I don't see it. I sure as heck don't think it. You just have an opinion that's different to mine. Doesn't make you wrong. Doesn't make me wrong either. Makes us human.
People seem to have trouble grasping that concept.

That's the thing on both side, no one wants to hear the others opinion. But hey, y'all wanna give ol jack ass Bay Boy your hard earned money so he can keep tea bagging you with wrecking ball sized testicles(what vehicle on Devastator had wrecking balls? Oh that's right, none, Bay told the animators to do it cuz he thought it was funny. This is your director.) I for one refuse. And god forbid me from doing anything but unconditionally loving the drek that Bay continues to crap down the movie going public's throat.
Oh, and to answer your question on what else do we have? How's about nearly 30 years of fiction in cartoon and comic form? Yeah, I'll be watching and reading that, and not just the dreaded GEEWUN(god forbid any Transformers fan likes that, makes us elitist tools).

Funny response since the people who hate the films are the first to show up and tell those who enjoyed them that they're stupid and wrong for doing so. Pulling the persecution card for your viewpoint is like Tim Tebow recently getting mad he's not praised for being Christian while Jason Collins got praised for coming out.

Just a typical knee jerk reaction for those who love the movies unconditionally love them to anyone who has a differing opinion. Am I being persecuted? Sweet Jesus, it's an internet forum, I'm not so petty. Whatever. Done here. Continue on, so y'all can have the last word.

I mean hell, the ads for all 3 TF films make them seem like they're these great, dramatic sci-fi action films where the entire world's at stake, but the dialog and characters, even when in the middle of this oh so dramatic plot, acting like they're on South Park or in American Pie just doesn't work well, at least not for me.

xyl360 wrote:Agreed, in fact, out of all the human characters in the films, they were the best by far in my opinion. Had the movies just been about the military (those guys) fighting alongside the Autobots to defeat the invading Decepticons, that would have made for some great films in my opinion, and after seeing the first film, I'd hoped that that's exactly what they were going to do with the sequels. Sadly it wasn't meant to be.
xyl360 wrote:Hopefully with an action star like Mark Wahlberg in the mix we'll get something more along those lines this time. He plays the role of soldier well, and can definitely pull off funny one-liners without killing the dramatic tone of a serious film (though he can play a total goof well too, I just hope they don't go that route for TF4).
