burning questions: the ten most confusing things in "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen".
(This is the improbably beautiful Alice - played by Isabel Lucas - one of Shia LaBeouf's classmates at college.- Editor)
I have absolutely no desire to see this movie, and this is why:
SPOILER ALERT
Ten Most Confusing Things in "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen"
1. In "Transformers," there was this giant battle in the middle of downtown Los Angeles -- excuse me, Mission City -- that was witnessed by thousands of people at the very least. But somehow the government was able to cover up the whole thing, and now the existence of alien robots is just an internet rumor? ...
7. Sam, Mikaela, and Simmons (John Turturro) go to the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum in Washington D.C. to find Jetfire. Then they walk out the back onto a wide open field with old planes and mountains in the distance. When did the National Mall start to look so much like to Tucson, AZ (where they really filmed that scene)?
8. The geography is just as bad when they go to Egypt. The stone city of Petra in Jordan is over 250 miles away, over mountainous terrain, with few paved roads and the Israeli border between them, so how can they drive from one to the other in a couple of hours. And the Pyramids are said to be shooting distance from the Mediterranean, but they are actually well over 80 miles inland.
Have you seen this movie, and did it make any sense to you? Despite these numerous and massive plot holes, is this movie worth seeing?

Nah, it's not worth seeing, it just raked in $400 million in a couple weeks because it sucks.
@Dare2BDiferentt@xanga - Hey, it wouldn't be the first time that Hollywood convinced us that mediocrity was OSSUM.
I'm not seeing it for a variety of nerdy reasons. One of which being MEGATRON IS THE BAD GUY. STOP PRETENDING LIKE HE CAN BE SECOND.
Another being that these plotholes mentioned above are a few of many that I've heard about. Including some really odd costume changes.
I'll wait until it comes out on DVD. $10 isn't worth it.
yeah, it was just average. rent it.
If you ignore all that the graphics where decent.
I actually did enjoy the movie but apparently the entire world didn't. Even though on Facebook everyone of my friends' statuses said how awesome it was. It's really confusing.
The movie sucked. It was 2 and a half hours of nonstop explosions. And those new "twin' robots bug the hell out of me.
The worst thing about it in my opinion, was the really fast editing mixed with all the action and special effects going on. Because even if the plot made any sense (which of course it didn't) the fights and the movements and all of the action was incomprehensible. I couldn't even follow the simple actions.
i thought it was amazing. i'd pay to see it again. yup.
About number 2. It couldn't wake up Optimus because it flew who-knows-where when Sam used it to wake up Jetfire.
But otherwise, I thought it was great. I'm not one for movies about things blowing up, but I really liked it. There were things that weren't explained and unnecessary, though. (Dogs humpin', robots humpin'?)
i've seen the movie and it didnt mak any sense, but i still enjoyed it anyway....
but when they first introduced megan fox in that movie (the scene where shes answering sam's phone call on the bike), she is so damn sexy.sheeeet i sound like a guy.
Megan Fox sells.
I've never seen the first one and I absolutely refuse to see the second one. I just don't see a point in seeing this movie lol
such pessimism
cool it fonzey
megan fox wouldn't have needed to take that pose on top of the bike while airbrushing something on the side of it.... but i'm sure many men and women are happy about it.
movie is only good if you like epic battle scenes and neat robots.
I agree - these 10 reasons made this movie soo un-realistic. [sarcasm]
i mean, what I really couldn't get over in this movie was how friggin spotless Mikaela's pants were teh whole movie. just no. that would never happen.
rent it. so you can fast forward through the unnecessary scenes. like seriously the movie it almost 3 hours long.
The girl in the picture is smoking! I like her looks more than Megan's haha.
@irishgrrl690@xanga - Then it would shock you that I paid $41 for two tix LOL. It was IMAX but still kinda expensive...sux to live in NYC. lol
