For those of us who do most of our driving Monday to Friday, to and from work, electric makes sense. A 150 mile range is more than adequate when you just plug it in at night. Arguments about distance ignore the huge amount of fuel we wouldn't burn on short hops. Keep a fun one for weekends and a leccy for the grind.

Oh man, can I have a walk-on part as an Australian surfer* who makes smart arse remarks while being eaten?

*I cannot surf

Invite sent.

Sycophants!

*quietly creates groups*

I have the invites if you need them, but think this is a bad idea and won't be participating in broadcasts outside of standard channels.

That's insufferably self aggrandising.

I saw Transformers; pretty lady, explosions, and robots for 240 minutes.

As mentioned above the story is a mess, there is some spectacularly bad dialogue, and it's even more "America, Fuck Yeah!" than Team America. That said I couldn't help watching this film and thinking that Bay was being a little ironic. It's bad in a way that Uwe Boll films are bad, he knows he's making schlock and that it's exactly what his audience wants.

At the end of the day all Transformers media exists to promote the toy lines; the cartoon series and the films are just there to drive sales. From that perspective, the film works. It's dumb and explodey, but the target audience are tweens; what do you want, Shakespeare?
