Sorry, I didn't quite specify:
Three people just made large posts about why they should've made a sequel to a series most Americans aren't familiar with.

So he's a Pretender!? On the bright side, he could have been an octopus in a diving helmet.

We'll all line up to see it opening day, the studio knows that. 95% of the movie going public won't know or care that Frenzy doesn't look right or that Megatron doesn't act like Megatron. The movie will have lots of big explosions, car chases, load music and paper thin characters which is exactly what makes a summer blockbuster.
Godzilla 98 did good business, it made lots of money. But as a Godzilla movie it is a total failure, and honestly its not even a good sci-fi/giant critter movie.
Hype sells, explosions sell. Internet fanboys will never make or break a movie and the studios know it. I hope Transformers is awesome and totally puts my fears to rest. But I suspect it will be another noisy piece of hollywood fluff with the Transformers name attached.

He has a point. Let me ask you, why do you feel the need to try and ruin the movie, or force your belief in a movie being bad on everyone else. Are you so awesome that your point of view is the only right one? Why can you not accept that some fans like this movie? That some people like Godzilla '98, and consider it far superior to what came before? Why are you so arrogant and prickish?

Some of the Showa Godzilla films were cheap, yes, but to dismiss the Heisei films as 'rubber suits and cardboard buildings' it becomes obvious he hasn't seen them.

Shadowman's got a real point though. A lot of us are going to enjoy the movie, and a lot of us aren't (although I suspect almost all of us will see it regardless.) However, I think a lot (not all) of the people who aren't going to enjoy it, aren't going to enjoy it for the wrong reasons - because it isn't G1.
I laugh, because I know that thousands of movie-loving kiddies will be on their way to this forum soon to let everyone here know that TFM2007 roxxors!1!11! and is the "definitive" version of Transformers.

I've seen damn near every Godzilla film. I know full well what I'm comparing it to. When you place the old against the '98 movie, the old is cheap rubber suits and cardboard sets.
Now, that doesn't devalue your rose colored vision of it, but its still a rose colored vision. Just because you read something into a franchise, doesn't mean everyone else will as well, and it doesn't make you superior to them for not having the same interpretation.

Then Predator and the first two Alien films are crappy movies with cheap suits and cardboard sets, compared to the majesty of the special effects might of Godzilla or Van Helsing, right?
Godzilla flopped for a reason. Pretending it didn't doesn't change anything.

I hope you aren't tying to suggest that the "effects" and costumes of the old Godzilla movies are on par with Predator and the Alien films, are you?
