THANK U.... i couldnt actually put into words how much the movie annoyed the shit out of me..but u said mst of it right here
also, for all bay's bitching about mass reduction, the frenzy decep(the one that turns into a stereo) manages to turn into both a stereo and a cellphone... and the big ass mystical cube, bigger then all the robots, turns into a small cube that Sam carries with him...gee wouldnt THAT involve mass reduction?
except or maybe 4 character, no one has a personality....Jazz dies, but who cares, u could've jus as well put ironhide or ratchet in there, i dotn know em anyways
and people tell me i should wait till after the credits, to see what happened to the 2 missing deceps fuck that..if its important show me in the movie...dont do someting completely illogical and then waist my time even more by making me watch a lot of letters on a screen
