I want more hot robot-on-robot action! More ninja rolls! More Optimus Prime slugging sucker-bots in the face!

As for the black computer hacker, that is the type of wonderful comedic relief that the actor playing him (Anthony Anderson) has been doing for years. And Tyrese Gibson's Special Forces character, who I expected to die immediately, gets through the movie just fine. At first I did think of Jazz's death as "the only black transformer got killed", but you figure one of the Autobots had to die in the plot, and it was a better twist than what I assumed was going to happen (either the glorious, pious, Optimus Prime self-sacrifice with a gigantic explosion, or the heart-tugging death of precious, yellow Bumblebee). Besides, in the traditional storyline, ALOT of them end up dead at some point, including that dork Optimus Prime.

I never watched it because my mother never let me watch any of those Saturday morning cartoons. In fact, I recall my third birthday party going down as such: I was annoyed that there were all these people in the house eating my Fruit Loops, and most of the gifts I got were things like little basketballs and cartoon action figures. My mother says that when I took the wrapping off a Skeletor action figure, I had a look on my face that said, "What the hell is this thing?" Michael Bay's daughter was in my sister's Brownie troop. My mother says he's a total ass. Unless that was Michael Mann. One of the things I recall about my best friend from kindergarden is that he really really liked the Transformers.
