I'm a good mother.....

[pat]

Within the span of four days I have taken kids to see The Simpsons movie and, God help me, Transformers: The Movie. With the latter, I knew I was in for a long two hours when it opens with a character talking about his grandmother's alligator etouffee, and then starts speaking in Spanish.

I will say that a) the transformers themselves were pretty cool (although I found the Decepticons (bad transformers) more interesting than the Autobots (good transformers)) and b) it was nice that they had a female romantic interest/sidekick who was tough, independent, mechanically inclined and who wields a mean reciprocating saw.
