Just goes to show what is possible when you make a movie for more than just the fandom. This movie was popular with moms promoting it for their kids to watch from what I have read about it. The fandom should be proud and all the supporters of it should take a bow and be in awe of its accomplishments with its popularity and with the toys success unlike other summer films whose toy lined are collecting dust on the shelves. Need not to be mentioned which ones as they are fairly obvious. It beat out others movies without the use of steroids. Oops my bad. That is another thread altogether different on a sports forum I belong to too.

Longs for the days of G1 where we only had to worry about Megatron, Soundwave and Laserbeak wanting to be Autobots, Swoop calling himself Tracks and Slingshot calling himself Slingslot!

Why is 26th of all time a slap in the face? That's a pretty amazing accomplishment and shows just how awesome we already know this franchise is. I doubt Bay and Spielberg consider it a slap in the face...

He´s refering to those who said the movie would be a massive fail.

Wow. It seems people are trying to atagonize someone...real classy folks. Alex Kingdom is a major TF fan and TFers the movie being profitable doesnt make him a pariah...
Now he might have been wrong about his box office estimates.
I did not like the movie, at all. Yet I do not consider its financial success a slap in the face. It is because how much money a movie makes has absolutely no bearing on how much I like a film. Really box office bank is something I could care less about unless I really want a sequel. The fact that alot of people love the film is great for them. I am not just saying that either.

Yes, lets not knock Alex for his thoughts on the movie or whats its earnings would be. He stuck true to himself and long after the movie was out still stuck with his original thoughts. He didnt get wishy washy after the movie and flop back and forth like I've seen some people do.

2 things
1.I said, yah, where is alex kingdom? as I haven't seen a posdt from him in a while and
2. do you guys think bay will ruin transformers 2 by making megatron the aircarft carrier he wanted. I think it sould be ether a new character, titalwave(please be this),soundwave(some parts make laserbeak, ravage, ratbat, beatbox, and squaktalk), or shockwave.
