus the only time I laughed the entire movie was when all those fat people where rolling down the side of the ship. My family and I feel asleep watching that movie in theaters. I wasted my 13th birthday on that crap. :evil: At least that's the day I got Animated Voyager Optimus.

Do you go to a movie on every birthday?
