But will these non-TFans like stupid jokes like a dog peeing on a robots leg?

Jeez, what am I saying? The cinema where I work just had it's busiest week ever thanks to the schoolkids being on holiday and 'Epic Movie', of all things, being released.

No, Epic Movie is better because it was made to be stupid.

To Milanon: I think "millions" and "making up for it" is an exxageration. The Transformers fanbase is, at the most, half a million people(including people who are not on this board). The kids who dabble in Transformers(around a million) will instantly know the difference, because of the massacred looks and the PG-13 rating. Then there are the millions of adults who liked Transformers as kids, who will say "WTF" at first sight. If you think a million freaks that like this demonic "visualisation" of Transformers will make up for the millions of pissed-off Transformers fans who know their way around the grapevine, then you sure live in a wonderful world.

Sure.

Why can't anyone add on this site? If the movie were only to make $100 mil in the States (not even counting Worldwide box office) that is $12.5 million tickets at $8 each.

Half a million TF fans, as you put it, only adds up to $4 mil. So guess where the other $96 mil is going to come from?

Never mind, I'll just tell you: the 12 million non-fans.

Not to mention the fans and non/fans alike who will go see it two or three times like me.

Milanion, please, use some common sense here. Clearly the Transformers fanbase, about half of which likes what they've seen of the movie, is enough to derail millions of dollars of marketting in less than a week.

Clearly this is only logical. :roll:

I also agree with Bay. The G1 robots don't look realistic, and couldn't even pass of as modern normal Transformers.

I can't wait to see this movie. Not only is it an action movie with giant robots, but the Transformers also have their own personalities which will be interesting to see on the big screen and in live action.

You're right. I was clearly blinded by facts again. I shall avoid them in the future!

This has just made me physically sick, like the guy in Clerks 2 when he's arguing with Randall about LOTR.

Gobots are like the K-Mart Transformers!

I for one am happy that I don't know what to expect. The problem with the recent comic movies is if you read the comic you know what's gonna happen. All bets are off on Transformers. They're starting fresh ad i couldn't be happier.

I feel sorry for the Seibs members who only fight the good fight. I thank you from the bottom of my brandy.
