The Transformers sequel left little to be desired, except for originality, good dialogue, and closure. The laughs were bawdy in far too many places, not for taking your 8 year old kids to see. The plot opened up too much: a new supreme Decepticon, Optimus is now a messiah, aliens in ancient ruins - things not hinted at in the first movie. Petra is now cliché thanks to Indiana Jones, and Sam's near-death scene was right out of Harry Potter. How about redrawing the national borders to leave out Israel at the tip of the sea where Egypt, Jordan, and Israel meet? We can't mention them without hurting revenues world-wide. The bad guys live - easy sequel in 2011.
