10 Movies That Prove Pod People Run Hollywood
1. Transformers: Dark Of The Moon
Michael Bay is like a man who crashes a party with a megaphone – his only aim is to be as loud and obnoxious as possible. Or is he attempting to distract us while Pod People take over Santa Mira?
Transformers 3 is just like its predecessors, only longer and minus Megan Fox, who missed out on the picture after comparing Bay to Hitler in an interview. She’s been replaced by Victoria’s Secret model Rosie Huntington-Whitely, and you can say this about her: for a facsimile of a human being, she sure knows how to wear panties.
Also around, cast in the role of ethnic minority used for “comic relief”, is Ken Jeong as a mole called “Deep Wang” (the funniest ‘joke’ in the film, by the way). He performs some pratfalls, asks John Malkovitch “Are you up in my sh*t?” and pulls two guns on his computer when it transforms into a Decepticon. “Somebody messed with the wrong Wang today!” he hollers, before the bot pitches him through a window.
Still, at least we’ve been spared the dialect humour of Skids and Mudflap (“Boogy boogy boogy boo!”), who threatened to turn Revenge of the Fallen into a minstrel show.
