i dont want to get into a huge debate over this, so all i'll say is: michael bay makes movies that are all flashy action eye candy, with no substance. now, im cool with action movies, im cool with popcorn flicks, im cool with watching movies for the sole purpose to be entertained and nothing more....but thats not an excuse for a movie to have little to no story to hold up the 2 hour action sequences that bay has a tendancy to produce. i cant imagine transformers is gonna end up being anything different. now, if your a michael bay fan, if you enjoy a bunch of car chases and things blowing up with no story or purpose behind it...all right, thats cool, thats your opinion....i dont understand it, but whatever....
