Transformers

Okay so back last year when I saw the tiny preview for this movie I actually laughed. It looked pathetic. I was totally wrong. After watching the movie, I remember actually having some of the toys when I was little (so Mom you sould find those for me.) This was by far the best action movie I have seen in a long time. I was disappointed with Spiderman 3, and somewhat mildly interested in Fantastic Four 2, but this took the cake (and it was a 3-tiered chocolate!) The producers must have been working on this one forever. It had a ton of big name actors, an immeasurable budget, and some of the most fluid and realistic special effects I have seen. You really couldn't even complain that it was 2 hours and 30 minutes. My only complaint? Harry Potter. I am scared that Transformers will dwarf what happens next Tuesday at midnight (for which I already have tickets!!) The number one on my list this summer was (obviously) Order of the Phoenix. Now I am worried that it won't win the Grand Champion ribbon at the county fair. In the theatre last night, it got to be a little bit too much when the 35 year old dudes were screaming with joy when certain characters would first make an enterance. I'm not talking living actors. I'm talking the Transformers. Unbelieveable! I just want to know who they are clapping for. Do the CG animators actually place special devices inside the projectors at movie theatres so they, who are sitting at home playing World of Warcraft, can smile and say, "You're too kind! I know I'm the best!"? NO! I've never worked at a theatre, but I bet they get to watch a lot of movies and once I'd see it a couple times, I would make bets with my "friends" to see if they clapped during certain times. Note to everyone- clapping is for live action!
