He injured his hand when they all landed in the desert after the old decepticon zapped them

One scene that was funny to me was the Paris outside cafe.
That was actually the outside of Phila city hall's courtyard.
Another was when Sam was being interigated in the old factory.
That was also Phila and immediately after escaping from that factory they end up in a forest somewhere.
The nearest forest to that location has to be over 20 miles.

Also When sam's parents are eating in the paris cafe, which happens to be Philly city hall you can see Billy Penn because that building that comes straight down is City Hall and Billy Penn is on top of that and hits the ground first when it comes down.

I'm really liking the movie, it's a whole load of fun.

The opening Paramount logo with the stars flying around may be one of the best Logos at the beginning of a film I have ever heard.

I had real concerns that I was going to think this movie would be awful. I'm an hour in (to where Sam is being interrogated at the factory) and am having a blast. And I found the first film a little confusing, frankly--especially at the end. Circumstances have me watching this film in half-hour increments. I usually hate doing that. But that's what I'm dealing with right now.

And I was thinking the exact same thing about the opening Paramount logo. Cool beans.

Am I the only one that thinks the presentation is very grainy? Most all of the backgrounds when it is live film look grainy, the full CGI shot do not have the grainy look. Do I have something set up incorrectly? Input is appreciated.

Just on a side note, there is a fantastic air museum at Bradley Airport, outside of Hartford. I lived there for over 20 years and never looked into it, but I went recently while visiting family and was blown away.

I was trying to find info at Amazon and Best Buy's site about a gift set that includes both the Blu Rays of Transformers 1 and 2. I can't tell, but it looks like the gift set does not have the 2 disc sets of both movies for a total of 4 discs? The price of the set at Amazon is really good, so it leads me to believe the set is just the movies, no extras.

Can anyone confirm?

Ah, Mike, thanks!

I didn't see the specs section, I was looking for a product description that might say it has the extras. It does say it's the Special Edition. I guess if it's 4 discs, then it must include the extras of the individual 2 disc sets. Appreciate the help!

"I am directly below enemy scrotum!"

I seem to be one of the few people here who actually enjoyed this movie. Blu comes out here in a couple of weeks, I will be buying.

Q. Is it a continuity error when Isabel Lucas' character comes out fo the smoke in a dress again after transforming earlier in the dorm room?

Michael Bay likes his movies grainy, so it's probably the source and not your system.
