Transformers - Revenge of the Fallen

I finally get to see the new Transformers movie. Before the movie, what I've heard is this: it is just Megan Fox running around and nobody even would care about robots clash. Well it wasn't that bad.
Actually I think it is better than the first movie. The first movie has so many useless human characters. This time the humans have better chracters. Yes, this movie's storyline is a lot of nonsense.

The first movie was all about the "All Spark" cube, this time we have the leadership matrix! Yikes, this matrix looks like a boomerang or some sort, or the symbol of a hurricane, oh and this thing is not inside Prime?

Yes, a lot of actions take place but it is so hard to see who is fighting whom when all look like scrap parts. Look at the original cartoons! The transformers do not look like scrap metals.
The autobots have a symbol and the Decepticons have a symbol: they are clearly marked. Ouch they just have to kill Optimus Prime in the movie. It is wrong for Prime to go alone in that forest scene (Prime should know better). Primes' death deserves slow motion, and tears of Daniel in 1986 movie and the shaking head of Perceptor. The music of the 1986 movie was so remarkable. New movies neglect that.
I am so glad that Prime came back alive. I would be depressed for two years until the next movie if he doesn't come back.

The autobots
There are SO FEW autobots in the movie! Yikes, don't blow up Arcee! Besides Bumblebee and Prime there are two annoying idiots who follow Bumblebee. That's about it. Come on! There should be more autobots. The movie guys don't get it: the autobots is a great team, each one has its own powers and characteristics, along with a caring and powerful prime.

The bad guys
"The Fallen" is roughly equivalent to the Quintessons? It is a prime? Come on! "Prime" is the title of the autobot leader! They misused this sacred title. Megatron in this movie has no character. Starscrem is so ugly.
What makes the Decepticons evil is that they can be hostile to each other, what about Starscream's never ending desire to overthrow Megatron? I don't see that in the movie. Yikes Devastator looks so ugly like an ant-eater! Deavastor should be BIG and FEARSOME.

The humans
The military guys in the first movie runs around for nothing in the first movie, and of course, human weapons are supposedly useless against the Transformers. After all, why do you need the autobots if you can fight the Decepticons yourself? This time the human weapons have got much better. But the movie guys don't get it: we want to see Autobots fight the Decepticons. Stay out of the way.
Mikaela is beautiful, and her lipsticks never run out of color. Sam's classmates are beautiful too(except that Decepticon girl)! You will never find this many pretty girls in Astronomy 101. How come my university does not have this many pretty girls :)
Yikes, a decepticon can transformed into a girl? This is so wrong! Look: the them is Robots in Disguise, in the form of cars, trucks, even radio, or planes, not girls.

You should tell me more about Transformers, I don't know about the 1987 movie...
The robot girl did ruined the movie, totally unacceptable!
All the boys were so excited about the actions of the movie afterwards, no one care much about the story line. You are original.
