Love your car, but don't LOVE your car.

You all should go see the Transformers movie. It is awesome.

(Where "Awesome" here is to mean "full of giant robots blowing shit up." Just in case you wanted clarification.)

However, I must admit that despite Awkward Neurotic Boy declaring loudly, "I love my car!" and being otherwise obsessed, I still TOTALLY MISSED half of the romantic subplot.

And so was completely lost going into this scene:

 
Car-Robot: Optimus Prime, I want to remain with Awkward Neurotic Boy.
Optimus Prime: Well, uh, um. Okay. If that's what he wants?
Awkward Neurotic Boy: *choked up* I do. Yes.
Refreshingly Kick-Ass Love Interest: *beaming sappily*
Awkward Neurotic Boy: *beaming sappily*
Car-Robot: *creepy cgi expression of beaming sappily*

Karen: Huh. That was inexplicably charged with emotion.

Movie: CUTS TO MAKE-OUT SCENE
Movie: *Close up on Refreshingly-Kick-Ass-Love-Interest lying on Awkward-Neurotic-Boy lying on Car-Robot*

Karen: OH. I SEE. OKAY THEN.

Movie: PANS TO GIANT ROBOTS SKULKING IN BACKGROUND OF MAKE-OUT SCENE.
Optimus Prime: And we're here watching over you.

Karen: ...
Karen: I THINK POSSIBLY NOT THE MORAL I WAS MEANT TO BRING AWAY FROM THIS MOVIE.
Audience: *giggles in agreement*

 

But no. It's a fun couple hours. Check it out.

"I do not care how cool your buddy is. You don't climb on top of him and start having sex with your girlfriend!"
"Unless you want him to join in..."
"Hey, hey, SHUT UP. I thought we agreed on how this intervention was going to go."

From that emotional "I wish to remain" scene, I think that arrangement is what they agreed to. *haunted look*
