Mikaela was a better girlfriend by a long shot. I just really hate how Sam’s parents treated her like it was her fault her and Sam were always in danger, that one man even said “he's a danger magnet. Every time I see him, something terrible happens." But they wanted Sam to break up with her so bad talking about "We just want you to be happy, Sam."

Mikaela waited a good minute for him to answer the facetime call and went to see him even when he didn’t answer the call. She was always there for him and never left him behind whenever they were in danger. When Sam was telling her to go to safety with his parents during the battle in Egypt she said no and stuck by his side. She even said I love you first when Sam was playing in her face. Like jeez how can his dad say "I loved her. I loved her like a daughter. She was the greatest thing that ever happened to you, and she treated you like garbage."

Carly needed someone to save her unlike Mikaela she knew how to save herself she literally went back into the battle field with Bumblebee hooked up to the truck when he got shot and legs were all broken. This girl literally drove him into the fight like???

Home girl Carly told Sam “it’s me or the autobots?” like how are you going to tell him to leave the autobots and ran to her freaking bos. Like omg Mikaela would have never picked a rich man over Sam and she would have dropped kick that man so quick if he started calling her pet names and flirting with her. THEN SHE HAD THE AUDACITY TO BE SCARED after finding out her boss was a bad guy???

When Sam was getting attacked by the flying decepticons all she was doing was screaming “no Sam” LIKE HELP THE MAN???

Back to the parents again because it tics me off so bad they liked Carly because she was giving him a fresh new start “normal life” when he didn’t even want a normal life half way into the movie talking about “I want to mean something again” TUH he was in love with Mikaela and she was in love with him too. They were the end game at that. The chemistry was like off the freaking roof so I don’t see how people think Carly was a better fit than their chemistry was ehhh. Plus anytime Carly would kiss Sam it was never be like how Mikaela did LORRDDDD the way he used to look at Mikaela. I would have rather had Sam be single for the rest of the movies than Carly no offense, she was fine tho.

Carly did eat that one piece telling Megatron all he is, is Sentiel b*tch like 😯😯 but Mikaela would have did that too but quicker. Prime wouldn’t even have have lost an arm yet.

Movie Review | Transformers: Dark of the Moon (Bay, 2011)

I remember seeing the trailer years ago, thinking it looked pretty cool, only for my sentiment to completely sour once I realized it was a Transformers movie. Take a look and see if you can pinpoint the moment my anticipation evaporated. What I will say is that with this viewing, I found all the stuff with the presidents funnier than ever. CGI JFK, Out of Focus Nixon, Knockoff Obama. 

This is the one people cite as the best Transformers movie, or at least the one that can most easily pass for a normal movie. Compared to the borderline free associative structure of the last one, where each plot seemed to be made up on the fly as it jerked from one set piece to the next, this one actually seems, if not exactly lean, somewhat straightforward and organic in its plotting. One scene flows to the next in a relatively logical manner, stakes are defined relatively clearly, characters behave in ways that don’t actively annoy except when they’re supposed to, and the comic relief is mostly kept to the sidelines in the climax. I probably would still fail a pop quiz on the events in this movie, but I’d score better than I would with the other entries. 

This is one I like to cite for Bay’s comedy direction. The previous movies benefited from the tension of his blockbuster style and the fallibility of the characters’ demeanours, but this one seems to lean even more forcefully into the punchlines. (John Malkovich introduced with an aggressive zoom, Shia’s insecurity about his girlfriend mocked with his head framed through his car’s window and later with him being smothered by an especially tight shot composition as he stomps on the engine.) And while I won’t claim the humour is much more sophisticated, this has elements of actual satire, with shots taken at toxic workplace culture, CEO worship and the girlboss archetype. 

And of course there’s the climax, which is as good as it gets for a certain kind of large scale action sequence that has become de rigueur in movies of this budget level for the last one or two decades. Why this one works and others of this type often don’t is that Bay is able to lend the effects with a sense of weight that CGI often doesn’t have, with how the characters are animated and are made to sound and how the camera moves and how much in the way of practical elements can be incorporated into the shooting. And why this one works better than the climaxes of the previous entries is that Bay, working with 3D, and having to deal with heavier cameras and the possibility that viewers might hurl from too much aggressive motion, opts for clarity, holding the shots longer, keeping the camera movement fluid, cutting from one shot to the next in a way that seems intuitive and easy to follow, rather than the knockabout assembly in the previous movies. And that Bay is able to organize this large scale destruction into clear mini set pieces (the building collapse, the skydiving scenes) so as to bring some shape to this chaos. And that Bay keeps our vantage point largely with the humans and brings a consistent sense of scale to the proceedings: the robots are big, the destruction bigger, and the humans so very small. This was made before Bay really developed his humanist streak, but the conviction this has that the humans can save the day is a refreshing contrast to the last one’s contempt for their role in the action. If anything, the action gets a lot less interesting once we shift back to the Autobots. 

I will say that because this was easy enough to enjoy in a straightforward manner, I somewhat missed having to put my cinephile hat on like I did with the last two to grapple with their stylistic and narrative choices. And I think this began to incorporate digital cameras, which made me better appreciate in hindsight the more pronounced grain in the previous entries and how they complemented Bay’s aesthetic. And while I generally don’t expect good roles for women in Bay’s movies, I missed the quirks and texture Megan Fox brought to her role. 

And while I am generally against end credits scenes, this has one where John Turturro declares he is willing to go to jail for love, so perhaps it justifies the device. Also, if you want a fun drinking game with these movies, take a shot anytime a robot kills another robot execution style. It happens more often than you’d think.

Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011) dir. Michael Bay. 7.5/10

I wouldn't recommend this movie to my friends. I wouldn't rewatch this movie.

Patrick Dempsey, you're my husband and all, but stop being a creep. Why are we back to sexualizing women again in this movie? Sam is so angry here. Charlotte is so uptight. We made the role that sucks a woman this time. & we made Simmons crew. Sentinel did Ironhide so dirty. We don't love Mikaela being gone. Why are we even trying to replace her? I'm not committed to Carly even though I see that her and Sam have such trust for one another. But, I have no history with this girl. Optimus yanking out Megatron's spine was crazy cool.

wow the real Buzz Aldrin.

What are the odds that Carly's boss is literally the villain who knows all this??
