Conflict, or more accurately differing of opinions, are what give forums life.

I don't think i'd want to see a forum where everybody got a long and agreed on everything.

Wow! True! The forum would be boring and there would be nothing to talk about. And the forum would die in a giant pit of everlasting fiery doom.


*Probably*

But it would be good because it wouldn't make me pissed

If stuff on an internet forum pisses you off then I suggest either anger management therapy or an analysis on your life, because really, it's an internet forum.

Protip: For the amount of people that share your opinion, there will be an equal amount of people that don't. Even after the movies stop, there will always be people here who will have opinions different from yours. Conflict exist.. it's been part of humankind for centuries. The key is to understand why instead of getting all riled up about. Take the high road and move along.

Oh ye of little faith, give it time. When it comes to Movie-verse vs Traditional-verse, there are no shortage of flames. In fact another whole new thread already started about yet another G1/Movie conflict....I think it should be merged with this said thread. A Thread...combiner if you will lol

I was just talking about this thread's flames, not the whole conflict.
I almost can't wait to just get the moveverse over with so there's no chance of conflict coming up again.
I bet in 20 years we'll all look back on the movies and all the arguments and laugh.

You must be new to the fandom, people have been yelling "RUINED FORVER!!!!!" about everything since 1986.

Al Gore invented the internet so that G1 Fanboys could vent their frustration at the death of Optimus and the douchebaginess of Rodimus!1111!111!1ONEELEVEN!!11

I have my issues with the movie and I let my opinion be known, but a lot of things that I have and will say again in the future about the movieverse, is because I already know the reaction I'm going to get and it makes me chuckle. It's all in fun. But this is just a internet forum for all of us Transformers fans to discuss a franchise that we all enjoy. At the end of the day, it is an internet forum, and when we log off we're all going to go about our everyday lives. And everyone should also be happy there are people who loved and hated the movie. It's because of the people who liked the movie so much and had a hand in how much money it made that a third one is coming out, and to bring you more of what you like. And with all the people who didn't like the movie and criticized it, trust me the writers, director, and producers all heard it and will fix those flaws. All of that will lead to a better movie.

So, you take pleasure in pissing people off, causing them to slit their wrists, get piss drunk, smash their TVs, want to forget, punch holes in walls, and have suicidal thoughts? AWESOME!

Good point. If everyone had the same opinion, there would be no forums at all. And if everyone all agreed on everything, we would have a rather boring atmosphere of nothingness instead of the world we live in. Conflicts can be good in many situations.

Oh no way dude. I would just like to get this particular one overwith. I'll enjoy my movie, buy it and the cast in toys, have fun, and move on.
I have also used the "ruined FOREVER" phrase excessively on the forum. I believe there is no such thing as "ruined FOREVER" unless a series does in fact prove to hurt the franchise.

He has a tendency to repeat my points. It's understandable, i'm cool, people want to be cool as me.

Yeah! Moderators rock, how did you become one?

Noooooooooooooo......

So close to Christmas! I still say this thread be combined with others, like the new random post of some guys letter to McBay about the disappointing teaser trailer which had it's debut this winter.

I have to say, it wasn't anything special. I recently saw Tron in 3D, and sadly the TF3 trailer did what I thought it was going to do once all the fast paced blurry screen pans began to happen....just make me dizzy. Though everything was really shiny, I'll give em that.

Yeah I'm always striving to be as cool as you.
Whatever you say Burn...
And I'm sorry if I repeat your points. I'm not trying to claim them as my own. I usually think they're worthy of being said multiple times to get the point across.

Even though I posted this thread, I still want it dead. I said something stupid and immature, so I think it's time for this subject to move on in anticipation of the new movie.
And I think the Bay letter is too different to be combined with this. This thread has nothing to do with the teaser trailer. Plus, I'm perfectly content with the the movie universe as it is now, and the guy with the letter demands a "Bayformer reform" into a total G1 homage basically.

I thought the premise of this thread was innocent enough. OptiMaguns10 just wanted to know why some people who absolutely hate the movies feel they need to hate on people who don't hate the movies. Of course, being the Internets and all, there was much explosion just like a Michael Bay movie. And since Al Gore invented the Internets, this explosion has further expanded his personal carbon footprint. Thus, this thread has now transcended from our plane of existence back into the Allspark of Primus himself. So, basically, OptiMagnus10 made Al Gore blow up Primus through the work of Michael Bay.

Everybody got that?

I lost you on the fourth sentence there.

Beginning with the premise that anything discussed on an Internet message board has the potential to blow up into something else entirely (thus the mention of Michael Bay), here is the explanation of my analogy:

When Gore was running for president somehow he either said or someone attributed to him the quote that he created the Internet (during his time in congress when the original network system created for the purpose of allowing the military to communicate in another way in case of emergency was beginning to expand into something bigger thanks to some college campuses).

I use the term Internets because that's a reference to a W. Bush slip up (a fun joke whether one agrees or disagrees with his policies).

Finally, Gore became Mr. Green Energy save the planet from Global Warming aka Climate Change (because heaven forbid our whether has a cyclical pattern of its own and humans have very little to do with how that cycle works, but try explaining common sense to scientists who alter data to prove they are correct) after he lost his campaign, but has a carbon footprint larger than some cities from his mansion alone, forget any other property he has or use of transportation to travel the world to champion his cause.

So, understanding the back story to my comments, the paragraph I wrote will hopefully make you ROTFLYAO!

Bush: Heh. Heh. Internets. I like sayin' Internets.
Okay I'm done with that. But yes, now this makes sense (in which I believe global warming is just a pattern).
I'm not a fan of Gore either anyway.

I have a family friend who is 3 or 4 and he loves the movies. i think the movies are a good way to open up the transformers franchise to new audiences, it appeals to die-hards, newbies, and people that barely know who Optimus Prime is. the same thing is also true about comic book and video game movies, either you like for the twist it put on existing plot or you hate it for being not the exact plot.

Doesn't everyone like saying Internets? Best gaff ever. Take that Biden!
