I'm just this geek, you know? Love comics, though not a regular reader - Love gaming, PC, board games and wargaming, and reading Sci Fi. Chairman at my local wargaming club, I play X-Wing and occasionally 40k (But mostly X-Wing!) By day I work in eCommerce, by night I'm either still working, reading, watching or writing :)

Transformers: The Last Knight - Not-so good knight?

Ok, so let's get the important things over with first. Yes, there's an obscene number of explosions. Yes, there's lots of giant robots, and a generous sprinkling of offensive stereotypes. Yes, there's some long, gratuitous, pornographic shots of expensive American Military kit in Luridly oversaturated colour.... Oh, and there's a huge 3 headed flying robot dragon that's actually a combiner made up of 12 ancient Transformers. Only in a Michael Bay film could the last part be a footnote.
