I'm way too awake and upset to even begin to try and go to sleep... so I'm gonna rant about Michael Bay's Transformers.
As if Michael Bay hadn't done enough to the Transformers, he felt the need to make it even worse! I've been a huge Transformers fan since I first saw Beast Wars, and when I heard they were making a movie, I jizzed BUCKETS. Only to be disappointed. I suppose I'll rant a little about the 1st one too... first off, the Transformers are in no way "organic". They were created by their planet, Cybertron, and later by the "Matrix". Not a ******** cube. Michael Bay had Megatron turn into a jet... which is BULLSHIT. Megatron transforms into a tank. That's just how it ******** is. And while I'm at it, why did all the Decepticons look the ********' same? They were just colorless and really uncreative as hell. The Autobots weren't much better, but still, they had SOME variety. And finally, ******** SHIA LEBOUFF!
I feel like I should do some character comparisons here... I'll try it now...
So, Starscream was probably the best Decepticon. I mean the whole stereotype for what a legion of evil should be doing is all within Starscream. He's not loyal to Megatron in the least, and he's always trying to get ahead of him. He's "deceptive", and a con man... a Decepticon. And in the movies... he's a wimp. He just takes abuse from Megatron like a whiny b***h. He actually tries to bring Megatron back to life! ******** THAT.
Now there's Soundwave. Soundwave is my most favorite character in all of Transformers. Emotionless and ********' ruthless with four other death-machines living inside him. And he turned into a ********' boom box! He was mostly the communications guy, he'd intercept Autobot orders, he'd do some re-con now and again. And in the movies... he's a sattelite. And that's it. He has one scene... one of the most major parts of the Decepticon army does nothing...
They did a pretty good job with Optimus, but he still looks like generic robot s**t.
Bumblebee... absolute garbage. He wasn't important in the shows... he was just around... and now he's protecting a kid... for no real reason. I mean, if the Transformers hadn't shown up with the kid, the Decepticons wouldn't have found him. And he has no voice... for some reason. It really has nothing to do with the plot, it's just... there.
Jazz. Don't tell me that you can't just put a robot back together, because they did it in the 1980's Transformers movie, which is utterly fantastic, by the way. But no, they're living things for some reason, so Jazz's only fantastic scene is... being torn apart by a shitty representation of Megatron...
Ok, that's enough fan-boy ranting for now...

It's not that Shia is a bad actor, its just that I really didn't like him in this movie.
