    Saw that.

    So glad this non issue is getting the exposure it don’t deserve.

  2. Oh FFS. You know what they say about movies released in January don’t you? They’re usually the stinkers of the bunch. In February its a sure bet. I’ll be damned if I’m going out in 2 to 3 feet of snow to pay good money to watch that shit.

  3. Carly Fiorina sees the trailer “with her own eyes” and demands Obama’s and Hillary’s arrest in 3, 2, 1 …

    Benghazi was always a right-wing fetish; nobody else cares. Guys, a heads up: don’t take your hot date to see it – you’ll never get laid.

  5. Read elsewhere that Bay was incensed that he had to BEG for another 10 million to finish his ‘film’. A man like this has 10 million lying around the house … if he had to beg for the money it’s because the film is either a dog or he is not committed to it.
