>>It didn't hold your interest.>>
It was stupid. My intererst was not an issue. I am quite interested in good scifi. It simply didn't rate.
>>It is however perhaps the most highly praised of this summer's movies.>>
Sad statement really but then again, Bladerunner was a flop in it's day and 2001 was difficult to understand in it's day.... so business as usual. If you set your standards of excellence by the immediate reactions of the masses that is your business. But I don't jump off cliffs just because Johnny did it first. Boy bands were once all the rage with the same dumb masses. No thanks.

As a minority voice of reason perhaps I do need to repeat it. Given that you obviously did not get it, clearly I do need to repeat it. And maybe explain it in simple sentences....
>> Not enough 'splosions for you. Don't worry, 'Transformers 3' will be on blu-ray soon.>>
Really? You liked this dumb ass movie and you are trying to play the highbrow card? At least explosions don't demand that we become idiots suspend disbelief. I suppose you would have liked it even better if the apes were smashing through the windows from the sixth and seventh floors and hit the ground running? Perhaps the third and fourth floors weren't high enough? Maybe we should have had three gorillas jumping 200 feet onto spaceships? 75 feet onto a helocpter after taking multiple high gunshot wounds was perhaps to easy for any gorilla that had been living in captivity most of it's life? You buy that level of extreme stupidity and you have the balls to act like this movie went over my head? You saw apes swinging underneath the Goldengate bridge and bought it? LOL not sure how you can be critical of Transformers. It's just as stupid...
