Still, if we could just get some softcore scenes of Megan Fox, it'll all be worth it.
No, she didn't save T2. She's so last year. Only one beauty could have saved T2:

I liked the first, the second was okay, if a little cheap on the way the redid the Prime story and with a final battle way to short after the way they hyped up the fallen.
I'll be looking forward to three, hopefully now the 'fallen' silliness is out of the way, it'll be back on track with Megatron and Starscream as the main antagonists.

Anuvver fing - when they do sumfing, they try to make it look like somfink else to confuse everybody. When one of them wants to lord it over the uvvers, 'e says "I'm very speshul so'z you gotta worship me", or "I know summink wot you lot don't know, so yer better lissen good". Da funny fing is, arf of 'em believe it and da over arf don't, so 'e 'as to hit 'em all anyway or run fer it.

Ummm... no. No amount of fake pr0n is going to make that movie any better than it tried to be. Less than 5 minutes of "insert sex here"... is... utter fail.
Are you not aware of the libraries of pr0n available in a dozen and a half different ways? Well, seeing as you are being sarcastic... I will NOW... laugh.
Hah... Hah... Haha... Now John hates me too .
Seriously though, all softcore is a waste of time. I go to the beach and see better stuff than that cloptrop.

Honestly I hit Megan Fox overload halfway through the first movie. Alright, she's hot, I get it. What else have you got? I don't see the appeal when she's plastered all over every flipping girly mag at Wal-Mart and starring in movies whose sole purpose is to play off of her sexuality( Really? The name of the movie is Jennifers Body? Her BODY? Wow thats not obvious at all).
(I have no idea what the name of her character is in that movie; I tuned the trailers out after I saw her face in them.)

Much better for your purposes I am sure.

Nah, I think the pic is blocked for one reason or another. I find it slightly comical, but hey, it is their property I guess. This is the reason we need serious image archives, as a matter of fact, I should just take a few hours to find something of relatively appropriate value. With advertising devouring the interwebs, you'd think that this kind of thing would be feasible. Oh, well, at least we have Hulu in the states I suppose.
At any rate though... this post has been brought to you by a very sexy fruit bowl... oh man, that thing is mad sexy. Gimme a minute people, I just need a minute with this fruit bowl.

The reason I did not like it is because I simply could not follow what the feth was going on, and no amount of CGI makes up for poorly planned fight scenes. Giant robots or no, Transformers 2 was simply not Evangelion. Which, in all honesty, I got a bit bored with as well.

Nice, good to see another deserved sequel. Sure TF2 has its typical Michael Bay faults but it was great for this Transformers fanboy. It was entertaining and the special effects were incredible (fun fact, ILM's computers overheated to the point of melting at the big end sequence).
TF2 was nothing more than an entertaining if typical summer blockbuster which is a guilty pleasure even moreso if it makes a successful adaptation of a beloved franchise. IMAX ftw as well.
I liked the challenge of trying to follow the movements of the machines in the fight scenes. The movie on the whole was unbearably stupid, however, and I couldn't stand how dense the humour was.

The first Transformers film was really good fun. There were too many characters and the plotting was a lot more convoluted than it needed to be but the action scenes were first rate and there were some genuinely funny moments.
The second film was simply horrendous. Absolutely, hands down the biggest wasts of talent and money that I’ve seen. I’ve seen worse movies, but they were ultra-low budget affairs made with a lot of enthusiasm and no talent. This film had a talented cast, first rate effects and a director who, for his many, many failings, certainly has a gift for spectacle.
But no cast could make that dialogue work. No amount of spectacle could distract from the ludicrously convoluted, nonsensical plotting. And the detail and quality of the effects just don’t matter when the director wasn’t capable of framing the action scene so we knew which robots were shooting at what other robots.
But it made $800 million at the box office, so of course there’s going to be a third one. Maybe this time, without the writer’s strike, they won’t resort to Bay himself writing the script.

“We may observe that the government in a civilized country is much more expensive than in a barbarous one; and when we say that one government is more expensive than another, it is the same as if we said that that one country is farther advanced in improvement than another. To say that the government is expensive and the people not oppressed is to say that the people are rich.”
