Whoah! Finally this thing got some attention. you guys had me worried that you had no interest in this movie whatsoever.
You know the ironic thing about seeing a carrier get pasted in such a manner? There's been grumbling lately that carriers make big targets. Bay just drove
that point home. Granted, it was an over-the-top 1HK with what was essentially kinetic weapons - and I'm pretty sure I counted at least four solid hits
(fo'c'sul, amidships, superstructure, and aft - the Decepticons knew what they were doing). However, carriers are far from invisible. Subs with air
independent diesel engines are a major concern since they don't have to snorkel to recharge... and are quieter than nuclear subs when the diesels are
turned off.
Anyhow, enough with the military rant.
I do appreciate that Spike and Mikaela getting some development, but it would have been nice as well to see more about the Autobots. I stand by what I said
earlier about serializing the movies. If they could make a plot run effectively over the course of three movies, and you got that much potential material, then
you should go for it.
Sorry, but as much as they've been putting into the films, it just isn't epic enough.
