"Michael Bay, we owe you and apology
And you owe me $15 for Transformers Rise of the Beasts"
Go to the 9:30 minute mark if you want to see the joke.
Of course, it turns out ROTB was not a film made by Michael Bay.

I love Colbert, but as much geek cred as he has concerning Tolkien and Star Wars, I doubt he 'gets' Transformers any more than Kevin Smith does.
While The Last Knight's largely forgotten outside our circles, it would've made a better cheap-shot punchline in this context. I feel like someone still owes me for brain trauma I got from seeing TLK in the theater.

Colbert was amazingly funny as a side-act on the Daily Show back in the day. Now he just isn't funny.

At least he didn't fall as far as his Canadian counterpart Rick Mercer, who was the funniest cast member of This Hour Has 22 Minutes before going off to start a band called...riiiiiiight.o.supreme wrote:Colbert was amazingly funny as a side-act on the Daily Show back in the day.

You got that right. Drinking methanol doesn't kill as many brain cells as that cinematic concussion does.

Totally agree. I thought a similar thing when I watched his monologue. Speaking of Tolkien, I notice Colbert is VERY silent on "Rings of Power". He speaks to the actors when they are guests when he has to but only keeps conversations about the show very brief and then never says a word about it.
