I am trying to impress them enough so I can get a job there hopefully.

Can you guys click on the link, hit the like button, link it on your facebooks (PLEASE!), spread it on the internet.

If you like the review, I'd appreciate some positive comments ON the review page as I am getting attacked by Bay fans.

But it is most important the review gets unique hits, so I would appreciate it guys.

I'm pretty busy with my girls today, so I only had time for a quick look-see.  One thing that struck me was your comment about a massive planet in the same orbit as a smaller one.  That would work.  Mass is irrelevant to an orbital path and speed, for the same reason it's irrelevant to how fast something falls to the ground.  Of course, if the Earth is too close to the massive planet, then all hell will break loose between them, with the Earth being the bigger loser.

I'll read it all more carefully later.

No I meant that if Earth and another planet ten times its size are a fist away, the gravitational pull from that planet would cause chaos on Earth.

Awesome review.

I'd also like to point out a logical flaw in the movie that still aches my head.

I had to work really hard to suspend my disbelief in the theatre just so I can enjoy the visuals of that movie!

Also, is it just me or is Optimus a savage demon when he fights? Even the way he shreds his enemies and wishes vengeful death upon them is almost uncharacteristic of the Optimus we grew up with. I liked it though. You don't wanna F with Optimus. Hearing Cullen's voice yell "DIIEE!" can be quite intimidating.

hahahaa savage demon...

SPOILER:

He is also a pussy. When he was about to be killed he raised his hand and begged for his life... "NO PLEASE STOP!"

Then Megatron saves him and he just kills him. WTF. :D

Haha I forgot about that! This movie needs a proper sit-down for a discourse and discussion!

There was one thing I appreciated a bit more about Dark of The Moon than the first film: I could actually identify the bots much more easily! I don't know if that my eyes adjusting to the images of twisted metal over the span of the three films or they are actually more recognizable now.

Yea the first movie's action sequences were shot with the shaky cam, gorilla style. Here it wasn't as much, and the climatic moments were slowed down to show you ass being kicked.

You know, Bay is a dick. This is the last transformers film, so he basically killed all the main transformers so that no one else can do anything but a reboot.

Either that, or the next movie will see the birth of Galvatron.
