Transformers Dark of the Moon is going to be 2 and a half hours...seriously!?

Ok, I know the movie isn't out yet, and I do want to really see it despite the "not so great" quality of the last Transformers movie, but one problem I can see for this movie already is it's running time of 2 and a half hours, which was one of the big issues with the last movie. Unnecessary length only takes away and waters down whatever integrity this movie has to offer. It's a big action blockbuster thats going to have big robot fights, explosions, sweaty people and a sci-fi story line that will bring together mostly kids and sci-finerds alike. Two hours should be it really, but we can only tell until the movie comes out, so until then, no further judgment, because it does look awesome. It's an action movie, not an addition to the lord of the rings, keep it short and sweet and us wanting more, because if the movie starts to go on too long and robots and explosions no longer keep my interest the story better better be amazing which I seriously doubt is going to be the case.
