Bay did at least one interview where he talked about the characters of Sam's parents and how they made up that entire masturbation foolishness while shooting that scene - which pretty much goes to my whole "meatloaf" theory above. And would I mind you quoting me...? We're bloggers, pal, any day I <em>don't</em> get quoted - which is most days - I get sad and hard to live with all day!

I cringed and raged at the Optimus Prime line 'my bad'.

Tell me this, though. Of the people who love this movie, can they tell you exactly what was going on? Or can they explain the plot holes? I read a hilarious comment string the other day between several people who loved the movie - yet <em>they</em> couldn't even agree who was fighting whom in the climactic battle. "Was that Ironhide or Barricade who did blah blah blah" and "But I thought Devastator shot that missile thing and blew up the thing" - and again, this confusion is from Bay apologists who love the movie! There might be some bad movies that I like, but I'll bet I can reasonably explain the plots and the action setpieces to you without being confused about what exactly happened and who did what.

Thank you Alan for describing that knawing feeling I had in my gut. I thought I merely had to take a shit, but it is actually the residual effects of this huge clunker. Literally, I am being attacked by all of my friends and aquaintances, all of whom mysteriously loved this movie. Glad to see I do not stand alone!!! <a href="http://www.therecshow.com" target=blank rel="nofollow">www.therecshow.com</a> YES YES YES!!!!
