    I don't really understand what people are wanting out of this series. It's about a bunch of big fucking robots fighting each other. And based on a toy line. You looking for something other than cool action and spectacle in something with that premise? Sometimes I think audiences are just too damn jaded these days.
    That's a pretty reasonable take on the film and reasonable expectations, I think. That said, the 2nd film really did pale in comparison to the 1st (for me a great deal) and though I'll probably give the 3rd a try, I really hope they do a notch up from their last effort.

    I thought the first one was alright... Not seen the second one...
    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    I don't think it's as bad as some people make it out to be. It may not be on the exact same level as the first, but it's pretty close. I actually thought the comedy was much better in TF2. It's worth at least one viewing, just don't expect the greatest film ever. Understand that it's just fun before you see it and you should have..well....fun.

    As with all Bay films, it's definitely got some great visual treats and action. People can hate on Bay all they want, but the man knows action.
