    i agree with this, Snaggle Tooth is NOT and NEVER will be MJ in my eyes, what a mess and wooden actor.

    Megan Fox did well, to say in some scenes she must have been acting to nothing or a tennis ball on a stick.
    She will improve.

    i hope the cute Ozzy hacker girl comes back for more.

    I thought Megan Fox was perfectly adequate for the role. I mean, really; what did people expect, Cate Blanchett? It's hardly Shakespeare, is it.

    Yes Taylor's accent was terrible. Who is the hotter of the two? They're both not that hot.

    Wait, isn't the thread starter that person that ran around complaining about Megan being cast in the first place? Made some big hoo-ha and so on.

    I'm sorry, I don't mean to be harsh but after your display in this thread, you should seriously just quit posting. It may actually be for the best. If you can't have more than one emotion (jealousy), then posting may simply not be the right gig.

    Wow, that's ridiculously harsh. I apologize. Sort of.

    So, in my other thread I gave examples of where I thought she was awesome, do any of you guys want to quote some specific lines or scenes so I can get where you are coming from?

    I can't see what is the problem with her acting. I think she made it just right.

    I have to agree that her acting was very low par. Not only that but I didn't particularly like her character. She was very Mary Sue aka a very 'perfect' character. Like only having flaws that will only make her better and having 'convenient' skills. The fact that she nearly posed for every shot she was in kind of irritated me as well. She was more for eye candy then a plot character. Another reason why I don't like model actress' -_-;; Also the fact that Spike went for the popular girl kind of makes him seem to be the shallow one >o>;;

    Rachael Taylor's accent was a bit too occa for my liking =/ Being an Aussie I do know the accent very well. But sometimes...it can be a bit too overboard ^^; But I guess she can't help her accent so I wont hold it against her.

    Megan was in the film to be a fine piece of ass, which she succeeding in being.

    Who cares how well she acted?

    Exactly. This is a summer popcorn flick by Michael Bay. We're not looking for acting Oscars here. And she wasn't THAT bad, there's been far worse.

    Anyone remember someone named Uma Thurman in a little moving picture called "Batman and Robin"...?

    Ugh, I refuse to ever watch that movie again.



    As for Megan Fox, she was fine. Like other mentioned, she wasn't as bad as Kirsten Dunst in the Spider-Man films.

    I guess you needed an Oscar nominated / Academy Awarded young actress to be in Transformers to please you

    Ok well I guess TF2 is never happening, thanks to you

    She wasn't bad in the movie at all. Very convincing. She was sad when she needed to be sad, angry when she needed to be angry and so on...

    Shia was awesome though!:lol  That guy is just tons 'o' laughs! But it wasn't all ha ha with him, which is good.

    Megan Fox was fine for the film. I had my doubts going into the movie, I though she was just going to be dumb eye candy. As it turns out, yes, she was indeed eye candy (though I never really care for that sort of things in movies, if I want to see hot chicks just to see hot chicks, I'll watch porn, not Transformers).

    Still, she impressed me. Her performance isn't anything to write home about, but it was not bad by any means. She carried the movie well, and her character was likeable. Taylor is also good in her role (that accent is adorable, even if others find it forced - isn't it her natural accent, I thought?).

    So yeah, the two ladies aren't brilliant, but to say Fox should just quit all together is rather harsh.

    I still Labeouf's performance is still the best, he really steals the show at times. And stealing the show from Optimus Prime is quite a feat indeed!

    Its not to hard to be better than Natalie Portman in Star Wars...now being better than Natalie Portman in V for Vendetta is something different.

    I though Megan Fox is a good job....now that code breaker girl was pretty bad...but she did get to sit in on the scene with the magically reappearing doughnuts!

    I think everyone played their roles well.
    It was a summer blockbuster action movie -nothing more or less.
    Truthfully, I expected to have a lot more trite and cornball dialogue in the movie than there actually was.

    Megan and Rachel are both very pretty and they didn't really get enough screen time to flesh out their characters with solid exposition or possibly ruin the movie with stale acting (which I don't think their performances were stale).

    I also think its funny (and not in a humorous way) that half of Conceptron's posts seem to be personally against Megan Fox.

    Perhaps he asked her out and she said no.

    Wow. That's impressively opinionated.

    I thought Taylor's accent was mighty sexy. Hot Australian blonde chick? Rawwrrr.
