You need to learn what is a good game and what isn't.

The Transformer game is clearly in the "Not Good" category.

Megonton was some kind of alien space ship.  He never had time to morph into something from earth being frozen for so long.  I have the Xbox360 game and that is what they say he is.



Ps.  The video game sucks!!!!:cry

Before this, it was wave after wave of 1960s movies because baby boomers were the biggest generation.  And peppered throughout all of this was a constant shower of WWII movies because IT invoked nostalgia for a bunch of people too.

Nostalgia is the real story here, not the fact that it's a movie based on a toy or cartoon.


I think you pegged it. My oldest, 33, is eager to see it.

When the crowd breaks out into thunderous applause within the first half hour of the film you know they did something right.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

So far it's getting worse reviews than the new die hard movie. A movie in which the antagonists are hackers who kill people by making their pc's explode lmao.

YEA i say it, the movie was amazing and the animation on the robots was breath taking.  There was also many funny parts.

Movie critics are out of touch with the average movie goer. I remember when they were ripping on Star Wars [the first one] when it first came out and it was the biggest hit ever when it came out.

The new Die Hard was great.
