Saw premiere of BumbleBee (Transformers prequel NOT written/directed by Bay). Was actually pretty good. They genderflipped main character to girl who was a lot less annoying than LaBeouf but still typical angsty teen drama. Was actually fairly funny and action was way better especially in that you can tell what is actually going on unlike “Bayhem”. Showed small flashbacks of Cybertron war with other transformers and that was cool part too. I would give the movie a Bee+ (sorry lame pun rating).

“The whole plate: film studies through the lens of Transformers” It’s Film 101 in a very entertaining way.
