I admit that I actually liked the first one but watching this reminded me how nonsensical it was. I'm a sucker for the things transforming and big CG explosions so I will probably go see the third one with no complaints.

I'll never forget the awkward closing Linkin park song of the first movie.

WHAAATTT I'VE DONNNNNNNNNNEEE 
 
Yeah Transformers. I have no idea why I'm so hyped for the new movie, when I hated the second movie so damn much. I think I just hate myself.

im not gonna lie, i half expected this video to be rorie standing beside a disc with a bit of poop on it just shrugging randomly shouting sam every couple of seconds

I also like boobs.

Christ on a cracker, this video was painful to watch. It's no fault of Rorie or Joey, it's the fact that I forgot how bad those movies were.

Having the plot and the racism and the things that hump and robot testicles all spelled out like that.

I should have walked out on Transformers 2 when I had the chance.

And it reconfirms my choice to never pay to see Transformers 3.

Goddamn I don't remember any of this!

Awesome vid! This made my hate for these movies grow to levels I can't even imagine. Michael Bay can still suck it!

I don't care what anyone says but I enjoyed both of these movies.  The first one had the better storyline and the second one for just the action/transforming in it.  Michael Bay needs to cut out the stupid one liners and add some intelligent dialogue.

EPIC MEAL TIME MUSIC! Good choice Mr Rorie

a good "here's what you missed" and it is nice to hear again how bad the movie is.

I was hoping this would be 8 minutes of explosions.

Glorious train wreck of crap! I'm glad this was video was made...now I'll never have any reason to watch Revenge of the Fallen.

I had a fun time in the theater for the first one, but coming out I was like "Wait... did any of those robots actually fight each other?" For every 10 minutes dumb human shit, it felt like every fight involving transformers lasted a couple seconds, then cut to Sam screaming. I didn't even bother with the second one, but I watched a 45 minute review of it last week (yeah, I have that much time to waste), and yeah... I'm not looking forward to number 3, but I doubt it could be that bad, considering its predecessor.

"Between the Transformers and the Decepticons"

I shall have your Child of the 80s card for this, Matthew Rorie.

I saw the first movie in the theaters and wanted a refund.  The second film I saw because it came on after Rules of Attraction and I was unable to get up and change the channel due to being to having the flu and feeling too weak to move.  So I honestly don't know if what I saw was part of the movie or an elaborate fever dream?  I remember thinking that John Turturro's character was also named Barton Fink in this movie and wondering why Sponge Bob was voicing so many different robots.    
Good to know the movie my fever mind saw was infinitely more entertaining then what Transformers 2 actually was. 
litrockon June 28, 2011 at 1:07 p.m.

This is the best video. Makes me glad I didn't bother with 2 and have no interest in 3 after the first one was a giant sack of shit.

coakroachon June 28, 2011 at 1:09 p.m.
That was brilliant. Thank you Matt Rorie.

Thanks Rorie.  Man, Bay sure churns out garbage expressly made for the American culture.  I don't know whether to be irritated with this culture, the people who go see these, or Bay himself.  Maybe all of the above.
