If this film had been the first live action Transformers, I think this would have been extremely well received. Sadly the oversaturation of Bayformers may have poisoned the well, so to speak.

Like you said about "greatness," "better" is also subjective. You think it was better than Bayformers. I don't. That's the good thing about opinions. We can have different ones. This movie is the first TF film I don't care to ever see again. And going by the box office, I'm not the only one. I'm not saying it's horrible, but I don't think it was good. The story and character development was on par with Bayverse, but it was missing the big action pieces. I wouldn't have minded that if the story was better.AllNewSuperRobot wrote:Nevertheless It is better than BayformersRodimus Prime wrote:Or maybe people didn't like it because it wasn't as great as some fans think it was.AllNewSuperRobot wrote:Ultimately it is a shame.

I've been saying this as well. Except I wouldn't want them to be limited to IDW content, as I'm not really the biggest fan of IDW, a couple stories here-and-there maybe, but there are over 30 years of lore from various other animated series, and comics to draw from.
As much as I enjoy the DC animated films that come out at the rate of 3 per-year, one of the biggest weaknesses IMHO is that they have an ongoing narrative based on New 52. They do break form this at times, which is great, but the new 52 stuff has been pretty *meh*. Death of Superman & Reign of the Supermen would have been SO MUCH BETTER if they had kept the original story/setting, and not tried to tie it to the New 52 version.
The same could be said for Transformers. Give us some new stories set in the original Sunbow animated continuity. Some Japanese stories, something from Marvel Comics, Dreamwave, Beast Wars, IDW...etc... a little form each would be great over time.

That's more what I was getting at with past comic arcs, though would they be able to touch the dreamwave stuff? Does the rights to the DW material revert to IDW when they got the licence?
Also I assumed the death of supes was the original story retold, had no idea it was based of a new 52 thing.
Back to Bee though, I don't understand why people keep assuming it's because it hasn't made enough money as its profitable now and there's still Japan to go. We're getting close to Chinese New year afterall...
