It seems as though there are dissenting voices coming from the cast of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen regarding Nintendo's Wii console. Why, just the other day, Shia LaBeouf expressed to the world his discontent with the system and those employing it for gaming -- that group of people apparently including his cast mate, Megan Fox.
In an interview with WhatTheyPlay.com, Fox said, "I'm totally a fan of the Wii, I'm just not good at it." As LaBeouf (S. Beef to us) noted in his interview with Joystiq sister site Big Download, the two were playing LEGO Star Wars most recently, though Fox has some rather specific complaints about the game, telling the interviewer, "One thing I don't like about that game is that if one person is lagging behind and wants to check something out, and you're running ahead, you drag the screen with you -- you can't stay separate when you're playing on a team together ... that becomes annoying." Point taken! Apparently the lady knows her games, eh? Care for a guest column, Ms. Fox?

Well I guess both experts have weighed in on the Wii now.
Why would anyone give a shit what an actor/actress says? Didn't your parents teach you guys anything?

Epic Fail Joystiq. Why doesn't this post include a Megan Fox gallery that's vast majority of pics include her bending over things in short shorts?

HA! An attractive woman likes to play the Wii! No REAL man would play such a console! She probably gave it cooties!

Stop god damn posting these stupid celebrity worship pieces on Joystiq. Nerds largely aren't concerned with worthless celebrities, and it diminishes the integrity of the website.
Seriously, it agitates me greatly whenever I see one of these articles, just because video games are becoming a mainstream hobby shouldn't mean we have to be engulfed in the sea of hollywood dogshit that consumes the rest of the media and press.

Megan Fox is hot in a sorta trashy way. Not everyone's cup of tea of course, but she actually seems to have a smart personality. Megan Fox has almost constantly said in interviews that she understands she is seen as a sex symbol and she is using that to her advantage to build up public awareness.
Kinda like what Angeline Jolie did. She showed up as "the hot girl" early on and now she's considered a AAA actress. I think Fox deserves the benefit of the doubt, but in the Transformers movies she did do some pretty bland acting. Better in TF2, but still.
Overall? She's a sex icon who, given time, may eventually become an important actress.

that's not true... Jolie already made several good movies before becoming the official hot girl of the moment and women have always liked her (very important if you're female and you want a long career in Hollywood). Megan's path is more similar to Jessica Alba or Jessica Biel- a few action movies, a few Maxim photoshoots and you're pretty much over by the time the next pretty young face comes along.

So she's totally a fan of the Wii, but she's not any good at it. A console made for 5 year old little kids, and it's too hard for her. Yep, her opinion is duly noted. Shia was right.

All you need to know about this "sex symbol":
http://movies.msn.com/megan-fox-pop5/photo-gallery/feature/?photoidx=3
Megan has been outspoken about her bisexuality; however, she has an interesting take on what bisexuality means for her. In May 2009, she said, "I would never date a girl who was bisexual, because that means they also sleep with men, and men are so dirty that I'd never want to sleep with a girl who had slept with a man."
Trash worships trash. Her opinion of the male gender severely lacks. And if you think she is hot, you are just another cog in the machine that pays her well.
Her acting skills, if you can call them that, are horrid. And TF2 is one big steaming pile of FAIL. 149 minutes of "WTF?!!"
If she games IRL, fine, but if this was Rosie O'Donnell none of you would care.
Well, the only difference between her and Rosie it seems is her age.
XBox 360 - I would be angrier about TF2 if the movie ticket was not a freebie.

I never get people like you. You seem to be insulting people that like Megan fox. Not that I think she is the best woman out there, she isn't my type (not a tattoo man)but the idea that if anybody likes Megan fox is "the cog in the machine that pays her" is hilarious.
You went to her film FOR FREE. You sat there obviously knowing about her before hand and watched her film, then mount your high horse and look down at anybody else who decides they will go for enjoyment. My hate for transformers the movie has been documented but the only thing worse than a bad movie is a hypocrite.
So what was the idea? If the movie was good Yea for me, If the movie is bad BOO Megan Fox. Of course it is all her fault, you accuse people of being cogs but reap the benefits of that machine when it suits you, that isn't being free thinking that is just being an opportunist.
See this is how you prove people like Megan Fox right about men, you think she is trash but you aren't to good not to watch that Trash for 149 minutes right. Now women like Megan are betting you aren't to good to turn a woman down who you hate as long as she looks good. Right?? RIGHT?????
By the way Rosie O Donald maybe a jerk but she has done many things for childrens's charities, and I mean it must be so cooperate to come out the closet, I mean look how great her career is being out spoken and having an opinion. Same as Megan Fox. She doesn't smile and look Dopey at the camera like lets say I don't know...Every other female star does.
But no you are so original With your Megan Fox hate, I mean nobody does that, pfft I mean you went against the Machine man you went against Rossie O Donald and Megan Fox America's Sweet hearts. Don't shock me now.

WROOOONG WROOOOONG!! Transformers 2 was anything but fail. As someone who vehemently hated the first, it was awesome. Sure, the acting was bad, the dialogue was terrible, it dragged, it had stupid things like the twin robots and the plot was a little nonsensical. But the action scenes were waaaaay better than the first. I could watch that fight scene in the forest or the final fight a billion times, absolute fucking win.

@ Zsavior:
Oh geez, here comes the Megan Fox Defense Force (MFDF) - and if you think rushing to defend the "honor" of Megan Fox means anything, you are as big of a loser as the poor guy photographed trying to give Megan Fox a flower and she totally ignored him. Funny picture; like Bart Simpson said "you can tell the exact moment his heart broke"...
For starters, I did not go to film JUST FOR Megan Fox you dullard. I got the ticket from a friend who worked at a radio station and had it handy.I went for the same reason anyone who grew up in the 1980s went - GIANT. F'KING. ROBOTS.
If you think Megan Fox was my draw, I strongly urge you to clear that incorrect thought out of your head. I watched 149 minutes of trash because Michael Bay decided to do other things other than actually make this film worthwhile. Anyone can draw out a pair of scenes of any movie and say "worth the price of admission" - but that is rarely ever enough to keep an entire film interesting, let alone one that goes 149 minutes.
Third, guess what? SHE ADDED NOTHING. No really, I can say whatever I want about that because you know what? I CAN. Just like you can as well. I never said otherwise, but oh BAH GAWD! HOWZ YOU CAN INSULT PRETTY MEGAN BARK BARK RAWWWKKKK!!!!! Geez, change the record Dorothy - we are not in Kansas anymore you know.
I seemed to have ticked off your fanboy/fanfiction/under the sheets dreaming or whatever your call it. Well, TOO BAD. Any my high horse is just that - because this time it is based on something SHE SAID. So what you are telling me is that I can not be disgusted and appalled by a person because she is an actress? Oh, please, please, GROW. A. PAIR. LITTLE. BOY.
Well guess what? She thinks her audience is a bunch of dirty people who have no chance of ever being "good" for her. So yeah, YOU ARE DAMN RIGHT I am rolling out the Rosie comparisons. And those words came from her own mouth. If you want to be mad at someone, be mad at the person openly insulting my gender.
Once you are quoted on something, it is attached to you no matter what you do.
As for "coming out of the closet" as you say: 1)It IS trendy right now, you think homeboy from American Idol did that interview in Rolling Stone just because? 2)Book your time with the shrink, because your anger seemed to stem from the fact I have just pretty much stated an opinion to wake some of you fools up. Maybe you should be checking your closet and your psychosis issues to go along with it.
