Well, I think the Transformers movie looks like it might be worth seeing - if you can get past the near-schizophrenic experience of watching this trailer. The first 30 seconds or so OK - a slow montage of establishing shots which do a good job but the rest of the trailer seems to consist of 75 1-second flashes of barely recognisable shots (the last 20 seconds of the 2 minute 5 second trailer are your standard production credits) which results a bewildering kaleidoscope of colours. I get that it's a trailer - you don't give away the main plot points of main character deaths but that was only just above a meaningless blur.
