Shoot me first.

I will NOT be seeing Transformers.

I haven't been to a Micheal Bay movie since Armageddon, which I loathed. I have a unreasoning hatred of Bay movies.

Don't get me wrong. I love big loud dumb movies -- just not Bay's big loud dumb movies. I think it's the false sentimentality, the cynical use of explosions (every 10 minutes for that T.V. generation) and the lame humor.

Just saying.

I think Terri Gross' movie reviewer gave it a good review... which is saying something. I know, hard to believe!

I really don't understand why Bay's movies make me squirm, but they do.

I mean, I see lots of bad movies.
