I may be the only person here who actually paid to see this (not in 3D).

I have to admit I found some parts viscerally engaging in that "Oh Damn! How are they gonna get out of THIS one!?" way, completely forgetting that any movie a 14-year old kid uses the words "So Amazing" to review is rife with deus ex machina.
I suppose they upped the stakes by *spoiler alert* killing off a couple of the Transformers.

All in all, yeah, it's as full of cliches, plot-holes and racism as you think it is where every moment is, according to the music, the MOST IMPORTANT MOMENT OF THE ENTIRE FILM. And every badguy is THE MOST DANGEROUS BAD-GUY IN THE ENTIRE FILM---WELL AT LEAST FOR THESE 8 SECONDS HE'S ONSCREEN.

If you like seeing Major Cities Pulverized and hearing a music cue from U2, John Mayer or Ben Lee every so often, often within a glossier-than-a-commercial-or-music-video montage, go see it.

if any of you wished to see this nonsense:

it was admittedly my first 3d film since the big push however many years ago. seemed to me that 45+ minutes desperately needed to be gutted (including, but not limited to, the jar jar binks versions of the markIII from mgs4). 2 or 3 mini-sequences were pretty worth seeing though. i dunno. bay sat in the seat directly behind me and leaned over to the edge and assured him: "dont worry, it starts a little slow but it'll get going..."

what.

lol the edge wtf.

I live near regal, and i didn't even know there was tm3 event for it :shock:. then again i don't go to theaters at all since all of them around me, even the far away ones suck. they all show the same stuff all the time really. Nothing like L.A or NY  :yabbse-undecided:

Great video i must say though bluejay  :yabbse-grin:. I liked the switch to 2.35 and the opening and closing music shots lol.

anyway it was after i posted my first serious fanalysis. after the long post all he could say was that the main reason he wanted to see the master was cos of all the red heads.
:P

So I confirmed today it's actually just Dark of The Moon. Bay must be writing titles now.
He held on. The dolphin and all the rest of its pod turned and swam out to sea, and still he held on. This is it, he thought. Then he remembered that they were air-breathers too. It was going to be all right.

man, i wish he leaped over the edge. maybe i didn't like this at all because i didn't see the first two? nah.
