Transformers 2

Tonight I will dedicate this entire post to the movie Transformers 2 which I just recently saw earlier tonight in the cinema with a friend. I just have to say, if you haven't seen it yet, you really should, the movie itself is so horrible it's actually funny, I don't know where to start. I'll be spoiling alot in this post, you have been warned!

Usually I have low expectations towards sequels, the only sequel I'm looking forward to at the moment is Ironman 2 which may turn out to be good, but I won't dare to hope for much. However, it looks like they didn't even TRY to make Transformers 2 good, it is simply so horrible and so ridiculous in so many ways that I just had to learn to laugh after a while.

Now I don't know if you liked the first Transformers movie, but being a kid who grew up with the cartoon I was bound to like it, especially being the Optimus Prime fanboy that I am (come on, who wasn't at the time?). Besides I really think it was a great movie. This sequel had great potential, but it just decided to run it into the dirt, it started off kinda original, but then it just got more and more predictable deeper in and soon it got to the point where me and my friend could basically guess what was going to happen next with great probability of success.

Anyway, let's start writing the list of fail!

1: Usually Hollywood movies have a comic relief playing in them, personaly I don't understand why every god damn movie needs to have one since they are rarely funny and just dumbs down the entire movie and makes it more child friendly, this movie however had five of them, (seven if you count the parents, but I actually like them). I don't know why they decided to bring those horrible twin robots into the scripts with their "fo shizzle" language and constantly dry jokes, or that stupid idiot kid who I don't even remember the name of who constantly follows the main characters around whining that he doesn't want to be there (why can't he just leave?).

2: The Megatron rape scene, oh yes you heard me, Megatron basically tried to rape the main character, and I'm not kidding when I say this is a direct quote "It feels good touching your flesh". This scene just completely freaked me out, seeing Megatron pleasing himself by running his metal tentacles into Sam's brain and nose while obviously enjoying the heck out of it, I swear there's probably porn of it on the Internet already. I learned to laugh at it later on though, it just took some time.

3: Right in the middle of the final fighting scene between the autobots/humans and the decepticons, the entire thing was suddenly interrupted by a scene of Megan Fox running in slow-motion with her boobs bouncing up and down baywatch style. Now don't get me wrong, I have absolutely nothing against this, in fact it made the movie alot more enjoyable, but placing it in the middle of the final epic battle just made it extremely comical.

4: Lack of logic! Why on earth did they send a horribly slow and clumsy decepticon to climb on top of the pyramid and fire the weapon of doom that was supposed to destroy the world? Couldn't they just get Starcream to do it since he can transform into a freaking airplane? No they just had to let the slow one do it so that the humans had plenty of time to retaliate. And I also think its tragic how much worse the enemy robots have gotten at killing humans, child friendly much?

The movie had it's good points too of course and I don't regret watching it. The fight scenes are still as good if not better then in the first movie and if you like lots of explosions and stuff you'll probably have a good time watching it. And if you thought Megan Fox was sexy in the first movie you're gonna love her in this one. It is a bit funny to see how many scenes they actually have of her when she doesn't say or do a thing, just a nice close-up every now on then to remind you that she is still there. I actually don't think she did a single thing during the entire movie to change the plot.

Now I said I was going to dedicate this entire post to the movie, but I lied, I suddenly felt like talking about other things.

Finally I have two days of vacation from work, my boss actually did try to drag me into a big important meeting tomorrow even though its my day off, but I refused as politely as I could. I've been working for eleven damn days straight and I sure as hell ain't gonna show up one more day before I had some relaxation. It's gonna be funny to see how much money I've earned though, I'll get it somewhere around the 20'th and I expect a large nice sum.

My parents left the house and I'm all alone, I wonder if I'm gonna turn this place upside down or just relax alone in peace and quiet, I'm not sure what it will be, but I think it will be number two, I am simply too tired to do anything rash.

Now I think it is time to hit the bed.
