No idea who that fella is.

First live action movie was great, the second was a complete abortion, and the third was like one of those fantastic BM's you have. You know, you sit down thinking the worst, but it just slides out perfect, no splash back, no excessive TP use. Makes you feel as if everything is right with the world.

OF course, end of the day, you realise its still crap.

My loyalty to Transformers will enable me to give the new trilogy the benefit of the doubt but i'm still gonna turn on the hate if its pants.

On Michael Bay:

I think Michael Bay has his ideas about it and I'm going to go along with him. He seems to know what he's doing.

You have NO IDEA how much I laughed at that.

Because you know how to make a movie better than Bay?

Michael Bay knows how to make a movie, one that's also very profitable

Fixed that for you.

I will say Michael Bay can make a movie when he makes something like Inception. Until then he makes a hefty profit in the film medium, but not a movie.

Three problems here, buddy. One: No True Scotsman is a logical fallacy. Just because you don't like his movies doesn't mean he doesn't know how to make them. Fact.

Two: Inception was more like a puerile attempt at a mindfrak film. Good for people who want to pretend they're smart, not so good when you really think about it.

Three: It's asinine to tell one director he's not good until he makes films outside his chosen directorial style. Would you tell a painter he's terrible until he starts sculpting? No, of course not.

TL;DR - Your fanboy is showing.

Okay technically yes, he makes movies. It's my right to make jokes at their expense because of how I perceive their quality. Happy?

Happy that I had to take time out of my day to remind you your opinion is just that? Not really. I was busy doing more fun things like writing tax papers and tending a chemical burn I recieved.

I'm fully aware that my opinions are just my opinions, thanks. You don't need to be the guy from Duty Calls.

I wonder if Michael Bay is aware or cares that his movie profit is coming out on the 30th anniversary of the franchise, and if so, whether that's going to be noted within the movie profit.

Not sure. Honestly I don't care if he cares. The last thing I want in a Transformers movie is a fan directing or producing it. I have never seen a movie adaptation made by a fan that was good.

If that's your best attempt at trolling me I'm going to ask that you step up your game.

Been honesty I get really annoyed with people judging Bay's films. I think he tries to make the best of him. I like the films even thinking the second was bad but we got a whole of nice toys and characters didn't we ?
And somebody just said an Irish Nascar driver? Nascar has different nationalities of drivers, I read that even Brazilians are there. Why not Irish? I hope the film to be cool with a new crew of Autobots and Decepticons.

I can live with the explosions and the ugly robots. I have to draw the line at the excess of body humor. I feel like that drags the movies down a LOT.

It's not that I want it to be directed by a fan, but SOMEBODY with a little more respect for what Transformers are besides giant robots that turn into cars. I want to see characters, not just bodies. And I don't want another trashy movie to commemorate the 30th anniversary of this franchise.
