The death of my Step-father. He raised me as his own, and helped me a lot through the years. I was devestated upon his death, and I totally changed my life afterwards. I moved out of state and started totally new. That, and the break up between me and my first girlfriend. It wasn't so much the break...

Nope, it's called admitting to your mistakes. In which I did. So :p

Sorry, Starscreamsghost, you lost me when you start calling people half-wits and telling us what we should or should not like. I liked Jay and Silent Bob so that makes me a half-wit? You obvously missed the whole purpose and what Kevin Smith was saying. The movie was suppose to be corny, and full of...

Don't know about the shorter smoke stacks or the blue eyes, but Ultra Magnus' missile are probably due to today's standards for childrens toys. Those small missiles just aren't kosher for kids to swallow. BTW: Hot Rod's stickers look like they're foil or something...they shiney!

I actually like the Quints at some points. It always annoyed me to no end that the DC were the only villains of the story. Yes, it's a war between the two factions, but a little more variety would have made it better IMO.
