I actually love these videos, Film Brain is really funny and I have been watching his Bad Movie Beatdown series for a while. In which he goes through bad movies and points out all the flaws in a usually hilarious way.

Anyway, his newest video is this forum's favourite bad movie: Revenge of the Fallen. Have fun, kiddies! It's actually quite funny.

Hopefully Part Two will be up soon.

Wow. I made it through about a 3rd of that. RotF was definitely not the best and brightest, but this guy is annoying. Maybe it's just the British accent. Wasn't funny at all.

I freaking refuse.

Kid, you get WAY too butthurt. He's reviewed movies I liek before, it's still funny and I had to admit all his points were valid.

The way he speaks is really annoying. He's mildly funny and does have some valid points, but a number of them were criticism for the sake of it.

Ummm, way to be about 2 yrs late!

Ok, if he's going to review a movie........ perhaps he should pay attention. (I'm just saying it helps)

yes, 5 robots go down to get Megs, The Doc pops out (equals six) they kill a little one, bring megs online.....thus equals six again. Fail for his lack of attention.

His question of why would a guy like teenage (college) girls... Fail again on his part.

His questions...why does the audience need to know this and that about where Megs is and the shard...... because they do! or there is questions. He then goes on to want elaboration on pretenders. Why does he want elaboration on this, if he didn't want it on the alspark shard? Fail again for his lack of thinking before speaking.

His statement, why didn't the pressure affect the robots that went down to recover megs? Maybe pressure doesn't affect the robots? Obviously space doesn't nor does landing on earth in meteor mode? So....why would being deep in water?

Yes, it's called Transformers so they play on Primes death but a little differently.

There were better points to bring up. The only one I thought he did ok with was the saying goodbye to bumblebee. He isn't terrible, just needs to do a little more research first. He even said it was his first time since he saw it in theaters. so.....obviously lack of reviewing it didn't help his part.

ROTF wasn't the greatest movie by any means, but this guy needs to
1. pay attention before reviewing a movie and do a little homework on the subject.
2. Think before he speaks.
3. review what he does before he post it.

I can't believe I sat and watched the whole thing, but I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt. (Fail on my part)

I refuse to watch this too, but for different reasons.

When RotF came out he made a favorable review. He was pretty much brow beaten by his fellow reviewers on That Guy With The Glasses into going back on that reivew and saying he hated the film anyway. I refuse to watch a review made by someone who's presented opinion was forced upon them by disgruntled, butt hurt colleagues.

Also Starscream GaGa, posting this won't change the minds of anyone on these forums who like RotF. Just saying.

P.S.

I did enjoy the ROTF.

It did have holes in it. What sci-fi movie doesn't, and looking forward to DOTM

I was in a heated debate in another thread that most of the plot holes boil down to poor observation on the viewer's part. Short of Wheelie's dissapearence and the bizzare geography of Egypt in the finale there's not much in the way of plot holes.

I'm not saying huge things.

like, how does a bright yellow robot get next to sam unnoticed when 15 decepticons where looking for him? (didn't notice him isn't going to fly)

Wheelie making it through security at the airport?

a few others, but nothing huge. I did like it though. And need to watch both again soon before watching DOTM.

Well that was whole other arguement in the same thread I reference. Somehow when RotF has small flaws, it's a huge unforgivable sin. But when other films have just as many flaws (I used Die Hard as an example) it's perfectly fine. I'd love some internal consitancy when people try to badmouth this film.

He's annoying. The voice made me want to kill my computer. *shudders*

Heh, it wasn't bad.

Which was in another thread which was locked because it went off topic, so don't bring it up here.

Not my intention. This is a Transformers forum and this is a comedy video about the Transformers film. Learn to laugh at yourselves for once, kid.

Why do I feel a "HA! See? ROTF was a bad movie!" argument brewing?

No, that's not why this thread was created...

It's just a fun video, we all know the (many) flaws of the movie, but the video just points them out for the sake of comedy, NOT to flame it.

And you should learn to avoid insulting remarks when addressing others. The mods may not like it. Just a warning, ya dig?

Oh, I'm so certian of your honesty in this regard.

Oh, my friend, you haven't had the full Seibertron Live Action Films Forum experience yet...
I've seen flames come out of innocent threads many times.

It's hard to do anything on this forum with Capt. Failure lurking around trying to start up arguments with anyone who doesn't love ROTF...

Seriously, Failure, watch the video, or don't bother posting. If you can't sit back and have fun, then there's no point being here, right? As I said, I loved Wolverine and I still found his video for it really funny. Stop taking ROTF insults as a personal insult to you.

Behave yourself. The more you post the more you call names (your fondness if tossing around "kid" as an insult) and post flame bait as above. I'd curb your eagreness to start a fight before you burn too many bridges.

Actually I don't use kid as an insult. It's just a verbal quirk of mine and always has been.
And I'm not trying to argue, you are, god you even brought up an argument from a closed thread... Look, I didn't mean to personally insult you by posting a relevant TF video. You don't have to watch it, you don't have to like it, you don't have to post in the thread. I don't want to argue again with you, so just quit trying to start stuff. It's you getting personal, not me.

It's too late to claim the moral high ground here, I'm afraid. You start a thread you know will cause a flame war, and when people who are tired of the same old "RotF sucks deal with it lol" bullcrap you like to spout don't want to hear it (as it's our right to voice such) you jump down their throat. Then you try to backtrack insults as a verbal tick(try harder please) ontop of calling me out personally, which is blatant flame baiting.

Here's some friendly advice. Hop out of this hole before it's too deep.

Now if you'll excuse me I have better things to do with my time than argue pointlessly with the likes of you.

Okay, I looked over the reported messages and I'm not even sure why this was reported.

Everyone is taking this way to seriously. These beatdown videos are made to entertain. No one ever whines about AVGN or The Guy With the Glasses.

I want everyone to cool it and just have fun with this or I will have to do a little more.

IDK if I should watch it. I'm still depressed from the last "review" of ROTF I watched...and that was when the movie first came out.

It's not bad Sly if you go into it knowing he only watched the movie twice and didn't pay attention to the movie, and it's his second review on the movie, the first a positive, and then this a negative
