I'm just gonna post this one spoiler.
Devastator testicles.
That is all.

Our IMAX is in Dublin about 10mins from home but I hear not all IMAX's are created equal
We're either going to Dublin or Sacramento.
It does this to the nth degree. Every other beat is a chase / fight / explosion scene. It's actually quite shocking how much action is actually in the film.
It's about 2 mins. But, yes, it is worth it. Infact, its one of the best bits of the film. I pity the non-IMAX crowd.
One of the low points, humour-wise.
SPOILER FREE REVIEW:
If you DID NOT like the first film, you WILL NOT like the second film. It has no further redeeming qualities. Saying that, if, like me, you liked (loved, in my case) the first film for its humour, Megan Fox, visuals, robots kicking each other, music, Megan Fox and Megan Fox, you will not be disappointed. Just like the first, its full of bits that are utter crap, surrounded by larger bits that are utterly awesome.
Its bigger, about the same level of dumbness, definitely badder. IMO its awesome. Im not looking for a moving story filled with nuance and twists, I can get that from other films. What I cant get from those other films are 30 ft robots destroying just about everything in sight, explosions up the ying yang, Megan Fox and a rail gun (yeah).
John Reynolds will whinge about this film, if he even goes to see it, because I think hes lost the little boy in his soul.
For everyone else who geeks out on OTT CGI and stupidly hot girls, I heartly recommend it. Infact, I already have IMAX tickets for two more nights next week.DeadlyNinja

LOL I enjoyed the first Transformers, plan on driving about 40 minutes to see the sequel at an IMAX. So I got your little boy hanging 'twixt the fork of my legs, bitch.
It's been released in Japan.
I can't believe that they are not going to show Transformers 2 IMAX version here as scheduled, citing some sort of "scheduling problem." Now I have to consider whether to just go watching a normal version as the original schedule, or wait for the IMAX version...

There's a good article at Den of Geek about the whole imax/liemax thing, seems if it's a digital projection then you're probably in for the reduced size.
In a way it's good that IMAX is destroying it's brand power ... that opens up space for a new high end format. Something like 80 FPS (leaves room for stereo) at the original IMAX 1:1.44 ratio with at least 4K resolution would be nice.
PS. hmmm, Sony's 4K projectors can do 60P and do simultaneous stereo by simply splitting up the projector output ... that's actually pretty close. A whole lot better than IMAX digital at any rate.

The only part I laughed at was
A bit ridiculous, but damn.
Bleh, summer blockbusters.
didn't like the twins autobots
Fallen scenes felt awkward somehow, especially the Cybertron part... I dunno, felt too forced
The only part I laughed at was
the washroom and taser scene.
I wanted to like Jetfire, but the crankie Aussie was a bit much for me.
