So I'm not familiar with Transformers at all. What's so bad about this movie?

When I want to contemplate the badness of Transformers, my mind jumps to that one scene in the first movie where the conversation jumps to the topic of masturbation for absolutely no reason, and then that cures me of wanting to contemplate the badness of Transformers.

That makes it sound like a bad teen comedy. I suspect that doesn't mesh with transforming robots.

I've heard reviewers observing that the transforming robots have testicles. I wouldn't know, because to me it was all a mass of unparseable CGI gibberish on the screen, but I would not be surprised.

It's like if you went into the world depicted on Idiocracy and that was what was playing on the screens in lieu of an action blockbuster.

This suddenly reminds me of Batman and Robin, and not in a good way.

All I remember of the transformers movie was when the silent robot decided to spill oil out of a valve set in its crotch all over the comedy relief villain.

Watching Transformers for me is like watching that scene again and again, forever.

Don't forget tweedle dee and tweedle dum the redneck transformer twins...

That sounds positively charming*.

I watched the new Transformers movie in IMAX 3-D, and it was fun.

Watched The Conjuring. Not one, not two, not three, not four, not five, but SIX demons haunting a family. Point being, I didn't get any sleep last night.
I'm going to need your signature for the metric ton of whoop-ass you're about to receive.

"A 'Cult'? Such disrespect for other people's beliefs."
"You enslave minds!"
"And I believe that's okay."

Anastasia

At least you'll sleep good tonight?

That's a pretty tiny silver lining, though.

The solution was sporadic naps throughout the day.

Everything about Jamie Lee Curtis freaks me out on a fundamental level.
What if they're not stars at all? What if the night sky is full of titanic far-off lidless eyes, staring in all directions across eternity?

I look into FFML, and there is a fic by Fox.

The AC was broken at work. It was in the 90s with a heat index of well over 100. I work in a warehouse moving and stocking big ticket items like appliances and furniture.
