In the dream I had this morning just before waking (a sort of future sci-fi thing, more details under the cut if anyone cares), at one point the group I was with met a famous action director, who made things that were a cross between a fully immersive movie and a limited-choice game. He was doing a promo tour for his latest project, a remake of the classic "Michael Bay's Transformers". For the rest of the dream, ads for this were everywhere, even inside the high security installation I was trying to infiltrate.
Yes, I plan to see Revenge of the Fallen today. :0
( Dream stuff behind the cut, mostly writing it down so I can remember it later, since I might want to mine a few of the elements for stories. )

shortpacked's review: "GIANT ROBOTS. All else is nitpickery."And then there's this one.
I doubt there will be anything meaningful I can add to this combination once I see the movie myself. :)

Dave Van Domelen, "Dr. Pym created Ultron, the robot who, in turn, created you. If you -- kiss Doctor Pym, it's akin to kissing your grandfather." "Actually, Edwin, in the circles I trsvel within the robotic community, Hank is seen as the creator of modern Artificial Intelligence. So when I do kiss him, it's more like I'm kissing God." - Jarvis and Jocasta, Mighty Avengers #26

While it's fine to have a third mode that's legless (i.e. BMac Jetstorm and Thrust molds), if there's no official mode in which the robot can stand unsupported, It Is Fail. That's why Sideswipe got knocked down to Mildly Recommended, by the way...he can barely stand.

If a mission is given in Steel Canyon and requires travel to Skyway City or vice versa, whichever train station is closer to the contact will let you out at the wrong end of the target city. ALWAYS.

A local car dealership has a radio ad in which they sing, "Will you buy a Ki-i-a" to the tune of Green Day's "Do You Know The Enemy". And then the voiceover goes on about how high prices are the enemy.
