Miscellaneous Movie Musings

Because it was approximately 700 degrees here to day we decided that a trip to the drive-in might be a pleasant way to spend the evening.

Drive-in requires movie that is sure to be bad but might be fun bad (we don't want to subject a good movie to the much degraded viewing experience that is the drive-in). Only candidate was Transformers 2 so that's what we saw.

Not even a hint of good bad. Yes, I hated the first one. This one makes that one look like the pinnacle of summer blockbuster fare.

Borderline racist black stereotype transformers. Leg humping transformers. Transformer testicles. Robot mysticism. Transformer fights between machines even more indistinguishable than last time.

Remember last time how we went on and on last time about how stupid it was that the group left Hoover Dam and 10 minutes later were in downtoan LA? Well, this time they start out at (sorry, some might view this as a spoiler)

Spoiler:

Then there's this fine piece of badass calculus (this really is a spoiler)

Spoiler:

Megan Fox truly serves no purpose in this movie other than having boobs (aka tits, since I know some here prefer that word) and looking good in Daisy Dukes.

Truly, painfully bad. It is as bad an action movie as Godzilla was. Battlefield Earth was actually better than this movie.

Not a Mojave graveyard made to look like it might be in DC but actual desert with mountains in the background. Then there's this fine piece of badass calculus (this really is a spoiler) Spoiler: Way back in the day The Fallen was too strong for six Primes to defeat. In this sequel, Optimus Prime will be killed by The Fallen's second hand man. And yet Optimus Prime is so bad ass he can kill The Fallen.
