Transformers is a lot like Babel, except with giant robots. Oh, and it's better than Babel. The best reason to see Transformers on the big screen, though, is for the chance to watch one of the best trailers I've ever seen. I only wish I knew the name of the movie. I don't think the trailer is officially available online, but you can see a lousy bootleg copy here, and then read some of the speculation, which is pretty, uh, interesting.

I have a feeling that this movie, whatever it is, can't possibly be as good as its marketing campaign. But wouldn't it be great if it was?
