Let’s face it, what can you do to make the Transformer movies worse than they already are? First you have Fox with that incredibly challenging dialog. Now they are replacing her with an underwear model. Who knows, maybe she can act. Stranger things have happened.

As for Fox I can totally understand how those scripts were too much for her. How can a girl remember “SAM!”. That would stretch anyone’s acting skills.

@Curt Moreno: From what I gathered it wasn’t that she thought the dialog was hard (though I know that was partially sarcastic), it was that she had a run-in with director Michael Bay.

@Demonstrable: I’m with you, they just need to find a placeholder that can stay along for the ride, possibly add some flare, and drown out in the sounds of Cybertron.

so what that these women can’t act, take away the special effects and you’ll realize that Bay can’t direct……………….

Probably a new character. I hated Fox’s role in the second one, she was just basically there for guys to pay to drool over her and honestly they aren’t good enough movies to make me care about her coming back.

oh, and another thot… If we but recall, Optimus died trying to save Sam… Sam who had turned his back on the whole thing to begin with… Sam who, if he had manned up and accepted some responsibility instead of wanting to party hearty at college, would have been under Autobot’s protection to begin with… When Optimus thanks Sam for coming back for him and all Sam can come up with is a very arrogant “you’re welcome” instead of something like… “well, you died because you had to come save me from Megatron”… whoever wrote those lines at the end of the movie… should trade in their Screenwriter’s Guild card for a 1960′s vintage Roger Maris card… (am I being too harsh here?)

eh… vad bad choice… i was hoping someone along the lines of Emma Stone. You know… at least someone who can act. I dont expect much, but this almost hurts my feelings. ;)
