I figure, in the case of Bumblebee, they gave a nod to people with disabilities. With the support of another person, determination to fight on and the right gear, all of us can contribute! YAY!

I saw it last night. GREAT movie. Special effects carries the weight that the 2nd string actors can't, IMO.

spoilers
















No that was Devastator, the bot destroyed by bumblebee when he was shooting from the truck and mikalea was driving.

Barricade was still alive even though he got his *** kicked by bumblebee but you never see what happens to him.

bumblebee obviously didn't finish him off, as he was still in one piece, he's still on earth I assume, and I don't think they finished off starscream either, cmon sequel!

I liked it... but am I the only one who thinks the CG were (at times) over the top?

I mean, at times, the whole screen was spinning around and twirling into a mass of meaningless colors and explosions. Spining things spinning inside other spinning/falling/melting/exploding thing that was transforming and warping every little minute detail/pixel seemingly endlessly. I couldn't tell WTF was going on a few moments there.

I had to look away just to keep from getting sea sick.

It was a cool movie but WTF?...

Hydra makes a good point... I got sick of that stupid camera shaking. I know it's supposed to make you feel like you're "in the battle" but you just can't see wtf is going on. I hate it when that kind of cinematography is used in action films... it's just an excuse to do less rendering. PATHETIC!

BTW did anyone else think the song at the end of the movie fit Optimus Prime's little epilogue very well?

I guess so...

All that spinning/shaking... It reminded me of an occasion when I drank too much at a party one night. I was hung over laying on the bed spinning... watching the ceiling going around and around. It was making me sick so I put my foot out onto the floor to stop the bed from spining.

That experience was this movie. Only this time I had to look away from the silver screen to keep from spinning.

All that spinning/shaking didn't phase you at all?

I don't mind some but this was out of fukcing control.
