How can I not blog about this?!! Just got back from a pre-screening of Transformers. This much anticipated movie has been whispered amongst die hard fans for 2 years now. I first learned of it from Ben - who is a true fan like no other (he decorates his cube in the figurines). Frank and I sought out to buy tickets for the pre-screening before the long weekend. I wasn't sure if we'd get them. So Chris, Toshiki, Tyson, Chicky and I joined Frank, Kenny and their crew at the theatre for some reminiscing about childhood cartoons/toys. Thinking that an hour before the show should be sufficient time - we were wrong. Amazingly many others were already camped out in the line up. :-) Reminded me of when I lined up for the first release of Star Wars Episode 1! The movie was 2 hours of action packed fun. The audience was primarily guys who grew up watching or playing with Transformers. I did my "homework" the night before and refreshed my memory by watching the old cartoons. There was unanimous applauding at the end of the movie - a sign that the movie is going to be a summer blockbuster! Too bad the girls didn't want to see the movie. Oh well - not everyone likes CGI movies. :-) I won't say too much about the it - so that those that haven't seen it can still enjoy it.
Coming out of the movie - my only thought was "I wish my car could transform!". Why can't they make an AI robot for the consumer market?! :-)
