Did you say a character was named Wheelie in this movie? WHEELIE!? Oh dear God...NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you Michael Bay for giving me and Transformers fans a new reason to hate Wheelie.
Being a genocidal maniac is not one of my turn ons.

Is it weird to hear the Safety Dance in my head watching Game of Thrones?

Did someone say Megan Fox's ass?

Not I kind sir.


And oh my God....the guy that did the voice of Spongebob was the voice of one of the racist stereotype Autobots. I mean he does a great Chris Latta style Starscream, but why did he have to lend his voice to what is basically one half of a robotic styled Jar Jar Binks type character team?

Tom Kenny is a great voice actor.
He was also Wheelie. The entire time I couldn't stop thinking about Ratbert whenever he talked

um....

HOWEVER, Tom Kenny does play a few characters on Futurama. Mostly one time characters and Yancy Fry.

I generally don't like Bay's flicks, but he was a good match for Transformers, IMHO.

Exactly! And, think about it this way, folks: The more Michael Bay makes Transformers sequels, the more he stays away from everything else.

Actually, I think the opposite. He is a horrible match for anything that could be cool. For God's sake, he remade Clonus:The Parts Horror, and made it even worse!

You're making my argument for me. I'd much rather have another Transformers movie than The Island II.

*Parts: The Clonus Horror.

Up next: I correct everyone's spelling and grammer!

Transformers could have been cool*. The remake of Clonus could not.

*Even if you liked Bayformers, you would have liked it as much if not more had it been made by a competant fimmaker.

My point is, Transformers is such a slight premise that you really don't need an auteur to bring it to the big screen. I'd rather good directors focus on other stuff.

I guess we'll find out. Bay's had it with Transformers. He even said he's had it with explosions, but I don't think he can stay mad at explosions. :^)

Yes, but I've read fanfiction from people who write Trabsformers stories for fun that are better than what Bay's done for the franchise.
