TF 2-Wow, TF 1 was so popular, I should branch out in part 2! Not the best move, but an awesome movie none the less, even with it's flaws
TF 3-Wow, the first two were VERY Popular, but the first one is supposedly better? Maybe I should go back to the basics, and branch out at the same time: Lesson learned. Also, 3D is kinda cool and makes more money and It's what the people love!
I was smart for making the wreckers different, they WERE Rednecks, but I listened to the people, and made them different at the last moment, and that turned out great!

Moral of the story is: Guy learned from what mistakes he made, made a few new ones along the way, Learned alot about his experience, and moved on, but if he decides to return, then more power to him for making a comeback! Honestly, With all he's learned, TF 4 by Michael Bay could be a good thing. DOTM Was not Flawless! Anything but! But with it's setbacks, it definantly opened up a new realm for Transformers in general! TF4 has so much to build on now because of bay. Three movies. all of them made so much money too! I think, that we, as the TF Fandom, owe him a dept of graditude for bringing this, dead thing, back to life, kicking and screaming and pulling in the dough! He's a director. He's hollywood. you want what is in your mind, a flawless transformers movie? Make it yourself! See how it stacks up. I await the final cut. Hell, if it looks good enough, I may go see it in theaters, like I did the first three transformers movies.


TF 1 was NOT like G1 at all. The Autobots don't even show up until the end of the movie. ROTF was more like G1 than anything.


Honestly dude, I do you get so defensive and mean towards others. Saying TF1 was not like G! at ALL is the biggest proof of denial I've ever heard in these films.

It really is. The presence of any Transformers in the 2007 movie instantly makes it like G1, wherein Transformers were present.
Aside from that, maybe there aren't any similarities. Afterall, the Autobots show up to save humans from the Decepticons as Megatron is trying to get his hands on the game changing item that will decidedly win the war for the Decepticons.
I mean, hell, there were no G1 episodes like that.
