Shortening the run-time would probably increase the percentage of robot time, yes. But at the same time a lot of casual cinemagoers love the scenes that don't have Transformers in them as much as the ones with - you watch them in the cinema and people love awkward Sam at school or Marky Mark's zany farm.<br /><br />Personally though I think that yes, two hours is about right. But the scripts always try to do too much - AOE especially suffered from having two plots that were forced together when the logical answer was to stick with one and work it better.

Obviously they won't, I'm just saying that it should make them able to.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16516477518308040683noreply@blogger.com
