It's great turn-off-the-brain-and-enjoy fun. It's Michael Bay, don't expect Shakespeare, that's all.

It fucking blows. BAD.

Honestly I watched the 1985 animated Transformers movie yesterday and I was more impressed by it than the new film.

It had some good special effects, but was still mediocre at best.

Unicron

Orson Welles

Micheal Bay

Shia LaPoof

Spoilers from an Empire article:

spoiler (click to show/hide)

- Bay and LaBeouf confirm the Fallen is a separate character.
- Egyptian hieroglyphics …turn out to be depictions of Transformers who visited Earth.
- Bay claims Megatron is not coming back and the tank is just a new toy.
- Around 40 robots.
- Budget is $200 million.
- Ramon Rodriguez is the one holding on for dear life to a pole while cars are flung.
- Devastator appears at the pyramid, he’s probably 50 feet tall because that’s the height of the camera crane they used on location.

Superman Returns was better than Transformers. I'd say of the so called worst blockbusters this decade:

Superman Returns/Spider-Man 3/Star Wars Episode II/whatever else > Transformers > X-Men 3.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #20 on:** January 11, 2009, 05:45:49 PM »

Oh, thanks for reminding me

Superman Returns>X-Men 3>Transformers>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Attack of the Clones

TVC15 · « **Reply #21 on:** January 11, 2009, 05:59:03 PM »

X-Men 3 is better than SR and Transformers. X-Men 3 may be incoherent and stupid, but at least it's not LONG and stupid like SR and Transformers.

And I generally do not count the Star Wars prequels since after the first one, it was an established fact that all three would blow ass. Known quantities and all that.

There's not a single memorable action scene in Iron Man. Not to mention the lack of a memorable bad guy, just like Batman Begins. SR has similar problems but I kinda like it still, plus Kevin Spacy is hilarious in it

Iron Man is so forced. Totally dies after multiple viewings

I understand why so many hate Superman Returns and it really isn't that good of a movie at all, but I kinda in a weird way like it. Although I watched Superman I & II 93849295 times as a kid and am a pretty big fan of Bryan Singer so that might explain it.

A story that didn't suck and about 100% less John Turturro.

Edit: and fewer characters who could be written out of the script entirely with a single line of throwaway dialogue taking up all of Megatron's screen time.

That and toss out all the American Pie-lite "humor" and the scene with the President and some other people fighting the little robot guy.

I don't care much about the story or actors in a movie about robots fighting, but I sure would have liked to see the actual robots fighting instead of sunsets and shaky camera.

And don't forget all the stuff at the first of the movie with Shia's character being a loser and guys pick on him and he finally gets the girl but he's still a loser and his dad get him a new car but it's lame so he's still a loser and on and on.

Solo · « **Reply #52 on:** January 12, 2009, 04:24:27 PM »

The best part of the movie is where Shia is trying to find the MacGuffin in his room, and all the Transformers are outside trying to be "quiet". I dunno, amidst the pile of shit that the movie is, that was a fun scene, and almost felt like Spielberg had swapped his producer hat for his director one.

Come on Solo, don't let me down like that. Isn't that also the part where the Transformer takes a piss? And this is really Spielberg quality shit?

Seriously. The beginning with Bernie Mac was shit, the Megan Fox parts were shit, the parts with the hot computer scientists were shit, anything trying to give the plot any substance was shit, and (the highest offense) the action scenes were shit because they were so fucking incoherent. It was pretty, but I couldn't tell what was going on for the last twenty minutes. THE MOVIE GAVE ME A FUCKING MIGRANE FROM THE PISS POOR EDITING. It's like Bay and the editor took scissors to the fucking film rather than edit it into something coherent and something an audience can follow.

Just to crap on an already burning fire of shit, Bay puts LINKIN PARK AT THE END OF THE PICTURE.

Fuck Transformers. It's horrible cinema. Anyone who found enjoyment in the movie needs to go watch Die Hard or Terminator 2 or RoboCop and learn what a real action movie is.

No, it isnt that part (although the dog may piss on the Transformer in this scene, I cant quite remember). The scene Im talking about is Shia looking for something in his room, with his parents also moving around the house, with the robots basically destroying his backyard and popping in and out of site each time before the parents see them. Its inconsequential, but sort of light and fun, almost slapstick, and yeah, feels to me like a type of throwaway scene you'd see in a Spielberg movie.

I hope in the sequel Optimus Prime is chatting on Facebook with the other Autobots, and then he's like "OMG guys, somebody just uploaded videos of a Decepticon attack on Youtube! You have to see this!" and then when they click on the link, they get Rickrolled.

There ya go. What I'm looking at. I thought that was a pretty fucking stupid part though, mainly because no one in their right minds wouldn't think something was up outside from the noise those Transformers were making.

But hey, I'm talking about realism in Transformers lolz.

And sorry if I seem pissed, but I hate when I waste money on shitty movies, especially when there were better films out at the time. For example, I went and saw the Unborn with a friend of mine on Friday instead of Gran Torino. That shit is fresh on my mind. Fuck the Unborn and fuck Transformers.

Solo · « **Reply #59 on:** January 12, 2009, 04:45:00 PM »

Isnt that your own fault though for not making better (and blatantly obvious) choices on what you pay to see? I could tell you The Unborn would be shit from the first trailer and the people involved. Conversely, anything Eastwood does is at least worth a watch.
