I can already see Transformers 3 having a hand in this. Needs more of Vanessa Hudgens' 10-year-old body, too.

Edited the possessive apostrophe after "Hudgens." pew pew.

I've heard pornstars say it with some conviction.

Transformers 2 had better action, and more bewbies.

A lot of the changes Bay made were actually what the fans of the original cartoon wanted (ie. more robots that weren't necessarily all introduced formally, more Cybertron, robots of the lady gender, etc.) and I respect his choice to make those inclusions, even though he probably knew he'd get an arse-whooping critically.

I will decide in a like a month or so which I found better. I watched the original the other night and there's plenty to yawn about in that one too. As I said to you a little while ago, I think we overlooked a lot of the more glaring flaws in the first film due to the fact that "ZOMG THSE GAINT ROBOTS R TRANZFRMINGG!!1!!1"

The pacing in the first one was far better IMO.

The action and bewbs were better in the second.

Action + Bewbs > Pacing?

1st one had acceptable action and boobs.

Didn't find either a HUGE step up, and I found some things a larger step down.

Would have been worse after fewer beers IMO.
