Bayista film and history buffs might want to get down to the Castro, as it's been re-70s-ified for Gus Van Zandt's Harvey Milk biopic.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I'm watching Transformers, or, actually, I'm in the same room where the movie is playing. So I'm more in tune with the music than the visuals. It's a whack score - Bay jumps from one piece to the next abruptly, without transition. And they are almost all jokes.
The long shot of the Navy fleet - the music is the Pirates of the Caribbean theme.
The running battle on the LA freeways - the music is the Terminator theme.
The siege scene, with SECDEF and the hackers firing shotguns at the decepticon - the music is Assault on Precinct 13.
There was the Exorcist theme at one point too, but I don't know what was on the screen.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I was wondering whether the resemblance was intentional. I'm glad you pointed out the humor.

Well, I'm hoping it's humor.

Her physicality was definitely good. And that scene where she pumps the shotgun one-handed may be burnt on my retinas forever. Girlcrush!
That bit, and her doing pullups on her bunk.

there's a bunk joke in there somewhere but I can't seem to come up with it.

I was wondering whether the resemblance was intentional.
The music in Transformers is by Steve Jablonsky, who's from the Hans Zimmer stable. He's actually worked on PotC 1, Bad Boys, and (amusingly) Team America: World Police. So yeah, probably sounds exactly the same.

oh good I'm glad I skipped it. The most interesting thing I heard about the movie was that the costume designers found it very frustrating trying to design dresses that Heigl looked bad in.

Believe me, they rose to the occasion.
There's about 3 minutes of her and Marsden singing "Benny and the Jets" that's actually entertaining, but I'd advise just waiting til that clip makes it to YouTube.
