And it's nice to see someone else with Transformers: The Movie on their list.

Comicbook movies seemed to peak with X2 - anything that's come since, I could provide a short essay explaining what I find flawed, from a comic-geek perspective and just as a movie in itself

And TF:TM has been just under Star Wars in my favourite movies since 1986 - I have a worn out videocassette and soundtrack tape, and currently have the original US DVD, the UK "Reconstructed" DVD, and fully intend to get the new 20th anniversary edition too! I like how it pulls no punches in the name of promoting the new toys, killing off the old ones - no last-minute dub here, when the Autobots are standing around Optimus, with Arcee saying he's gone into a coma...

Also a big reason why I'm a big James Cameron fan.

I remember watching it on tv many times when I was 10 or 12 but later on as an adult, I learned just how cool it was/is. Good call.

I loved 'em in the theaters and saw them multiple times each. I have the extended versions of them and watching them all back to back is quite an experience. Same with the 6 Star Wars movies. Back to the Future Indiana Jones Die Hard Lethal Weapon Alien(s)/Predator All are just great series of movies to enjoy back to back to back.
