You're absolutely correct. Because if they did cater to our whims they'd make a couple thousand bucks on the movie and it would be a bust.
People think it's some mysterious reason for why things are different. It's to make money folks. Most people want to go see an action flick with robots tearing each other to pieces and bad humor thrown in here and there. That's what Bay is giving them. As far as they're concerned to hell with the fans. I must say I don't blame them either. I want Transformers to be mainstream again. I want people to be talking about Optimus Prime (whatever version of him) while I'm walking around the mall. I'm tired of the same old crap year after year after year.
Theres a reason why the current shows can't even keep a set time. It's because no one cares about the show anymore. You think it was solely Bay who OK'ed the designs? Hell no! You have everyone from Spielberg to Aaron Archer signing off on this stuff. From the get go they probably had a meeting saying "we need to make this appeal to everyone if we hope to get people interested in Transformers again. Let's appeal to the sci-fi, action, adventure, horror etc. genre's. If it has a following then we need to get those people interested".
Our little minuscule cult following has no bearing whatsoever on this movie. And anyone who thought we would actually make a difference with our ranting and complaining was deluding themselves.

Seriously. Stop. If you don't like what they're doing you're welcome to comment on the designs and characters themselves. But DO NOT resort to personal insults against the people creating this movie.
Ah, just ignore him. Seems like everyone else does, especially cuz every single one of his comments slam the movie, and are no where near constructive or useful to any conversation.
