I don't care very much for any of them personally and despite watching the first movie, I am not in agreement that Bay was the correct choice as the director. In general I don't think very much of Bay as a director. The ET thing didn't even focus on the story just how Bay likes to blow up crap.

    So it was very tedious for me to watch, I was hoping for some good TF revelation at the end but that never came to happen.

    I hope this attitude of making the Transfomers 'extras' in a movie bearing their name and focusing on Bay and the actors as the main attraction does not carry over to the final product.

    There should be a more balanced approach.

    I am so getting sick of these "Entertainment Reporters" painting Bay as the guy single-most responsible for resurrecting TFs...

    It's as though (from their eyes) Transformers were dead & buried before Bay gave them a second lease on life... *They deserve a ... *

    Caught that too and gave me a damn good laugh.

    I didn't mind Tracey but since she went to ACA she lost all credibility. Comes from being attached to the show I suppose, it hasn't had credibility in years.

    Hey, don't bag Tracey. Or you'll have Deborah Hutton to answer to!

    I can't believe anyone actually watches ACA/TT. I'm not talking about treating it as a joke, I'm talking about _watching_ it.

    meh, I don't watch it, it's everyone else in the house that has it on.

    Personally i'd pop it onto pay-tv. Sure it might be a repeat of The Simpsons on Fox 8 or some moronic reality crap on MTV, or hell, even the news on Sky News, but frankly, they're all improvements over ACA and Home and Away at that time. (TT is on earlier here)

    I honestly have no idea why those shows are still on tele at all - let alone at primetime...

    I mean, the whole Mercedes Corby/Jodi Power war between the 2 shows illustrated just how low the 2 shows will stoop for ratings...

    I haven't seen it in many years. I hate those shows as they are represent everything that is wrong with the modern news services.

    I saw the ET thing on youtube after it was linked on another board before the local broadcast.

    Why they are still on? Who knows.

    Australian free to air TV still ranks as the worse I have ever encountered. Even in poor countries were there were only 2 channels they still made an effort to show some variety and entertainment even if the stuff broadcasted was 20 years old.

    Exactly. Meaning less of these blowhard actors and more of the Robots.... I mean Hellooooo the movie is entitled "Transformers", not "teenage delinquents", or "Star complex airheads". Oh and a little more death scenes, honestly even the fight of Megs and Prime on the first movie , hellooooo prime gets thrown to a building , no one got killed, he fell down on the pavement no human got squished?!? WTF?!? Oh and that soldier getting the shishkebab from Scorponok, ... really thats it??
