To be honest I think Transformers movies are not oscars material.

Actually, the only thing I can rescue from the movies are the redesigns of the characters which I like the most.
I didn't even bought all the characters toys, I just pick the ones I thought were the best executed.

I only watched transformers on the theater once each, and I haven't been interested on watch them again, not even on cable.

Transformers Prime is a much better show. I have watched the entire first season twice, while I wait for the second.
You don't need to dinamite every single pixel on screen or to make a close up of some blonde ass to make something
that people will want to watch over and over.

I don't hate transformers movies, I liked them while I was on the theater.
But they have a flavor that don't last enough.

I agree and in the categories TF3 was nominated, it's still about how sound or effects assist to tell the story. With all the TF films, story took a back seat to great, in-your-face effects.

TF3 was probably the most technically advanced film of the year. I think we can all agree on that. But the better story always wins the day in Hollywood, especially when awards season roles around.

Eh, not surprised. Hugo was obviously going to be the "movie that no one heard of that won all the awards" since we first heard the nominations.

It's not like DotM's billions earned, upcoming sequel, theme park ride, and toys are in any way tarnished.

Seriously, did anyone really think that DOTM would win?

I'm more interested in the comedy awards anyway, at least those are mostly funny.

And you'd be kidding yourself if you think if Transformers was more story driven than it was (like the movie or not, it did have a story) that it would have had a chance against movies like HUGO.
The Academy awards are not for movies like TF. Heck, IMO, Planet of the Apes proabably should have won, but we all know it never had a chance either.

Sorry guys, Hugo was extremely well received. DOTM was not. Everyone knew it had no chance of winning.


And if they did win all three, or even one award all the haters would be saying the exact same thing.

"The story still sucked WAH!"

How could DotM lose all three awards to Hugo? There weren't even any good effects in Hugo! There weren't any good sounds either. Hugo was all-around average. DotM should have won at least the special effects awards.

Well, that is just your problem I guess.

BTW; many of you who have posted critical comments here were most likely exited to hear about TF3 getting nominated some months ago, but now suddenly oscars are just a joke, bullshit, rigged etc. Funny how it always goes. Then again, should TF3 had won something, would you still consider oscars being a joke, bs and so on. Obviously yes, for that's what you are saying here.

See. Isn't that just great that TF didn't win anything? Thank god for that... So why are you so upset :grin: ?

Like i said, its a double edge sword. If the movie had won awards many of the "haters" would have made simular excuses that those that are upset that the movie didn't win. Now keep in mind i said many and not all. many here that have called "bullshit" vocalized before hand that they knew DOTM weren't going to win. Once i saw the nominees i knew DOTM along with others that were truely worthy of the visual awards (planet of the Apes), they weren't going to win. They rarely if ever do. These awards always focus on the "arts-y" type movies. NOt action pop corn flicks.

And the Transformers movies were only made to make money, so what exactly qualifies as a good movie? That is a question that can only be answered by your own opinion and applies only to you.

Evil_the_Nub wrote:I quit caring about the Oscars a long time ago because of that, this is yet another nail in that coffin.

And if Transformers had won an Oscar you'd be saying that the Oscars had finally changed their ways and started to improve. Let's be honest, there's going to be quite a bit of bias floating around no matter which side of the fence you come down on. I could argue that if it wasn't for the Oscars then movies like The King's Speech, A Beautiful Mind or Gandhi would never win an award.

If it weren't for the Oscars movies like The King's Speech, A Beautiful Mind, and Gandhi would never have been made. That's my point, they make the same cookie cutter Oscarbait movies every year just so they can win a trophy and feel important. Rarely are these movies memorable. Take 2008 for example, what won best picture? Slumdog Millionaire. What else came out in 2008? The Dark Knight, which wasn't even nominated. Which movie has already been forgotten and which is going to be a classic? I'll give you a clue, nobody is eager to see The Slumdog Rises. They give these trophies to the movies that follow the same formula, whether or not they're the best. That's what makes it a circle jerking joke. It's not "Best Picture" or "Best Visual Effects" it's Best Picture and Visual Effects that follows the same recipe year after year.

OK, two things here:

The Dark Knight is part of nerd culture and already had a huge fanbase because of the previous Batman comics, movies and TV shows. It got a huge amount of attention due to Heath Ledger dying and actually did win a lot of awards. Slumdog Millionare was a stand-alone movie.

Secondly, DOTM is not a classic and simple things like Hugh Jackman's opening to the 2008 Oscars is far more memorable than the entire flick.

I'm not denying there is such a thing as Oscar bait, but really, I can just imagine the fanwank that would occur had DOTM won an award. This site, for instance, would be shoe-horning "Oscar-Award Winning DOTM" on every second news post. Transfans would care if DOTM had won an award.

It is sad that what we're supposed to see as the most knowledgeable source of quality in the film industry has devolved into a self gratifying clusterfrak that is the modern Academy. Remember this is the same group of people that gave animated films their own "best picture" category rather than even consider them for a true Best Picture award. Nowadays the Academy is at best a joke held in high regard by those who can't let go and believe them to still be a group who's opinions are valid.

A fan of film who knows their stuff would not consider anything from the Oscars as a sign of quality. Studio pay offs and radical conservatism win more Oscars than quality film making.

My bad. I focused on the entirely ridiculous part of your post instead of the whiny.

I'm really not getting the whole hate for the Oscars thing. There is no monetary award and getting an Oscar wouldn't make people think DOTM is any better than it already isn't.

There's still a lot of good things about the Oscars. It's a red-carpet event so we get some of the best fashions for the year, when the host is good we get funny performances and if nobody cares about who wins the awards it's not hurting anyone.

I always did love your ability to resort to insulting people rather than try to bring up a convincing argument.

You've also gone and proven you think that it's a glorified popularity contest with your latter statement. So by extension why do you care if Transformers didn't win? It sure seemed worth laughing at didn't it. :roll:

Since you must know, Oscar hate is valid because any institution that tries to apply quality in an untrustworthy way is worth condemnation. It's the same reason video game reviewers are looked upon with scorn since no AAA title is released without all the big name critics in the pocket of developers.

It works the same way with film critics too, lest you forget Ebert thought Garfield and Knowing where four star quality. :lol:

Oh, i agree with you. Back in the 70's Dustin hoffman called the Oscars the biggest joke of the film industry. Making claims that it was rigged and that everyone knew who was going to win before they even won... That is untill, he won an Oscar. all of a sudden it was the biggest honor in his career. :HEADHURTS:

Um, no. Being entertained by the entertainment in the Oscar awards proves nothing. It just means I don't find it boring.
And I really don't care if they won or didn't win, I do care that Transfans are making a gigantic deal over the fact that they didn't win, even though they knew they wouldn't.
