Quick question for everyone.

I was just wondering if I was a little weird because when the first transformers movie came out I had to go see it, just to see the concept Camaro driving around? Like a 2 hour-long peep show to me. Was I one of the few to do this or was I in the majority to not care too much about the transformers only to have watched the movie to see the concept?

I remember looking forward to seeing the camaro soooooo much, people in the theater got up and cheered.

The movie being good was just a bonus...

and not to mention my boo's josh, tyrese, and shia.

I'm ashamed to admit it, but I didn't even know about the new camaro until I saw Transformers. But the second I got home I was on the net trying to find out when I could get my hands on one. Been hooked ever since.

The Camaro added to the excitement I had of seeing the movie. So it was a double whammy for me.

I'm a huge Transformers fan so was eagerly looking forward to the movie anyway. Having my favorite car in it was just an added bonus.

i made my girlfriend go out and rent it.

and half way through she turns to me and says...

"The only reason we're watching this is because of that car ... isnt it?"

i just kind of smiled... and turned back to the movie

I am a huge Transformers fan, so I went to see the movie, knowing that the car was in the movie just made it that much better... and like others, when the new Camaro made its debut, people cheered... it was one of the most awesome moments ever.

I remember seeing the Transformers trailer several times and really wasn't interested in seeing it. But then one day I was actually looking at the TV when the new Camaro was shown briefly and I jumped up and kept rewinding the DVR over and over and pointing at the TV and the wife was freaking out.....then I told her....its the new Camaro.....I'm going to see that movie.
