You either love, hate or tolerate the Transformers movies. Personally, as someone who never grew up interested in the comic books or animated series, I've never had too much of a problem with the three Michael Bay helmed adaptations. They're not great when it comes to acting or story, but the sheer spectacle of the visual effects have always been enough that I've managed to gain some enjoyment from them. Dark of the Moon was an improvement on the second and some decent 3D effects elevated it from being just another two and a half hours of robots frantically punching each other (even though it was). Well, the Razzies have decided that the movie is worthy of plenty of awards! Just not the good kind...
