Bewy said:Off-topic sorry: I didn't like Transformers because I didn't like the story, and it's too patriotic (in France we don't see patriotism this way :D).
And to come back to the flares, I don't know if it's useful to add some without any reason.
Well, patriotism isn't bad as long as there's something honest about it. I dig INDEPENDENCE DAY and GLORY, one for being a straight-up 50's sci-fi movie and 70's disaster movie and the other for a more serious look at what patriotism truly is. TRANSFORMERS is just too 5-year-old for me, and that's coming from someone who loves the animated 1986 TRANSFORMERS movie (which at least had scope! I mean, how can you NOT like a movie that starts off with a planet-sized robot eating another planet for breakfast!).
Now Frank Capra? THAT is some major patriotic syrup...
BTW, the UK TRANSFORMERS blu-ray (the 1986 animated film) is region free and looks EXCELLENT!
