JW i agree...but it did poorly this weekend. Hopefully there are more people like you and me and the movie will find its legs at the boxoffice. Kinda unlikely though, oh well, I'll see it again. It's not like Bay will stop getting work, his last five films were gigantic sucesses.

Well I thought it was pretty good. Was it just me or did it seem to be about 4 1/2 hours long?

It was entertaining, which is all any Michael Bay movie can aspire to be... But, I really am kind of pissed off I had to pay to watch it seeing how it was so obviously a two hour long commercial for Puma, XBox, MSN, Cadillac, and Aquafina. Just to name a few.

I can't wait to see which brand of gasoline my favorite Transformer prefers, I'll be sure to only use that brand because they were the company willing to give Michael Bay the most money.

elliott...

i watched it a couple times at the theatre i work at. from its opening till today its only grossed 12 million, surprisingly low to me.

i think people should get off the fact that its directed by bay, and go and watch a summer blockbuster

i would like to see the results if bay didn't put his name in any of the advertising for the movie. would more people watch it? or less? because i think the only reason people are avoiding this movie is because of the name "Michael Bay"

I think your average movie-goer doesn't know who Michael Bay is. I'm really not one to make that judgment, though, as I don't have television and the only regular subjection to advertisement I suffer is looking at billboards.

I think the low gross of this movie reflects that (a) the film industry has been faltering recently and probably won't see the same revenue it's known for awhile, and (b) audiences today seem to be only interested in remakes, for some reason.

I know whats up with the remake thing, its making me sick

Yay remakes! Cmon, am I the only guy that thinks every original idea can be made better with large-breasted women in tight skimpy outfits?
