I Still Haven't Seen Spider-Man 3.

...and at this rate, I probably never will. It pwn3d the box office though, something like $150 mil+ on opening weekend.

But Pirates is coming out, all my friends have already seen Spidey, I'm broke and I need to scoop some new New Eras...the outlook on my seeing Spider-Man 3 in theatres is looking pretty bleak.

But I don't care.

THIS is coming out.


Transformers. Keep your ears open at around the 1:39 mark - trust me.

When details on the movie started to leak about a year or so back, I wanted to find Michael Bay and burn him alive for shitting on my childhood. Live action? Prime as a snub-nosed rig with flames? Shia Lebouf and Bernie Mac?

It's like the time in the original animated Transformers: The Movie when you saw Hot Rod get the Matrix of Leadership and you cried because Hot Rod was pretty much a retardotron.

But really, I've warmed up to this thing. It's gigantic alien robots trying to tear each other's heads off. Ironhide looks particularly badass. Lots of stuff blows up. Megan Fox is in it.

Spidey was disappointing, Pirates is ultimately a chick flick, and I can't think of any other movies worth getting my geek on for. Transformers wins by default. But also because it's shaping up to be all sorts of awesome.





P.S. This doesn't excuse the fact that Megatron looks like a rolled up ball of foil.
