Ok so Israel and I saw this movie last night and it is amazing. Alot ore action then the previous one and a more solid story line. There is a bit of stereotypical racism I guess you could say. More There was some comedy in it and of course the lame love story...the movie could have done without the love crap. Make sure you watch the first one again if you need a refresher. All in all a good movie.

Stereotypical Racism? That seems rather odd for a movie about giant fighting robots. Were all the construction vehicle bots making fun of the car bots because their tires were small?

I don't really understand why it got such bad reviews. I thought it was pretty good. It was funny and had some good action. I liked that is had more of a plot. Though I got tired of seeing Megan Fox in slow motion.

I liked it, saw it twice. Second time reminded me that it wasn't as good as I thought after seeing it the first time. (But that's normal for most movies)
Stereotype came with Skidz/Mudflaps...both small (for an autobot)...caricatures of black rappers (or some would ignorantly assume black people in general).
Here's some quick highlights off the top of my head.
Twin brothers who argue and fight a lot One had a glaringly large Gold tooth Large noticeable ears With all of the autobots looking "cool" and the Decepticons looking "sinister" these two clowns look like buck-tooth goblins "We don't read..." They speak in a very stereotyped hip hop/rapper way.
I found them funny and comical but immediately saw the extremely sad direction the movie took with these two clowns as comic relief.
Worst major open hole in the movie...wtf happened to Skidz/Mudflap at the end? Even Wheelie disappeared...they're fighting Devastator and...uh next Devastator scene he's climbing the pyramid -- what happened to them?

First off, two years on and they can't fix bumblebee's voice? That's some ole buuullshit. Another thing I don't get is that whenever BB is in robot form anywhere you see yellow it's all scratched and battletorn but in car form there's not a scratch to be found. The twins were retarded. In the first movie I think it was either Ironhide or Jazz that said they reason they could speak english and had human-like personalities was because of the internet. What effed up site did those two study for their personalities? And the whole "being brought back to life by the dead primes" bumped up the cheese factor by about 50. I though that was over the top even for a movie about alien robots. The first movie blew me away and I saw it twice in the theater, not this one though.
Koach, your location still says Denver, you goon.
