Bull crap!
Come on guys, seriously. Am I the only one to have to say this.
We've been played. The entire franchise has been secreted on. I cannot believe you guys still want to see another Hollywood movie about The Transformers.
Dotm was simply appalling, it was a mess. I was so disappointed from that s**t movie that I didn't even bother to see it again, and that is saying something, I saw 1 and 2, at least 3 times in theatres, and that's not counting it's other iterations.
I am a tf fan. I acknowledge many of you are more fans then i am. But in terms of credibility, I have it, so allow me to speak my mind before you jump to a flame war.
Dotm could have been a tremendous film, it had all the basics laid out. Who here did not feel goosebumps when they saw Cybertron in that first scene? At last we saw it, and they left it behind, to only destroy it at the end. Forcing the notion that Earth is better than cybetron. I freakin love cybertron, I miss it so much. We never get to see it, and when we do ,they erase it from existence. (I'm assuming it's gone by the way, self evident that it kind of imploded upon itself, with no evidence elsewhere that it survived)...(I'm also sticking strictly the movies by Bay, nothing more, no novels, comics, or any other arcs). I don't even know where to start, they killed every single decepticon, actually, Optimus killed every one. He was insane! He went on a killing spree rampage. Too much if you ask me. He was more like a murderer. Megatron saved his life and ops kills him without a second thought. All Optimus cared about was stupid earthlings. Sure as viewers we are humans, but come on, you doomed your entire race Prime. Sure the action sequences were awesome, and sometimes unnecessary, but it didn't make sense. They hyped Shockwave so much, and he did nothing. They hyped every one, and they did nothing.
Disney movies have better structure than this. It was mindless, with some witty comments here and there at best, TFM trilogy that is.
There was no need for Sentinel Prime to fight Optimus, he is the autobot leader. What does this teach people and kids, just kill every one and you will be ok? If you disagree with your boss/leader, KILL THEM. If he's the Einstein of your race, maybe you should listen to the mofo. Einstein came up with the theory of relativity and many more. Do we throw that down the toilet, if he says, no I think we should do this.
There is soooooo much I can talk about this movie, so many mistakes, and broken dreams by fans. They broke our dreams in first movie, when they did not show enough transformers footage. In second one, they pulled a stupid trick , where they kill and resurrect the same characters. Op and megs, It's as if they couldn't handle the responsibility of killing Prime, so to appease the kids/parents/ etc, they bring him back at the end. Believe it or not, killing prime , and megs in the G1 movie , was what gave it substance and what gave it strength.
I'm not just a g1 fan. I would want the movie to portray more of the magic of transformers, not what some big shot director thought of it. He said the 3rd film will be completely different, it wasn't , it was the same. In fact it was worse. when I thought Megatron lived in the end of rotf, he will be a key player in 3, and we will see finally decepticons at their best. But nope, that did not happen.
Hell, a movie about minicons would be better.
Where I'm getting at this is, I do not want a 4th movie, you've had your chance. You blew it big time. I don't want to be hyped up for another year to be disappointed, or have a reaction of "meh", it didn't blow me away.
LEAVE TRANSFORMERS ALONE!!!!!! Let the fans make the movie, cause obviously you are doing a mediocre job.
We said the designs are too radical, but we grew to like them. The colors are inaccurate, so we accepted them. The characters are way of their original, we sort of accepted that too. But to completely, kill off every character we cared about (Decepticons, yes we care about them, just as much as we care about Autobots, since they are the ying to the yang) that I do not accept.
Maybe do an animated film, that will give you more freedom and leave the stupid humans out of it. Why is TFP so good, since there is focus on the freaking TFs. Why is TFA good, since there is FOCUS ON THE Transformers, and it was pure genius that they made Sari tech organic. WHY IS BW SO GOOD? SINCE....repeat after me....FOCUS ON THE TRANSFORMERS CHARACTERS.
sigh, I'm just angry at this whole movie thing. To hear there is a 4th one , and by Bay, pisses me off. Bay is only good for patriotic American films, and Tfs have nothing to do with patriotism, they're not American, Jamaican or w/e. They're from Cybertron. You have your themes mixed up Bay. You want to make a movie about America, don't involve TFs, even if the TF is an American franchise, it just looks cheap. Just like Obi Wan in Revenge of the Sith yelling to Anakin "This is about DEMOCRACY". HAHAHAH I did not know democracy existed in a galaxy a long long time ago.
SAY NO TO TF4
If it's a different director, maybe even a reboot, I might consider it, but honestly
fool me once shame on you
you fool me you can't get fooled again.
Plz tf fans, wake up, demand higher quality products, otherwise Tf will always be a mindless franchise designed simply to sell their toys.
Compare TF with Full metal alchemist for example, do the movies even compare to the story of fma? or even, compare Tf as a movie trilogy to Terminator 2, or even compare it to the Dark Knight.
This was all an IMO, and a response to Tyrese.
Don't even think of making a new movie, I don't care how much money. How about making Thundercats, go ruin that, or ruin power rangers or something. Enough damage has been done, let us repair ourselves and move on this era of shame. Ask yourselves this, if you could make a Tf movie what goes in your mind?
I admit Bay did many contributions to the franchise, more realistic transformers, a different megs, starscream, robots, designs, etc. He brought back Cullen, and even Welker. But playing time is over kids, now let's get serious ok?
Thank you for reading
