On another note...We went to see Transformers the other night. That's right, it came out here a whole week before it did in the states...I guess since there is no independence day here they needed to strategically release on. Boy, did I feel America as I watched it...good ole US of A. Guilty pleasure, I really liked it! When I heard the voice of Optimus Prime (actually the same guy as the cartoon) some bit of youth full of hope and dreams was reawakened and I sat through the movie in (quite close to) giddiness. I was taken back to all of our toys (we had lots of Transformers) and hearing my brothers try to make the "transforming sound" and I quote, "Chk, Chok, Chotk, Chik, Tchcok Schikck" but boy was that "sound" pretty darn cool in a big theatre with big speakers...Sure, the teenage, very Armegeddon and every other 4th of July, plot was dumb but that didn't even bother me because the Transformers were so cool. I mean, I actually wanted to be friends with Optimus Prime. As in, I walked out of the theatre and thought, "He's so cool" like he were Brad Pitt and yes, this was before I was sick. The CG was a step above. Very cool. It even had some great little subtle (or not so) lines that were no doubt placed in with Steven Spielberg's overseeing prowess about America. Although as a disclaimer, I am a sucker for the 4th of July movie, should I admit that? Tis true. I don't like them later but I love them in the moment. Ok. back to being really sick now.Happy 4th to all those celebrating!
