I think the movie did pretty well, no matter what any of you think. And I think that's all that matters.

Bay wins! TF2!

this movie. I'm sitting there trying to follow mom and pop's
gardening tips and learning a little about ebay
and these robot mayhem machines just kept ruining the plot.
I was a little disappointed Sam didn't have like a little
sister to tag along with him. What were they thinking.
I should write the script for TF2, then we could get all that
'robot' nonsense outta there.

i almost discharged my iced tea all over my tea board after reading this. i nearly forgot about the garden! god what an amazing garden it was. i wanted to make my own. and what about the non-humans like the dog. i think the dog should have its own spin off tv show.

wait so people went to see Transformers for the robots and NOT the girl genius hacker and her plucky token sidekick who could have been cut from the movie because they were totally useless and unimportant? *sarcasm*

To the person who mentioned the CGI cost,they should have made the movie like they made FF the sprits within.

I'm glad to see you all have ripped apart this idiotic statement prior to my arrival.

It was called Transformers for a reason, after all.

Um...I thought they wanted Transformers to be a sucessful movie franchise...why would they want to model it after a movie that wasn't? :grin:

Don't tell me people liked the giant fighting robots more than the annoying squeaking squishies? No Way!

Hasbro will be happy that people liked Bumblebee most, he has been the focus of their advertising and toys. Not like any other bot or con had a chance though, Bumblebee was the only one to get any decent amount of screen time.

Absolutely right. I think Hollywood went in the wrong direction trying and make Shia and Megan Fox into the stars of the movie. They did this not only through the script writing but also through the publicity.

hopefully this will help them decide less humans and more bots for tf2. and no characters that tansform into robots and die the next 10 minutes of the mvie like bonecrusher and brawl

Well, that may be but Ifor one watch Transformers for the humans!!!

I hate robot heavy episodes, and don't get me started when they start doing otherthings besides talk about feelings and teamwork...

And this is worth of an article? How is this news? thats like saying people like Darth Vader in Star Wars.

Must be a slow bloody news day if this is what the papers are reporting. What next? Science determines that you stop breathing when you die?

humph sounds to me poeple who write these articals are not fans of transformes series they write stuff that the ordainy transformers fans know or they just need something to fill up the paper, or magazines full of articals since they cant think of anything else to new add in the news section just to make money

Well d'uh! The human cast didn't even have action figures made for them which IMHO was a mistake. No real extra exposure outside the movie.

What the hell do toys have to do with this? The humans aren't unpopular because they didn't get toys.
