I’ll freely admit I loved the first Transformers. I’ll also admit I saw the second Transformers on opening weekend and promptly fell asleep in the theater. I do have some hope for this third installment. First and most importantly, Michael Bay realized that the second movie sucked real bad. And I quote, “When I look back at it, that was crap.” It sure was, Michael Bay. Second, they filmed in Chicago. I don’t care what anyone says, it’s kind of awesome to see your city get blown to smithereens on film. The Dark Knight anyone? Plus some of my former students were interns on the set. And third, no Megan Fox (although her replacement looks enough like her that some viewers may actually be confused.) Fingers crossed!
