My only gripe was that I was hoping James Cameron would follow Micheal Bay, because if anyone on the planet has grounds to say "Sorry, you were talking about making money?" to Bay, it's Cameron. There's also a lot of fun material to mine with him for a verse.

I enjoyed all the ones they did cover. Fun stuff.

I have further thoughts, but I'll just quickly note that I held off from watching it online and saw it for the first time on an IMAX screen.

Shit was fantastic -- especially the X-Wings and Falcon.

I like what the iWatch does, though I like it for basically the same reasons I like the other half-dozen smartwatches that do the same thing. Just as in those cases, I'm not looking to spend that kind of money on what amounts to a minor peripheral for my phone with some fitness upgrades.

It seems like most of these companies are basically thinking "let's shrink a phone to watch-size, then solve the input issues", which just isn't really doing it for me. The more I thought about it after the event, the more I realized that it would have been a better idea for them to take a step back and really think about what you can and would want to do with a device on your wrist.

There's a lot of overlap, to be sure, but I think starting from scratch without the idea of what a smartphone already does (and looking at the Watch as a standalone item) could really open the door on some creative ideas.
