I'm thinking we can blame our beloved Disney for this 8pm crap, since they started the recent trend by doing that with POTC:AWE.

That being said, I'm too old to stay up for midnight showings, so I appreciate the fact that I'll be seeing the flick at tonight's 8pm. I'm going in expecting/hoping for a fun summer blockbuster full of giant robots blowing stuff up action. I'd like it to be more than that, but then i remind myself that the show was always just a really cool toy comercial. I mean, even killing off so many characters in the '86 film was just a means of clearing the way for the new line of toys.

Speaking of the '86 film... I had friends over to watch it last night as an apetizer for tonight's movie outing... cause we're all just a bunch of geeks.
