I don't like ANY sad movies. I like to be happy, not depressed.

Groucho 12-08-08 09:15 PM

I'm a dude. I've never seen a sad movie.

Just Optimus?

The first time I saw this I believe I was seven or eight years old. I'm trying to think of something more depressing than seeing just about every character getting blown to bits. Shit, some of the series biggest names were killed off-screen! (Wheeljack and others!) What happened to Starscream was just all kinds of wrong!

Running on Empty - Christine Lahti's scene with Steven Hill was heartbreaking, as was the final scene.
