A quick review

[etherial]

Reasons to see Transformers 3 (in no particular order):
1. Giant Robots
2. Leonard Nimoy
3. Alan Tudyk
4. Sam was dumped by Mikaela (off-camera)
5. All of the technical achievements of TF2 without the raunchiness

Reasons not to see Transformers 3 (in no particular order):
1. Very long (2:37)
2. Fairly linear plot
3. Racefail (old stereotypes out, new stereotypes in)
4. Poor continuity
5. Terrible, Terrible Physics (worse than the '85 cartoon)

And if you do see it, don't bother with the 3D. That was a total waste of money.

I told my friends that I would go to see it for $5 but definitely not $10. I'm sick of all the humanpeople in these movies. Transformers is about fucking robots fighting the shit out of each other, damnit. Keep the crappy sci-fi romance garbo out of it :(

They did a lot less with the crappy human parts. Still about 20min too much of it for my tastes though.
